Good property for a couple. Good kitchen set up with reliable appliances. Only concern would be insects in the cabin, but seeing that your in a cabin in the woods, bugs are to be expected to some degree.

The location is excellent. Walking distance into Gatlinburg is fantastic. Counters, bedding, linens, all clean and nice. The cabin itself needs a deep cleaning. Walls and floors were somewhat dirty. It's a cabin.. in the woods.. i get it. But it needs sealed up and treated for millipedes and spiders. We killed a lot of them. Please add a broom and dustpan to your cabins. I'd stay again.

Convenient and cozy

A nice little place just off the strip. Equivalent cost to a hotel with much more to offer and privacy. The only thing wrong was the light on the hot tub did not work and the chemicals were off.
