Perfect and quaint
It was just my husband and myself. We planned to do a lot of activities and this cabin was perfect. We were close to the strip but far enough to enjoy the quiet at night. We did notice an issue with the AC leaking and they came out immediately to fix. We will definiteky stay again when its just us

A charming, beautiful and cozy cabin with amazing views and a fantastic fire pit. Very comfortable for our family and the loft was amazing for my daughter. Great access to Jayell Ranch which has a ton of things to do and the most delightful staff who are willing to help with any request! Definitely recommend these cabins!!!

Neat little cabin but needs improvement
Its a cute cabin but the listing did not mention shower drainage issue, had to stand in a pool of water and then wait 10 mins to drain. Owners replied quickly and promptly to the issue by saying there is an air bubble on the drain and to lift the drain , but the metal part does not move at all to lift plus i didnt want to be standing and draining things. Gross.
Owner did offer maintenance help in the am but we had a short trip and did not want to waste time waiting for the maintenance person to get there and fix. Wifi did not work.

Sweet Mountain View Cabin
With the exception of our having to wait an hour to get in the cabin do to the delay if a departing renter and the cleaning crew having to clean after our check in, this was a very comfortable high end constructed and elegantly decorated cabin. The bed slept wonderfully, great bedding and pillows, wonderful mattress. Shower and tub top notch. Loved it. Views were wonderful, from horses in the fields just down from the porch, mountains everywhere just minutes from Dollywood Parrot Mountain and the middle of Pigeon Forge, but once at the cabin you felt like you were well into the country, which we love love love. Would come again without question.

Much needed getaway
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Secretariat at Jayell Ranch cabins. Wonderful finishes, meticulously clean and wonderful times by the fire. We loved petting the horses right outside our front door. Excellent environment for recharging and getting away from the hustle and bustle, but only minutes from Pigeon Forge. Highly recommend.

Luxury Lodging, Budget Price
Everything about my stay was absolutely amazing, from booking to checkout. Prior to my trip, I had some questions about the property's location and some of the amenities and every time I reached out to the owners, I always received a very quick and courteous response. The property is easy to access with no steep mountain roads to traverse yet still has a stunning view. It's close to the strip at about a five minute drive but far enough away that it's quiet and peaceful. The cabin has it's own driveway with it's own parking area and the owners have recently installed a wonderful outdoor area at each cabin, complete with wooden swings, Adirondack rockers, fire pits, and grills all underneath beautiful patio string lights. The cabin itself could not be any more beautiful and certainly no detail was spared in the design of these little log cabins. The photos certainly do not do this place justice! The space is small, but well thought out and luxuriously appointed; it offered plenty of room for me to stretch out as a solo traveller, for my friends next door to spread out as a pair, and the family of four next door to them to have space as well. The bed was comfy, the linens were plush and soft, and there were plenty of bath linens as well. Speaking of the bath...that claw foot tub is what dreams are made of and the shower is opulent with it's rainfall showerhead. Though I didn't use it, those travelling with a friend or a small family will love the loft area.. Creature comforts such as a ceiling fan with lights, cable television, and a super cold A/C unit help to make this cabin feel like home. If you're like me and don't cook on vacation, there is a small refrigerator to store snacks and beverages and a microwave to heat up those leftovers from the numerous delicious restaurants around. And all of this came at less than the cost of a hotel for the week. As someone who travels to the area quite frequently and often on my own, I could not have been happier with this place! I have already begun planning for a return trip next year for Jeep Invasion and have recommended it to several friends as well. I can't wait to return!

Tiny House
The cabin is decorated beautifully but there was no place to put clothes, only a knob to hang a few clothes. There was only one chair inside so we were sitting on the front porch drinking coffee when the concrete workers showed up to work at our front porch. We left for a while to come back and find the workers sitting on our front porch eating pizza. I believe it will be a nice place to stay, we were just there to early.
