Beautiful Oasis just minutes from the fun
We loved our stay! the house is beautiful and well equipped. The location is just minutes from Pigeon Forge and a few more minutes to Gatlinburg - so we got to do all our favorite things : stroll through town, visit Elkmont, drive in the Smokies and eat at our fav restaurants. We ill be back!!!

Great place to take your fur babies
We enjoyed our stay. Very pleasant and quiet. We got some much needed relaxation. We took our German Shepherd which was great because we have a hard time finding places that allow larger dogs. The fenced yard was wonderful. The only fault we found was that the upstairs sheets and bedding had not been washed. There were black spots on the sheets but they had provided laundry detergent and we washed them no problem. Kitchen was stocked well. We did cook a few days and it worked for us. We will stay again!

Peaceful Paradise
Beautiful house perched high up in the Smokies. An amazing spot to rejuvenate with absolutely no unwanted noise! I would readily return to this little retreat! Renters should be aware the driveway up is steep, one lane, and has a couple hairpin turns so may not be appealing to the group who wants to stay out late into the evening or return on that "dark and stormy night". But, the kitchen is well equipped! We adjusted by eating a nice meal out at lunchtime and making use of the lovely, cozy kitchen for some glorious evening dinners. Perfect! Our host, Tim, was an absolute delight and we'd go back just for the chance to catch up with him! You MUST try out this spot! (I only gave the Location 4 stars because of the tricky driveway, although ince used to jt not a huge obstacle. )

Needed to relax with my pups
It took a bit to navigate my way out onto the main strip to see things but the owner was excellent in getting me perfect instructions to navigate my way. Pups LOVED the cabin. Thanks again Tim for the meeting and discussion and meeting Tuck and Toad!

About the host

Hosted by Tim Kresica

Host profile image
I achieved and enjoyed success within the building products industry for many years. Born and raised in Chicago, my education and career path eventually led to opportunities in both Florida and North Carolina. In 2014, the majesty of the Great Smoky Mountains beckoned me to Tennessee where I now live and work as Resident Manager of Havens on the Ridge in Pigeon Forge.

My work ethic has always been on a dedication to rendering quality products and services, and fulfilling customer needs in an uplifting, positive way. With every undertaking and objective, I apply my belief that attention to details is important. Havens on the Ridge reflect and confirm this belief.
Personally, Tim enjoys amateur photography….engages the great outdoors…..and embraces faith-based worship.

Why they chose this property

Eastern Tennessee's beauty, tempo, and sense of community are enjoyable throughout four distinct seasons. Prompted by a lifelong affection for the Great Smoky Mountains, my real estate search led to a unique opportunity for developing an existing property into a mountain retreat for adults desiring tranquil, serene respite on a year-round basis. Havens on the Ridge is ideally located a short distance from nature's towering majesty as well as the entertainment and adventures of Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg.

The property was originally owned by The Blackburn Family whose family tree includes Michael Blackburn who achieved notoriety as the World's Greatest Sharpshooter. It's history sparked a special interest within me, and each day I'm thankful to now call Havens on the Ridge my home.

What makes this property unique

Beyond the tranquility, privacy, and comfort of Havens on the Ridge, we strive to provide a "home-away-from-home" getaway that also offers an "away from it all" feeling at the same time. Having a Resident Manager onsite ensures any need or issue that might arise during your stay will be dealt with promptly
