Great location. You can get to Gatlinburg, Sevierville, or Pigeon Forge on about 25 minutes. Plenty to do in the area for families. The cabin is nice. In a quiet location. We had a very relaxing stay.
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was in a peaceful location out of the city but not so far that it was a long drive to get to anything. Enjoyed coffee on the back porch overlooking the woods I would recommend!!
Property was tucked away among other properties but plenty of privacy. Game system was a pleasant surprise as the adults fought to play old school games. Having two king beds was awesome. Cabin included everything we could have needed.

Tennessee Mountain Cabin
Charming mountain cabin. Felt like you were in the trees /nature while having your morning coffee on the back deck. Pictures were accurate, but no rockers.Beds were comfortable.
This is the second time I have stayed in Tennessee and a cabin. This was a very nice roomy cabin with fun things for the kids to do. Great size rooms and beds. Even though we could view just the woods it was very nice and quiet. The cabin was extremely clean for being a cabin in the woods. Definitely would stay again. The host was very quick with responding to any questions we had.
Property was nice but starting to show some minor aging. Railings on the back deck need repaired but I would still recommend someone staying. The Property is priced very reasonable.
We love our stay here the cabin was wonderful, with exception on the down stairs balcony. The balcony is in need of so fixing, rotten hand rails and miss picket was not safe for my 2 year old granddaughter. Other then that it was a beautiful cabin!!
This was our first time to TN. We had a great time. The cabin was beautiful. We did have a hiccup getting in when we arrived but a quick phone call to owner and she was able to get us in.
We didn’t know much about the area. In the future we would stay closer to Pigeon Forge or Gaitlinburg. Cabin is 30 minutes from those areas so we had a lot of driving.
Nice cabin. Secluded, heavily wooded. 20-25 mins to Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg. Cabin well equipped and appointed. 2 king beds, 2 Jacuzzis, & hot tub on upper level deck. Cabin was "as advertised". Everything worked. Owner/host was accessible with answers to questions, including immediately at arrival when I didn't push the house symbol button first on the keypad before entering the actual code.

Was not made aware of new construction.
The cabin was pretty and the host was great to communicate with. However the cleanliness of the cabin was not very good. Also wasn’t made aware of the new construction right in front of the cabin.. all we heard all week was a cabin being built not really relaxing.

Beautiful Cabin
The cabin was beautiful but has a long list of repairs and cleaning needed. Overall we greatly enjoyed our stay but with the house lock not working upon arrival and finding the cabin to be very dirty it made for an uncomfortable first day. Amanda was very honest and gracious to work though some of the issues with us. Would not stay again unless there was confirmed improvements to the cleanliness of the cabin and repairs made.

Thank you for your honest and candid feedback Andrew. I am happy to report that I have hired a new cleaning crew and completed many repairs, including a new door lock.
This was a very cute cabin with great potential. We loved the layout of the homeThe roads were paved almost all the way up.
There were significant issues with cleanliness and door access, which was dissappointing. Owner needs to assess this property and have maintenance/cleaning and repairs done.
We love the Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlingburg area of Tennessee and are lucky to own such a wonderful mountain cabin. We enjoy the relaxing times we have at our cabin and all of the outdoor adventures outside our doorsteps.
