Halfway to Heaven — Three Levels of Pure Smoky Mountain Bliss
Perched in the mountains between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Halfway to Heaven lives up to every bit of its name. With sweeping Smoky Mountain views, three private levels each with their own bedroom and bath, and more amenities than you can shake a hiking stick at, this cabin is the kind of place that turns a good vacation into an unforgettable one.
A Layout Built for Privacy & Connection
Whether you're traveling with family, friends, or another couple, Halfway to Heaven's three-level design gives everyone their own space while keeping the group together where it counts. No one's fighting over the bathroom. No one's crowding the living room. Everyone gets their own retreat — and everyone comes together around the pool table, the hot tub, and the mountain views.
Lower Level — Where the Fun Begins
Enter the cabin on the lower level and you're immediately greeted by a spacious game room with a full-size pool table, flat screen TV, and a comfortable sitting area — perfect for rainy mountain afternoons or late-night competitions. A queen bedroom with its own full bath is tucked away on this level, along with the patio where the hot tub waits to soak away the miles after a day on the trails. Up for a little friendly competition outside? Fire up a game of horseshoes in the yard.
Main Floor — Views That Stop You in Your Tracks
Head upstairs to the heart of the cabin. Large windows frame gorgeous Smoky Mountain scenery from the living area, and an electric fireplace keeps things cozy when the mountain air turns cool. The fully equipped kitchen makes home-cooked mountain meals easy, and the dining area is the perfect gathering spot before heading out to explore. Step out onto the wraparound covered deck and let those rocking chairs do their thing — mornings here with a cup of coffee are something else entirely. The second queen bedroom with its own full bath sits just off the main living area.
Upper Level — The King's Suite
Save the best for last. The top-floor king master suite is a destination all its own — a luxurious retreat featuring a large jacuzzi tub, sitting area perfect for curling up with a book, and not one but two private porches. Wake up here and you'll understand exactly why this cabin is called Halfway to Heaven.
Minutes from Everything
Dollywood is just 18 minutes away. The Island in Pigeon Forge is under 20 minutes. Anakeesta and downtown Gatlinburg are a quick 19-minute drive. You're close enough to everything but far enough away to feel like you've truly escaped — and guests consistently rave about spotting bears right from the cabin, which never gets old.
Halfway to Heaven sleeps up to 6 guests and includes free Wi-Fi, Smart TVs in every room, washer/dryer, charcoal grill, and free parking. No pets. No smoking.
4-wheel drive or chains required November through March in the event of inclement weather.
Three levels. Three bedrooms. One incredible Smoky Mountain escape — book Halfway to Heaven today.

Halfway To Heaven is clean and comfortable. The amenities are excellent. The staff at Heartland Rentals were quick to address any issues that we had. We enjoyed the location close to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.

Great Views and Comfortable Accommodations
Stayed 4 nights with our 3 sons ages 8,11 and 13. Really enjoyed the house and would book it again if we were to come back. House was clean and well appointed with beautiful views. The decks and outdoor space made the exterior as comfortable as the interior. Easy to get to local attractions and parks, but well removed from the busyness. Internet was solid which was a big plus. Heartland was easy to work with.
One area for improvement would be kitchen lighting.
Yes, I would recommend this vacation rental to a friend or family member!
I enjoyed the Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Show attraction most.

AMAZING VIEWS!!!!
We always stay with Heartland Rentals while in the area, and this, by far was the best cabin yet!!!! The views are true to the name of the cabin.
It is a far drive and 4wd is needed in winter to reach the VERY top of the mountain!!!

I only need 1 word. Amazing
The cabin was everything we hoped it would be. I have used Heartland for several years now and will not consider using any other cabin rental agency. The views were spectacular. We saw 6 bears at the cabin alone. The peaceful and tranquil surroundings made this trip especially perfect for all 3 couples. Already looking forward to next year and another of life's great adventures. Thank you heartland staff for making our stay perfect!

The cabin was beautiful, the staff super friendly.
We enjoyed out stay. There were times it seemed the air had a hard time keeping up with the heat of the day. But, it would finally catch up! We would definitely use this company again.
