We’ve stayed in the Smoky Mountains several times and this was by far our favorite place to stay. The walking distance to everything in Gatlinburg doesn’t get any better and it comfortably accommodated our large family. The floors and crevices could use a deep cleaning but the important things like linens and furniture were good. We hope to stay here again on our next visit!

The owners were absolutely amazing, there was some issues beyond their control due to power outage and things but when I messaged they responded in timely manner and communication was an absolute breeze, My family and I have been coming to the area for years but we will definitely be staying in their properties again!! The area was gorgeous the walk to town isn’t bad if you miss the trolley stop at the end of the complex. We are overly impressed with the owners and the area the complex was in!!!
Relaxing for the night after a long day walking around.

Liked: Cleanliness
The stay is by and large pleasant. However, I do have a few thoughts.1. We weren’t aware that laundry detergent wasn’t provided. In all the VRBO properties we’ve stayed at previously, it was usually included, so this caught us a bit off guard.2. The upstairs bedroom was more of an open loft space rather than a fully enclosed room, which made it difficult to get restful sleep due to noise from downstairs.3. The AC control was a bit confusing, and I wasn’t able to adjust the temperature. As a result, the room stayed at 70F even during the night, which felt quite chilly in the morning.4. We noticed the coffee maker still had the used filter and grounds from a previous guest—perhaps something the cleaning team accidentally missed.
