The house was so stinking cute! My kiddos loved the everything about the decor and they are 13, 11 and 6. Everything was perfectly clean, stocked and in working order. The location being close to everything but far enough to be away from traffic was perfect! We will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful time at Howard’s Hollow. The house was very clean, full kitchen with everything we needed for the week. The beds were very comfortable and my kids loved the bunk beds. The house fit the theme of the Shire perfectly. We would definitely stay here again.

We got married in Gatlinburg, but didn’t want to stay in the busyness of Gatlinburg. This location was perfect. The decor was perfect. It was immaculate and made our wedding getaway perfect!
