Our stay was fantastic! Check in was super easy and the place had everything we could have needed. The views and wildlife were amazing. Phil responded immediately to questions and was a great host. The location was great as well-out of the way but just a couple minutes to downtown.

We had a wonderful time staying at Sophie’s hideout. The view was spectacular, the bear sightings were entertaining and the owner/host was very helpful. Also, the drive up was not so bad, but I do recommend arriving before dark the first time up. I would definitely stay here again.

It was a good time.

Overall it was a nice cabin we did find quite a few things in drawers in different rooms of the house and one of the bedrooms which we had planned to be the kids room was not able to be gotten to from inside of the house but overall a very nice cabin and stay.

Beautiful cabin

We loved this place. It looked just like the pictures. The view was amazing! My kids enjoyed the games (some didnt work but thats ok) and the movie room. The streaming platforms available were great. The kitchen had everything we needed. We did bring extra trash bags and we did need those. My only complaint is also that we weren’t aware of the bunk room bedroom only being accessible from outside until I saw it on recent reviews. I would like to see this updated in the listing as we were not comfortable allowing our daughter to sleep down there by herself. This made us change the sleeping arrangements.

The views from the porches were breathtaking and were much enjoyed while having coffee in the morning and ending the day watching the sun go down. The area was peaceful and easy to get to. The cabin was clean. We were sad to leave! Would definitely stay again.

We had an amazing time! The house is beautiful and so clean! A few of the arcade games weren’t working (big buck world, pac man) but the kids really enjoyed having their own space in the game room/movie room. We enjoyed spending time on the deck with the hot tub and tv, but would’ve liked if the furniture was a tad more comfortable or had cushions. We would’ve used the furniture from the lower deck more but it was soaked all weekend from the rain. We were happy to get a visit from the bear on our first day. He wasn’t scared of us at all so make sure to not leave any food or garbage out. The views from all balconies were gorgeous! We will definitely stay here again!!! Highly recommend!!!!

Best family vacation ever!

I will begin by saying the pictures of the cabin and view do not do it justice! What a beautiful cabin and breath taking views! The size was perfect for an extended stay with all the amenities of home. Location was equal distance from downtown Gatlingurg and Pigeon Forge
