Great place to stay

The cabin was very clean. It was at the way up in the mountains so if they are calling for bad weather I would suggest taking something more than a 2 wheel drive vehicle. We loved that you couldn't see any neighbors. All in all it was a great stay.

Getaway

Our original cabin did not have electricity due to bad weather however we were notified several hours before we arrived. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you for a very relaxing few days. The only problem we had was we did not plan for more time off.

Hard to find.

Cabin was nice, very pretty but, hard to find. Apple map has the wrong location so, if you go at night be careful with what gps you use. No road signs and very curvy drive up the mountain. The gas fireplace did not work.

Great

My only complaint would be they should supply dish soap. This is the first time I have ever stayed at a rental that didn’t supply any kind of soap for the kitchen. Made cleaning up the dishes we used more hassle than it was worth.

Rental

Mattress in master room needs to be replaced. Musky water smell in bathroom drains. Low water pressure. Said to put trash in bin but no bin outside. It wasn’t really clear about trash.

Lack of garbage options impacted our week-long stay

This is a lovely cabin, as described except that there are no outdoor garbage cans, which we did not know when we booked (and I think they are required by Gatlinburg ordinance). We booked a full week, and by Tuesday our kitchen garbage can was full. We called and emailed the management company to inquire about the outdoor trash cans, and were told a bear had made off with them and they hadn't been replaced. We were offered one "complimentary" trash pick up from the cabin (we paid over $2k to stay there for a week), but were on our own after that. With meal prep and takeout boxes, by Friday we had 4 full trash bags in a small cabin, which was not pleasant or relaxing, so we decided to just leave early. It was a very disappointing experience. The cabin itself is lovely and is as described in the listing. For a shorter trip, like a long weekend, the lack of outdoor garbage cans may not be an issue.

Bear Cave no Bears

On arrival at 4.15pm property wasn’t ready cleaner was still there . She let us in to waiit for about half an hour before she left. We had been travelling for 5 hrs and was looking forward to relaxing in hot tub but it was stone cold. . On checking my emails later that evenin g after we had rested there was one from Colonial Properties saying we needed to provide ID for the door lock to be activated . I tried calling and eventually got a reply at 6.45pm I was told that a text message with a link had been sent to me but I checked and hadn’t received any text message . I tried calling back but no answer by this time the office was closed so we couldn’t go out anywhere to eat as we couldn’t re-enter because the code wouldn’t work. We had to take ID to the office the following day to gain access. There was no mention of needing ID for the lock to work in earlier correspondence. Just another point we noticed that you have a termite/ woodworm problem in the ballastrade upstairs not that it bothered us but thought you should know . Apart from that we enjoyed our stay

Cute and Cozy

This cabin was perfect for my husband and I. It would work great for a small family as well. It was very clean, cozy and in the perfect location between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Would definitely recommend!
