Sister Vacation

This was an absolutely beautiful cabin. Very well stocked and plenty of room. Very easy to get to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and the Smoky Mountains. We absolutely loved our stay. Hot tub was great. We did not see any bear at the cabin but did spot one in the Smoky Mountains. Easy check in and check out.

Charming and Cozy!

My sister and I wanted to take several friends on a little girls trip to Gatlinburg. We loved our experience at this cabin! I wanted to pick a place where we didn’t feel like we would be lost in the middle of nowhere. I’ve had experiences in Gatlinburg before with rentals that felt like they were located way too far up the mountain with crazy roads…! This one felt so much more convenient and safe and easily able to return to after downtown adventuring (while still not compromising on the great mountain views!). The bedrooms and spaces were clean. Our crew felt like we could spread out nicely and just enjoy our stay. Would book again!

Cozy cabin.

The cabin was spacious, fit 8 adults without feeling cramped. Loved the open concept. Nicely located near downtown Gatlinburg. Hot tub felt great after hiking all day. Driveway was intimidating at 1st. Neighbors are very close. In the mountains but yet neighbors are close on all sides. Overall we loved it.

4th of July Stay

This cabin was great for my group of five. It could have easily accommodated another 1 or 2 people. It was cleaner than most properties we’ve stayed at. We liked that it was near but not too close to the parkway. This had all of the amenities we come to expect in Gatlinburg and they were modern and in working order. The property manager was very responsive. Check-in and checkout couldn’t be easier.

Nice cabin with friends

Great spot to enjoy with friends. Be forewarned though, literally no Pam, seasonings, plastic cups, condiments like we’ve been used to other VRBO cabins. and 1 roll of tp per bathroom. A little harder to travel with/purchase from a distance.

The Perfect Cabin

We have been to Gatlinburg a dozen or more times in the last 10 years and this cabin was by far the best place we've stayed. Beautiful cabin, lots of space and close to town (and dominoes for an easy/quick dinner) but you'd never know it by how quiet it is! We had some trouble with the keypad getting into the house but the owners got back with us immediately to assist. Our kids loved the games in the loft and we all loved the porch and hot tub. A bonus, of all the times we've been to Gatlinburg we've only been lucky enough to see bears a couple times, but while at the cabin, a momma and cub came right by the porch. Couldn't be more satisfied with our stay! Thank you to the owners for letting us stay in your beautiful cabin. Hope to do it again soon!

Nice cabin

Was not clean. Hand rail going up steps to front door was broken in 2 places. It was dangerous. Little gnats all over inside and we never had any food inside. Overall I would not stay again. It’s sad because it really is a lovely cabin.

Decent place to stay.

From the photos we were under the impression that this property was on a fairly flat land that had a fire pit in the yard. Upon arrival it was on a steeper incline than we expected and did not have a flat property at all. The fire pit looked like it belonged to the neighbors property so we did not feel comfortable using it. We chose this property for the land but for others wanting the mountain space. Overall we had a fine time here though. The cabin was clean and well maintained. The beds were comfortable, the water was hot with good pressure, we enjoyed the hot tub. Thank you for letting us use your cabin!

The location was great! Easy access to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Very nice and clean inside. Only problem we had was the 3 bears that frequently visited while we were there. One of them opened my car door! But luckily didn’t do any damage. We would rent again, but will bring bear deterrents next time.
Naughty bear.
