Enjoy Some Much Needed Peace And Quiet In This Charming Tennessee Tiny Cabin

Whenever life gets too busy and hectic, I find solace in the woods -- and my, we have some gorgeous forests in Tennessee! Spending a night or two going back to basics is a welcome "reset" from time to time, as it's always great to just get away and find a cabin in Tennessee. Well, there is a tiny little cabin in the woods and I dare say it just might be the best cabin rental in Newport, Tennessee. So when you are in need of a little rest and relaxation, head on over to the Tiny Owl for a weekend retreat in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee.

Take a trip into the forest and be surrounded by trees when you stay at the Tiny Owl. If I could sum up this cabin in one word, it would be "relaxing." There is just something refreshing about getting away from all of the man-made things in our lives and getting in a natural setting that does the body good.

When they say "tiny cabin" they really mean it because this wooden building is less than 180 square feet. However, clever use of the space provides plenty of room for amenities. Inside you will find a loft bed for two, a kitchen with a stovetop, sink, and mini fridge, and - against all odds - a full bathroom!

The property has a few other cabins scattered around, but you will have privacy while staying as a guest in the Tiny Owl. This is, after all, a relaxing retreat, I recommend taking it easy and just explore the grounds. What you will find as you meander around are hiking trails, a creek, and a beautiful pond.

If you're itching to explore and looking for a fun day trip, I would suggest heading to the Great Smoky Mountains. Less than a 40-minute drive from this cabin puts you at the Greenbrier area of the Smokies. This is a lesser-traveled road that follows along a river that leads to hiking trails and waterfalls. It is a great place to sit by the rocks and have lunch, or simply explore the woods on a short walk.

If you didn’t bring your lunch, Hungry Bear BBQ is located right across the road from the entrance to the Greenbrier area.

Hungry Bear BBQ is a great little stop with delicious smoked meats. Grab a quick bite with a pulled pork sandwich or dine on a hearty rack of ribs. Learn more about it with this video from Friday’s Forever:

Whenever you make your way back to your cabin, make sure you book a session in the sauna. For an extra fee, you can spend time in the wood fire sauna and have it all to yourself.

If a hot tub is more your style, make your way back to your cabin to soak in your own private hot tub. Just a few steps from the tiny cabin you can melt away in the warm bubbly water before retreating to bed for the night. Now that sounds like a great way to end any day!

Doesn’t this just sound like a super relaxing getaway into the forest? We think this is the best cabin rental in Newport, Tennessee -- and it is very affordable, which makes it even better. So when you are looking for a cabin in Tennessee, make sure you check this one out next time you need a weekend retreat. For more information or to book your stay, visit the Tiny Owl VRBO page.
