In the Spring of 2007 we decided to turn what was once a small, vinyl-sided house into a luxury cabin, and so we did--in less than four months! Not only did we add 1500 sq. feet of living space and turn the basement into a man-cave of sorts (complete with a Bose system and theater-style seats), but we also remodeled every inch of the pre-existing home. We, likewise, made sure that we capitalized on the AMAZING mountain/lake views and the peaceful, wooded surroundings by building a 1200 sq. ft. porch as well as a fire pit outback--perfect for roasting hot dogs in the Summer and smores in the Winter!

Because we knew we’d be living in the cabin for an extended period, we decided to avoid the typical moose-head-black-bear-all-pine-wood-extravaganza so often seen in log cabins, and we instead opted to update the look with orange-peel painted walls, hand-carved oak flooring and mossy green cabinetry in the kitchen. Fortunately, the antiquated country feel we were going for paid off! We believe that our slightly modern spin on the log cabin is the right balance between the refreshingly natural getaway we all hope for and the modern amenities we all love to enjoy!

We immensely enjoyed Sandy Ridge Cabin as our home for the few years that we lived there and so did many of our family members and friends. Now, it’s your turn! Let Sandy Ridge Cabin be your home away from home. Whether you’re simply looking for a nice place to crash with the kids after a hard day’s work at Dollywood, or you’re just looking for an oasis of rest and relaxation, Sandy Ridge Cabin will undoubtedly meet your every need! Our country cabin is warm and comfortable, cozy and familiar. So, come on in. Welcome home!
