Cabin in the Mountains

First of all, I do want to say that the drive to the cabin is very, very steep and has a narrow road. Other than the drive up the cabin was extraordinary and very well kept. The balcony up top is a great place to sit and have your coffee and just listen to the wildlife. Our first night there we did see 6 bear near the cabin so if you want to see wildlife I think you’ll see it here. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful cabin and location

What a GORGEOUS cabin especially in the Fall! I enjoyed my morning coffee in a different spot each morning (I was obsessed with the pretty mugs). The views were just beautiful and the neighborhood was so peaceful. All of the decorative details were perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed. Thank you Nancy for being a gracious and responsive host and for sharing this lovely cabin!!

Just close enough and just enough removed!

We had a wonderful 25th anniversary stay at Aunt Lib’s Shine Shack! More room than we needed for 2, for sure, but we used and enjoyed it all! Home away from home. We enjoyed the breeze in the enclosed sunroom and the post-hke soaks in the hot tub! My husband enjoyed trying to make high scores on the game table while I grabbed a great read from Nancy’s book selection. We saw 7 bear during our stay and got many wonderful steps in on nearby trails… and ate and drank well along the way! We will be back!!! Highly recommend!!! Thanks Nancy :-)

Excellent for groups

Overall excellent experience. We were able to spot a bear next to the cabin as well. Extra blind for kitchen/patio door could have added the coziness/safety. Basic toiletries and towels were provided which was good but Makeup towels were not that clean and had hair on it!! But overall cleanliness was really good. Would strongly recommend.

Perfect modern cabin retreat for families!

The home and property were equally beautiful. Very clean and modern but with the cabin feel we love. Very comfortable beds and furniture. Our teen girls also loved it! My husband and I spent a lot of time on the screened in porch sipping coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. It was the perfect setting. 😊

First timers

We planned a couples trip to experience the Smokey Mountains. The stay was perfect. The cabin had everything you could think of. It’s quite the experience driving in the mountains but we adjusted quickly. We even had a Bear and baby cub only a few yards away from the cabin making its way though. We enjoyed all the hiking. Favorite place to eat was the Local Goat in Pigeon Forge. We enjoyed the General Store there for souvenir shopping as the stuff was not tacky.

Peaceful

This cabin is beautiful! It is quiet and peaceful after a day in the city or hiking. It's clean and we'll stocked with supplies for cooking/grilling. We enjoyed our stay very much. The location between Gatlinburg and pigeon forge is really nice, you can easily get to either pretty quickly. The upstairs game room was a family family. I'd definitely recommend staying here. We'll be returning someday soon

Perfect Family Vacation

Aunt Lib's Shine Shack earns a well deserved 5 star review from this happy family! Attentive best describes this owner/property. Prior to the vacation we had a small issue with billing that was resolved easily and promptly through email. During our stay we accidently tripped a fuse with too many blow dryers and emailed to find the fuse box with immediate response and even had follow up! Every detail in the house is thought out. You can tell that instead of a large business with many properties the manager is person who is thinking about their visitors and strives to make their vacation excellent. A few things to know: The drive up to the property is in the mountains so expect it to be exciting. There is a nice table to eat at in the screened in porch but if it's chilly when you stay there isn't a kitchen table inside. It didn’t effect our stay.

Superb Stay at the Shine Shack

This was our first vacation as a family of four and the shine shack was perfect. It was super clean, and stocked with the essentials. We enjoyed the games, hot tub, fireplace and outside wood burning fire. We had one little maintenance issue that was taken care of promptly. We didn't want to leave this little piece of smokey mountain paradise. The road to/from shine shack is pretty narrow and typical of the mountain roads. I would recommend to friends and family and would definitely return. Thank you for making our home away from home perfect.
