Enjoyed our stay and had everything that we could possibly need. Very comfortable surroundings. Well kept. Thank you!
10 / 10OutstandingยทJul 2026
Perfect balance of seclusion and convenience!We had an absolutely wonderful stay here! The layout was incredibly comfortable and spacious enough for our two families of four (8 people total) to never feel like we were stepping on each other's toes.The location truly offers the best of both worlds. It feels completely secluded - like your own private cabin tucked away in the woods - yet itโ€™s just a short drive to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. We were able to easily head out to explore all the latest tourist attractions during the day and retreat back to our peaceful, quiet mountain oasis in the evening. Highly recommend this property for families or groups traveling together.
10 / 10OutstandingยทJun 2026
This lovely property was enjoyed by a group of five for a week. We had plenty of space to spread out, but it also had great common areas when we wanted to spend time together. The home was very clean and organized. We had everything we needed in the kitchen for pots, pans, plates, bowls, and cups. There is VERY little extra, though, so don't expect too many condiments/spices or things like aluminum foil/zip lock baggies. The hosts provided basic paper products like paper towels and toilet paper, which were very much appreciated.The beds were a little firmer than we like, but they were comfortable enough and had nice, clean linens. There were plenty of towels in the bathrooms. The downstairs shower was very good - just not the greatest water pressure. The upstairs shower had an odd door that opened halfway into the shower to get in, which ended up being fine, but could be difficult for a larger person or anyone not very stable on their feet.Overall, we enjoyed the home. Be aware that the base of the driveway (which is a little steep but not an issue at all) is not the best for cars that don't have much clearance. Our minivan often scraped a bit making the turn, so be sure to take it slow.It's a beautiful area and within a reasonable driving distance to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge (15 - 25 minutes depending upon where you're going). There are nearby markets and grocery stores. Lots of great places to eat as well! We would definitely stay here again.

The property was beautiful and exactly as described! Our entire group was impressed and thoroughly enjoyed all of the accommodations particularly the hot tub and the arcade machine. The cabin was very clean as well as all of the linens provided. We would come back in a heartbeat and hope we are able to do so in the future!
