Ok but not great

Overall the cabin was nice. However, the hot tub was not properly cleaned prior to our arrival and had small debris/particles accumulated in areas and floating around. It advertised two parking spots for the cabin but this is not true. There was room for one parallel parked vehicle directly in front of the cabin we rented. Any more than that and you would be blocking the road or the cabin next door. Lastly it just needs some updating. The toilet is very small, the microwave would randomly turn on without you touching it, the ac vent covers on the floor aren't attached to anything, meaning they would move around anytime they were touched which is a problem for small kids and pets.Overall, it is not bad but I will probably try to find somewhere else to stay next time.

Disappointed

I am with Veronica K, this is our first VRBO and last! The pictures look great, but it wasn’t . I know it is a cabin, but it was dirty. The amount of dust on everything and more. My daughter had to dust and wash sheets and bedding so they can sleep. Ceiling fans dust on blades looked like the were not dusted for a long time. The guest book indicated broken tv. When I told owner, it’s like she didn’t know and send a picture of it. Owner said it was clean cause her cleaning service said so. Well maybe she should go check on her property because it was not clean. Don’t get me started on the bathrooms and kitchen too. For the amount of money spent We could have gotten 2 clean hotel rooms. Yes again I know it’s a cabin but I paid for cleaning fee. They should pay my daughter for re-cleaning. So yes they were very unhappy with there stay, so they left a day early.

Not what we thought it would be, photos not accurate!

This was our 1st time using vrbo. The description & pictures of the cabin made it look like it was a 10 but we found it to be a 5. The furniture was dirty, the ceiling fan had cobwebs & a lot of dust on it, the rugs were dirty, the wood floor & tables were sticky, the cabin smelt musty, the bath/bedroom doors were really scratched up from a big dog or a bear? I snagged my shirt on a door. Hot tub area was musty & dirty, no screen from bugs, we did not bother going out there! The sliding glass door lock was broken & a stick was used to keep it closed ( made me feel unsafe). The front windows were very dirty, they had big cobwebs inside them. Yes, it said pet friendly but there was NO grass area for pup to do it's business & no sidewalks to walk on. Some cars drove by the cabin really fast, too. I feel it was not worth the money we were charged to stay there.

The stay was simply outstanding and beyond expectations!!! Just love it!!

As usual just booked the cabin by reviews and would love to thank the reviewers on the comment about Mr.Sally the host. Admire his humanity and his courteousness and kindness towards his guests !! It was a pleasant and beautiful stay the house was cozy, clean and comfortable with cute details everywhere related to the name ‘bear feet’ took my elderly parents and in-laws they just loved the house and we got to easily have bear sightings several times with a safe distance. The house is located in such a way where you see n enjoy the bear roaming freely from a safe distance. It’s family friendly kid friendly beautiful n cozy cabin!! Which we all love as a family and definitely looking forward to go again n again. Also to comment on the host Mr.Sally’s kindness would like to recall this, we actually missed our bag with personal care items there and when I contacted the host the response was just way beyond my expectations… I just texted him with a half hope on the missed items but he made sure it got delivered to my door step with 100% assurance by sharing the tracking number as well once he shipped the items and I did received it yesterday. Just one standing example for his outstanding commitment on rendering great service to his guests!! Thank you once again Mr.Sally. We would love to visit again and will 200% whole heartedly recommend the cabin to all my friends and relatives :)

Lovely September getaway in Gatlinburg

Easy drive up to this cabin on a road with just 4 other similar cabins as neighbors. About 5 minutes to the grocery store, 10 minutes to downtown Gatlinburg. It was 25 minutes to Dollywood. The cabin was nice and clean, good dishes and pots and pans to use. I was too afraid to get out on the deck - these cabins are just hanging off the mountain (yikes!). The teenagers loved the games and the beds were comfy. Would recommend and stay again.

wonderful cabin that is close to town

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was very clean and had anything you'd want for a stay. Communication with the host was fantastic! We had two small dogs and the home is very pet friendly. There is no yard at the house, which is fine, so you need to walk the dogs when needed. The house is about 10 to 15 minutes from town and about 30 minutes from Dollywood.
