Our stay at King of the Mountain Cabin was incredible! The cabin easily accommodated our large group, and the space was perfect for gathering and relaxing. The mountain views were absolutely breathtaking and we even spotted a bear, which made the trip even more memorable!The location is ideal, just a short drive from Main Street, yet peaceful and private enough to really enjoy the beauty of the Smoky Mountains. The host and owner were very responsive and accommodating throughout our stay, which made everything even better.I highly recommend King of the Mountain Cabin to anyone looking for a spacious, scenic, and well managed getaway in the Great Smoky Mountains.

Family Vacay

Took my mother (88), husband, Son's, wives and kids range to age 2! And we all had a great time together . Lots of fun things to do. Everyone saw a bear in the woods. The only thing I would change was the driveway, a little bit on the steep side, but it is in the mountains.

Great Family Reunion spot

We thoroughly enjoyed the property. The kids played the games and hide and seek, the adults played games and enjoyed the view. Our only difficulty was the driveway; otherwise it was an excellent property and one we would want to return to.

Great house with many fun things to do for children. Wish there had been some area for outdoor play. The steepness of the driveway was a bit of a concern, but all cars were able to navigate during our weeks' stay. We really enjoyed!

Beautiful house conveniently located to downtown Gatlinburg restaurants and hiking spots. Once you get to the house it feels like you are in a secluded, private mountain getaway. The view from the deck is amazing. The owner is very responsive and flexible. I would definitely recommend.

Great stay in the Smokies

We had a great week with family in the Smokies. The rental was lovely. The drive up the mountain and the drive-way is quite daunting, but the rental is close to downtown and very convenient to all the attractions. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out and so nice for each bedroom to have its own bathroom. We had a bear visit the deck one morning so that was exciting. Overall, we had a great stay!

Hate the driveway

The cabin was absolutely beautiful and had every thing we needed. However, it is not handicapped friendly. The main entrance steps are hard to climb for any one with any mobility issues. All the showers are in a step over tub. They did provide us with a slide over shower chair with is the only way my husband and myself (age 75) could use the shower. The driveway is awful. Very steep. The road up to the cabin is awful. Many turns, no guardrails. Very nerve wracking. The road to the left coming out of the driveway is much better. Plenty of bedrooms and bath rooms. My grandchildren loved the game room. Very nice outside porch area. Kitchen well stocked. The hot tub was great. The check in process was easy. Even though we loved the cabin, we will not be back due to the drive way and the road leading to the cabin.

A Thanksgiving to Remember!

We booked King of the Mountain for Thanksgiving because we wanted to rent a cabin that was big enough to COMFORTABLY hold all 16 of us, and this rental did not disappoint. There was ample seating for everyone- even on the deck (which is where we ended up eating our Thanksgiving dinner). The teens loved the pool table, arcade machine, video games, and even the poker table! The house is in a great location, we had someone drop us off at the bottom of the hill if we wanted to spend time in town without worrying about parking, and it was easy to avoid the Gatlinburg traffic to get to Pigeon Forge by taking the bypass. And you can't beat the view. Simply spectacular. Bedrooms- first floor master was perfect for my 80 year old parents, and the fact that each bedroom had its own bath was great! The driveway- this was my biggest source of anxiety before the trip, but as I drove around the area, I realized that almost all of the driveways up in the mountains were steep! It only took a bit to figure out how to best maneuver and park, and it really wasn't an issue at all. We comfortably parked 6 vehicles (1 minivan, 2 large SUVs, 2 small SUVs and 1 sedan). Pulling out of the driveway was not an issue as everyone drive really slowly on the road. After staying, my anxiety about the driveway dropped from a 10 to a 3! Kitchen was fully stocked and beds were comfortable. Communication was excellent with host and we had no issues! Would stay here again without any reservations!

Outdated, dirty, old house

We were not comfortable at all, the bed sheets were dirty, comforter looks like 10 years old and wearing off, sofas were dirty and smell terrible, all the furniture were broken, anything you touch falls off, deck was so old and dirty, couldn't seat there to enjoy the view. We had small kids and wanted to watch tv but it didn't work. Wifi connection was very poor, didn't get wifi downstairs at all. Kitchen had coffee machine but didn't work, many of the supplies were missing. In the picture there were swing on the deck but there wasn't any at all. Parking was difficult for 5 cars and the description says you could park 7 cars? Nothing like it described and showing in the picture. Everything outdated, broken, and old. We wanted to leave as soon as we saw the place, but we already paid for it and we were a large group to find anything in last minute was difficult. If someone would at least mention something in their review, it would have been great savings for us.

About the host

Hosted by Eric Bailey

Host profile image
Our family was looking to create a comfortable home away from home with an incredible mountain view and lots of amenities that has everything we needed except a suitcase. We hope you will enjoy your time here at King of the Mountain as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We have been looking at properties in the area for a long time. This neighborhood is highly sought after and hard to get in to. It's so convenient to everywhere you could want to go from either direction. The cabin itself had so much charm to begin with, we knew we could make it amazing. We are so pleased with what it has become.

What makes this property unique

Like our other vacation properties, we have created an amenity-rich environment in this cabin for spending quality time with the ones you care about the most. We've taken this house to a new level with the newly renovated kitchen and bathrooms, flooring, and all the extras we are known for.
