Not all Gatlinburg cabins cost a fortune. Do any of these options fit your budget?

Just imagine: The sun rising between Smoky Mountain peaks and a freshly brewed cup of coffee in hand as you spy on the early birds from your wooden balcony during a Gatlinburg getaway.

Why pay someone else for a weekend vacation when you could own a cabin yourself? The price is a barrier, of course, but not all Gatlinburg cabins cost an arm and a leg.

For $274,000, a charming 1,300-square-foot home with two bedrooms and two bathrooms at 314 Bruce Road could be yours. Or, you could sell your firstborn and purchase the $2.68 million cabin at 720 Pinecrest Drive ? six bathrooms and seven bedrooms across 7,285 square feet.

The point is, there's a range, and chances are you might find yourself working with a budget somewhere in between.
