Really enjoyed the cabin and our stay. When checking in they mentioned keeping car doors locked because bears were very active. We had a bear at our cabin the 1st evening and then our last night there we were in the hot tub and the bear came onto the deck and was difficult to get him to leave. Our hot tub time was over after that. Also we had to turn in towels daily to get fresh ones. There should be a sufficient amount of towels in the cabin depending on the length of stay.

The perfect A-frame

This A frame in the mountains is perfect for a small family or group of friends. One bedroom, two bathroom, and a loft with a perfect view of the mountains when you wake up. I could not have been happier with my experience at this property. Easy to book on the VRBO app and easy check in process with the cabin rental company. Quick response from the owner on the VRBO app about questions prior to booking and quick easy booking process. The place does not come with a washer and dryer so plan ahead for your stay. Otherwise, has everything else you may need to cook for yourself during your stay.

Mountain top experience.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at the A-frame chalet Pinetop had some pros & cons. I loved the location as it was high up on the mountain & the view from the deck & hot tub was the summer the trees allow it to be secluded from other cabins around it. The hot was new & was awesome! The driveway up to the cabin is short but pretty steep. The pathway leading up to the cabin from the driveway is just a mulched pathway & is fairly steep so this would present a challenge for anyone with breathing problems to negotiate numerous times. The cabin is small as you would expect an A-frame to be. The place was very clean but the furniture in the living area is old & needs to be updated. The front door is hard to open & close properly but does close & lock. Kitchen area is small but functional. We never cook while we are on vacation so this was not an issue with us. The loft bedroom area was small but the queen bed was comfortable. The queen bed in the main bedroom squeaks very bad when you first lay or sit on it. Both bathrooms were very clean & functional. We only stayed here for the weekend but I would not want to stay here for a week due to how small it was & the outdated uncomfortable furniture.We prefer cabins with larger living areas. The biggest plus for this cabin is the new deck with new hot tub & outstanding view of the mountains especially while sitting in the hot tub! The flat screen tv in the living area is very small but functional. The flat screen tv in the bedroom is much larger but you can only get apps on it, no regular tv programming.This cabin, although it has had some upgrades, would be much more appealing if the furniture & tv in the living area was upgraded. I loved the location of the cabin!

So-So

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First of all I want to say we had a great time. The place was in some disrepair. It certainly could use some TLC. Lights burned out, missing shade draws, shingles falling off. The inside was dated but okay, didn't feel like the cleaning crew pays close attention to detail, dead roaches in window sill, feather pillow leaking feathers. It's a lot of a little things that would have made the stay much better. The office staff was awesome, but next stay we will probably find something more secluded, and in better shape. Maybe we are too picky, but I look at all the little things that make a difference.

Beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful scenery but no peace and quiet. It is above a 3 way intersection and during the day was construction going on and during the evening all we heard was traffic. Got there on Saturday and hot tub did not work. Maintenance was great and got the breaker fixed on day 2. Hot tub took 4 days to heat to 101 and that was pushing the jets button every 20 minutes to heat it up faster. Tv in living room was really small. Tv in bedroom only has apps. The oven kept tripping the breaker they just installed so we ended up grilling everything. If you want a beautiful scenery 5 stars. We did have visits from bears a couple nights! Overall good vacation.

Awesome cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin is very cozy. Great view of the mountains. We saw a bear twice during our stay. The only complaint is that it was difficult getting our luggage/cooler from the car to the cabin. There is a rough path (like a trail) from the parking area to the 10 steps up to the cabin. My husband and I are in our mid/late 60s, so it was difficult for us to get our stuff in the cabin. This is a perfect place for a younger couple, or an older couple that is in better shape than we are :-)

Best Mountain View

This property had a spectacular Mountain View. We vacation in the smokies yearly and this cabin had the best views we've had yet. Perfect size cabin for my family of 3. The hot tub was wonderful and we used it every day. We did not have any issues with it. The cabin was clean upon arrival and decorated nicely for Christmas. We had a bear on our porch the night we arrived. So exciting. We will definitely be booking this cabin again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at Pinetop 25 years ago for our honeymoon. We came back to celebrate our 25th anniversary. It is a precious little cabin. We would love to own it! The upgraded decorating is very nice. The owners must have been working on the landscape or something while we were there because the front yard area was a muddy mess due to the rain. A retaining wall would help to prevent the mud that covers the cars in the drive. As others have mentioned, the master mattress is very noisy. We missed the large soaking tub inside that has been replaced by a twin shower, but it was fine with the addition of a new hot tub. This is the perfect cabin for a couple. It is adorable and has basically all you need. We love it and will definitely go back again.

Fall Delight at Pinetop

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our time very much. We loved having a fire in the evening along with the nice dinner we made in the home. It was clean and cozy. Had a little trouble running the TV remote, but the office was quick to help out. Beautiful scenery and we loved the fall colors at Pine Top. A black bear climbed in our unlocked SUV, so be sure to keep your vehicle locked up. : )

Would have been nice to have the hot tub already heated prior to arrival. Living room TV remote wouldn't change channel (batteries were good). Office staff friendly and helpful. Overall very good experience.

The hot tub was well maintained, and all the appliances worked fine. It's located close to Gatlinburg which is great, yet still tucked away in the beautiful landscape.

Another perfect getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We got to see two bears while staying here! The cabin is very private and very clean. Several visitors of the bear persuasion came up on the deck in the night so you might want to put a chair at the top of the stairs for early warning, especially if you use the grill. We have stayed with Mountain Laurel Chalets about 5 times in the last year and they never disappoint. Excellent cabins and terrific customer service!

Cute Cabin

Nice view, relatively close to hiking trails, comfortable, and clean. The kitchen is a bit small but worked okay for cooking lite meals for two. And the hot top was nice after a long hike. Pinetop felt secluded even though there are other homes in the area.

Cute and cozy cabin, hot tub did not warm up fully

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at Pinetop! The cabin is decorated so cute and was really cozy and clean. Our daughter loved the loft upstairs and having her own bathroom. The en-suite bathroom in the main bedroom was so nice and convenient. We had only two issues during our stay: one being that the hot tub was finally warm on our last night and even then was only 98 degrees. The TV in the main bedroom had a cable remote but no cable box, the cable cord was plugged into the TV but just hanging. That ended up being okay because we really only used the living room TV but the bedroom TV is larger so it would’ve been nice to use it if we had a rainy day. Luckily the weather was great for us and we were out most of the time enjoying the beauty of Tennessee!

Lock your car

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of four (two adults and two children) enjoyed our stay at Pine-top. The unit was very clean. The hot tub worked great. Beautiful view. Great location- Close to downtown Gatlinburg & the National Park. There could have been more explicit directions in the check in information to LOCK YOUR CAR while in the driveway. A bear opened our car door while it was in the driveway and climbed through it. Luckily it only caused minimal damage. We frequently spotted bears in the yard. One complaint is that there was trash all over the ground by the gated trash cans by the road. I called management and was told it would be taken care of, but it was not. To me, this was additional “bear bait”.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My daughters and I had a really nice time. I'm only joking about the bears. I love wildlife, although we only saw 2 turkeys! I am not sure what would have happened if we actually saw bears! The house was clean and had everything we needed. Two small nitpicks: the outside lights weren't working (or I couldn't figure them out), and there is a pillow on the sofa that has down filling....that thing needs to go!! The little feather ends stick out and scratch your skin! I was so ready to vanish that thing!! I think the view in the fall once leaves have gone down would be much better, but otherwise, nice, quiet location.
