The Cabin Three Horizons Retreat is a lakefront lodge built for groups who want their own private stretch of Douglas Lake. The open-concept main level pairs a granite-island kitchen with a light-filled living room framed by mountain and lake views. Downstairs, a game room with air hockey and foosball opens onto a screened porch, and multiple decks give every level its own spot to take in the water.
Where You'll Be Overlooking Douglas Lake just outside Sevierville, you're 23.7 miles from Dollywood, 25.1 miles from Pigeon Forge, and 34.1 miles from Gatlinburg and the entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The lake sits on a dam, so water levels fluctuate seasonally, typically lower from September through May.
Where You'll Sleep: 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 10 โข Primary Bedroom (Main Level): King bed, private bath with stand-up shower and separate jacuzzi tub โข Guest Bedroom 1 (Main Level): Queen bed, access to a full bath with shower/tub combo โข Guest Bedroom 2 (Lower Level): Queen bed, private bath with stand-up shower โข Guest Bedroom 3 (Lower Level): King bed โข Game Room: Queen sleeper sofa
Things To Do Nearby * Dollywood & Dollywood's Splash Country (23.7 mi) * The Island in Pigeon Forge, Titanic Museum, WonderWorks (23.2 to 25.1 mi) * Downtown Gatlinburg, Ober Mountain, Anakeesta (34.1 mi)
IMPORTANT โข Please note that while the property does have a garage, it will not be accessible to guests during their stay. โข Please note that water levels in the area are typically not high enough to accommodate boats until late June at the earliest. There is no boat launch available at the property. Guests will need to use the nearest public boat ramp, located approximately 3 miles from the house, to launch their vessel. From there, they may navigate to the propertyโs dock; however, the canal may not be deep enough to support certain types of boats (e.g., V-hull vessels). We recommend planning accordingly.
Good To Know * Free parking for 5 to 6 vehicles, RVs welcome * Lake water levels are typically too low for boating until late June and fluctuate seasonally due to the dam * Bears are native to the area. Please don't leave food or trash outside.
House Rules * Check-in after 4 PM ยท Check-out before 10 AM * Renting guest must be 25 or older * Do not exceed the maximum capacity for this property * No parties or events * No smoking * No pets allowed under any circumstance * Most properties do not have room for travel trailers or pull-behind trailers

"We do air b&bs a lot. This one ranks right up at the top! House was well stocked. Very comfortable and we loved the dock and lake toys! Although, the pics on your listing do not do justice to the actual views! They are stunning! The host was great. There was an AC issue on the day we were arriving. We were notified about it ahead of time and it was fixed before we got there. We will definitely be back!"

Hi Patricia Donovan, Thank you for the great review. Iโm glad Three Horizons Retreat ranked right up at the top of your stays and that the house was well stocked and comfortable. Itโs wonderful the dock, lake toys, and the views exceeded your expectations. Iโm also pleased our team notified you about the AC and had it fixed before your arrival. Weโd love to host you again next time youโre in the area. Safe travels,

"The house was perfect for my familyโs trip to Douglas lake. There were 10 of us (6 adults and 4 children.) we had plenty of room for everyone. The house was clean and the inside was well maintained. The house is currently for sale and the outside needed some landscaping attention but that didnโt affect us or our stay. The views from the back porch are amazing overlooking the cove of the lake. We enjoyed sitting around the propane fire pit on the back porch every evening. We had 3 boats and they all fit perfectly at the floating dock located on the property. The kids enjoyed using the paddle board that came with the house. The bedrooms were comfortable and everyone said they slept well. Only recommendation is one of the bedrooms in the basement that has the bathroom attached does not have locking doors for the bedroom. It does not effect anything but if the person staying in that room wanted privacy it could effect that. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils, pans, pots etcโฆ the washer and dryer are newer and worked great. The hot tub fit 4 adults comfortably and was really nice to soak and drink the morning coffee and look at the clouds coming off the mountains. The driveway at the road is a bit tight because of the mailbox and the neighbors fence and we had some slight difficulty backing our boat trailers in especially with a long bed truck. But there is plenty of room at the bottom of the drive for 3 boat trailers and 3 trucks. We would definitely stay again!"

"Three Horizons Retreat was an amazing place to stay. We had 3 couples in our group and the home offers plenty of space to enjoy. The views were awesome and the back deck with gas fireplace was one of our favorite spots. We enjoyed the hot tub and playing games in the evening at the large dining table. Within a short drive there are many fun places to visit. If you plan to visit the area, this is the place to stay!"

"Justin was extremely responsive and so welcoming. The home was exactly what we needed to provide additional space for our family Christmas celebration. The rooms were spacious, beds were comfortable, the house was clean, kitchen was large and had plenty of pots/pans/Tupperware, etc. and the kids had so much fun playing air hockey and watching Christmas movies together on the oversized sectional. Will be back again for sure!"

"We had a wonderful stay at Justinโs place. The location was absolutely beautiful and the small town was very charming. The house was very clean and spacious. It has everything you need to cook and relax. Close enough to town to still see the tourist areas but far enough away to feel very peaceful. Would definitely stay again!"

"Justin always responded within minutes! I had an error on my behalf with the dates of our visit and Justin was able to accommodate the date change. Our 3 children enjoyed the air hockey table, while we were able to relax in the hot tub. The dock was conveniently steps away from the house. The public boat ramp was just a couple miles away. For such a large home the cleaning was immaculate. Felt just like home! Will definitely be booking again in the future!"

All amenities that would be needed for a stay away from home were there. Plenty of games for the kids and family to enjoy and extra towels to play in the lake. If we are ever close to Douglas Lake again, we will definitely be booking this house!"
