House is not clean at all. They also have plumbing work that needs to be taking care of. The upstairs shower leaks onto bed down stairs and the kitchen sink under neath was soaked with water that we had to clean up. We also had to wash all linens before sleeping. They were not cleaned. All in all it’s a very nice cabin but not taken care of. Major cleaning needs to be done.

Very disappointed location was hard to find Down in a hollow cabin had a musty smell there was a pad lock on the laundry room door no instructions on how to open it no instructions on how to work the air unit. Ice maker wasn’t working couldn’t find the out door garbage can just wasn’t happy with this unit also had to leave a day earlier because of a medical issue

I think they need to hire new cleaners. The cabin was not very clean. They definitely do not clean underneath the furniture. There’s dirty socks and stuff underneath the furniture. The tub was disgusting. There was shave trimmings still on the back of the sink behind the Spicket. Where you have to take the trash out too, was completely full with trash bags, gnats and flies everywhere when you open it up, they need to have the trash emptied. It’s nasty. Will I stay here again probably not.

We stayed from a mini weekend getaway for our anniversary. I read a review on another booking site after getting there and they were right. It was from May 2025 and nothing was fixed correctly. I wish I would have taken pictures. The toilet seat upstairs was strapped on with a zip tie. The shower stall upstairs was siliconed and white duct taped to cease a water leak that caused the 1st floor bedroom ceiling to sag. Which is held up by a piece of wood screwed up there. The ceiling light/fan we didn’t use. The fan blades were missing. Probably from water damage. The bathroom on the 1st floor needed a good deep clean. The shower walls were in need of a deep grout cleaning. It was red with mildew. I did bring Lysol wipes with us so I wiped everything down myself. Kitchen was cleanish. I wiped it down also. We did not cook, the handle on the oven was very loose and I wasn’t taking any chances of it falling off while I baked something. Handles on the fridge were missing. Ice maker was laying in the ice tray frozen in water. With all that said, this cabin could be really nice with some updates to the shower upstairs and ceiling fixed correctly on the 1st floor with a new ceiling light/fan. And a good deep clean to the whole place.

The property itself is fine, but it needs lots of love and attention. The place was SO dirty! Hair balls everywhere, dust falling off the fans, ants in the kitchen and nasty little flying bugs coming out of all drains. The yard grass was tall when we arrived and was never mowed the entire week we stayed there. Dogs got soaked everytime they went out in the morning. The firepit is sitting a foor from the woods so the mosquitoes make it impossible to enjoy. The rugs in the upstairs shower area look like they have never been washed. That is what you had to step out on after a shower. Many other problems, too many to write. This was our first experience with v r b o. It makes me question whether or not we will ever use their services again. I honestly, I would love to get a refund.

For the price it was good. It needs better cleaning and the yard area was overgrown. One bathroom had issues with toilet and shower that need work but the main bathroom was fine. The owner was responsive to our questions and helped get the TV back online. We enjoyed being out in the Cosby area.

The Log Cabin A was charming, clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. It's conveniently located near a laundromat, coffee shop, Dollar General, and a gas station—perfect for any immediate needs. While it's set a bit away from the main town and located on a main road, it still felt peaceful and quiet inside.Note that there’s no dishwasher, so you'll need to wash dishes by hand—but the kitchen sink is spacious and manageable. Laundry facilities aren't available on the property, but the nearby laundromat makes it easy to take care of that when needed.It's good to add coffee shop address instead the property address as the google map is taking you to some dead-end private property road.

This property is beautiful! Bedspread were dirty soiled body fluid on them shower is terrible !! Tub down stairs should be replaced jacuzzi didn’t work hard step over to take shower !!! Stairs going upstairs were a safety hazard !! Un safe for older couples

The cabin had a mildew smell to it. The bedroom fan was broke and the blinds wouldn’t open. Definitely needs some cosmetic work done to it. Cabin location needs lights or something so the driveway is easy to see at night.

2.0 / 10.0

Awful. The cabin definitely needs some updates. It was not clean at all. The floors looked like they hadn’t been touched. The fact the shower leaks upstairs ONTO the downstairs bed..ridiculous. That needs to be fixed. Shouldn’t even be able to rent the place out when the shower leaks onto the bed. Beds aren’t comfortable at all. Washer and dryer was out of service so who knows if the sheets got washed. The fire alarm batteries were bad so they beeped all the time. We left a night early and drove back home just because it was so awful. Terrible and really think I deserve my money back.

8.0 / 10.0

Quiet stay in a cute cabin that is exactly as described. Small FYI… we went in the off season so it was a little bit of a drive to get to restaurants and such, but definitely worth it for the restful stay.

We were really bummed we couldn’t hang out longer. The cabin was very cute and clean. I was nervous heading into a pet friendly but it was very well maintained. My only wish was that the laundry machine was open to guests.

The cabin was beautiful and nicely decorated. There was so much room for me and my family to enjoy our stay comfortably. Close drive to downtown Gaitlynburg which was a plus for me😀. My family and I really enjoyed our stay. It's was so peaceful.

Cabin is cute but STINKS of mildew. Mattresses and pillows are worn out—not comfortable at all. We cut our stay short by 3 days cause smell so bad. Plus no response from guest services when I called.

This is our second trip to this cabin. We love the location because it’s close enough to attractions and far enough away from the attractions to get some peace and quiet.

Decor is western and its a cute small cabin about 30m from Gatlinburg. Far enough from traffic, but close enough to the things we wanted to do. We didn't use the kitchen except fridge and microwave (which worked well), it is well equipped with pots, pans, and dishes if you do want to cook. Downstairs bathroom was nice, good shower pressure. We did not use the jacuzzi. Upstairs bathroom not great, not good pressure and very dark. Beds were good, pillows eh, overall nice, but downstairs one has some water damage. We enjoyed hang out in the sitting area in the evenings, very comfy and cozy. Their were some issues with upstairs bathroom when we got there, but Nick warned us before we checked in and he was able to resolve the issue next day. Communication was good. Overall experience was positive and we would stay here again.

2.0 / 10.0

very unhappy that anyone would rent a cabin with a water leak from the ceiling leaking on the bed and the problem was patched and not fixed. We were very upset and there was a smell we could not escape and we had to sleep and shower in the same bedroom and bath because we rented it for separate rooms so I do not feel at all that we had a good trip. the cabin was not cleaned well at all we could not walk on the floors without something on our feet. I have rented lots of cabins in Gatlinburg and I won't rent this one. Icant understand why someone would rent a cabin in this condition and expect you to have a good trip not a good trip for me and my childhood friend of 50 or more years very disappointed to say the least.

We had a few issues with leaks and finding old food and such, but the place was so relaxing and peaceful we didn’t care. The property manager was responsive. There is an amazing coffee shop next door, Doc’s Cafe right down the road and a straight shot into town. For how quiet it was you would never guess how conveniently it’s located! The only thing missing was a hot tub!

10.0 / 10.0

This cabin was a great place to stay for our trip to the Smokies! The western decor was cute, the large kitchen had plenty of space and utensils for cooking, and the furniture was so comfy. We slept way better than we would have in a hotel. It's also far enough away from the hustle and bustle to feel secluded but close enough to Gatlinburg that you're not in the car forever. We had a great trip and would love to visit again!

This cabin was perfect for us. We had everything we needed. This was a great spot for us to stay as we are working to build on our property. If it is available for our next trip, we will certainly be back. Thanks Nick for your hospitality. Dawn, Bill and Harley.

My wife and I brought her parents and our granddaughter to Tennessee for a few days and this place was perfect. Only about 20 miles outside of Gatlinburg/25 miles to Pigeon Forge. We were able to go back and forth easily and without any traffic issues. The cabin itself is quaint and fit the 5 of us perfectly. The kitchen has almost everything you need. Could use some mixing bowls. Haha. We will definitely book this property for future trips to the area. We enjoyed relaxing on the front porch in the swing and the rocking chairs. Only thing missing is a hot tub.

6.0 / 10.0

The stay was okay. The bed was very uncomfortable. Both of the beds were almost like sleeping on springs. Also we weren’t told about the washer machine being out of order. The town itself was very peaceful and not too far from the activities in gatlinburg and pigeon forge. The outside and inside decor was beautiful. If you aren’t going to spend much time in the cabin, this is definitely for you.

8.0 / 10.0

The cabin was as expected in size. It was closer to the neighbors than it looks in the pictures, but it was very quiet and serene. The only complaints/issues I had was a weird odor inside the cabin (which could have been from being closed up) and the upstairs shower hadn’t been cleaned. The temperature was hard to regulate with the loft and location of the heater but the fireplace was helpful. Overall a very nice cabin and would definitely recommend if you are looking for a place to stay that is out of the way from the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. It was close enough to get to everything quickly, but far enough to be a peaceful and quiet setting.

Our vacation started out terrible! The check-in instructions stated that if there were any issues or problems to call or email to our guest contact. We emailed asking if any early check-in was available. Got immediate response of yes. We were about 40 minutes early. Unpacked and fixed dinner and went to bed. Went sight seeing the next day came back to the cabin, prepared to get into the jacuzzi tub. Ran the tub full of hot water only because the cold spicket was broken off. Attempted to turn the jets on but couldn't. Discovered that the circuit breaker was turned off. Turned circuit breaker back on, attempted to turn the jets on again and still nothing would work. By this time discovered worms floating in the water. Immediately emailed the guest contact about the situation. Received a reply back that they knew that it was broken and parts were ordered and if they should come in during our stay they would let us know. I emailed back that I was not happy with this response and that I'd like to be refunded some of the money I had paid because I had booked this cabin for the amenities that it had and now not getting. I was ghosted. I sent 5 more emails and was still being ghosted. I called the phone number given to be connected with voice mail. I left a message ghosted. Finally contacted Evolve but it took 3 attempts contacting Evolve to finally get someone who was willing to attempt a fair resolution. The cabin also had a washer and dryer listed as an aminety but it didn't work either. The cabin had mice running in and out from behind the jacuzzi tub brick facade as well. Over all we made the best of our stay and Evolve is a good rental company but they just are representing the wrong owners in this cabin.

The property is not like the picture. The fire pit wasn’t clean to use and there were leaves all over the place to have to walk through. The upstairs shower was not used due to the note that it leaks to the downstairs bedroom and drips on the bed. If the shower was fixed, it would be a lot more desirable to rent again to me, but I won’t be renting it again. The fire place is propane and went out for one day and had to wait for the next day for it to be fixed.

8.0 / 10.0

Cute cabin with everything we needed. However, it could use a thorough cleaning. There's a smell that needs to be taken care of as well. Upstairs shower was not used due to warning that it could leak into downstairs bedroom. Repair of washer/dryer would be helpful.

6.0 / 10.0

It’s a really nice place when you pull up and when we walked in it was nice but the only thing it wasn’t very clean. There was poop on the back of the toilet seat, and black mold in the up stairs, as well as food on the dishes that wasn’t washed right. The washer and dryer didn’t work so had to go to the laundry mat.

8.0 / 10.0

Very nice Cabin in great location. It did have a smell when you walked in off cats but that is the only reason for 4 stars .
