Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing to celebrate Sampson’s 9th birthday at our cabin! It means a lot to know you all enjoyed your stay, and I’m glad we communicated smoothly. Sampson is always welcome back—hope to see you all again for another memorable visit!
Thank you both for being such great guests and for taking such great care of our cabin. We truly appreciate the respect you showed to our space. It’s always wonderful to host guests who value their stay as much as we do. We hope to see you again in the future!
This was the best cabin to take our fuzzy family member! Our fuzzy family member and the rest of my family felt right at home, our entire stay. Our host was very informative and helpful! Lots to do local with your fuzzy family member as well; Gatlinburg trail, UTV rides, and the island!

Thank you SO much! We sincerely appreciate you leaving a great review and trusting us with your stay at Freedom Creek Hideaway!
The cabin itself was great. Especially the kitchen. The host answered quickly. However, we took our dog with us since I saw that the stay was pet friendly. Pet friendly, not so much. I received a surprise fee of 175 for a two night stay! I could have boarded my dog for 75. Apparently I didn't read everything in the agreement. I thought all was included in the first payment I sent. My poor girl didn't have anywhere to walk to for exercise. We are in our 60's and walking up and down steep hills any direction you walked made it very difficult for us and the dog.

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing our cabin. I’m glad you enjoyed the cabin itself, especially the kitchen, and that my communication met your needs. To clarify for future guests, my cabin is located in the Great Smoky Mountains, and the terrain is typical for this area—hilly and naturally rugged—which was described accurately.
Regarding the pet fee, it is clearly listed in the property description and communicated again directly to guests after booking. I encourage all guests to read the full listing details to avoid any surprises. I appreciate your input and will continue to be transparent in my communication so guests know exactly what to expect when booking a mountain getaway.
Great Host and easy to talk to if you need anything. We had a very relaxing stay and the cabin was clean. This was our second time staying in this cabin.

Thank you, Robert! Loved having you as a guest, and thank you for bringing some Christmas to the cabin!
Would recommend this cabin to anyone! The cabin is beautiful, everything was so tidy and clean. The host was fantastic and very informative. The location of the cabin is fantastic and very close to the major attractions. And the bed.. most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in! I’m ready to come back just to relax in the hot tub get a good nights sleep in that bed! lol Very pet friendly, equipped with a dog crate, food and water bowls, and a pet waste container outside. Perfect place to stay with our pup! We will definitely be back!

Thank you SO much! We sincerely appreciate you trusting us with your stay in East Tennessee!
The cabin was beautiful and the host was fantastic. Great communication before during and after our trip. Loved all the little dog friendly touches in the cabin. Would definitely (and probably will) stay at this cabin again.
We had another wonderful stay at the cabin! This was our second visit, and it was just as enjoyable as the first—if not better. One of our favorite things is how dog-friendly it is, which makes traveling so much easier and more relaxing for us.The recent remodel looks fantastic and really adds to the overall experience. Everything felt fresh, clean, and thoughtfully updated. The bed was incredibly comfortable—we slept great every night, which always makes a big difference when you’re away from home.The location is also perfect, especially with how close it is to the parkway. It made getting around so convenient while still feeling peaceful and tucked away.Thank you so much for letting us stay again—we truly appreciate it. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

Why they chose this property
Our cabin is less than a mile from Parkway, the main road connecting Sevierville and Gatlinburg. Sevierville, home to Dollywood, water parks, and shopping, is to the left, while historic Gatlinburg, featuring local shops, authentic restaurants, and the entrance to the Smoky Mountains, is to the right. Parkway is also where you can find street rods and classic car shows. This location offers the best of both worlds.

Freedom Creek Hideaway is such a thoughtfully designed space. These standards capture the style, comfort, and hospitality elements our guests love the most. Thanks to the fantastic feedback from our guests, we've become a top-performing host and a hospitality leader in Pigeon Forge.
