We really enjoyed our weekend stay here. The view was amazing, and everything in the cabin was very cozy. Only wish we could have stayed longe to take advantage of the hot tub and the game room! We would definitely stay here again.

My family and I very much enjoyed your cabin. Very spacious and had everything we needed. Roads are not too bad to get to the cabin. Collectively between all of us we seen bears almost everyday, one was even walking on our deck. I would definitely stay here again. We had a little problem with the toilet and it was immediately addressed. Thanks again for everything.

Amazing Cabin with Bear Sightings

This cabin was perfect for our family getaway! It was spotless and had everything we needed. Most evenings, we were treated to the sight of a mama bear and her three cubs playing on the deck—such a special experience. The kids loved playing pool, and the view was stunning. Highly recommend for a relaxing and unique stay!

Great place with minimal adjustments

We loved the cabin! Our children loved all the "levels". A few cobwebs but overall very clean. If I'm nitpicking, the view was slightly obstructed due to overgrowth but still a great view (just could have been better). Also, definitely a little friend running around at night. Lots of scurrying. We did get to see a momma bear and her cubs which just made the trip! We would return, maybe with a hatchet next time

Great location

Overall, the visit was good. The cabin was nice. It is a little dated and could use a little bit more cleaning. Remote controls are missing batteries. The stairs to the upstairs and basement are quite steep and probably not a good fit for small children or the elderly. Cabin was well stocked and they were plenty of towels. It would be helpful to have hooks or towel bars in the upstairs bathroom to hang the towels on. The drive to the cabin was quite steep and narrow. Larger vehicles would have a hard time turning around to go back down.

View. View. View. Location, location, location.

Great location! Very close to Gatlinburg and entrance to smokies. It’s a climb to get there but once we stepped foot on property it was an amazing feeling. Huge window and great back deck with a spectacular view. The basement was a great area to escape and play pool or just relax. The kitchen and 1st floor were perfect for family meals, game nights and bonding time.

Nice cabin with a great view!

While the listing somewhat spells this out, the roads getting there are suprisingly steep for a paved road. If there was any ice or snow it would be...interesting. The location and neighborhood was nice other than there is currently close by housing construction that was fairly loud at times. Lots of power saws and hammering and they worked long hours.The view from the deck and the living room provided a nice mountain landscape. The chairs both inside and out made soaking up the view very relaxing.We put the pool table and hot tub to good use after each day of exploring the national park.Perhaps I missed it in the listing, but the grill is a charcoal grill, not a gas grill. That was disappointing and too much of a hassle to bother with since we did not bring any charcoal.Overall, this met our needs and was mostly what we were looking for in the area. Because of the crowded nature of the surrounding towns, we ended up spending more time at the cabin than we anticipated, which worked out perfectly fine and made for a more relaxing trip. It was a comfortable place to hang out.

Spring break getaway

We had a great time at the cabin. The property was exactly as listed. The place was very clean. We loved the view!!! We really enjoyed the pool table and our kids liked the hot tub. Check in and check out were easy peasy. We didn’t see any bears at the cabin, but did see some and elk in the park. We would definitely rent again.

Amazing mountainside retreat

My wife and I stopped in Gatlinburg during a slow, scenic drive back to Ohio from Georgia. Our stay at this cabin was a highlight of this trip! The views from the deck were incredible (especially so at night, when the mountainside is peppered with the lights of other cabins) and the location wasn't too bad to get to. Beware - the last half mile or so is some pretty steep driving! We did alright, but it was daunting at first! Very responsive and communicative host as well!

Great, cozy cabin!

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin! The house fit our needs perfectly. Our boys loved the pool room, we loved the proximity to the National park and Gatlinburg. The hot tub was a must after hiking to the top of Mt. LeConte. We’d love to come back again!

Spring break

We came for spring break with our 3 children and a friend of our daughters. The views were amazing and within minutes, the hot tub and pool table were being put to use! We booked until Friday, but ended up leaving Thursday evening due to the threat of snow; the roads are steep but worth it!

Quick Girls Trip

We enjoyed our stay at the Highlander. It had everything we needed and was very clean. We wished the hot tub was on the upper deck so we could enjoy the view. It could use a few updates but nothing too big. The stairs to the lower floor are very steep and you have to navigate them to use the hot tub. Very quiet area and convenient to Ober, downtown, the national park and Pigeon Forge.
