Spring break

We had a nice time in the cabin. Close enough to all the attractions but also far enough away for some nice privacy. The hot tub was a nice touch too. Lots of wildlife and roosters out there

Cute cabin close to downtown Gatlinburg

We recently stayed with our young family. Everything was very clean and in good working order--very thankful for that! They had plenty of bed linens available, fully stocked kitchen so we could cook and the primary bed was so comfortable! It's a quick, easy drive to downtown Gatlinburg and there's a nice grocery store less than 10 minutes away. We had a great stay! Thank you!

Great family vacation

We had an amazing time and this place did not disappoint. Close to town but still allowed you to feel secluded. This was our second trip here and we tried staying closer to town and glad we did. Was able to get down and into places easily and still saw bears daily- one was right on the embankment when my daughter walked outside and one we saw police escorting it down the road! Recommend this place for your next getaway!

Cabin not far from town

We really enjoyed our stay and rhe shape the property is in. Plenry of utensils, plates and glasses for all. The cabin was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The location is great for getting downtown and over to pigeon forge quickly. The only real down sides were the shower downstairs was very small with nowhere to place soap or shampoo. And not the fault of the owner and if you are a morning person this shouldn't bother you but there is a property down the way that has a rooster who loves 5 to 530am...lol. Not a deal breaker but definitely woke us up every day. All in all we would definitely stay again and enjoyed our vacation very much.

Great Place

The other reviews are accurate. Easy access close to downtown. No crazy roads. My son loved the kids room and video games. Also had plenty of room to play when we were in the cabin. The roosters are there but not a problem. Hot tub was great. Hosts were responsive to any issues we had during our stay.

Amazing vacation

Was a very clean cabin. Easy to get to the cabin. Very homey feeling. Still close to the attractions but enough to feel like you are still in the mountains. Hot was nice and clean. Beds were very comfortable. Only recommendation is bring some spare towels for the hot tub.

Great for a staycation or as a close spot for attractions

We enjoyed our stay. We had some sad stuff happen right before our stay. And it was just so relaxing out on the back deck. Even enjoying a meal out there was relaxing. Our daughter loved climbing the stairs and sleeping in a big bed also.

Perfect Mountain Vacation

My family and I had a five night stay at this cabin. It was wonderful. The cabin was clean and it was a very spacious for a family of four. My little ones (2 and 4) absolutely loved the upstairs bedroom with bunk beds. The location of the cabin was wonderful. Very close to all of the attractions and no scary mountain drive which is a huge plus for me! The cabin was also private and there were no close neighbors. The balcony was amazing and we really enjoyed the hot tub. Communication with the owner was great. A very pleasant and enjoyable experience all around. Would love to stay here again!

Nice Place

It was a quiet place to stay(other than some neighbors roosters but we fully know this is out of the owners control). Beds were very comfy. The grill was a little close to the hill/weeds but someone was there and cut them back for us. Deck was very relaxing in the evening. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay here.

No complaints. Had a wonderful stay

We traveled to Gatlinburg for a quick weekend and the location of this cabin was exceptional. As soon as you get into Gatlinburg you turn at the first light and you’re maybe 5 minutes up the road. It was the perfection location for Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Upon arriving I had requested a baby bed and high chair. Both were there when we arrived. Beds were comfy and everything was cleaned to my satisfaction. Will definitely stay here again!

Gatlinburg

Everything was clean. It was nice, location was good, plenty of parking and comfortable beds. I wish there was a way to access the back porch without having to go through the master bedroom the single cup coffee maker would not work however the pot worked fine. There needs to be a few hooks in the upstairs bathroom. And the roosters on the other side of the road were nonstop even at night.

Great Family Getaway

We had a wonderful time at Happy Days!! The location could not have been more convenient. My husband, daughter, son-in-law, grandson, and myself stayed. The cabin was very comfortable and had plenty of room for us. We stayed at Happy Days for 8 nights. The only thing we found lacking were the towels. There was one small bath towel and one wash cloth per person so there was not a cloth to wash your face and a separate cloth to bathe with. We did end up going to Walmart and purchasing towels. I say this to say bring towels and wash cloths from home. Otherwise the house had everything we needed. The host, Justin, was very pleasant to deal with and very responsive. We all agreed that we would not have a problem renting this house again should we go back to Gatlinburg in the future.
