Ladies Escape!

This was the perfect setting for a relaxing ladies week. It was peaceful, clean, and so very comfortable! We loved our mornings and evenings sitting in the polywood deck chairs, starring at the mountains and drinking our coffee and wine!Vicky was the perfect host! She was available and communicated with us as much as we needed to. We had one minor issue that she made sure to remedy right away!The price for this stay was perfect! If you want the Hilton, go stay at a Hilton! Don't save money by finding a reasonable price and then trash the host and their properties! None of the less than 4 star reviews were proven true at this property! Everything was clean and maintained!

Great Quite and Cozy Stay!

We had a great quite stay for a long weekend over Valentines day with a group of friends. Host was easy to communicate with on anything we needed. The drive up to the cabin is a bit steep with a few sharp turns but our cars (suv and car) managed just fine.

Christmas in the Smokies

Beautiful views! Property as described! Plenty of space for everyone to have their own space. Parking is a tad difficult as the driveway is on a steep incline and only accessible from one direction. Hosts were great to work with!

Guys Trip to the Mountains

My buddies and I try to make it out to Tennessee once a year for some bourbon, bears, and beer. This year, we had a great time, as the cabin was absolutely amazing—much better in person than in pictures. The layout was perfect for us, and the scenery was excellent.

Fabulous!

Our stay was great. The owners were great and quick to respond. Everything was clean, looked exactly like the pictures. The only thing you should know is that we couldn’t find a pizza place to deliver there. So if you want takeout, pickup before heading to cabin!

Nice but disappointing

Nice cabin.however after stay I mentioned to owner several issues.. No grill as advertised in photos, beds had dirty sheets and shower curtain moldy. Owner acted surprised and said would address it for next people. Afterwards i read reviews from last two families staying before us,and they had the exact same complaints. Disappointed that owner was aware and didnt address before our arrival, then seemed to "play dumb"about it. Would not recommend because of this..

Price needs to be lowered or updates need to be made

The cabin is extremely outdated. The floors inside the cabin are filthy. My white socks are filthy from the floors and there’s a foul odor upstairs. The dishes were not clean and still wet, as if someone had just rinsed them off and put them back in the cabinet without drying. The hot tub half works, meaning two of the jets do not work. There is no gas grill as advertised in the picture, so they need to update those. The prices need to be lowered on this property, or there needs to be money put back into it for quality to match price. This is a lesson learned for my family.

Peaceful stay in the Smokies

Overall, my family and I had a very nice stay here for a week in June 2024. The rooms were large, and the cabin was laid out well. The air conditioning was ice cold. There is a small fenced area to take the dog out and good parking. However, the pictures of this listing are outdated. The deck is rotting in some spots, it slopes where the hot tub is, and the paint is flaking pretty badly. Trees have grown in, so the view in the pictures is only seen from one of the upstairs bedrooms. There is no gas grill as seen in the pictures. The owner said they replaced it with a charcoal camp style due to the bears. The inside has had some wear and is a little dated - but it's still a nice place, I just wish it was more honestly represented in the photos. Several lights were out, base boards needed dusting, and we had to clean mold off the shower curtain, but sheets and dishes were clean. You need to check in at their rental office at the bottom of the hill during their hours, and you have to take your trash to their dumpsters there as well. No recycling was available. The owner and the management company was quick to respond when we had issues with the internet, unfortunately you can only have 5 devices (4 of which are the TVs) on the internet at one time but the TVs worked perfectly for streaming.

Big no

The house was very dirty, bed sheets were nasty with hair on it, extremely minimum kitchen supplies, no gas grill, no gas in gas fire pit, we stayed for 4 nights and only two kitchen garbage bags were left for us. So, if you want to rent this house, make sure you bring everything and I mean everything from home.

Nothing Short of Amazing!

Everything was smooth sailing. From booking all the way down to checking out. The location was beautiful, especially the deck view in the morning. We did have a slight issue with the WiFi but it was quickly resolved through effective communication. Overall, I would definitely recommend this property that wants to stay somewhere secluded with beautiful views!!

One of the best cabin experience we had recently. Everything was perfect from cleanliness to views. You will have amazing view of mountains in the morning. We also got to see the black bear while driving upto cabin. Overall it was pretty amazing, cabin had everything we needed and the directions were pretty clear as well. Will definitely visit again!!

Quiet and relaxing cabin with a great view!

The cabin was perfect for my needs! The rooms were all large and had good views. We stayed a week and enjoyed spending time watching the clouds rise and move through the overlooking mountains and winding down in the hot tub. I also enjoyed the gas fireplace! The cabin is about a 15-20 minute drive to downtown Gatlinburg.

Beautiful Property

We chose this cabin for our Gatlinburg trip that we wanted to take during our daughter’s 2nd birthday. We have a dog that is family to us and finding a property that she was welcomed at was important. We found this property and knew it would fit our needs perfectly! The cabin was beautiful, the location was perfect, we will definitely consider this cabin for any future stays!

Wonderful Family Get away

We met our adult boys in this wonderful cabin, to celebrate an early Christmas. The view was fabulous. We hoped for snow on one night, we didn’t get it at cabin but it did snow on the mountains which was beautiful. Nearest grocery was about 20 minutes so not far at all. We went into Gatlinburg a couple of days as well. Just a short drive beyond the grocery store. We also enjoyed the hot tub. Owner was quick to respond to emails and texts. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks for sharing your home!
