There were some Bear issues coming on the deck during the night and hanging out most days we were there. Some of the lamps did not work, light switches, electrical plug ins not working. Not what you would expect for a house up for sale. With all that said it had a Wonderful skyline to loof at.

Great size for large groups, but dated

Our stay included a group of 10 individuals. And the spacious size of the house fit our group well. We never felt like we were on top of each other. We knew from past reviews that the house/decor was dated, but there were some issues that made it seem like the property isn’t being taken care of. There were large water stains on the wall and carpet in the basement bedroom (took up one of the corner of the room) - we understand things happen, but fix it and make it look presentable. Ripped up/shredded carpet in multiple places. In one bathroom, the only mirror was a medicine cabinet on a hinge and it wouldn’t stay closed, so no one could have used it because it stayed all the way open; we had to buy something to fix it so our group could use it. A lot of the outlets in the house were so old, nothing would stay plugged into them. For those folks where bed size matters - this property is not displaying the correct bed sizes. The bedroom that has 2 beds in it - they are both full size beds…not queens! And one of the other bedrooms only has a queen. So, only 2 bedrooms have king sized beds. We had some issues with the WiFi. We were provided with the wrong WiFi network for the house from multiple sources (the paperwork at the house, the check-in email I received, and in a follow up message with the host). We never did get the correct one.

Great location for adults and older children

I booked this property within 10 minutes after out original booking canceled us due to a burst pipe. I'll list out the pros and cons separately instead of rambling. Pros- 1. The view is great. It's basically at the top of the mountain. Those sunsets were gorgeous. 2. The check in process was easy. 3. We saw multiple bears as promised. Despite one causing damage to our vehicle, they were cute. My review does not reflect the actions of the wildlife. 4. The road will spit you out at the end of Gatlinburg or onto the Parkway so it was accessible to local attractions without being bothered by them. 5. Everyone in our party had their own space and the layout was nice. 6. The hot tub was clean. 7. The kitchen appliances were nice and new. 8. Every room had a box fan. Loved that! 9. The kitchen had plenty of items to use. Cons: 1. There were issues that also served as safety hazards. I'm in child protective services so it's my job to assess safety. My daughter is 2 and very mobile. The slats on the main level balcony were spaced out enough for her to slip through. There was no lock on the screen door so we were super vigilant in making sure she did not go on the balcony. It just caused added stress. There was a nail sticking out of the bottom edge of the paneling that my husband had to hammer back in. The upstairs shower was slippery and my daughter slipped and hit her head on the stone edge. She wasn't playing or anything, simply and cautiously stepping in. When we transitioned to the tub downstairs, the coating in the tub was peeling off into the water. There was a piece of broken glass in the floor that was discovered the evening of our arrival. 2. The basement smelled of cat urine after a few days. It had rained a lot so it got rather dank down there. The smell was pretty strong. 3. There was a pile of dog/cat hair on the side of one of the living room chairs. I have no issue with animals but it worried me about the cleanliness. 4. This is personal preference but the beds were too firm for me, my parents and my grandparents. My sons and husband had no complaints. 5. One of the toilets was not bolted down properly-the basement bathroom, I think. 6. The TV in the upstairs left bedroom had issues that ended up resolving but it took a lot of work. That's the bulk of it. The furniture and decor could've used some updating but that wasn't a concern. Everyone has different tastes. I enjoyed the location and the wildlife sightings

The overall stay at the cabin was phenomenal with its scenic and immaculate view shining towards the city; even though the doors closing out the blue, which was a mystery. the stay was worth it with its peace and quiet hotub. the only misleading part of the cabin was the everyday seeing a bear.

Way too expensive for what was offered. Read the full review

This property is wayyyyy overpriced for what it offers. We paid $3800 to stay for a week here and were really disappointed at how things turned out. Instead of having fun, we had to spend 3 days in the cabin while the maintenance folks tried to fix a number of issues (see details below). We weren't required to be there while they fixed it but we chose to stay as we had to ensure the issues were addressed (but not all issues were resolved). The customer service /property managers were very responsive and we got 20% refund when we complained, but we would have rather stayed some place else. The Good: 1. Very Scenic location 2. Lots of bears. We saw at least one everyday throughout our one week stay 3. Responsive property managers and customer service The Bad: 1. Biggest complaint was that the central AC on both top floor rooms wasn't working. There's a portable AC in one of the top floor rooms but the other one was just way too hot to spend in summer time. 2. The top floor rooms only has one queen bed and two full beds (as opposed to one King and Two queens listed in the Ad). Another review pointed this as well. This is just false advertising. 3. The shower in lower floor bathroom did not work. No water at all 4. Very slow water flow in the kitchen (to the point it was unusable). I had to send video with the open faucet to their maintenance team as they wouldn't believe it. 5. The cabin is very dated and the amenities aren't that great: (a) Porcelain in main level bathtub is chipping all over and blocking the drain. (b) The Carpet near the main level bedroom door is not attached to the floor (c) The BBQ charcoal grill has a completely rusted grate, rendering it unusable.

Bears all around

Property is dated. Don’t understand why we are charged 289$ for cleaning, if the property is not clean. Once you get over the old house smell and explore the house it’s a good stay. We saw bears and Cubs twice. Drive to property from ski mountain rd is tricky with steep uphill at multiple spots, make sure tires are good on vehicle. I saw vehicles in front of me struggling. House number is only on one side so not easy to find the property, could be fixed easily by property management. There is not much area around the property, backyard is small and other houses are too close.

Bedbugs found in lower & main level bedding - we left early. Air conditioning not working on upper level. Air return filters completely clogged with dust/dirt. Hot water not working in upper & lower level shower. Laundry room lights worked intermittently. Exposed wiring on air units in laundry area. Broken chair stuck back together. By far the worst vacation rental in 35yrs of travel.

Gatlinburg was great, house was just ok.

The bed count listed is incorrect. There are 2 kings, 1 queen and 2 full beds. We picked this house because it's listed as having 3 kings. Overall cleanliness is mediocre, do not walk around barefoot on the carpets. Location and view are great, would be nice to have a warning about the drive up, very steep and curvy, no guard rails.

You’re paying for the view!

Our family of four, stayed here, with a friend’s family of five. We had four adults, two young teens and three kids. All of rooms are very spacious and the kitchen is well stocked. Some beds were better than others, but overall, we all slept well. This house has older finishes, but I believe it adds to the charm of a Gatlinburg vacation. The deck has plenty of seating with a hot tub and spectacular views. We had a bear visitor three times and watched him/her try to get into our vehicles. Don’t forget to keep those doors locked. We arrived in town early and planned to eat and check out the area, until the 4:00 check in time, but received a phone call stating that it would be later than 4:00 for check in, as the cleaners were not finished. We arrived at the house shortly after 4:00 and waited in the driveway for the cleaners to finish. We entered the house around 4:45 but they continued outside, refilling the hot tub. Our other guests didn’t arrive until 5:00, so it really wasn’t a big deal. You could tell the house had been cleaned, very quickly. There was a lot of dust and cobwebs, the sheets were clean, but the bedspreads and shams didn’t look clean. the bathrooms and kitchen were cleaned well. The house did have a faint pet small, after the smell of the cleaning products wore off. The hot tub had been freshly filled, but because is it isn’t treated properly with chemicals and ph adjustments, it got pretty bad, pretty fast. I believe they just empty it after each week, refill it, and throw in the floating chlorine tablets. It did get hot, which was great. We loved using the hot tub in the mornings and evenings. The only thing we had issues with were, the lower level toilet, wasn’t bolted to the floor, the upstairs and lower level showers had very weak pressure (the main level was fine), and the tv in the master didn’t work. The floors are very squeaky and you can hear every step and voice through, to the level below. Overall it was a great place for the price, especially for a large group. The drive up to the cabin is beautiful and adventurous. The view off of the deck was worth every penny! I would rent this cabin again.

Chalet not what I paid for

This is my email to Erik concerning our chalet trip last weekend and he has yet to respond to me: Well it started out wrong. We arrived at the chalet at 4:05 and there was a red truck in the driveway with trash in the back and the lights were on in the house. I knocked on the door but no one would answer so I called ur office. The lady I spoke to said to use the door code and open the door. I did and there was music playing loud so I was afraid to walk in. I hollered and still no one would answer so my husband walked in and shouted several times yet no one would answer. The house was a wreck. The lady from ur office called the cleaning place and they said they thought check in was 5. The lady told me they would have it cleaned in an hour if I could wait. By this time I was very upset. We had just bought groceries and had other family coming. It was actually 4:50 before they finished cleaning. The lady from ur office would not offer another chalet. She did offer $60 for dinner but we had 8 people and that would not have paid our dinner. She also said she could take some off the cleaning. I was so aggravated by this time I thought that was just not enough! She said she would call me today and see what else she could do but I have not heard a thing from her. When we finally got in my husband went to make him some coffee and the coffee maker had old coffee grinds in it and wasn’t cleaned out. My daughter said there was hair and makeup on her pillow. We have 1 kitchen towel and between 3 families for 2 days we have 3 towels for each family which isn’t enough. We went to use the hot tub and one of the knobs blew off and water went everywhere. Also the jets were not working either I called ur office and the lady sent a guy last night at 9pm to temporarily fix it. The beds are hard, the living room furniture is very uncomfortable due to being so old, and just to let u know the upstairs screen door isn’t in good shape either and it was like that when we got there. I have taken some pictures of these things should u need them as proof. We are making the best of this situation with what time we have but we have stayed in 10 chalets now over several years and I have to say this one is the worst. It really needs an upgrade and for all the trouble we have experienced I believe we deserve a refund. If only someone would respond to me
