We stayed less than 24 hours, got accused of bringing a pet and destroying a parking bumper (we were barely in the cabin for the majority of our stay.) Also you need to make it before dark because the road is crazy and only one vehicle can fit in it. The shower area smelled of mildew.

It was a great stay and we'd love to come back again! Close to Pigeon Forge and a lot of hiking trails so there's always something to do.

Place
Overall the place was good! Relaxing and comforting. The only thing is there is no full bathroom at the cabin only a half bathroom. You have to shower at the guest campground. I would not recommend for toddlers as there is a bunk bed above the main bed and there are ladders. Perfect for only couples!

Amazing
We enjoyed spending time at this cabin. It was exactly what we were looking for when we booked. We wanted to disconnect and spend quality time together. This cabin checked all the boxes for us. Beautiful views, comfortable cabin, fire pit, great and easy communication with property management. It couldn’t have been better. There was even a camp cat that came and visited us he was so cute. He didn’t stay for too long but we enjoyed seeing him. I believe his name was Oliver.

A little surprised.
The overall stay was nice. It was a nice, small cabin. The location was private...sort of and the view was beautiful. If you are used to actual camping in a tent or a RV then this is perfect. We, however, were expecting a normal cabin. The pictures in the listing show a small bathroom with a shower but if you scroll alll the way to the bottom, you will notice that it says "bath house". Which means there's no shower in the actual cabin. You have to drive to another area to shower, which for us was very inconvenient. I 1should have paid more attention. The cabin does have a sink and toilet but no hot water, which didnt make sense. When it was time to check out, we were told to wash the dishes, no hot water, so they wouldnt be very sanitized. We were also instructed to put the trash into our car and drive it to anither address for disposal because there was not a dumpster on-site. Big no-no for us. The cabin, of course, is no smoking but we did not realize we couldnt smoke on the porch either so be mindful of that. Aside from those little issues, it was a pleasant experience. The owners were very responsive and nice. I would suggest bringing your own television. There is wifi but no televisions on location. We wont be booking again but as i said earlier, if you're looking for a real camping experience, then this would be great!

cozy
stayed here the week before Christmas with my 5 year old daughter. it lives up to its name its very cozy little cabin. it was below freezing every night we was there and barely above if any most to the days we was there. the cabin stayed nice and warm. i asked the host to have the heat on when we checked in and they did. the power was out one evening when we got back to the cabin but come back on before we left again. the host brought lanterns and propane heater for us to have incase the power went out again over night.
the cabin is on a very nice old farm on top of a hill on the back of the property.
It was just my daughter and i and when i bring her back to the gatlinburg area i will be staying here again. she had plenty of room to do her thing out side and just enjoy the views.
