It's a very nice cabin. The road to get to it is extremely steep. The towels and linens could definitely use an upgrade.The bed was very comfortable. If you plan on doing any cooking make sure you bring everything you might possibly need as far as oil, spices, foil, baggies, ect. This was the last leg of our 11 day roadtrip and we just didn't have what we needed. We would stay again, we would just be better prepared.

We loved our cabin, it was beautiful and clean when we arrived, check-in was easy the bed was very comfortable, and we had all the supplies we needed in the kitchen. Staff checked in with us when we arrived and made sure we didn’t need anything. It was very private and away from all the hustle and bustle of the town which we enjoy, but was also was a short drive to gatlinburg and pigeon forge. We got to see a few bears walking the road which was cool as we wanted to see some while we were in Tennessee. We enjoyed the included tickets to some of the excursions in the area which was a plus. We would definitely stay again if we ever decided to go back!

A clean, cozy cabin up in the woods! Quick drive to the heart of Gatlinburg and PF, so always things to do nearby. Hot tub stayed hot and jets worked well. The fireplace kept the cabin warm even with it snowing outside. Host was very communicative, made check-in/out super easy, and made us feel very welcomed!

The cabin was awesome. Hot tube was great. There are 2 things that are not the owners fault but were just a bummer. The view that is shown must have been taken many years ago. Because the trees around the deck have grown and you can't see any of the mountains at all. The other issue is that driveway. In the ad it says driveway is fairly flat. Which laughed about. But it is actually shaped like an U. Very little flat part. Going in and out was very very steep.Overall this was my first time at the Smokies and staying in a cabin. We had an awesome time. Thank you very much.Dawn
