1. Appreciate the Gorgeous Views
Many visitors actually consider themselves lucky when it is snowing in the Great Smoky Mountains! The snow creates a picturesque scene as the forests and mountains surrounding your cabin are magically transformed into a winter wonderland. Heat up a warm beverage and enjoy the amazing scenery from one of the many large windows throughout your cabin.
2. Have a Snowball Fight
Bring the whole family outside for an hour or two of fun in the fresh powder. A good snowball fight can become a cherished memory for your children, especially when it is followed by warm hot chocolate in your cabin!

3. Cook a Delicious Meal
The cabins at Alpine Chalet Rentals feature fully equipped kitchens where you can prepare a delicious meal to enjoy indoors. Get the entire family involved in making a special snowy day menu! Grilled cheese and tomato soup is always an irresistible choice when the weather is wintry.
4. Warm Up With Your Cabin’s Fireplace and Jacuzzi
Many of our cabins feature a gas or wood burning fireplace, where you can create the perfect ambiance to accompany the snowy scene outdoors. Cuddle up with a loved one by the fireplace, or simply relax with a book as the heat keeps you nice and toasty. Couples will also enjoy their cabin’s bubbly indoor Jacuzzi tub for a romantic evening of relaxation.

5. Enjoy Storytime
Snowy days are a great time for families to sit by the fire and share stories. You can tell some tales from your childhood, read from your favorite book, or make up a brand new story as a family. Don’t forget to write down any fantastic stories you come up with; it could be the next great American novel!
