10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2025
This property was great! It was clean, well equipped and had plenty of space for the 8 of us. It’s located in between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg with easy access to main roads. Personally, I’m not a fan of driving steep, narrow, winding mountain roads - for this cabin, the road directly to it is pretty steep but not too long and we never encountered any other vehicles on it during our stay. Our family loved the game room, hot tub and huge dining table that provided plenty of space for family meals and card games. We even saw a mama bear and 3 cubs just outside the cabin! Owners were quick to respond to questions prior to our stay and all information provided was clear and accurate. Overall a perfect place to stay for our long weekend trip - highly recommend!!

I would give this cabin a solid 4.5 to 5 stars. The place worked well for our group for the most part and was as described. Had bears come up to us on the patio on 2 seperate occasions.
The only reason I docked a point on the cleanliness on this cabin was the shear volume of spiderwebs on the outside. Had to go around and knock them all down on every patio and entrance way upon arrival to the cabin.I know it is a cabin in the woods but there were initially a bunch.
Ultimately would stay here again if was looking for a cabin in the area. Also having easy access to a back road to Gatlingburg was a nice bonus.
