A perfect family getaway!
Excellent communication and a wonderful location! You wont hear city noise or any noise for that matter, because it literally is on a mountain ridge top!! Plenty of bear trails and views from every side of property. I will say…if you don't have an all wheel drive you probably don’t need to attempt in winter months. Lol

Very cute cabin
Husband family lives in New Orleans & we live in Miami so we figured we would meet up in Gatlinburg. Didn’t expect the house to be so high up in the mountain.. little bit of anxiety there but it was a great experience. The house was clean & well decorated. We can’t complain. We wanted to spend time with family we had not seen in years & we did. We cooked a lot in the beautiful kitchen & also bbq’d. Would definitely stay there again.

Gorgeous property!
The drive up the mountain is not for the faint of heart, but the views and peace once you get to the house are well worth it! Home was gorgeous and well stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of space, lots to do in the home - games, pool, arcade set up and hot tub. So peaceful and relaxing, beds were super comfortable. We even had a couple bear sightings! Communication with property owners was easy. Very much recommend!

Weekend Getaway With The Girls
When arriving at the cabin
We received a nice little welcome basket with goodies in it. That was thoughtful. There are a few things that needed to be addressed. Most important was the cleanliness of the cabin. We had to call the manager on the first night there after a long travel day because one of the beds in the bedroom did not have clean linen on it. Bed linen had stains, human and pet hair all over it. The manger offered to come change the linen however he was over an hour away. Because of how late it was, he just gave us the code to the linen closet to change ourselves and sent someone to change them the next morning. This was also an inconvenience as they arrived just as we were getting up and preparing to start the day. The cleaning ladies also entered the cabin with their master code I guess without permission to enter. There were clearly cars parked outside the cabin but we weren’t given time to get to the door. I’m a stickler about cleanliness at hotels cabins or wherever so for us this put a very negative start to our stay. The cabin also needs a bit of dusting!! We have been to Gatlinburg multiple times and this cabin didn’t compare to some others that we have stayed in. The pictures online was a bit deceiving. The ice maker on the fridge didn’t work and there was no outside lighting at the front door when entering at night. Multiple bulbs were out in the kitchen. Overall, we would not recommend this cabin. For the price, you could stay somewhere a lot nicer!

Stay at Cabin
It was a nice place. Comfortable and home like, but it looked liked it had not been cleaned very well. The floors were dirty, the showers and tub was not cleaned hair all in it. Had to clean it before we showered.
