We absolutely loved our stay! We loved it so much that we spent more time in the cabin than any other vacation. Pictures don’t do it justice. There is a beautiful view from the patio. It is close to the strip, yet tucked away in a perfect spot for a mountain getaway. Jackie has thought of every detail and she is a gracious host.

We found this home very welcoming. It was perfectly decorated for Christmas. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked going above and beyond anything I’ve experienced. It was very convenient to not have to run to the store for the small things. Everything we needed was right there. Our host was great. She answered all of my questions promptly. I highly recommend this beautiful home.

Location, location, location! The house itself is wonderful, cozy, peaceful, and well stocked for families with kids of all ages. It’s a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home (2 kings, 1 queen, plus a pull‑out in the living room) right above the Little Pigeon Forge River—adds a serene, private vibe even though you’re within a short distance to Gatlinburg attractions.You’re also just a hop and skip away from Hillbilly Golf and the Moonshine Mountain Coaster, plus Ripley’s Aquarium, Anakeesta, Ober Gatlinburg, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park nearby!Jackie was a pleasure to work with, friendly, responsive, and accessible. Thank you, Jackie, for sharing such a lovely retreat!

This cozy little house is just wonderful. This was our second time staying and it’s just as lovely now as it was in May. We take our fur babies along with us and they feel right at home here and it does NOT smell like a “pet friendly” house, very clean and tidy. The beds are so comfy and even more comfy than my very own bed at home. This house is stocked full of anything you’d need and even more than you could ever think of. During our stay we were in a severe storm threat and the owner Jackie sent us a message to let us know to be aware. She’s such a kind soul and great to work with. If you’re looking for a nice little get away, stay with Jackie. You won’t regret it.
