8 Things to Do in Our Smoky Mountain Cabin Rentals on a Rainy Day

When you think about what your vacation in the Smoky Mountains will look like, you probably imagine scenic trails, outdoor adventures, and soaking up gorgeous weather. Unfortunately, the weather doesn’t always cooperate. There’s no need to panic when you stay in one of our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals! There’s plenty of awesome fun to be had inside the comfort of your home away from home, so even rain can’t put a damper on your vacation. Here are 8 things to do in our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals on a rainy day:

1. Enjoy a Favorite Movie or Book

Pull out your favorite book and get ready to turn the pages as the peaceful sounds of rain play in the background. You can even step outside to your covered porch and watch the rain fall in between scanning pages. Gather the family together and pull up a favorite movie to watch as a group. We even have Smoky Mountain cabin rentals with home theaters for the ultimate viewing experience!

2. Challenge Your Group to Games

Nothing can bring the family together quite like putting bragging rights on the line! Many of our cabins have board games that provide hours of fun for all ages. Some of our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals have their own game rooms with exciting options like pool tables, foosball, and even arcade games. Prepare for things to get competitive in a hurry!

3. Enjoy a Home-Cooked Meal

All of our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals include fully equipped kitchens, making it easy to whip up one of your favorite meals. Or, perhaps you have a new recipe you’ve been waiting to try out. Make it a full family activity by having everyone pitch in. Cooking together is a great way to bond, and once you’re done, you can enjoy your meal together while looking out your windows at the stormy weather.

4. Have a Spa Experience at Home

The spa comes to you in many of our cabins! You’ll find plenty of cabins that feature hot tubs, jacuzzi tubs, or both. Take a load off your feet, sit back, and enjoy some quality “me time”. Light some candles, use your favorite bath bomb or bath salts, and let the bubbles relax both your body and mind.

5. Snap Shots of the Rain-Soaked Smokies

Some of the best images of the Smoky Mountains come when rain is falling. Bring your camera, put on your rain gear, and head outside where unforgettable photos are just waiting to be snapped. Rain has a way of enhancing the Smokies’ awe-striking features, from images of misty fogs to shimmering streams and even lightning striking in the distance over the mountains. Just remember to be safe!

6. Journal or Plan Future Adventures

Rainy days are the perfect time for reflection. Bring your journal and jot down all of your favorite memories from your vacation to look back on later. Rain can often provide a chance for you to plan the rest of your vacation or update your itinerary. Spending this free time wisely means you’ll be fully prepared for the sunny days ahead!

7. Enjoy Quiet Time

Vacation is normally a chance to spend quality time with loved ones or friends, but occasionally a little time to yourself is needed. Perhaps you would like to meditate or do a yoga session as you listen to the rain. Or, take a nap in one of the cozy beds inside our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals. This time to yourself is a great way to recharge for all of the adventures to come.

8. Visit Nearby Indoor Attractions

If you’re still up for adventure, indoor attractions in the Smokies are a great option. Our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals are conveniently located near some of the area’s top attractions. Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, Ripley’s Believe it or Not!, Titanic Museum Attraction, and WonderWorks are just a few of the many indoor attractions you can visit and stay dry.
