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.

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.

Not horrible....

The cabin was not horrible. Would we stay again, possibly but needs some updates. Its a little tricky to find at first but in a good location close to everything. Would be hard to get to in the snow. The cabin did look like the pictures but a lot of updates are needed. The eyes to the stove were broke and you cant read the thermostat. The bed sags towards the middle so you are sleeping sideways some. The back door knob is loose, falling off and the grill is very outdated and not able to use. Overall not horrible but definitely needs some attention. Also not a deal breaker but the christmas decorations were still out and my husband put them in the closet. They were not plugged in just sitting around like someone started to put them up then quit.

Great stays are made in the details…

Walking in the door when we first arrived, it had the same feel as the pictures. However, we began looking around & noticed lots of room for improvement. First, there were 2 very noticeable stains on one of the pillow shams. These were fresh stains that could easily be gotten out if the shams were washed. Next, the mattress had a very large & visibly obvious sag in it where it’s worn out & in desperate need of replacement. Same with the pillows - sleeping on them was like sleeping on empty pillow cases. The fireplace quit working on our last night after only ~3 hours of total use during the stay. The porch light wasn't working - wouldn’t have been such a big deal to us if the porch wasn’t slanted (intentionally, like for snow?) & it wasn’t getting dark so early. I’d also suggest taking more time to keep spider webs knocked down. The outside wasn’t bad but there were definitely plenty of old ones on the inside that needed to be wiped down. As far as the bathroom, I would also suggest taking the time to wipe the mildew off the ceiling. Again, not a huge deal to us but it doesn’t present well to guests. The shower curtain liner was covered in mildew & needs replacement. Last thing was that we went out on the porch on our last night & the door knob was just laid in the door, so it pulled right out. Not a terrible stay, it just wasn’t kept up to what I would consider reasonable standards.
