Stay in a Vintage Gatlinburg Motel! Now Pet Friendly!

The Fox Den is a 2 bedroom 2 bath Vintage Motel apartment. It was originally the owners house of the Fox Motel built in 1950s by our Grandparents that we have redone and converted to a nightly rental. An amazing location with less than a 1/4 mile walk to downtown Gatlinburg shops and restaurants with a Trolley stop in front of the building. Watch the Gatlinburg parades for Christmas and July 4th from the patio at the front of our plaza! The building was designed by Hubert Bebb (a student of Frank Lloyd Wright) and is one of the few remaining vintage motels in Gatlinburg. It has been remodeled for your comfort while keeping as much original as possible to give you the experience of 'Olde Gatlinburg Charm'. Decorated with a vintage/boho/eclectic theme, local arts and crafts, and rustic touches make this a unique rental. Fox (of Cherokee origin) was our Grandparent's last name and we've kept their legacy of hospitality intact by continuing to welcome guests to our place of happy memories!

Great home base for Gatlinburg and the park

This spot allowed for very easy access to Gatlinburg and the Smokies while also allowing a bit of reprieve from all the hubbub in town. It was very clean, cozy, and spacious. We really appreciated being able to relax here after long days of hiking. Thanks so much for your hospitality!

Family getaway in the mountains

Fox Place is a quaint cottage. It is spacious enough for a family of 5 to find a quiet corner and allowed us to come together for meals. Walking distance to all things Gatlinburg.

Fall festivities

I really enjoyed my stay and hated to leave. It was convenient and inviting. Only thing that might possibly need improvement is the queen bed mattress quality. Otherwise, it was hands down an excellent experience.
