Very good

This hobbit house was such a fun place to stay! It was very spacious, clean, and secluded. The building and interior with hobbit-themed items helped make it look virtually authentic. Definitely recommended!
If was super cozy and had air conditioning and everyone thing we were looking for. Only negative thing I would say is that to toilet omits a sewer smell in the guest bedroom at night. Other then that it was great.

Hobbit cabin in the smokies
My girlfriend and I stayed at the hobbit cabin during the smoky mountain jeep invasion 2024. Absolutely loved the theme and design of it. It’s tucked away about 40 minutes to pigeon forge or Gatlinburg which made a beautiful ride into each area. We invited another couple at last second and it slept the four of us fine. Absolutely loved our memories made here and hope others can do the same.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
It was cute and definitely a place I am glad we tried. The location was nice and love the theme. However, it could use some attention to details. I’m hobbit sized myself but my hubby is more like Gandalf. While the master bedroom was cute. Nothing about it was functional at all. Toliet, too tall for a hobbit. Wooden so not comfortable for a man. The tub wouldn’t hold water, literally, and hadn’t been cleaned properly. Guest restroom, if you are not hobbit sized, again good luck fitting on the toilet. Not to mention we had gnats the entire time because fruit was left in the kitchen, so we battled them the entire vacation. Round doors, cute but the one to the kitchen was a trip hazard. Just needs a lot of fine tuning. It could be great. Not sure we would stay there again.
