Great cabin for the family trip to Pigeon Forge. Very convenient to town and to the park. Had everything we needed. The board games for the kids was a nice touch and the hot tub was a very nice way to relax at the end of the day. Overall nice place. From the pictures the cabin looked a little more remote but the reality was the view from the front deck overlooked an apartment complex.What could be improved? Master bed has been well used and feels like you’re sleeping in a crater. The arcade game for basketball didn’t work. Couches were a little on the worn side. Unfortunately looks like some prior guests did some damage to the bathroom drywall that wasn’t yet repaired. No shampoo or soap was in the upstairs bathroom.

The listing is deceptive, there are trashy apartments right across the street where they damaged our vehicles by throwing rocks at them and the cabin, and were loud and yelling. The sheets were dirty and it took over 24 hrs to get them to bring clean sheets. There was food and trash in another bedroom. The blinds are broken in almost every room, the silverware was dirty in the drawer and some lights didn’t work. Hot water does not last long when showering and needs a bigger heater for a 4 bedroom cabin. It is a real shame too because the cabin itself would be great if it was maintained and your view was not section 8 apartments. We had to clean before we could use dishes etc. and we left the cabin cleaner than it was before we got there. Host will not respond about any kind of refund on fees, etc.. and had to contact VRBO directly. Do not recommend staying here.

Wonderful
We really enjoyed this cabin. Fit 6 of us very comfortably and would have fit more. The location was pretty good and got us away from the traffic. The downstairs stayed very cool (which is what we wanted) but the upstairs does stay pretty warm even with the air on. I would suggest window units or a separate unit for upstairs. But the property owner brought us several fans and it was a little better. All the beds were comfy. Couldn't figure out how to work the jetted tub. Will definitely be booking with them again!

Just what we needed
We stayed for three days/two nights to see Dollywood. 5 adults and two children.Con: 1)We were given a bad door code and it took a bit to find a good number to have a new number for the door lock.2) the two upstairs bedrooms to the right do not cool down. Owner must know as there is a small fan in each room. It is not adequate.3) Mattress downstairs is very squishy and should be replaced. Pro: 1)Location is great. Off the main drag, but still close. 2) King beds in three of the BRs. 3)lovely firepit area in the back. 4) Plenty of space for our group of 7.

Negligent or Deceptive Business Practices?
Previous reviews of this property are indicative of how the Host interacted with us - negligent at best, deceptive at worst. Overall, if renting this property or others via Avada Properties, exercise caution and take previous reviews seriously. 1 – I was told the manager would call me back a couple times, but still weeks later, no one responded. Turns out, the Host who promised a manager would call is actually the Owner (Avada Properties). Seems pretty deceptive.2 - The 4th bedroom had broken mattress. Negligence considering beds are one of the primary purposes one reserves a VRBO. He did eventually replace on the last night, but it was a slow process. Half our party did not receive promised services. Process also included a haphazard visit by a maintenance after 9pm. 3 - Floors not vacuumed and kitchen surfaces/tables sticky. Host aware of poor cleaning based on previous reviews, but doesn’t seem to have taken measures to ensure cleanliness. 4 - Host aware of broken blinds/privacy based on previous reviews. Assured previous guests it’d be fixed, but blinds were still broken. We hung trash bags for privacy. He told us they would order new ones, but they wouldn’t arrive in time. Is this what he told all his guests?5 - Other maintenance issues: Microwave light broken. Dishwasher bottom rack no wheels. Not sufficient utensils/cups/plates. Pros: Beautiful backyard. AC worked well. Some privacy in front from the apartments/trash cans. Near attractions. Easy check-in.

Not so cozy cottage
The cabin itself is what you would expect from a cabin. There are nice rocking chairs on the covered front porch and a hot tub on the enclosed back porch. The beds were all big and the 2 bathrooms were a decent size. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 at the dining table. The gas grill and air fryer were both dirty. No clue when either was last cleaned. There are also no pot holders in the kitchen. The pillows should all be replaced as they’re all flat and lifeless. The listing calls itself a Cozy Bear Cottage and ‘serene’. I wouldn’t use either of those terms. The cabin is in a very central location, which is great but it is directly across from a run down apartment complex. Far from serene, imo. Sitting on the front porch is less enjoyable when you’re staring at that. The check out instructions were simple and the host responded appropriately.

I wanted to share our experience with the property with you.Overall, the stay was good, but there were a few things that could have been better.We really appreciated that the cabin was cleaned.One thing that was missing was a slat or vane in the blinds in the upstairs bedroom.There were also some missing pieces in the blinds in the living room and lower bedroom.One of the lights in the patio wasn’t working either.I’ve attached a list of the guests and their ages for your reference. We’re a group of 8 people, but there weren’t enough utensils (like drink glasses and coffee mugs) for everyone.
