Melton’s View Barnwood Builders Cabin

Step into a piece of living history at Melton’s View, a beautifully restored 1860s antique log home originally from Bull’s Gap, Tennessee. Featured on Season 8 of the hit DIY series Barnwood Builders, this one-of-a-kind cabin blends authentic 19th-century craftsmanship with modern mountain luxury.

The space
Perched on a quiet ridge in Timberidge, Melton’s View offers a rare combination of seclusion, comfort, and unforgettable Smoky Mountain views. From sunrise coffee to golden-hour sunsets over the western peaks, every moment here feels cinematic. Watch the sky turn colors from the rocking chairs, or unwind in the private lower-deck hot tub beneath the stars.

Breathtaking Mountain Views

True to its name, Melton’s View delivers sweeping, “million-dollar” vistas of the Smokies. Enjoy panoramic mountain scenery and glimpses of the Ober Gatlinburg ski slopes right from your private decks.

Peaceful Seclusion & Wildlife

Tucked at the end of a quiet road and bordering a protected preserve, the cabin offers exceptional privacy. Guests often spot black bears, wild turkeys, and deer near the nearby pond—an authentic Smoky Mountain experience.

Comfortably Designed for Families or Couples

With two spacious luxury suites located on separate levels, Melton’s View is ideal for two couples or a small family of four. Each bedroom includes its own full bathroom for added privacy and comfort.

The chef’s kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a warm farmhouse feel, perfect for everything from morning coffee to home-cooked dinners.

Gather in the main living area around the stone fireplace, or head downstairs for a cozy movie night on Roku Smart TVs or a friendly game of checkers.

Prime Location

Perfectly located between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Melton’s View gives you quick access to the Parkway’s top attractions while still offering peaceful mountain privacy. Local shortcuts make getting around fast and easy.
