The actual place was great! I will note within 5 minutes of beginning to load stuff into the Cabin. Two bears broke into my car and ripped the back seats. So just be extra cautious when loading…we saw about five total in only two days.

Awesome place to visit and the cabin/chalet was perfect & very spacious.
8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
Property was as advertised. Smooth check in. You are truly in the mountains. The initial ride up was a little shocking because of the elevation and sharp turns, but once we figured it out, it was all good. We found it easier to come down the mountain and go through Gatlinburg even when going to Pigeon Forge. You have to fight the traffic but the hills and turns are less. The tram comes right over the cabin. Its a three story house with beds on the second and third floor and the kitchen on the second floor. Unique design. Me and my brothers stayed at the pool table! Saw bears daily. Had a good time. Thank you

Code on door was not correct. We waited 45 minutes for Rebecca to get back with us & give us a new code. There was trash around the front, interior doors had veneer stripped off in places, same with tables in living room.No drain plugs in 2 of the bathtubs. Rip in hot tub cover. Hot tub was fine, beds were comfortable, house was clean. We did get to see 2 bears eating berries by the driveway.
