Stayed ay Above the Clouds for a week in February of this year. Excellent cabin. Wonderful views. Could not have been nicer. My wife and I took my 90 year old Mother and we all had a great time. My Mom uses a walker and wheelchair and everything was perfect for her. It is a steep drive up the mountain and our GPS was not exactly spot on. When it said we had arrived, we had to go further up the mountain to the next group of cabins. Once we arrived, what a view. Had snow while we were there and it was beautiful. Fortunately, the snow melted off the roads before we had to go down to Sevierville. Connie was great to work with. Highly recommended!!

We enjoyed our stay at Above the Clouds. It is a beautiful cabin and furnished with just what you need. The owners are very sweet and are there to help with whatever you need. The view is absolutely breathtaking. Hot tub and pool table were a hit! We woke up to snow and thankful Connie worked with us to make sure we made it down the mountain safely. Thank you for letting us enjoy your cabin. We can’t wait to come back!

Everything about this stay was just amazing! The views are breathtaking and the cabin was so cozy! Connie is also an amazing host! We had an issue while staying at the cabin (not related to the cabin) and she, along with the maintenance man Gene, helped us out immensely! We don’t know what we would have done without them. Definitely would visit again and recommend to all my friends!

This cabin was very clean and had a well stocked kitchen. The dining table seated all 9 of us easily. The view was amazing. The accessible bathrooms met our needs very nicely. Our family had a really fun family getaway here. Thank you for sharing your lovely cabin.

This cabin is perfect! Spacious, clean, and fully equipped. The views....oh my! Spectacular! The swing on the porch was my hubby’s favorite spot. Staying in Wears Valley was relaxing and charming.
Yes, paved road and flat parking spaces. Room for 2 cars and we can advise on where to park a 3rd nearby!
If you cancel your reservation on or before 30 days prior to your planned arrival date, we will refund your reservation deposit less a 20% cancellation fee. If you cancel within 30 days, we will refund the cleaning fee and pet fee (if applicable). If we are able to rebook the property for all or part of that period, we will refund the rental amount or prorated share based on the new booking. You may choose to purchase travel insurance separately.
You need to purchase a plan with an optional “Cancel For Any Reason” benefit as the travel warnings are now foreseen.
If your state declares a stay at home order or if Sevier County, TN restricts short term rentals for your reservation dates prior to your stay, a credit will be given to a future stay through December 2021, excluding major holidays. If you prefer a refund, it will be less 30%.
