Here are five of the top benefits of choosing a cabin with an outdoor fire pit:
1. Perfect for Romance
Fire pits help to create the ideal ambiance for a couples escape in Gatlinburg.

2. Stay Outdoors Longer
When you stay at one of our cabins with fire pits in Gatlinburg TN, you’ll be able to spend more time in the great outdoors. Evenings in the spring, early summer, and fall can get a bit chilly, but your fire pit will keep you warm into the latest hours of the night. Taking a vacation is all about having fun on your own schedule, and a fire pit makes it possible to keep the party going until you’re ready to turn in.
3. Great for Cooking Dinner
Of course, all of our cabins in Gatlinburg come with fully equipped kitchens. For something a little different, however, you can cook dinner over an open flame. A fire pit is perfect for roasting hot dogs, preparing kebabs, making popcorn, or a variety of other tasty dishes and treats. For fresh ingredients, swing by a local grocery store or visit the Gatlinburg Farmers Market on Saturday mornings at 849 Glades Road (mid May thru early October).
4. Campfire Fun for the Whole Family
Having a fire pit on vacation will give you the chance to do some traditional campfire activities with your family. Telling ghost stories, singing songs, and playing games like “telephone” or “twenty questions” are all great ways to spend an evening during your getaway in Gatlinburg.
5. Make S’mores the Old Fashioned Way
While making s’mores in a fireplace or on the grill can be fun, nothing compares to the real deal. Roasting marshmallows over a fire pit is an integral part of any summer vacation, and your kids will have a blast doing it just steps away from their cabin. You can’t go wrong with graham crackers, but if you want to try something new, consider putting the melted chocolate and marshmallow inside of an Oreo sandwich cookie to make a “s’moreo”!
