Mountain Jewel is a cozy upper-level studio retreat designed for couples and small families seeking a peaceful Smoky Mountain getaway near Douglas Lake. The studio features an open-concept layout with warm wood interiors, large windows, and beautiful mountain and seasonal lake views that create a bright and relaxing atmosphere.
Sleeping Area
The main studio space includes a comfortable king bed with a memory foam mattress, bedside lighting, and a Smart TV. The open layout creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere for relaxing after a day of exploring the Smokies. A twin-size futon/sofa bed is also available for an additional guest.
Hidden Kids’ Nook
One of Mountain Jewel’s most unique features is the hidden space-themed nook tucked inside the studio. Decorated with a fun solar system theme, this cozy area includes a cute teepee, soft lighting, bean bag chairs, and a relaxing hideaway space children especially enjoy.
Kitchenette & Dining
The studio includes a thoughtfully stocked kitchenette with a refrigerator, microwave, air fryer/oven combo, coffee maker, toaster, dishes, cookware, and a 2-burner stovetop for simple meal preparation. Guests especially enjoy cooking or sharing meals at the dining table beside the large picture window overlooking the mountains and seasonal lake views.
Bathroom
The private bathroom includes a shower, fresh towels, complimentary toiletries, and essentials for a comfortable stay.
Please note that the bathroom and shower area are cozy and compact, which is common in charming mountain cabin-style studios. Taller or larger guests may find the shower space more limited than in a standard hotel bathroom
Outdoor Space
Step outside onto the private balcony to enjoy peaceful mountain air, seasonal lake views, morning coffee, or evening sunsets. The quiet setting beside Douglas Lake offers a relaxing escape while still being conveniently close to Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Dollywood, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Access & Parking
Mountain Jewel is a single-story studio located on the second floor above the garage and is accessed via an exterior staircase. Guests have private keyless entry and dedicated parking nearby.
• 2 vehicles can be parked behind by the stairs to the studio
• 1 vehicle can be parked in front of the white garage door (shared parking; first-come, first-served)
• RV/trailer parking allowed on-site
Private Well Water System
The property is served by a private well water system with professionally maintained filtration equipment. Please notify us immediately if you notice any leaking faucets, running toilets, or unusual water issues, as even small leaks may cause major problems.
Septic System
The home operates on a septic system. To help protect the system, please flush toilet paper only and avoid flushing wipes, feminine products, paper towels, or food items.
Hot Water Capacity
Due to space limitations, the water heater has a moderate capacity. We recommend shorter showers, especially for larger groups. If hot water runs low, it typically reheats fairly quickly.
Outdoor Furniture & Cushions
The patio chair is exposed to the weather and can get wet or dirty easily, so we store the clean cushions and pillows in the storage container inside the unit, located next to the entrance door for guest to use.
Wildlife Awareness
Wildlife, including bears and raccoons, may occasionally be seen in the area. Please do not leave food or trash outside and always secure garbage in the bear-proof trash bins.
