Great family home!

Great Expectations is a great property for a family. Lots of fun stuff for the kids to do. Also, contact with the host was phenomenal - she goes above and beyond to make sure everything is good for your stay. We were there with family and when asked, the kids said they wanted to stay at the cabin and play rather than go out. Would definitely stay here again. just wanted to stay at the cabin and play.

Beautiful and Cozy House

Highly recommend this home to stay with your family or friends. There are plenty of sleeping arrangements, great accommodations for young kids (high chair, pack n play, kitchen ware, toys), and overall clean and comfy home. The hosts were also great with communication before and during the stay, even helped with additional activity suggestions prior to our stay. We would book again, thank you for your hospitality!

Family time in the smokies

We had a wonderful stay at the property. The managers were very helpful and responsive when we need to reach them. We had to evacuate for one night due to the recent fire, but Megan was in contact with me through the whole ordeal to offer suggestions and support. We would recommend this rental to anyone looking for a wonderful place in the smokies.

Amazing cabin

We loved staying at this house. You don’t have the views but having amazing quiet and privacy. You feel surrounded by the woods, not other houses. The house is clean and well stocked and decorated. Jake and Megan were great to work with. Megan was checking in and willing to go the extra mile to help you make your trip perfect. Would definitely recommend!

It had been 15 years since my husband & I had been on vacation (honeymoon 15 yrs. ago the last time)! The cabin was outstanding! It had everything you could possibility need!! I traveled wirh my husband, our son, my brother-in-law, his wife, my sister-in-law, and her son (7 total people). We were able to make memorable family meals cooked at the cabin (all necessities were provided to make dinner) and eaten at the large dining table that allowed us to have great conversations, relax in the awesome hot tub, & reconnect by the campfire at night listening to the nature around us! The porch swing on the top deck was another great place to relax to read a book I found in the cabin's collection. The manager/owner of the cabin provided items not only for adults to enjoy. There were things for children of all ages (swings on patio area, cornhole, pool table, video games, movies for young and old, games, and variety of toys, etc.!! The cabin's seclusion is what was needed by this busy, non-stop, city school special education teacher/home caregiver who works 7 days a week! All pictures provided on website were very accurate! The manager was awesome, friendly, helpful, informative, and very personable when I contacted her to ask a question. I felt like I was talking to a friend or family member! We are driving home & I'm already planning my next trip back to the same cabin or to one of Around The Bends other 2 cabins because of the awesome experience! Thank you for the great 5 nights!

Wonderful

Everything was amazing. The host was very attentive with amazing communication from right when we booked until checkout. It was supposed to snow the day we left and she wrote me and offered a late checkout in case we needed one, which was greatly appreciated. The cabin was located in a great location. The hill to the cabin is a bit steep, but we had no problems getting up it. The cabin was very clean and spacious. The kids loved the game room and hot tub. We enjoyed sitting next to the fire and playing in the woods. The kitchen was well stocked and all the rooms were very cozy and comfortable. Everything was great! I highly recommend staying here.

Great Mountain Get Away

Great location in mountains, yet close enough for food and shopping expeditions. Cabin was accurately listed. Loved the big front porch with rocking chairs and swing. Rocking chair in Master bedroom was a plus. Nice hot tub and plenty of toys/games to play for all ages. Road to cabin was paved with a couple of sharp turns, but made it easily with a small car and a Colorado truck. It took a few days, but we eventually got used to the winding roads of TN. Owners were in constant communication if we needed anything. As it turned out we really didn't require any assistance and everything we needed for a relaxing vacation was already provided. We would definitely stay there again. We had a great week!

Great place to stay! The kitchen is the best of any place we've stayed. It has everything you need. The location is close to everything, but just enough away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There's plenty of room to eat together, hang out together, or find your own space if you need some quiet time. Lots of attention to details to make your stay the best no matter what age. My 7 yo son loved the Fly Guy chapter book that was there.

Amazing Cabin

This cabin was absolutely perfect for our group. We were in the area as part of my son’s senior trip with his 2 best friends and their moms, my friends. The kids, 16-18, had the absolute BEST time hanging out in the game room, exploring around the cabin, and swinging in the swings. The moms enjoyed a well stocked kitchen for cooking our meals and a comfy living room. I would absolutely recommend this location to anyone I know who is going to the area. Our hosts were easily reachable, friendly, and a pleasure to communicate with. As a teacher, I happily give this cabin and host an A!

The cabin was beautiful, so spacious and had so much to offer! My husband and I took our teenage son and his 3 friends here for his birthday.

Wonderful family getaway!

Everything was BEAUTIFUL, so clean, and so comfortable. We had an absolutely fabulous time! We cooked several times, and the kitchen was very well appointed—we had everything we needed! We did see a bear outside while we were there, which was a little scary for a sec since half our group was in the hot tub at the time, but it was absolutely fine, as the bear had no interest in us! It actually made our trip even better and a little more exciting! Overall, we would stay there every year going forward if it’s available again! We have stayed at several cabins, and this one was the most comfy, clean, cute, and convenient of all of them!

My goodness that driveway is steep!

Very secluded despite other houses nearby. The home was just as nice or better than expected. The layout was perfect for a large group. Multiple indoor spaces for varying interests, multiple porches and levels. Never felt crowded with 10 people from 1 to 69. The communication with the owners was prompt and courteous and all questions and issues handled immediately (some of the best customer service I've ever received). We would definitely rent again. The 3 Stars for cleanliness was due to an issue downstairs. The bed frame felt flimsy so when we looked for the problem there was a lot of trash under the bed (beer cans, soda bottles, chip bags, etc) The cross piece at the head of the bed does not lock and was loose. we reconnected it and supported it because it would not lock in.and the bed frame needs a center support. An often overlooked issue that causes the bed to sag some and will cause excessive wear on the mattress. Everything else was spot on.

Perfect Cabin for family!!

The Great Expectations exceeded ours!! The description and pictures are accurate. Communication with hosts was excellent and they provided clear and detailed information and instructions, as well as shared local recommendations that was helpful. The cabin has everything we needed for a family vacation, we enjoyed being able to sit together in the spacious kitchen, we watched movies together, played games downstairs, and enjoyed an evening of hot tub and bonfire. The cabin had plenty of room for the eight members of our family. The one tiny downside would be not having a Mountain View from porch, but there’s a gorgeous view that we enjoyed every time we drove to and from, and the privacy and seclusion we felt was wonderful. There are other cabins around but you can’t really see and it felt like our own special place. Cabin was very clean, even the porch areas were clean, and furniture very comfy. We would definately stay here again, or look into their other properties. 1000% recommend!
