Private with a gorgeous view!!!

I absolutely loved the location!!! It was soooo close to Gatlinburg (less than 5min drive) but since it was on a mountain gravel road it felt like it was truly a mountain retreat cabin!! Breathtaking views of Mt Leconte and a private deck with a swing and hot tub… you can’t go wrong for a couples stay!! I will be back!!!

Underwhelming

The jetted tub did not work, The drive way was treacherous and full of potholes and in need of repair. The driveway was bad enough that we really didn’t even want to have to try to go up or down it because it was so full of potholes. The pictures on VRBO need to be updated. It’s not as nice as it looks online. It was comfortable in the cabin, but could use some updating.

Cabin Review

Very good views, host had good communication. However, lots of stink bugs and lady bugs, even when we got there we saw a bunch of dead bugs by the entrance and up in the loft. Bathtub had odd stains throughout the tub. Hot tub smelled weird host said that it was the iron in the water, however it was also stained with a white substance.

Wonderful weekend getaway

My husband and I greatly enjoyed our weekend getaway in this cozy cabin up on the hill! The owner was wonderful to deal with and it was so refreshing to be able to have a direct person to contact! We enjoyed the pool table and the deck! The views were breathtaking! Saturday afternoon was a beautiful one. The sun was out so we actually got to enjoy a snack and a drink out on the porch swing! The road up to the cabin is a little rough. So if you own a vehicle that sits lower to the ground, you might want to bring a different one. It’s a cabin on a hill so you are driving up a hill to get there! It’s so worth it! We felt secluded which is what we wanted! We will definitely be back!

A peaceful birthday getaway

A nice cozy homey cabin. Very clean. The pool table was definitely our favorite part. We did see a bear and the host did give us a heads up when it was sighted. You have a couple neighbors nearby but no way close to see or hear. Also any part of the porch that would be seen was covered so the porch was very private. The kitchen was Well stocked with dishes and cooking ware. Plenty of kcup and coffee options. Even had a few seasonings if you plan on cooking. Ladies miss Val is looking out for us with not only a hairdryer but a curling iron as well. We only had one complaint and that was not all of the jets in the hot tub was working. It was at a perfect temperature but unfortunately only two jets was working. All in all a great cabin to stay for a mountain getaway. Definitely perfect for couples.

Beautiful cabin with the best views and close to downtown gatlinburg. The cabin looked perfect decorated with christmas lights & a Christmas tree.We were asked to check in late as owner was repairing the hot tub.The hot tub however did not work so owner refunded us 30/ per night when we asked if it could be fixed. When we arrived there were dead lady bugs all over the futon couch and area rug despite vrbo cleaning fee.

AMAZING HONEYMOON

Everything was very clean and (Ed) host was so helpful and accommodating. It was quiet, peaceful and had GREAT views from the front porch! Very close to Anakeesta, Fox Place Spa and shopping. We had a little bear visitor which was beautiful and just topped off the whole trip. Definitely going back when we can.

Stinky Anniversary

Before arrival we were notified the cabin would not be ready at check in time. Ed asked for our ETA. We told him 7pm. We were then informed that the outside hot tub was not working. Upon our arrival, using a little water, stunk up the entire cabin with the smell of rotten eggs which made us nauseous. We texted Ed who responded he would change a filter and add chlorene to the well stating that we would need to run the water for 60 seconds to fix the problem. In all actuality, we had to run the hot water a long time. It completely stunk the house up again. We had to leave for the second time recovering from nausea lasting an hour. The water remained gross the entire stay. We used bottled water to rinse our mouths after brushing our teeth. No cooking, limited showers and could not utilize the indoor hot tub. The last shower stunk up the house. There were bugs piled up on the window seal. The bathroom floor was dirty or needs to be replaced. The cabin needs a true deep cleaning. The hot tub was either dirty or old. There were spider webs and an over all sense of dirtiness. The owners are not doing this beautiful cabin in a perfect location justice. You should also be told up front that there is a bear that tries to get in the cabin and in vehicles. werewerewere iinformed

Incredibly underwhelming

It wasn't what it was made out to be, the road was hard to locate:no sign and it was very rough. Had to dodge the other holes. The cabin was filthy. Food crumbs on the table, floor, place mats, leaves in the sink, lady bugs all over the 9t was a total mess. The bed was a Goldilox reject. Way too soft. floor on various stages of decomposition, carpet dirty, bed spread covered with ladybugs, we didn't dare use the hot tub or bath tub, the fireplace is burnt out and a fire hazard, didn't dare use it, the view was obscured by trees growing up along the porch, kudzu was growing through the porchbannister and overhang

About the host

Hosted by Edward Bates

Host profile image
The Great Smoky Mountains are our great love and passion. We believe you will fall in love with them too. The greatest compliment we have received on the property has come from about a dozen guests over the past three years who have asked, 'Is this a part of the National Park?' The boundary between our Property and the National Park is almost indistinguishable. The photos are real and not retouched. Our forest appears to be contiguous with the National Park. We truly have one of the best views and one of the best locations in America.

What makes this property unique

Incredible Vista is only 38.2 miles from Harrah's Casino in the Cherokee Reservation in North Carolina.
