  • Anniversary Get-a-Way

    5/5

    We came to Settlers Mountain for the 2nd year in a row. First time was in the original log cabin, for our honeymoon. This time we stayed in Grinders Switch, and could not have been happier! Loved the cabin, loved the town, and loved the steam train ride. We celebrated our 1st Anniversary while there. This mountain holds awesome memories for us and we hope to make this a yearly trip! Kevin and family have made this such a special place to visit ❤️

    We loved this property! Beautiful yards and surrounding areas. It was near to activities but still in a quiet area. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed! I will definitely be staying there again!!

    This was my second time staying at the GRINDER’S SWITCH CABIN. The cabin was spotlessly clean and well-maintained. The beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable, and the air conditioner quickly cooled the cabin when needed. I’ll definitely be booking this cabin again next year

    Very nice cabin. Plenty of space for a full size family. Good spot near shops and Polar Express train ride. It had everything you needed to cook with and accommodate a big family. The price for our stay was very reasonable for our time and the size of our family! Would definitely recommend these cabins to anyone that would like to visit this area!
