How to Plan a Surprise Romantic Getaway in a Gatlinburg Cabin

What makes Gatlinburg a swoon-worthy romantic destination? Ancient mountains, serene natural beauty, and indulgent, pampering cabins for two! Impress your sweetheart with a surprise getaway to Gatlinburg. Here’s how. 

Set aside the dates.

The trickiest part of the surprise is being sure your honey takes time off work, or doesn’t make other plans! Plan a decoy “trip” to see relatives or friends who are in on the surprise. Or make plans for a weekend of couples chores, then reveal you’re heading to a secret destination instead. 

Pick the perfect location. 

You’ve already chosen Gatlinburg, so you’re guaranteed breathtaking views! Now find a cabin close to attractions you know will thrill your sweetheart. Stay near Ober Mountain ski resort for winter sports. Visit artisan workshops when you stay near the leafy Arts and Crafts Community. Pick a cabin close to downtown, if your honey loves restaurants and shops.

Pamper your beloved with luxuries.

Gatlinburg cabins relax you with extras like soothing hot tubs, gorgeous fireplaces, in-cabin movie theaters, private swimming pools, entertaining game rooms and more. Search our cabin listings by “Features” to see amenities so special, you’ll talk about your getaway for years to come.

Look for a romantic bedroom.

Go all out on romance with a jetted tub by the side of the bed, a fireplace in the room, a handcrafted log bed, maybe all three! Check out these cozy, private one-bedroom cabins.

Make reservations for an intimate dinner.

Hold hands across the table. Sample each other’s luscious desserts. Share a bottle of Tennessee wine. Snag your reservation before you leave home, so you’re sure to get a table at one of Gatlinburg’s romantic restaurants. Try The Greenbrier, Crystelle Creek, or Red Oak Bistro.

Get tickets to a show.

Surprise your sweetie with a night on the town. Country fans can tap their toes to up-and-coming acts at Blake Shelton’s Ole Red. Ober Mountain’s stage hosts bluegrass, country and classic rock. The Iris Theater is home to magic and mind reading. 

Plan an unforgettable tour. 

Proclaim your love while you soar over Gatlinburg in an airplane or a hot air balloon! Air tours fly you over the city and the national park for unparalleled views. You can even book a special engagement flight!
