When using the hot tub, remember there is a certain health risk associated with this facility. Use at your own risk. Our housekeepers drain, sanitize, refill, and replenish chemicals in all tubs prior to your arrival; therefore, it may not be warm until later that evening. [DO NOT STAND ON THE HOT TUB COVERS. Hot tub covers are for insulation purposes and are not designed to support a person or persons. They will break and you may be charged for replacement.] Remember when not using the hot tub, leave the cover on so hot tub will stay warm. - NOTE: The hot tub is drained and cleaned after each guest so the hot tub may not be hot or to its full heat when you arrive. It can sometimes take up to 24 hours to get to full heat of 104* and if it is very cold out it may not get above 90*. Keep the cover on snug to help retain the heat and help it heat up faster. Hot tubs tend to have a lot of maintenance and there will be no refunds or discounts if there is a hot tub issue during your stay. We will do our best to get it fixed once notified as quickly as possible. 16. SOME NOTES ABOUT THE MOUNTAINS: - This is the mountains and cell service may be spotty - There may be some twisty roads - This is in the forests and mountains and you will likely see bugs, mice, spiderwebs, or furry critters (including bears!). We do maintain the property with regular pest control, but due to the surroundings, or if doors are left open, or food is left outside the house, this can attract critters. - There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc. - PLEASE NOTE: Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin and you...

Guests at Alpine Lodge have access to the entire home and its amenities. Enjoy the use of the hot tub, BBQ, fire pit, laundry room, etc. Make use of the WiFi and Theater Room when you're not out adventuring on the nearby hiking trails when you're looking for some fresh air. Parking: There is a paved driveway right in front of the entry that can hold about 2 cars. There is a large gravel parking area down on the side of the cabin, however it is a bit steep to get down and there is a big bump at the transition from the pavement to the gravel so it's best only for trucks or SUVs that have ground clearance.
