Great and Convenient

Came to town for a volleyball tournament with family. Location was great. Check in was easy and directions were perfect. We used Waze and it was spot on. 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms so everyone had their own bathroom. Convenient and comfortable. We loved our stay. Will be back next year for next years tournament.

Hill Family Vacation

We had a lovely stay. Everything was clean and ready for our stay. We had everything we needed. We were 5 minites from attractions and had no issues getting anywhere. Also, when one of is left a phone after checking out. We were able to communicate to the owner to get back in and retrieve it with no issue. I would definitely return.

Family Weekend

We drove from Ohio and our daughter and her family came from Florida. It’s about half way for us. The location is absolutely beautiful! The cabin had plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck the most. We don’t have anything bad to say about the place. Be prepared for the steep driveway. It’s not bad once you get used to it. We would definitely recommend to others.

Not what was expected

Intense smell of bleach when we first walked in. Took several hours to air out. Furniture is old and worn. Sofa and chair fabric is not clean. Decor is bare. If you are looking for cabin decorated in the mountain theme, this is not it. Good location. Easy to get to Gatlinburg parkway.

Smoky bear Lodge

Very nice property with amenities! Hot tub, dishes, plants of room for 13 people on our trip! We had a great time. Our lights went out as well as the neighbors due to bad weather but the owner of us very available and even offered to get us flashlights. We were updated every hour overall will definitely consider booking at this lodge again. Every property has pros and cons and pros outweigh all cons of this property. Personally, the only con was the driveway, which was very steep and difficult to drive into. This is my new in comparison to the actual property in our stay in the Smokies.

The property was clean and in a great location . My primary complaints revolve around the driveway and some of the furniture. The driveway is extremely challenging and potentially dangerous to navigate, especially when backing out. It’s positioned an incline, requiring someone to spot you to ensure no oncoming traffic is present before you can safely exit - a process that felt quite precarious. Additionally, the kitchen chairs cushion were dirty, and the couch, loveseat,and armchair in the living room are in need of replacement. Despite these issues, my overall stay was great.
