Huge windows, unobstructed mountain views, big studio, Pickleball Court, Firepit

The Nuthouse:
When you stay at The Nuthouse, you will experience the feeling of being secluded from Pigeon Forge while, in reality, you’re only 6 minutes away. The Nuthouse is perfect for your next trip to the Smokies. Surrounded by The Great Smoky Mountains, there are breathtaking views everywhere you look – even from all 3 oversized windows in your unit. This large, comfortable studio unit sleeps up to 2 guests. Relax downstairs on the front porch in the morning with your coffee while listening to the birds or on the front or side porch swings while enjoying the beauty of the mountains. At night, be mesmerized by the gorgeous sunset over the mountains in front of TML or up at the top of the property while enjoying a glass of wine. The Nuthouse is located in Tanner Manor Lodge (TML). There are 3 units in TML. The Nuthouse is an upstairs unit and you have your own entrance and do not share anything except for what is outside and a stairwell that goes to your unit. Downstairs is a unit called The Rustic Charm while across the hall from you upstairs is a unit called The Burrows. They have their own entrances as well and do not go through your unit to get to theirs. The Nuthouse is located on our property called The Mustard Seed Venue and has many amenities to keep you busy during your stay. If you have other family and friends who want to join you, this is the perfect location since The Mustard Seed (TMS) consists of 8 cabins that are all in walking distance of each other, but not on top of each other, 12 acres that you can walk around and multiple amenities to help provide you with a wonderful, relaxing stay. TMS is perfect for a Family Reunion or Destination Wedding (contact Kathryn for Wedding packages and information). We can sleep up to 66 guests overall on the property. We look forward to hosting you. Tanner Manor Lodge can sleep up to 20 guests in the 3 units and The Rustic Charm is our 2nd Wedding Venue Reception area where you can have weddings for 40 guests comfortably and 50 if you are a bit creative. All of TML is included in our wedding package called The Rustic Charm.

You will have space to park as many cars as necessary in front of the cabin.
