They’re was a cabin next door but we never saw or heard them, but they were there. Road to cabin was a challenge, but we’re from Indiana where the roads are straight and flat! The kitchen faucet was spray only and couldn’t be adjusted. The stairs up to the loft were a little hazardous and could use carpet or non slip pads. Cabin is beautiful and the view outstanding! Saw a baby bear in the driveway.

Great Views

Star Dancer is a beautiful and spacious cabin. We really enjoyed our stay and the Mountain View’s are spectacular. Chris’ attention to details were above our expectations. We were hoping to see bears around the cabin, but it wasn’t meant to be on this trip. I will definitely be returning to this cabin the next time I am going to the mountains! Thank you Chris for the hospitality!

Christmas getaway

We were looking for a cabin with spectacular views with few neighbors for a Christmas getaway with our family. This cabin does not disappoint. Very spacious with plenty to do with the kids and nice area to take walks with our dog. Our dog is a working dog and goes everywhere with us and nice homes are hard to find when it comes to being dog friendly. Highly recommend for a relaxing stay.

Great place to stay

The property was very nice and fun, and worked perfectly for our group (3 retired couples). Road up to house was a bit scary but shouldn’t deter anyone (just go slow…lol). It would’ve been nice to have diswasher pods for each day of the stay even if that’s not the standard in that area. Other than that great time. I hope the Gatlinburg area is okay after the hurricane. 😞

Review of Star Dancer

The property was well maintained and very spacious. We had our entire family there on vacation and my son, daughter-in-law and 4 small children occupied the lower level and had plenty of room. All levels have bedroom suites which was very nice. Deck and family room huge window was great for staring at the beautiful views.

Mountain Top Cabin

The beauty of this cabin and scenery is difficult to desribe in words. This was our first family trip to the mountains and I can confidently state nothing will likely ever top this. The location is great, adjacent to town but a bit more isolated. First off the views are out of this world off the living room. We spent lots of time there enjoying every minute of it. It was nice to have the separation of the rooms which provided extra privacy with everyone having their own bathroom. The beds were all comfy which isn't alwaysthe case. . The gameroom was a blast, playing billiards and old arcade games. This was a huge plus for our family. The ride up to the mountain was a bit of a challenge at first but we were pros by day two. Chris and Sarah were great with communication and providing answers to any questions we had. They are invested more than most others that we have dealt with on VRBO in providing a great stay. I would definitely return to this cabin or one of their other properties. spending lots of time there and

Best views in Gatlinburg

Wow!! This property was absolutely amazing! The views! The best in the area! We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck while admiring the mountains. The house was very spacious, well kept and had everything we needed! The owners were extremely easy to communicate with and readily available if we had questions. The highlight of our stay was the mama bear and her 3 Cubs that walked across the driveway while we were safe inside. The house is in a great location and close to major sightseeing areas. The roads to the house were a little precarious for us Florida folk but not terrible. Highly recommend this property!

Nice property on the mountain

The property was accurately depicted on website. Plenty of amenities. The view was beautiful. We were able to bring our fur baby which was wonderful. Owners provided detail instructions regarding the rental property. They also warned about ladybug issue prior to our check-in. Definitely had a ladybug outbreak during our stay. Hundreds of those little buggers every where which we had to vacuum daily. Negatives were minor - a dirty rag left by cleaning crew in kitchen that had dried and adhered to the counter. Kinda yucky and the front entrance was covered in leaves, debris and bugs which we swept to keep from tracking in cabin. Cabin is beautiful with exceptional Mountain Views. A good choice for a relaxing vacation.

Host profile image
Hi, I am Chris. My wife Sarah and I had been wanting a cabin retreat in the Smokies for many years. After many years of renting various properties we finally decided to buy one of our own. Then, after much success we began purchasing more cabins in Gatlinburg. We now own 6 upscale luxury properties in Gatlinburg. Guest satisfaction and good upkeep of our properties is at the top of our list.

As our guest you will be provided our direct contact details and our cell phone numbers. We are very attentive you your needs and questions if you have them.

We look forward to having you stay at one of our properties.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property due to it being located in a quiet location with a private driveway. Our outdoor area is spectacular. Plenty of parking is available, and the views are AMAZING. You will also have access to multiple swimming pools in the resort and a golf course only 1 mile away.
