Description Description
Key to Heaven has everything you want in a Smoky Mountain lodge: 2 King bedrooms, lovely views, jetted tubs, screened in porch, private hot tub and a location close to attractions, restaurants, and shops. The living room of Key to Heaven was designed with a double-height wall of windows so that you feel as if you’re out among nature’s splendor even while indoors. Like the rest of the cabin, the living room boasts lustrous hardwood floors, wood-planked walls and ceilings, and log-style furnishings. The wood-burning fireplace is sure to be a favorite gathering spot on winter evenings. Whether you’re watching a cable movie on the flat-panel TV, surfing the web via the complimentary WiFi, or playing a rousing game of Pictionary, you’re sure to feel at ease and at home. Comfy Sleeper sofa for extra sleeping. The loft has a pool table with its own flat screen TV. and a 2 player arcade game with 60 of your favorie "oldies". While away the hours playing some competitive pool. Sleeper sofa for extra sleeping. If you’re vacationing with the kids, they can head up here to do their own thing while you relax downstairs. Or perhaps you’d like to sneak away up here for a well-deserved nap while the others are downstairs—go ahead, we won’t tell! Back on the main floor, just off the living room, is the dining area and kitchen. Once you see how light, bright, and airy this space it, you might want to eat most, if not all, of your meals in. The dining table seats 6, so you can invite friends over for a meal. The spacious kitchen includes sparkling stainless-steel appliances, plenty of cookware and tableware, and gleaming counters. Even if you do end up eating most of your meals out, you’ll appreciate being able to brew your morning coffee to enjoy on one of the front porch’s rockers and having a blender to mix a batch of margaritas to sip on the deck as you watch the sunset. You can dine on the deck as well. Spanning the width of Key to Heaven, the deck includes a patio table for 6. Because most of the deck is screened in, you can listen to wrens in the morning and whip-poor-wills at night without having to swat away flying insects. What’s more, the ceiling fans will keep you delightfully cool even in the dog days of summer. An unscreened portion of the deck is home to a hot tub. While a soak among its massaging waters is a treat any time of day, it’s especially romantic at night, in the silvery shimmer of the moonlight, as chirping tree frogs and crickets serenade. You can soothe your tired muscles indoors as well. Key to Heaven has 2 master suites, each of which has a private bathroom that includes a Jacuzzi as well as a shower and twin sinks. Each bedroom has its own log-frame king-size bed, plus a TV, generous storage, and a ceiling fan to help lull you to sleep. Whether you’re traveling with the kids or another couple, you’ll feel as if you’re in a blissful private retreat. Among other amenities are an outdoor grill, ample parking, and a washer and dryer. What’s more, because Key to Heaven is located in Gatlinburg’s in-demand Cobbly Nob neighborhood, when you stay during the warm-weather months, you’ll have free access to the 2 local outdoor swimming pools. If you like to golf, bring your clubs: Key to Heaven is only a few miles from Bent Creek Golf Course, designed by legendary golfer Gary Player. Also, close by are Climb Works, where you can explore the Smokies via zipline or mountain bike; the Great Smoky Mountains National Park; and the attractions of downtown Gatlinburg. Access to community pool in Cobbly Nob resort area. Just a short drive away. Open from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Enjoy! Beds: Main floor: 2 King bedrooms, spacious and comfortable, 1 is a suite 1 has a hall bath Living room has queen sized sleeper sofa and the loft offers a twin sleeper sofa Located directly beside Smoky Mountain Dream, another 2 bedroom 2 bath. If you are coming with a group and need a little extra space - they are walking distance to one another. A beautiful cabin in a beautiful setting, Key to Heaven is an ideal home away from home.

Cabin was BEAUTIFUL with STUNNING Mountain View’s!!!
Steep and narrow drive to cabin (particularly in the rain) so be cognizant of other drivers who are less experienced on these roads. I personally recommend keeping your vehicle in low gear to help your transmission while driving up to the cabins.
We were delighted to witness Mama bear with three young cubs one evening of our visit. The kids loved that!!!

Last 2 years in a row I have booked with Stoneybrook and here on out when visiting Tennessee they will be the only people I contact and will schedule my dates around their openings . I have visited Tennessee for about 5 to 6 years straight and have had a few cabins that where nightmares and then I found this company and really can't wait to use them again and I literally just got home lol ?

Awesome
As we entered the road that this cabin was on it was amazing, the scenery and the cabin was breath taking. As we entered into the cabin, it was so clean and so welcoming. I told my husband that I wanted to take the cabin home with me.....hahaha. We had my 5 month old grandson with us and his parents and it was perfect for a baby. This was the 1st vacation that we all have had together and it was such a great place to stay. We shot shot pool and played video games that we haven't played in years. We even got to see a Momma Bear and Cub. I am in the process of booking again next year, such a great cabin!!! 10/10 stars!!

Your website is very user friendly. Booking a cabin is so easy. Every one we have rented have been clean and in perfect shape. I think we have rented 5 different cabins from you over the years and everyone of them were exactly what we wanted and needed. Our most current stay was at Marlene’s Key to Heaven. We have rented this house several times. We like its location and it fits our needs so perfectly. We will be back!

My family had the best time staying at Marlene’s Key to Heaven for our Spring Break. The home was gorgeous, well maintained and clean, and the amenities were awesome. We enjoyed the views, game room, hot tub, and taking our furbaby for walks around the quiet neighborhood! We were lucky to see a Mama bear and her cub on our last night. We can’t wait to come back and visit again!

Thank you for a great vacation weekend. We had a wonderful time. The cabin was prepared for our stay, and in great condition. Also, We appreciate the proactive phone call to warn us of potential bad weather and to possibly stock up on bottled water due to the well pump being electrical, and possible Power outages. Thankfully the weather was not an issue and all was well.

We loved our cabin. It was perfect for my family. I loved the kitchen - it had plenty of cabinet/refrigerator space for all of our food! From the deck, the porch and the beautiful mountain view, I couldn’t have picked a better place. It was super clean, cozy and beautifully decorated. The staff at Stony Brook went above and beyond and even checked in during the week to see if we needed anything. After a horrible experience and worst vacation in my 45 years with Timber Tops/Amazing Views last year, I will only use Stony Brook from now on!

Cabin was great, location a bit far from gatlinburg, but nice because it makes you feel like you are in the mountains. Love the furniture, the interior layout, the covered deck for when it rains. It's quiet, bears are in the area, seen momma and a cub climb a tree down the street. Wish renters would not lock up their dogs in the bathroom, or bedrooms, there are scratches on doors. We use crates for ours. Missing scissors in the butcher block, couldn't find them anywhere. There were food crusted cookie sheets in the oven drawer. May need to stock scouring pads. Will definitely rent again.

Overall, we were very impressed with Stony Brook from the beginning. The photo gallery that shows the various cabins were true to the pictures. The telephonic communication was professional and clearly explained. Once we walked into our cabin, we were welcomed with soft music playing from the Echo and the cabin was very clean and neat. We also appreciated the courtesy check-ins by email and phone calls. Plus, we were able to take advantage of the free attractions.
