We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was everything we wanted and more. Would have loved for the jacuzzi to have been enclosed due to the mosquitoes outside of that a 10/10 for sure. Would definitely recommend/rebook:
This was an amazing property. The whole process was very easy from the time I booked it until I checked out. It was clean, everything we used worked. The beds were comfortable. The hot tub was clean and very relaxing. It was on the mountain but not real high up. If you want to see the views then this isn’t the cabin for you but It was the perfect location for us only about a 5 minute drive to downtown Gatlinburg. We come to Gatlinburg quite often, and this is one the of the best cabins we have stayed in. There is also a little market within walking distance. Also pet friendly. We would definitely stay again. Bonus we saw 2 bears and 2 cubs.
Very comfortable well laid out with a very homey feel would definitely stay here again

Great Location
Cabin was in a great location and was very clean. Host communicated well and made the check in process great. Cabin is in a great location and super close to the park and gatlinburg.
Was a wonderful stay for our family of 7 in Gatlinburg! Plenty of room for everyone! My 6yo and I enjoyed the puzzle one morning when eveyrone else wanted to sleep in, and we played the uno game as well! My only notes would be that some beach towels would have been nice for the hot tub. (And we never did figure out where the lightswitch to the hot tub area lights were.) I would have liked some extra blankets, myself and a couple of the kiddos got cold, but my husband, and the other kiddos, preferred the thin blankets!
Beautiful cabin, bears are very active so definitely follow the bear safety guidelines as we encountered multiple during our stay. The yard is small but enough area for pets to use. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and would love to come back.
Cabin was about 5 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg. It was nice to be able go down in the morning and return to the cabin an be able to do back down in the evening.
Yes, I loved the kitchen the house was very beautiful I loved every bit of that house. I loved that it was surrounded by woods. I had a phenomenal time and experience. I will be booking again in the future!
The cabin was absolutely beautiful. Newly remodeled, and with queen and king sized beds in each room! We found that most other rentals list bunk beds and pull out couches as 'beds', so the fact that there were 4 actual adult sized beds was awesome. The cabin was so close to town, only a 10-12 minute drive to most anywhere we wanted to go. That said, the hills and trees provided a degree of privacy that was also appreciated.
Hands down the nicest VRBO we’ve ever stayed in anywhere in the country! It actually looks better in person than online! We’ll not stay in the Smokeys again without checking availability here first!
This property is very close to the national park entrance, which is one of the reasons we chose this house. We also wanted a pet friendly cabin. The property was extremely clean, kitchen was clean well stocked, and it provided everything we needed.I would recommend the owners place memory foam toppers on the beds in the rooms as they were extremely hard.Also, if bringing your dogs, there isn’t a suitable walking area since the house is on a busy road.All in all, it was a good stay.

Thank you for your feedback. The property is situated on top of a small hill with a driveway that is between the cabin and Ski Mountain Rd, the cabin is not situated on a major road and is a bit of a distance from the main road. There is plenty of space around the cabin to walk your dogs. Maps can be found at Mypawsonvacation…..
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this exceptional cabin in Gatlinburg. From the moment I arrived, I found it welcoming, well-equipped, and with a warm atmosphere that made the experience truly memorable. The location and design invite relaxation and enjoyment of the beauty of the Smoky Mountains.I would like to especially highlight the attention provided by Tony: always attentive, ready to answer any questions, and helpful with whatever was needed. His professionalism and kindness greatly contributed to making the stay so enjoyable.As a suggestion to further improve guest comfort, I would recommend considering the installation of a garbage disposal in the kitchen sink. This would make daily cleanup much easier and prevent minor inconveniences with food waste.In summary, the cabin exceeded my expectations, and I am already planning to return soon. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality place in Gatlinburg.Thank you for a great experience!
The home was extremely clean, spacious & has a well-equipped kitchen that we used to cook several family meals! The wraparound porch & hottub were a great space, too & have a partial waterfall view. My only note is that this property is advertised as being very dog-friendly from a dog-friendly company but the property is built into the side of a mountain (thus no yard space) and right on a busy road without a shoulder. There was no where on or near the property to walk the dogs and the porch has a large opening without a gate or door.
The property is as described. However , please note that the property is up a significant incline in the driveway and required us to put our ramp van in low gear to climb. See pics below. The mattresses are memory foam and suck you right down into them. AC works great and has the most well appointed kitchen of any of the VRBO properties we have stayed in in the past. Please pay close attention to the warnings about bears as we had a young juvenile go through our minivan once when it was unlocked and attempted a 2nd time the following day.
This was a great place to stay the location was so convenient to downtown. There are some improvements that could be made an ice maker installed in the freezer or at least some extra ice trays and a container to put ice in. The bathrooms need so serious storage. There are pedestal sinks and little roller cart was not adequate. Although very clean and neat we had to put our cosmetic bags and bathroom items on the floor. The towels could use an upgrade too. For VRBO prices it needs bigger and thicker towels in the bathroom they were small and thin. But all in all it was a great stay, the cabin was super clean and well stocked with items need for the stay.
Beautiful cabin in the woods! The house was very clean and well maintained- everything looks brand new. The ramp into the main entrance and step in shower made it handicap friendly for my mother during our stay. I loved the A-frame style architecture and all the natural wood finishes. It really gives you a true cabin experience- especially if you get as many bear sightings as we did right from the windows! There was three bedrooms downstairs with two full bathrooms and an additional bedroom with another bathroom with a shower upstairs. The house had everything we needed! I had a question during our stay and the owner got back to me within minutes, which we really appreciated! The driveway to get in is steep, but this is the case for almost every property in this area. We enjoyed that we got the cabin experience but were still just a quick 8 min drive into the heart of the touristy strip of Gatlinburg. Great place and would recommend!
