Thanksgiving with Family

We enjoyed our stay greatly! The area was convenient to town & easy routes to get into Pigeon Forge! Very well stocked, love the yard & flatness for ourselves, grand-baby & fur babies. Very well stocked kitchen!!!! We cooked our whole Thanksgiving meal there…I did bring extra utensils but really didn’t need them! The only downfall was the trash reciprocal, not large enough for that long of a time & especially over a holiday weekend! We will definitely book again! Thank you

Our family enjoyed a week long stay. So close to Gatlinburg but far enough to be out of the hustle and bustle. Can't wait for our next trip!

Perfect House and Location

We very much enjoyed our stay. The home was as pictured with everything needed and the location was perfect. I highly recommend this home. The home is right on the road, but other than a few cars, which were very respectful of the home location, we felt as if we were alone. There is a nice stream running through the yard. We also recommend trying Olga’s Yodel Cinnamon Rolls!

4 day weekend

The property was amazing. The setup of the home was perfect and we loved using the wood burning fire on cold days and nights. Our trip was spent more at the cabin. The outside firepit, grill, jacuzzi and patio area were nice. It was more than enough room for three adults, a 90 lb dog, an 11 year old and an 8 month old. We will definitely keep this location as a place to come back to.

Quiet and easily accessible

Our family loved this location! You are near a grocery store, little shops, and a gas station. But, it's tucked in the woods enough to get away from the city. Mama bear and her cubs came right up to the cabin, so that was an awesome experience for the kiddos. Has everything you need for a big family's stay.

Prefect Place

This was the perfect place close to downtown but still secluded in the mountains. My parents, me and my husband and our kids enjoyed making tons of memories! The double shower was a nice touch, and my kids loved the kids room! Nicely decorated! The Hot Tub was perfect and the campfire place was amazing! The added relaxation of the gazebo, made a special touch. I look forward to coming back in the future!

Thanks for a fun spring break!

The home was great for our spring break in the Smokies! The home itself is very nice and we enjoyed the hot tub. It mentioned a dish washer, but there wasn’t one… there were also dirty dishes put away in the cupboards. The home sits on a very narrow lot incredibly close to the road. It was nerve racking with 3 kids under 5, but I would definitely consider coming back when they’re older! Close to town but far enough away to feel like you’re really in the mountains.

Perfect for a family of 4!

We loved everything about our stay here. The house was the perfect size, with very cute and cozy decorations. My husband and I adored the outdoor area where we would relax in the hot tub after putting the kids to bed. My 5yo son loved playing the foosball table! The location of this house was perfect. It was very easy to get to downtown Gatlinburg but we still felt like we were a little secluded outside of the hustle bustle. We also went to Dollywood, which was about 18-20 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again!
