This cabin was beyond outstanding. Our family loved our time there—it was the best outfitted rental I’ve ever had, and the setting was so beautiful, we could have spent all of our time in the balcony! We cannot wait to go back!

The cabin was clean, well stocked and just met every need my family had. The drive up to the cabin is a small challenge so be ready for that. But why else did you come to the mountains for? Haha! Host was very kind to speak to and even let us know early that the cabin was ready to check in. Would definitely stay there again

Easy check in and out. Completely stocked kitchen. We cooked our thanksgiving meal here with our adult children and had everything we needed. Loved the 2 seperate living areas. Location close enough to enjoy the activities of the area but far enough to still have the peace and quiet of the mountains. Host very friendly and responsive.

We had a great time at the house. Check-in and Check-out was flawless. The house was very clean and well stocked. Our daughter loved the arcade cakes and the board games that came with the house. Very close to everything in downtown Pigeon Forge. Most locations are 6-7 minutes. Super dog friendly and we saw multiple deer here during our stay. If you have kids I recommend putting a gate up at the stairs to go to the game room, it’s very close to the main doorway and we had one close call with our daughter because she was not paying attention

Host were nice! house was nice and all pictures were real! only couple negatives! The driveway is hard to back out of for a full size pickup if there is another vehicle in driveway! living room is small and the couch and beds sit low to the ground and make it a little difficult to get up and down if your in your 60s! Need steps to get to fire pit outside as it’s steep drop! Kids loved the game room and bunkbeds! overall It was what i was looking for and id stay again!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the home, found it just as pictured, and that the kids loved the game room and bunk beds—that’s always great to hear. We also really appreciate you pointing out the challenges with the driveway, furniture height, and access to the fire pit. This kind of feedback is very helpful to us as we look for ways to improve the experience for future guests, especially those traveling with older family members. We’re happy the home overall met what you were looking for, and we’d love the opportunity to host you again. Thank you for staying with us!
