We had an amazing stay at this cabin! The space was perfect for our large group it comfortably slept all 16 of us with plenty of room to spread out. The cabin was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully set up for both relaxation and fun. The pool and hot tub were definite highlights and were enjoyed by everyone. It was so nice to have those amenities right on the property, especially for winding down in the evenings. The common areas were spacious and inviting, making it easy for our whole group to gather together without feeling crowded. We used the cabin for the close proximity to the convention center for the local teen convention. Everything we needed was provided, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming. This cabin was ideal for a family gathering or group getaway, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Family Getaway

Was a great family vacation and the property matched the listing. Terry was a FANTASTIC communicator even before our trip and after and for that I am grateful. We loved the location and the 7pm bear we saw every night! Already have plans on coming back! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Exactly what we needed

The hosts were great and very accommodating, the location was excellent. The cabin had everything and the theater room and game room passed the time the one day it rained. Oh and we saw several bears during our stay one even raided the bed of some guy’s truck and tore open his tote.Definitely would recommend staying here!

Perfect Family Getaway

We took a family vacation with our parents and children. It was the perfect place for a 3 generation group. We enjoyed the games, pool/hot tub, and walking downtown. The fenced in yard was enjoyed by both the toddlers and dogs. There were several bear sightings! I’ve already recommended the property to friends. If we make it back to the area we will most definitely be staying here again.

Family Time

We were looking for a place that would provide us with enough entertainment that we could “stay in” for the entire weekend and just enjoy each other and this cabin was perfect. My kids loved everything about this place and therefore we did too.

We totally enjoyed our stay here.The house was clean and comfortable. We really thought we would be stuck in the house all day Christmas day thinking nothing would be open but almost everything was open it was a great Christmas VacationThe pool was way too cold for the kids to go in it but the pool room was nice and warm, however the pool itself was freezing so the kids got in and got out and never used it again.The two Bears (one is named Freddy) walking by the house and the two coyotes walking by the house were such a surprise and we loved it. Not often do kids get to experience a Bear or Coyote in its natural habitat.The tree was perfect for our Christmas celebration.The walk was a little harder going back to the cabin since its uphill and since I had hurt my foot the day before we left we found it easier to pay the 10-20 for parking in town. The house will definitely not disappoint you definitely convenient to downtown we totally enjoyed our stay here.

Great Holiday Getaway

Excellent house within walking distance to Downtown Gatlinburg and the Gatlinburg Trail trailhead. Saw a bear while walking back to the house from downtown the first night! Game room and theater room, indoor pool and hot tub on deck made for fun activities for all ages 2-72.

Great for Families and Friends

We came down for a long winter weekend and chose this home because of the indoor pool. It was perfect for the kids to play in while the adults relaxed on the other side of the large windows. The rooms were spacious and the media room was a great separate space. We would absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a place in Gatlinburg.

Great Stay in Gatlinburg

This house is in a great neighborhood. We were able to see bears on a daily basis near and around us. The inside of the house is clean and hospitable. The pool and Jacuzzi made a wonderful addition for adults while the kids played upstairs in the game room or pool table.

I love the location, everything is beautiful. Everything walking distance . It’s a a lot of black bears around here ! Especially around sunrise and sunset! But they okay . They don’t get near you at all. Something about the place that I need to mention besides it’s really beautiful place to stay. Can you please add a tissue box in the bathrooms and some hunger to hung our clothes ? Can you provide more access for electricians? Like USB? Thanks!!
