This is by far the best VRBO we ever stayed at, and we’ve stayed at a lot of places! Very clean, quiet, comfortable and close to lots of activities. We would definitely stay there again.
Great place to stay. Very quiet. The hosts were excellent.
We had a great experience at the cabin. We were in Knoxville for softball and it rained most of the weekend. Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you for your review Melissa. Sorry about the rain, but it sure does help keep East Tennessee nice and green for us. I hope you found some things to do in the cabin like playing on the classic arcade game, board games, foosball, or relaxing in the hot tub. Please bring your wonderful family back to visit us someday, and we will request sunnier weather for ya 😊.

The owners are absolutely lovely!!! Very accommodating. The home was clean, had everything we needed plus a little homemade treat for us, and so relaxing! You won’t be sorry for booking at the Little Ponderosa!!!
Beautiful location and close to so many great places to visit. We were able to see downtown Knoxville, maryville, the foothills, and Ijams nature center. We loved our cabin kitty and enjoyed the hot tub.
We were in town for the seaa world series and this property was perfect for us. My family and I including two dogs really enjoyed our stay. Very peaceful and relaxing place to unwind and enjoy. Easy drive to pigeon forge and gatilinburg from here. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Thank you for your great review Rich, and for pointing out one of our top features… convenience to everything in East Tennessee, especially Knoxville, Pigeon Forge, and the great Smoky Mountains. Thank you for taking such good care of the Little Ponderosa Cabin, and we hope to see you again someday.
It was a great getaway. Clean, fully equipped, comfortable. The yard games were fun. The barn kitties were adorable and loving, the property was nice and quiet. So private, yet, so close to downtown and everywhere else.

We enjoyed Lil Ponderosa because it was spotless and we felt at home immediately. We slept well in the king sized bed that is super comfortable. The location is in between Maryville and Knoxville which worked perfectly for our trip. We can’t wait to stay on the property again. Great experience.
This property including grounds and cabin are amazing. It is conveniently located near the city but you feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life. This was a much needed getaway with family to relax, make memories and appreciate nature!
Perfect spot. Close to everything but a rural feel. Great hosts as well. Highly recommend
