Description
Tucked away in the peaceful setting of Wildflower Ridge, Ranger’s Retreat combines mountain charm, comfortable accommodations, and an exceptional screened porch designed for year-round enjoyment. Ideal for couples and small families, this inviting cabin provides a relaxing home base just a short drive from downtown Gatlinburg and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Inside, you’ll find a private king bedroom, a separate bunk room for children or additional guests, and a sleeper sofa in the living area. The open living space also features a stone fireplace, television, pool table, fully equipped kitchen, and convenient washer and dryer.
The spacious screened porch is one of the cabin’s standout features. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of the woods, it includes a wood-burning fireplace, television, built-in lounging bunks, rocking chairs, a porch swing, Connect Four game, ceiling fans, and warm string lighting. It’s an ideal place to enjoy morning coffee, watch a movie by the fire, play games with the family, or spend a quiet evening listening to nature without worrying about the weather.
After exploring hiking trails, local shops, and nearby attractions, return to soak in the private hot tub or settle in beside one of the fireplaces.

My husband and I have been really overworked and needed time unplugged together. This cabin was perfect! We enjoyed every minute. It was cozy and even with other cabins around it felt private. We had a lot of rain which made it even better being there just relaxing and enjoying our stay. Everything we needed was provided. It was clean, the bed was comfortable. I wish our stay was longer!
Sven L.
Very nice cabin. Great location in between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Enjoyed the nature. Bed was great. The cabin was clean. The air conditioning was working great which was needed with temps hitting 95 degrees several days. Be prepared for the drive up the mountain it could be challenging at night. For us, it helped solidify the feel of staying in the mountains. Overall it was a great stay and we would rent here again.
Steven R.

Jennifer S.
The Noah’s Ark cabin was cute, clean, and comfortable, just perfect for our anniversary getaway. It is conveniently located to all local attractions. They even were able to accommodate a last minute change in schedule. We really enjoyed the outdoor fireplace and screened in porch. We would definitely stay again.
DECKSTER L.
Noah\'s Ark was exceptionally clean. Loved everything about the cabin, especially the very private hot tub off the bedroom and the huge screened in porch. Would absolutely stay there again!!!
Tammy B.
Noah’s Ark was great! We would highly recommend renting from Smoky Mountain rentals again. The cabin was very clean and we had no issues at all. Check in and out was very easy and smooth! It’s located close to everything and you also get some free tickets to attractions when you book through them!
Crystella S.

Amanda M.
Our trip to Noah\'s Ark was wonderful! We had a slight issue with a beeping fire alarm, but we called the office, and they were extremely kind. It was fixed in no time! The cabin was clean, cozy, and had literally everything we needed. It was a wonderful and relaxing time. The hot tub was perfect and had wonderful views of the forest. The location was ideal! 10 minutes to Gatlinburg and 10 minutes to Pigeon Forge. We will be looking for some time to come back. Thank you for sharing this cabin with us! We truly enjoyed ourselves.

julia H.
Excellent! Everything was perfect and fit my wife and I and our 4 kids comfortably in the Noah’s ark cabin.
BENJAMIN J.
When you think about cabins in Gatlinburg you imagine a beautiful home tucked into the trees on the side of a mountain. This little cabin was all that and more. It is much bigger than advertised, and fit our family of four perfectly. Minutes from the hustle of both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg the cabin was the perfect place to unwind after hiking, visiting Dollywood or exploring the towns. Smoky Mountain Chalet Rentals certainly provides you with an affordable 5 Star experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone visiting this area.
Nicole M.
Loved every second. So quiet and relaxing. We even had bears in our yard 🙂
Janette G.
Wonderful cabin. Loved the screened in porch. Well equipped and very comfortable. An upgrade to the TP would be nice. ð

Great place to stay for our family. The cabin had everything we needed. Screened in porch is a nice added bonus. Best perk is we were able to bring our dogs.
Tim H.
Noah\'s Arc was the perfect cabin for our honeymoon. We especially enjoyed the screened porch with the fireplace. The kitchen was perfect for having breakfast while enjoying the mountain view through the large windows. We even got to watch a bear cub roaming int the woods while we drank our coffee. Great memories were made !<3

We had a fantastic time on our trip this past weekend as always. The cabin was perfect. We had wanted a cabin that was not very far up a mountain and so we emailed requesting suggestions. The cabin they recommended was perfect for what we wanted!

This is our third time staying at Noah’s Ark. Great cabin and location. Close to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The live bear walking around the area was definitely a plus.

Our cabin highlights were the hot tub, the pool table, and the screened in porch. The kitchen was well-stocked. The cabin was clean. Getting the access code on the day of our arrival was simple. We will definitely stay here again if in the area!

If you are looking for a secluded cabin with easy access to everything this is the one for you. We loved the screened porch with the outside fireplace and rockers. Enjoyed the hot tub on those cool autumn evenings and the pool table was fun. Can't wait to get back. Thanks so much.

We really enjoyed our first stay here at Noah's Ark. This is our first time in this area and it is absolutely beautiful. Our kids enjoyed seeing the mountains -- much different than our Florida flat land!

First time to this area and found the cabin secluded and quiet, which is what I was looking for. Also fun to be so close to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Thank you very much!

This is our 3rd year at Noah's Ark and it's always our first choice when visiting Gatlinburg. The location is fantastic between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge yet the cabin feels secluded and private. Love the screened in porch with the bunks, fireplace and rockers. We recommend Noah's Ark to all our friends and we will be back again next year. Thanks
