Falling asleep to the sounds of a bubbling creek flowing outside your Smoky Mountain cabin is an appealing thought. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park comprises a large area of the border around the states of North Carolina and Tennessee and is home to a large number of cabin rentals popular with vacationers. The best time to find cheap deals on cabins is to visit the Smoky Mountains in the off-season which lasts approximately from November to February. Opting for smaller cabins where people can sleep on couches or floors can be another way to save money.
