Amazing Cabin, Cleanliness is Great

We loved this cabin in the mountains for our 8 day stay with my husband, stepson, and brother in law. We saw 6 bears within 24 hours of being in the neighborhood. The hot tub is an added bonus and the entire place is clean -- something I struggle greatly with when it comes to staying at new places. Communication with property owners were great when necessary -- which was only in the beginning of our stay to warn us about bears. We will definitely be back and were sad to leave. Highly recommended on my list!!

Spring break

Enjoyed the home and location! It is close to the town and the park! Easy instructions and had them posted for us to read. Great correspondence between the owner and arrival date. Didn’t like the driveway but realized we were staying in a cabin on a mountain. It was a great vacation!!

Responsive and Attentive Host

The cabin is exactly as described and a very nice place to stay. It was cleanly and well stocked with the necessities. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to use the hot tub but at no fault of the owner. He was extremely helpful and attentive to try and have it fixed and very accommodating when it was unable to be so. Super nice person and replied to any questions in a very timely manner. We would absolutely stay here in the future and 10/10 recommend to anyone that is able to climb stairs!! Also loved playing pool on the pool table while there 😁

About the host

Hosted by Steve Baker

Hi, I am Steve Baker, the owner of Timberwinds. I was born in New Jersey, but have discovered there's no place like Tennessee. I travel quite often, but can always count on great R&R every time I can visit this unique log home in the Smoky Mountains.

Why they chose this property

I have discovered that Gatlinburg is one of the most unique places I have ever been. It borders the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. And it exhibits a mountain character that is preserved in time. My home is located on a mountainside in the city limits called Chalet Village. This village contains hundreds of unique chalets and log homes. Every home is unique in its design. This has been the perfect area to own a home
