Cabin was nice, very pretty but, hard to find. Apple map has the wrong location so, if you go at night be careful with what gps you use. No road signs and very curvy drive up the mountain. The gas fireplace did not work.

Mattress in master room needs to be replaced. Musky water smell in bathroom drains. Low water pressure. Said to put trash in bin but no bin outside. It wasn’t really clear about trash.
6 / 10Average·Dec 2023
This is a lovely cabin, as described except that there are no outdoor garbage cans, which we did not know when we booked (and I think they are required by Gatlinburg ordinance). We booked a full week, and by Tuesday our kitchen garbage can was full. We called and emailed the management company to inquire about the outdoor trash cans, and were told a bear had made off with them and they hadn't been replaced. We were offered one "complimentary" trash pick up from the cabin (we paid over $2k to stay there for a week), but were on our own after that. With meal prep and takeout boxes, by Friday we had 4 full trash bags in a small cabin, which was not pleasant or relaxing, so we decided to just leave early. It was a very disappointing experience. The cabin itself is lovely and is as described in the listing. For a shorter trip, like a long weekend, the lack of outdoor garbage cans may not be an issue.
