Disliked: Cleanliness
House was not clean. Strong smell as we walked in and noticed it was the fireplace that had not been cleaned out so we did that, the master bedroom bedding was dirty so I had to wash that, the dryer didn’t dry well so it took much longer than it should have to dry the bedding, the master bedroom shower was extremely dirty and moldy. I contacted the property manager about the condition of the house and all I was told was they’d pass it on to the cleaning crew but unfortunately it wasn’t taken care of during our 4 day stay. It wasn’t a very comfortable stay to say the least. I will not ever rent from them again and I would never recommend anyone rent this place.

Check in was a nightmare

We checked into our cabin at 4, it had not been cleaned from the previous people that stayed. No contact from our host after 4 attempts for 3 hours. We had to go buy cleaning supplies and clean the cabin ourselves and had to wash all the sheets, blankets, and towels ourselves. We had driven 4 hours and could not relax on our first night due to having to clean the entire cabin and wash all the linens. We were told after 3 hours that they were sorry and the cleaning crew had an emergency, but yet there was no communication to us. The cabin was beautiful but not how we wanted to spend our first day considering we were only there for a weekend.

Family Vacation

It is a very beautiful house with plenty of room for all 6 of us two bedrooms with King size beds and the third room has two bunk beds in it. and very secluded, it's like you got the whole mountain to yourself, a beautiful hot tub area positioned just a very short walk up the road in the side of the mountain with lights all around, on the porch right off the living room is a outside theatre area. The owners are very quick to respond to every question we had. I would definitely recommend this home for your family get away, and we will be back again.

Pictures are deceiving

Very run down looking, furniture old and dirty looking. They tried to do some remodeling like newer kitchen and newer bath fixtures. ABSOLUTELY in no man's land. No view, ut is pushed right against and embankment sieds and back. NO VIEW. Hot tub is up the inclined road apart from cabin. I would be very afraid for bears to come around while I was out there especially in the dark. Front steps were dirty looking, debris, junk. Game room in the garage was very very dirty. Looked like something out if 80s picture movie. So disappointed and scared safety wise, that we left the very next evening. We didn't even feel safe staying one more night. It was not a happy place to be in!

Quick Pass

The pictures for this property look amazing, but unfortunately they don’t live up to the current state of this property. We travel frequently and utilize VRBO and have never had an experience like this. When we arrived, we quickly saw this place was filthy. The fridge smelled horrible and was not clean, there was mold around the sinks in the bathrooms and all over the shower door. The floors has dirt all over them. I went to open the panty and the door came completely off the hinge. The pictured outdoor space which attracted us to the property was covered in leaves with no cushions. The game area in the garage only had one working game. The beds were so hard and uncomfortable. It was so unsatisfactory, we were willing to be out the money but we were unable to find another place to stay due to the holiday. I reached out to the owners regarding our concerns and we were told they usually don’t get feedback like this and would pass the information on to the cleaner. They said the cushions were stained and unable to be used and ignored my comment around the gaming console. There was no solution provided for any of my concerns. I would never stay in this property again. It is the worst VRBO we have ever visited.

Beautiful Space

Property is beautiful and very private, properties paved driveway is on a huge hill so be aware of inclement weather. After a small hiccup upon checking in, that the owners were able to remediate, our stay was great. Would book again upon revisiting TN.

Excellent cabin

Very cute and cozy place not too far from Gatlinburg. The only thing i can comment on is that the curtain shower needs to be changed and some of the door knobs were lose. Other than that we loved the cabin.

Loved it!

We have been traveling to the area for the last 7+ years and normally stay at the Dream More Resort. For whatever reason our dates were not available so we took a chance and rented a cabin for the first time and we loved it. This cabin (my happy place) was beautiful and was in a great location. So easy to get to Gatlinburg. The cabin was big and have very comfortable beds. It was clean and the decor was beautiful. There are no TVs in the bedrooms which was actually quite nice. I would recommend and we are already thinking of returning. Thank you for the great time.

The property manager is the worst, Stay away they are just out for money grab. maybe new owner!

At check in the cleaners were there still cleaning we asked what happen and they said they got info last minute that it was a flip to clean and go. Said management only told them very last minute. We booked days in advance. We Found bed bugs our second night , left leg was eaten up in grouper bits when I woke up white puffy bumps that are scars now, soaked in bath before bed so didn’t carry anything from outside as they are pathetically claiming , contacted owner at 11am to inform what we found and that we could not stay there another night and would be there for few more hours to get their feedback ,meanwhile wash and dry our belonging not to risk taking home bed bugs. We finally left at 300 pm and then contacted them again to let them know we checked out at 300pm and still zero communication. Then at almost 900pm they send an email to say from one of our pictures we emailed them that it’s a tick and that they have a Facebook friend group agreeing with them, just belittling the situation. We already left 6 hours ago and drove 5 hours home. Then to add insult to injury they have a game that stopped working in their damp garage and some how connect it to us saying we must have damaged their game. Screen not staying on glitching on and off so apparently that’s our fault. Glad the AC and appliances didn’t go out while we were there I guess they would have charged us for that too. In all this we paid for 4 nights and left after the second night from bed bug bits and they have not replied anything to that. Not one phone call, charged us in full and at the end charge us additional money for their game issues. Horrible management. Late check in because of cleaners there around 530pm and we had to leave and find something to do for an hour while they finished after being in car driving all day from home and then second night get eat up by bed bugs and have to leave with the owners not communicating like a professional business should then just belittle the situation. We have everything documented emails and hundreds of photos, photo of cleaners with timing , bed bugs, bed bug droppings between sheets etc, under the bed the rug plastic wrapper and trash under the bed no proper cleaning to say no bed bugs, all bits , bug, house, game photos. Hope they do the right thing here. Bad management. We wasted so much time and money here. They should refund situations like this! Hundreds of cabins for rent in this area find another and stay away from headache!

Fantastic!

We enjoyed our stay at “My Happy Place”. It was in a private area. We even got to witness a couple of bears right in the front yard area. We enjoyed the hot tub, the fire place and the outdoor movie projector. Our kids enjoyed the game room and the nice bunk beds!

Modern Bear:) This was an amazing experience.

The “Modern Bear home” has everything you need to relax, prepare meals, and entertain your family. The home boosts three bedroom rooms with 4 comfortable bunks in one of the bedrooms. The remaining two bedrooms have huge King beds. The beds have memory component and you will be well rested. The living area is well decorated with a modern essence, but the cabin feel is still maintained. There is plenty room to gather with the family. In fact there is a huge two car garage game space that will give the family an opportunity to host a friendly competition. The water is hot and the internet is fast. The main bedroom has spa soaking tub. The owner spared no expense on this beautiful cabin. Get ready to leave your troubles at home and relax. The hosts were friendly and only a phone call away. This was definitely a “Happy Place”…. Mountain Top Cabin The Aaron’s and Booker Family
