The views from this cabin are absolutely stunning! The cabin is furnished with everything you need. The fact that you can bring your pets is a real plus. We will definitely be back to this beautiful cabin. The owner is very easy to work with.
House location is great, right between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Everything was clean and new, we were very impressed! Loved the gas fire place and hot tub during the chilly weekend. Owner super helpful and responsive...thank you!
I cannot say enough good things about this property and the owner. This was a repeat stay for us and we’ll be back again. The cabin is stunning as well as the beautiful views. It is a perfect place to relax & recharge. I love that my dog can be outside safely off leash to roam around in the fenced in area. The bathroom showers are so gorgeous and the beds are comfortable. We slept better than we do at home! Stacy was available by text help with questions as they came up. Highly recommended this cabin.
The cabin was exactly as described. Stunning views, comfortable beds and furnishings, bear sitings - everything you want for a stay in the mountains! Owners were very communication prior to our stay and had everything stocked and ready for us upon arrival. A lot of thought was put into even the smallest details and we are so happy we found this gem.
This is our third time staying with the owners. We have stayed at the Cove twice and now first time at the retreat. They are always so accommodating and there when you need them. The best part is that our babies can come with us and the puppy yards make it so easy for potty time. We will continue to be returning guests. The view is also beautiful and it’s also cool for a chance to see bears.
Beautiful cabin, beautiful view! The owners were very nice and attentive to any questions that we had. We spent Christmas here and had a wonderful time as a Family. The cabin is everything as listed and so much more. We were lucky enough to see a beautiful rainbow from the deck also during our stay. We took a pop-up Christmas tree and enjoyed time around the fireplace. Thank you to the Mannings for being great hosts!
Nice, clean accomodations that are pet friendly. Wood floors throughout including stairs. (May need to watch senior or active pets on those if you have them, can be slick). Easy to clean, we were expected to vacuum up after our pets since they shed. Also, to know, pets are not allowed on the beds, bring pet bed with you. Everything still worked great for us. Only downside was road noise from a car show apparently when we stayed. View was beautiful, including a bear right off the deck. The fenced side yard connected with lowest deck level, which was also completely fenced, this was outstanding so the dogs could roam a little. Always supervised though since bears are around. Loved our stay.
