This is the 2nd time staying in the cabin and it was perfect. Plenty of space, clean, comfortable beds, everything we needed. This is the only place we will stay when traveling to the Gatlinburg area. And we had some black bears come through a couple of mornings, which was awesome.

3 Generation Family Vacation

This cabin was excellent for our family's vacation. The cabin was clean, welcoming and comfortable. The hot tub was a wonderful way to relax after a day of hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains. The location was convenient for a quick walk into town for restaurant options and attractions.

Friends Getaway

I have rented multiple cabins over the years in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area. This is by far my favorite. It's a short drive to downtown, (walking distance if you are able to walk hills), great location, very clean, many extras including great back yard for kids to play. I also can't say enough about the property owners. Very informative and almost immediate responses when I had questions. Highly recommend this cabin!

Gatlinburg Cabin

Cabin was beautiful and comfortable. Our only conceerns were: a) did not receive access key code as promptly as I was hoping and b) no condiments in fridge. The second may be understandable because all food has to be disposed of when leaving and ypou don't want things spoiling but it makes late check-ins a little inconvenient when trying to rustle up somethingto eat. Otherwise, the cabin and surroundings were outstanding. Location was great even if walk back up to the cabin from trolley stop is a bit steep. From grandparents to parents to kids (ages 4 & 6), we had a blast. Hot tub was lovely at the end of a long day.

Nice Property

We enjoyed staying here and the hot tub was so nice after busy days in town. It is super close to the Aquarium, Anakeesta, and the Island in Pigeon Forge. (The island is a must!) Everything was also clean. However, the beds are super hard and uncomfortable. The TV in the living room was outdated and had no app capabilities, only basic cable. The bedroom TV's did have Netflix. The kitchen was nicely stocked with pots and pans but only one roll of paper towels, some dish soap, and a sponge were supplied. There was only one dish towel and no other cleaning towels to wipe anything down. While not required, it is sometimes nice to have foil, saran wrap, and laundry soap, which we ended up grabbing at Walmart that is 30 minutes away. Overall we enjoyed our stay but it could use a few more amenities and updated beds and TV.
