Scary

The house and rooms were fine. The game room was a joke, not very accessible for older people. The driveway was almost a disaster especially when wet. It took me three tries flooring my engine to get up. I am surprised no one has slid off and turned over.

The property was great. Met all expectations for our family vacation with a group of 16. The rooms and layout were as pictured, the location was great, very short drive to downtown Pigeon Forge and right by Dollywood. It is right in the mountains, so definitely need to use caution for bears. We had a visit by a bear in the driveway within our first hour, so keep watch on the kiddos, especially if going to extra room, which is accessed from separate, outside entrance.

Dollywood vacay

We had the best time staying at this property! It was spacious and clean. Plenty of beds/bedrooms/bathrooms for 6 adults and 10 kids. It was literally like 3 minutes to Dollywood. The kids loved hanging out in the game room. Three of the bedrooms have attached bathrooms. The host was so kind and easy to get in touch with if we had a question. Would stay here again!

Phenomenal

I absolutely loved this home. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. You are closed to everything including Gatlinburg. Home is very spacious, and you have everything you'll need. The check in process was very easy, and the host was simply phenomenal and very responsive (I bugged them a lot) and they were always joyful and very nice. I felt welcomed and so my big group of 20. I kept reading the reviews about the driveaway and I was a little scared, but if you have a drivers License and you know how to drive, this is not an issue at all. Its a little steep but nothing to be worried or scared about. I highly recommend this property.

Perfect for family gatherings

We loved the house. It was clean and had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for everyone and the kids were happy just hanging out in the house. The kitchen is huge with enough room for everyone to eat together. Anytime we had any questions the owner was very responsive. I hope to stay there again next year
