This property has one of the most beautiful views in the state of Tennessee that I've seen! The hosts were wonderful and the cabin truly made this a memorable trip. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to get away and enjoy an amazing experience, surrounded by a view you could throw on a postcard.

This was an amazing place to stay great views of the mountains i am definitely going back well worth the cost. There is only one thing that other people may have troubles with is the access it is way up in the mountains and the drive is a little steep and nerve racking but i loved it other may not i give this place 4 out of 5 only because other people may have trouble getting up the drive i had an amazing time around Newport also juat a short drive to Gatlinburg and pigeon forage

A beautiful tiny cabin in the mountains

The cabin and property we're so beautiful. The host had the hot tub heated up before we arrived which was amazing. I would highly recommend this property for anyone who wants a secluded vacation retreat.

Cute and quaint. Very quiet

People on the tall side may struggle with busting their head alot. Overall very cozy and quiet. Owners are super attentive and so sweet. If youre lucky you'll get to say hi to their beautiful sweet german sheppard Heidi. Friendly nearby atmosphere. Bring a car youre confident can make it up a steep gravel drive. Greatful for the chance to stay.

Perfect Tiny House

Beautiful space and I hope we can come back to visit! It was very tight with a car trailer, but the hosts were very kind to let us park in a more accessible spot somewhere else on their property.

Absolutely perfect weekend getaway!

My husband and I booked this property for a night away. It exceeded all expectations! The tiny home was so quaint and super clean- exactly as described. The hot tub was such a plus too! We had dinner under the gazebo overlooking the mountains at sunset. I am already recommending this cabin to my friends. Can’t wait to book another trip!! Thank you to the amazing hosts for sharing this gem with us!
