Great cabin super Nice

Very nice Cabin it was everything that was advertised. The only complaint I had was the Bed in the downstairs bedroom was extremely hard. We made it through the first night, when we was out and around town the next morning we purchased a 3” memory foam mattress topper from Walmart. Was very comfortable after that. Cabin was in a good location not far from Gatlinburg. Staff was super nice and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Cute and cozy cabin!

We loved this property! It was super clean and cozy, had everything we needed! The only bad thing I can say is the beds were super hard and the pillows were extremely uncomfortable and lumpy. Of course, people all have differences in opinion about these things, so they could be totally fine for others. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay!
