The cabin was beautiful and very convenient for my mother who is in a wheelchair. The host was available anytime I sent a message which was very nice. Would definitely consider staying here again.

The cabin was great and all was well but the drive to get to the cabin was less than desirable, especially the last road that was not paved and very hard to find. We passed it and had to go all the way around to get back to it.

Nice relaxing cabin in the woods
This was a wonderful, relaxing cabin for our family vacation. The hot tub was fabulous! There's no cell service and the wifi is very weak, so don't depend on it. We had to go down into town to use cell service to open a web page to buy tickets for an activity.

Great Cabin!
Overall, the stay was great! My review does reflect that, but there are a few items that were not mentioned that I feel needs mentioning. The cabin is very secluded, which was amazing and exactly what we were looking for. We stayed 5 days and saw bears 3 different days there. When we pulled up there was a mother and a cub just in front of the porch. One morning a lone bear scoped out the garbage container and then walked past the porch and then one evening after turning into the driveway there was a mother bear and 3 cubs walking up the drive foraging for food. We saw more bears there than in Cade's Cove! It was very nice having king beds to sleep in, but we all found the mattresses very stiff. It took me a couple days of poor sleep to get used to them. Also, the cabin is on well water, I grew up on well water so not an issue for me but there is a distinct smell/taste to it is something I think should be noted prior to booking. We purchased bottled water for drinking. The cabin is roughly this far of a drive from the main destinations: 30 min to Pigeon Forge, 45 min to Gatlinburg, 25 min to Cade's Cove, 75 min to Clingman's Dome. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and had a great time exploring the Smokys!

Great location that was secluded and quiet, yet a short drive to great hiking locations and entertainment! It was just what we were looking for! The cabin was clean, adorably furnished, and stocked with everything we needed. There was also a great informational guide to local eateries and attractions. So helpful! The host was easy to communicate with and quick to reply. We had a great stay and would definitely stay again!
