Plenty of space for our family. Great location to escape to after visiting activities downtown. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool table. We had some bears visit which was great for all to see. Our host communicated very well, which was refreshing. We will be back!!!

It’s one I want to never relive the visit from the bears were nothing to play with and they didn’t want to leave our cabin , so the Tennessee wildlife and game had to be called in to assist in our departure.

The property was clean and in a great location . My primary complaints revolve around the driveway and some of the furniture. The driveway is extremely challenging and potentially dangerous to navigate, especially when backing out. It’s positioned an incline, requiring someone to spot you to ensure no oncoming traffic is present before you can safely exit - a process that felt quite precarious. Additionally, the kitchen chairs cushion were dirty, and the couch, loveseat,and armchair in the living room are in need of replacement. Despite these issues, my overall stay was great.

Location was great and convenient to the main downtown area. Only complaint I have is the coffee maker did not brew at all. It would’ve been nice have a simple Keurig Coffee maker.

We had a lovely stay. Everything was clean and ready for our stay. We had everything we needed. We were 5 minites from attractions and had no issues getting anywhere. Also, when one of is left a phone after checking out. We were able to communicate to the owner to get back in and retrieve it with no issue. I would definitely return.

Not what was expected

Intense smell of bleach when we first walked in. Took several hours to air out. Furniture is old and worn. Sofa and chair fabric is not clean. Decor is bare. If you are looking for cabin decorated in the mountain theme, this is not it. Good location. Easy to get to Gatlinburg parkway.

A nice cabin and the area is in a good location. Not a far drive from the big attractions but far enough to feel like you are in a private cabin in the woods.

Family get together

The house accommodated four adult couples nicely. We think that when renting you should be aware that it's a very windy road to get to the house and the driveway is steep and cured. We chose to be in the house before dark for that reason.
