We loved the property and the local bear. Everything was great. We would stay again. I love the privacy. The only issue we had was no grill available so cooking was a bit hard for grilled meat but we made due. The host was very attentive when I reached out My kids loved the games. Thanks for a great stay!!

Nice little cabin

We really enjoyed our stay here! The view was better than we expected and we even saw a bear from the balcony one morning. It was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Be prepared for the driveway. It’s a fairly steep gravel driveway that winds it’s way up to the cabin so if it’s pouring down rain or there’s ice and snow you may have a hard time. Worth it few the view though. Would definitely stay again.

Absolutely beautiful

Amazing hidden gem with a beautiful view of the mountains, from the hot tub you see a beautiful cut out of the mountain tops and not too far from gatlinburg or peigon forge. The property is just as it is listed by the pictures. And the owner is in consistent contact to make sure your trip is perfect. Beyond recommend this place for a nice couple getaway

Family time

We enjoyed our stay. Cabin was great for our last minute booking and the price was very fair. The road is a mountain road but that’s to be expected when booking a cabin in the smokies. We have a smaller SUV and didn’t have any trouble. We are a lounging, cuddling family. My only suggestion would be living room furniture that’s a bit more comfy. The communication with the host was great. We would definitely stay there again.

Hands Down, the best BnB we’ve ever stayed at!

I don’t even know where to begin; the property is gorgeous, peaceful, cozy, clean and in the perfect location (just far enough from town to enjoy the quiet mountain privacy but close enough that it’s not an difficult to get there). The pictures absolutely do not do it justice, this is an incredibly gorgeous and very comfortable property! The views are unmatched, coffee on the deck in the morning overlooking the smokey mountains, how much better can it get than that??? There is no question, I definitely see ourselves booking this property again and again!

Beautiful Cabin!

The cabin was modern,very beautiful and peaceful. Looks exactly like the pictures. Hot tub was very nice and stayed hot. It has a beautiful view of the mountains as well. It was close to everything but far enough to get away from the busyness of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The roads are a little rocky getting to the cabin, but that’s to be expected and we had no issues with our small little car that we rented. Highly recommend this place, and would definitely book again!

Little slice of hidden heaven

Fantastic one level cabin! Everything was new and clean. The beds were a dream. The property manager was responsive and great to deal with. My only issue is the property is so nice we will never manage to get another holiday booked here! It was just incredibly restful and we had an amazing time! Thank you!

Pleasant stay in Pigeon Forge

My friend, brother and I had a wonderful stay at Gisele's place.The location is close to the main artery (Route 321) for various attractions in Pigeon Forge. It's about 15 minutes to Gatlinburg.It is easy to get to the National Park through the Gatlinburg bypass to get 'feel' the beauty of the Smokies even before you get there.Getting to the lodging takes you about 0.3 of a mile up a rough gravel mountain road. Gisele is very upfront about the road, but it is worth the effort.From the elevate porch (with hot tub), there is a table and have a patio meal or nestle into the Adirondack chairs and enjoy the beautiful view of the Smokies (including Mount LeConte) to the south. (The hot tub was good temp, but the jets were a bit tame.) Inside there is a table for dinners or jigsaw puzzles, etc. The kitchen is adequately stocked with nice pans and a drawer full of essential utensils. There is a limited supply of plates and glasses, etc. so you might have to hand wash some items between dishwasher uses to keep up with the meals.The refrigerator is on the smaller side, but adequate for stocking up your supplies from the Food City grocery nearby in Pigeon Forge. (Ask the cashier to scan their coupon code at checkout to get the same deals as the locals.)The master bedroom is generously sized, and the second bedroom has two beds in a slightly tighter space.There is a ping pong table outside in the converted car port area.Gisele is available to make your stay a pleasant one.

0/10 do not recommend. THIS WAS OUR HONEY MOON. We ran out of propane night one. Owners considered allowing us to shower in a dirty cabin an “upgrade”. They said we could stay in the “upgrade” cabin until we got propane back but then we would have to move back to our original cabin. We went three days without being able to take a hot shower or cook in our own cabin. Was it the owners fault? Probably not but we were very unhappy in how they chose to handle the situation. THE OWNERS DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE CUSTOMER’S AND DID NOT WANT TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT!

We enjoyed our stay here! The reviews had us a bit concerned about the driveway but it was fine. If you live anywhere rural, you will feel like you are driving up your driveway at home. It had a great view, friendly host, and looks exactly as pictured. Hot tub needed a bit of cleaning but we still enjoyed soaking in it. Ping pong table and foosball was especially fun.

The cabin was fine. Close to Dollywood and all other attractions! Easy and quick communication with the host. The biggest thing I feel like others should know is the drive up to the cabin. It’s dirt and rocks, steep, and pretty rough with washed out places and fairly deep divits. We were able to drive our van up but it wasn’t pleasant. I would have definitely hated to drive it up if there had been rain or if we had met another vehicle on the way up or down as there was no room for two cars. And there are at least two other homes sharing the drive. Most definitely needs an extra layer of rocks or paving unless driven with a 4 wheel drive as someone else suggested. Also, because of the drought in Tennessee, we were asked to be courteous of our shower times as we could run out of water. We did just fine but it would have been a pain to find another place to stay if that had been the case.

We are in our 60’s and married 4 months ago. We found this gem to stay and it was everything they said it would be. It made a “special place” for our honeymoon! We definitely will be going back many more times. The driveway was a little rough, but as we were leaving there was a tractor smoothing it out. We drove our Honda CRV and it made it fine. The Host is great with a fast response, The whole place was very clean, we enjoyed the Hot tub and sitting on the deck enjoying the Mountain Air. I would definitely give this a A rating.
