We've seen some incredible things at the cabin, but a double rainbow is a first! Love when our guests get to experience the Maggie Mountain Magic and share it with us 💗

Hi, we’re the family behind Hibernation Station. 🐻🏔️

So, why the Smoky Mountains?

For me, there’s something about these mountains that feels like coming home.

I grew up in Wales, surrounded by mountains, changing seasons and the kind of natural beauty that makes you slow down and notice it. The fresh, clean air. The sound of water running through a stream. Mist settling over the mountains. Cool mornings and changing leaves. And perhaps most importantly, a simpler pace of life.

The Smokies bring all of those memories rushing back. They hit every one of my senses and remind me of a childhood I feel incredibly fortunate to have had.

As life became busier and our own family grew, I wanted our children to experience some of that too—to get outside, explore, breathe the mountain air, play in streams, watch the seasons change and discover that sometimes the very best memories are made doing the simplest things together.

That’s why we chose Maggie Valley as our home away from home and why Hibernation Station means so much more to us than simply owning a cabin.

We’ve filled it with the things our family loves and created spaces to play, relax, reconnect and just be together. And when we’re not there, we get to share this little piece of the mountains with other families, friends and four-legged family members too. ❤️

So when you stay at Hibernation Station, you’re staying somewhere that is very much loved, lived in and cared for by our family.

We hope you feel a little of what we feel every time we arrive:

Take a deep breath. Slow down. You’re in the mountains now. 🏔️

POV: Your mountain vacation starts with a visit from the local wildlife… 🐻
One of our wild neighbors decided to stroll right up the driveway at Hibernation Station. It’s one of the many reminders that when you stay in the Smokies, you’re truly surrounded by nature.
Watching from a safe distance is part of the mountain magic. ❤️
If you’re visiting the Smokies, bear sightings are always possible. Please remember:
🐾 Never approach wildlife
🐾 Never feed bears
🐾 Secure all food and trash
🐾 Enjoy the moment from a safe distance
Have you ever seen a bear in the wild?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The best part of hosting isn't the views—it's hearing what those views meant to our guests.

Reading reviews like these truly makes my day.

From families appreciating all the little details we provide, to kids spending hours in the game room, to evenings relaxing in the hot tub after a day exploring the Smokies... this is exactly why we love hosting.

We created Hibernation Station to be more than just a place to stay. We wanted families to arrive, unpack once, make memories together, and leave already planning their next trip.

To Cecil, Amy, and every family who has trusted us with their vacation—thank you. Your kind words mean more than you know. ❤️

If you're planning a Smoky Mountain getaway, we'd love to welcome you.
