We do not accept pets in any of cabins without specific written approval from management. Only those dogs that have specific and formal training as a SERVICE dog will be allowed in our cabins. Emotional support animals are not accepted.
Common Concerns: *Road Conditions: Some of our cabins are on steep, narrow, curvy, mountain roads. If you are concerned about road conditions to get to a cabin, please feel free to ask us! None of our cabins require a 4 wheel drive under normal weather conditions but some do in inclement weather. *TV & WiFi: We do have TV's and WiFi in most all of our cabins. There are times when heavy cloud cover, weather systems, mountains, or trees will cause problems with the signals. We always want our guests to have the comforts they want on vacation, but there are times we cannot control this problem. *Pests & Wildlife: Here in the Smoky Mountains, we have lots of native bugs and wildlife. All of our cabins are treated for pests, but there are times you will find bugs or even have trouble with bugs. Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away and unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes. Please never feed, taunt or approach any wildlife. This is their home and we are the visitors. *There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc.

We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your girls’ weekend! Thank you for the kind words about the cabin and our communication. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back for another fun getaway soon!
This cabin is gorgeous and views are amazing! We were lucky to see a momma bear with three cubs crossing the yard!! I recommend 4Wheel drive vehicle or at least higher ground clearance for the road to cabin!

Thank you so much, Lori! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the cabin and those incredible views—it’s always a special treat to spot a mama bear and her cubs (from a safe distance, of course!).
Great tip about the road—4WD or higher clearance definitely makes the drive smoother but is not necessary. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and would love to welcome you back anytime!
