Frequently asked questions
What are check-in and checkout times?
Check-in is after 4:00 PM and checkout is by 11:00 AM. Most cabins have self check-in. Access instructions and the exact address are sent before arrival, once online check-in is complete.
Is booking on this website different from Airbnb or Vrbo?
Reservations made on this website are direct bookings with Vacay To The Smokies. If a reservation is made through Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia or another third-party platform, the terms, cancellation policy and payment conditions associated with that reservation apply.
Do I need to complete online check-in?
Yes. All reservations require completion of our secure online check-in before arrival, regardless of booking channel. The primary guest must complete and sign the form and provide a valid government-issued photo ID, current selfie for identity verification, and a valid payment method on file for incidentals. Completion is required before property access information is provided.
Will you text me about my stay?
Guests with existing reservations may receive texts from 865-375-8621 regarding online check-in, arrival information, property access and other important stay information.
Can I bring my dog?
Pets are welcome at our designated pet-friendly cabins with prior approval and a pet fee. Please crate pets when they're left unattended.
Are the cabins good for kids?
Our Firefly Bungalows welcome families and sleep up to 6. Several of the forest cabins are designed for couples and aren't suitable for children, so check each cabin's house rules.
Do I need a 4WD vehicle?
Some forest cabins are reached by mountain roads with steep or gravel sections. In winter weather, 4WD or snow chains may be needed. The Parkway bungalows are on regular town streets.
What is your cancellation policy?
For direct reservations, 50% of total booking charges will be refunded when cancellation is made more than 30 days before arrival. Cancellations made 30 days or less before arrival are non-refundable. Third-party reservations follow the cancellation policy associated with the booking platform.
