The location was a bit far from attractions. There was also a wasp nest near the jacuzzi and the TV in the pool table area kept randomly turning on. Other than that the Cabin was beautiful.

The cabin was very clean! My only issue with this cabin is the tvs wouldn’t stay connected to the WiFi. No phone service and when you connect to the WiFi, it doesn’t work. The remote batteries were dead. Even though it’s May. The cabins are cold and I would’ve preferred the fire places work. Could’ve upgraded the coffee pot to a Keriug or had both. The parking at the cabin is a one way in/out. I wouldn’t stay at this cabin again.

Reviewer Comments:
We enjoyed our stay at Secret Garden. Location was great for us to get to events we were attending. The only thing I would suggest to the owner is to upgrade the TV situation. It was March madness opening weekend so a lot of basketball on at night so a bigger TV would have been nice to be able to watch while playing pool. Nothing major but with how cheap TV’s are these days two larger TV’s would be easy upgrade. If it was different weekend we may not have ever turned them on. Wouldn’t stop me from staying there again though. lol

We had a great experience at this cabin. The location was great. Not far from downtown Gatlinburg. It was tucked away from the other cabins along the road in the Elk Springs Resort. More privacy which is what we like when renting. The amenities were great. I would recommend this cabin!

The cabin is beautiful and everything we could have asked for. The pool table needs some TLC as one of the rails was loose, but that's a minor issue. I highly recommend staying here to anyone looking to stay in the area. My favorite perk was the seclusion of this cabin compared to others in the resort.
