Perfect

Property is in prime location close enough to EVERYTHING but yet still far enough away you still felt like you were in your own little world. Perfect size for me, my husband and our 3 kids. Plus they allow pets with an additional fee!! We had a great time and have already said we would definitely stay here again.

Convenient Cabin!

Great location! Only a couple miles from Dollywood, less than 2 miles to 'the strip'. Convenient to Townsend and Gatlinburg. Cabin was nice and roomy enough for 6 of us. Owner was helpful and was quick to respond to any questions. Check in and out was easy.

Great vacation rental

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute place. Loved sitting on the front porch and even had a bear walk by. Luckily, she kept it moving! This place has plenty of room for your entire family! The kitchen and baths have all accessories you could need. We will definitely be back!

Good for dog friendly stay

Very little carpet, which is great when traveling with dogs. Happened to stay on a pleasant temperature weekend and would have loved to leave windows open to air the place out a bit (smelled a little musty) - but there are no screens on any of the windows. There is a reason no backyard is shown - because there isn't one. However, front yard was plenty big for our pups. Not the most updated cabin, but it worked for us.

Review of The Great Escape

We were wowed by this cabin in so many ways especially the location, peacefulness and log cabin atmosphere. We were impressed with the large parking space but our favorite would have to be the front porch ! However there were issues. Biggest one, cleanliness. The carpet in the main floor bedroom was absolutely disgusting. The dressers had dirt rings on them from the bottom of the lamps and a used bandaid was stuck to one of the lamp bases. The kitchen cabinets had food stuck on the doors, as well as did the side of the refrigerator. Cobwebs/dust everywhere including floors, walls, windows and the wall rack which held kitchen items like hot pads & a cutting board. I dont think any furniture had been cleaned behind in an extremely long time. Your housekeeper has a lot to be desired. A few of the lamps were unoperable and would fall apart if moved. TV's didnt work when we first arrived. I spoke with Walt and he was suppose to arranged for someone to come service them. Im not sure if they showed..no notification of arrival time or that the service was completed. When we arrive back at the cabin in the evening the TV was on. Not sure if it popped on itself or what happened ? Thank you for letting us try the cabin. If/when we do return we will probably look to stay elsewhere unless those items mentioned were remedied.

Great Escape but not for wheelchair access

Loved the cabin and the location. It was not far from anything and easy to get to. Access into the cabin and around the first floor was all good. The first floor bathroom however had some access issues. If you use a wheelchair you could not get to the toilet and the sink is very hard to use also. The shower did not have a hand held shower head either which is very useful to those that use a wheelchair. We had to move the furniture around to gain access to the bed in the downstairs bedroom for the wheelchair user. Yes the cabin is accessible for wheelchair users it just is not totally accessible in all areas. Loved sitting on the front porch. It was wide and plenty of room.

Nice cabin, great location

The cabin was nice and cozy with a good yard for our dog. There were some cobwebs on the walls and ceilings that should have been taken care of by housekeeping but otherwise the property was clean. The microwave was spotless and the fridge had been cleared which I appreciate. All of the appliances also worked very well. The overall location is fantastic as we were just minutes from much of what we wanted to visit. The road the cabin is on was busier than expected, however. I would only walk our dog at sunrise to avoid the constant flow of vehicles throughout the day. Be prepared for a serious uphill climb if you do plan to walk a dog! Also be aware that although there is a wheelchair ramp, the first floor bedroom and bath are not set up for a wheelchair (nor do they claim to be). We had someone with mobility issues who had some difficulty moving around, but this was still a better option than nearly all the properties we looked at. Just know that the bedroom is rather small with a high bed, and the bathroom is a bit tight if you need room to maneuver a wheelchair or walker. Great to have that ramp though! We had a very minor issue at the start of our stay, but Walt was fantastic at solving the issue and was extremely apologetic even though he didn’t need to be. We definitely enjoyed our stay!

Cabin looked good from the outside, inside cobwebs, spiders, stove was nasty also inside the oven. Spatulas was gross need replaced. Pots and pans scratched and had chips on them. Pulled sheet down on the king size bed there sat a rock in the bed which my husband laid on for days. Shower and bathtub is so slippery that they should have had bathmats in them all. A/c Only cooled downstairs not upstairs. Also missing screens upstairs, we could only open one window, so it was very hot. We also had to listen to the construction work being done our whole stay right across from the cabin., from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm. Which was bad enough however the traffic through the neighborhood is like a freeway nonstop all day and night. also where we stayed there was no sight of mountain views where we stayed. Very disappointed in all. Will not be staying there ever again!

Place was ok for the money and the time we went during Labor Day weekend! The cabin needs updates and needs a deep cleaning! The carpets are very dirty and there was tons of spider webs on ceiling area and the fan in bathrooms were very dusty and looked like they have never been cleaned! The cabin was in a great neighborhood, that was covered with cabins and tons of out of towners, but everyone was nice, check in was easy, rental was easy and reasonable, and the outside the yard and landscaping was clean and well groomed. The front porch was very clean and relaxing. There had definitely been a bear out back of this cabin there was bear poop and he/she had ate a turtle shell still there. We had a good experience just wished it had been cleaner and more updated.

Overall satisfied

We enjoyed the location and overall it was good. However there were a lot of bugs on the inside that we were constantly killing or removing, and many spider webs on the inside of the cabin, and property definitely could've used a better dusting on the inside of it.
