This cabin was great for our family's weekend trip to Gatlinburg. We had three children under age 2 and 3 adults and had plenty of space. There scenery was great and there were a lot of entertainment options at the cabin. The house was very clean and felt safe.

A Nice Reclusive Visit

This property is located far off the beaten path without being too far of a drive from the city. We had no issues with anything on the property and the owners were very responsive. The kitchen is well stocked with dishware and equipment. The fire pit was an unexpected and welcomed addition to our stay. Overall, a very nice rental cabin for our budget!

Best Yet!

The cabin was just wonderful. Clean and had everything we needed. Loved having coffee on the deck in the morning. It was just such a beautiful place. I want to do it again in the Fall to see the colors. The hot tub was so nice after a long day of sightseeing. The cherry on top of the cake was when 4 bears came to visit us. Got some really great pictures of them. Was hard to come home and leave it behind.

Snowed in and loved it!

The host had prepared such a great accommodation for our family! Due to moving in on the same day as a snow storm, we ended up being snowed in for the first three days of vacation, but we loved it! Although it meant not being able to visit Gatlinburg itself until the fourth day, we played games in the living room, soaked in the hot tub (yes, while it was snowing and was practically magical), sledded down the driveway, and read books. We couldn't have asked for a better cabin to be "stuck" together as a family.

Overall great experience

Easy to check in and out. Couldn't log into the wireless internet, the password given and at the property didn't work (i wonder if it got changed somehow)but we had cell signal regardless and all the TVs were logged in. Got ahold of property manager relatively easy though there was about a 2 hour delay but it wasnt a problem.Side note don't leave your car door open. We did for about a minute while we brought in our bags and something got in, stole a sandwich and was gone quickly.Nice property

Lock your car doors!

Property not as nice as pics portray. Bunk beds in separate room from house with no bathroom access so nobody wanted to sleep there. No smoke detectors seen anywhere. Bear broke into my truck so make sure all vehicles are locked at all times and there is no food drinks or anything with sugar left inside your vehicles.

outdated

Under the kitchen sink there was a leak that we weren't aware of. There was a broken glass in the cabinet that someone almost cut their hand on. The kitchen cookware was awful. The coating on the pan we used for our eggs came off on the eggs. The bathroom showers were dangerous. They need grab bars.Just alot of things that need to be udated. The dryer made a noise when we used it. The kitchen table was rough. The refridgerator was nasty on the outside.

Needs some major TLC

This is a quaint property with lots of potential but it needs some major TLC. I have informed the manager of the list of issues. It seems to me that they are not giving this property any attention that it needs. I fixed some of the simple issues for them that I was able to assit with (doornobs loose and loose bolts on bunk bed). The manager only offered a reduced price stay if we came back. Without a functional laundry dryer, broken kitchen sink, non-functional ceiling fan, small bath towels and too few of bath towels helped make my decision easy... we will not be back to this property. This was also our first Vrbo ever... I am really worried that the rest are just like this.

Disappointed

We arrived and the code did not work, we were told it “would be a long shot but try the window.” I’m guessing the unlocked window has been used more than once. This place has floor tiles coming up, it’s not clean, torn hot tub cover, broken pool and foosball table. The shower head came to my nose so my husband had a really hard time showering. Dry wall is awful. It needs so much work. The game room says separate entrance which means it is not accessible from the inside of the house so it was pointless for our young kids. They had to sleep on the couch bed instead which has springs poking through. I spoke to the owner about all this. No refunds, no help, no nothing. This place looks way better in photos. Please read this before you book!

Great December Getaway

We were overall very happy with our stay. We have stayed in other VRBO locations and this was the cleanest we have stayed at. Other than the pool set missing balls and only one Xbox controller there were not any issues. I will say that we did not come for the games, so it was not a huge deal during our stay. We would stay at this property again.

This place was and is just like it’s shown. Very clean and had plenty of essentials. The owners were very nice and the place was in a amazing secluded spot! I do recommend being careful on the drive to it. I have been the Gatlinburg more then 3 times and this drive to the cabin was very straight up lol! But we loved the drive at the same time was 15 minutes from Gatlinburg!

Had a great time

Great location, clean, close to wildlife, in need of some maintenance, great cabin for a few guys. Double bunk beds separate from main house not sure if that is family friendly. It has two separate entrances, so if the kids have to pee they have to go outside to get into the house. If the kids want to leave the room the parents wouldn’t know.

Comfortable Rustic cabin

This is a very rustic cabin in the mountains. If you’re looking for seclusion this is perfect! The third bedroom is actually separated from the main cabin which did not work well for my young children. But they did love the games inside during the day. It is older and needs some updating but has all the amenities that you need for a comfortable weekend. David the host was wonderful and very responsive!!

Clean, quiet stay

Good stay! Check in was easy & trouble-free. Owners were quick to respond to messages. Beds were a bit creaky & mattresses on the softer side, but we managed fine. Kitchen has very basic amenities. If you have kids, be sure to bring plastic cups! All dishware is ceramic or glass. Game/bunk room was fun for the kids during the day. It's NOT accessible from the main cabin (separate entrance off the deck), and the door is VERY hard to close/latch. (My 9 year old couldn't do it.) We didn't feel comfortable letting them stay in the bunks, so they stayed in the cabin overnight. Overall, good, clean stay.
