Everything was fabulous. The cabin pictures were accurate to what was there. Everything was clean when we arrived. The kitchen was fully stocked and allowed us to cook easily during our stay. The beds were comfortable. Our kids enjoyed the pool table/ arcade games in the basement. The hot tub worked well and was very clean.

Location is great for small town vibes, with big cities less than an hour away. Cabin was beautiful, spacious and well stocked with what we needed. Justin was very good at communicating with me prior, during and even after our stay. We would recommend this place and also rent it again ourselves.

Quiet & Peaceful Porches

My wife and I really enjoyed this cabin. It’s on a dead end street and very private. We usually dont use the hot tubs but this was too inviting and we used it everyday. Another plus is there is a lot of thought to detail like blankets in the living areas and kitchen tools. Finally, while we didn't need Justin, he definitely was very responsive in the booking process and gave me the sense he would be quick to help on any issues.

Amazing Place to Stay

This cabin home is definitely home away from home. Our family from 5 months old to 71 years old thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It looks exactly as listed and was very comfortable. Not to mention, it's in perfect driving range for things to do locally or in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We highly recommend renting this cabin with your friends/family!

Perfect Atmosphere!!!!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed this cabin. With its 3 beautiful porches there is serenity for everyone. It was so cool to be relaxing in the hot tub and have a huge black bear come walking right by. It was an extremely rainy week with a hurricane coming thru, but we never got bored with the awesome game room. Our host was incredible with any issues that arose. We're counting down the days until we can come back to this awesome cabin. Larry from Georgia

Amazing

I have stayed in multiple VRBO rentals, and have never had a host like this one. They went above and beyond for us from the time I booked all the way through checkout. They even let me make a last minute date change so my son could make his baseball tournament. The cabin was awesome, and had everything you would need to entertain the 5 kids we had with us. Would definitely book with them again!

Nice location

Good location - we were there for the smoky mountains so about a 20-30 minute drive to hikes we were wanting. Good space but it does have wood floors and is squeaky and loud from room to room so if one of us was awake we all were cut it was fine. Floors were a little dirty and there were cobwebs on light fixtures and dust on spaces but it was fine.

Amazing Trip

As a family we wanted a peaceful stay after my husbands first chemo treatment. This house was over and beyond what we expected. The view is exceptional and we were very close to Grand Lake and park entrance. We had 8 people and it worked out perfectly. House is fully stocked with all the essentials you would need to cook meals and entertain. We loved the moments around fireplace and the large dining area. Would recommend 100%. We hope to be back in the future.

Great Family Getaway

We had a great time. The house is so cozy and well appointed. The kids loved the game room. I loved sitting out on the screened in back proch while listening to nature. This is a house you stay at to relax and go into Townsend eat come back to and the kids continue the while the adults can relax, or day trips. It is a bit of a drive to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The drive is beautiful winding roads. The views are to die for. The cafe in Townsend had really nice people, simple but good food. Tuckaleechee Caverns is a great day trip. But our favorite was the Parrot Mountain and Gardens. The birds are beautiful and it's a real experience. The trip was great. We ill definitely be back!

Beautiful location

Overall the property and location is beautiful. We enjoyed our stay but there were definitely some disappointments specifically around listing description and communication. When we booked this listing, I communicated that my group of 12 would all be on our motorcycles and we would have a vehicle with a trailer. The host / property manager did not mention that the driveway would ONLY fit 2 vehicles and that there is absolutely nowhere to park nearby. In addition, the property itself is on an incredibly steep hill with no place to turn around. Not a problem for most but again this kind of information in the description or communicated to us when we booked and shared our plans would have been greatly appreciated. The messaging and instructions we received on certain topics was also contradictory in some instances to the printed instructions in the cabin, so it made it confusing. The property manager also made it clear that the house should be made spotless. Our group was very worried about returning blankets, remotes, furniture etc to the exact spot so as to not incur a fee. Finally, the house itself is listed as a 12 person accommodation but thats really not accurate. Maybe with children that would have been okay. For a group of adults it was too cramped (not enough beds unless everyone shared the sleeper and twin beds as well) and the house itself is very loud (creeking stairs, no sound proofing between the floors, etc). It is a lovely place and we enjoyed the ability to coo

sleeps 12, but only parks 6.

This cabin is very nice, we checked in to find a broken sink drain, but since the drain still worked, it didn't really affect us much. Later we would find a toilet that just kept running. It would be helpful if the listing mentioned that the driveway only holds two cars comfortably, and if you have 3 fullsize trucks, it's going to be a problem.
