The cabin was very nicely furnished, and we had everything we needed for our stay. Took me a little while to find the dishwasher tabs, but finally found them under the sink. Our grandsons enjoyed the pool table, even though they really didn't know how to play pool.

The only way to stay at the smokies

The property and home are beautiful. My family of 4 had a blast staying at Hill Hikers Haven. The pool table is a plus, and being able to cool off at the local community pool was perfect. The home is situated in the best part of the area, close to everything. Definitely would stay here again!

This was our 2nd stay at Hill Hiker's Haven, and just like last year, it was magical. We prefer to be outside, not shopping, so the proximity to the Park was great. It isn't too far to drive into Pigeon Forge for a meal, though. The cabin is clean, well equipped, and has, unusually, plenty of parking. The view from the balcony is beautiful. The hosts are so nice and responsive; we didn't have a problem but did have a special request which they gladly fulfilled.

We had a large group of family that stayed here and I can't say more how beautiful and breath taking our stay was. From the climb to the cabin to the views. We got to see many bears with a mama with cubs though it kept you on your toes anytime you had to go outside was beautiful to see. The place was clean spacious and accommodating in every way. I would recommend this place and or stay here if we ever took another trip to Tennessee.

The cabin is well maintained and very clean. The kitchen appliances are new, and we especially liked the pot/pan set, which seem were in excellent condition. There drive up the mountain is steep, something to keep in mind if there's snow on the ground and you're not driving a 4x4 or 4wd vehicle.

Cozy cabin with views

The cabin was a nice place for me and my family to stay at. We had no Internet when we showed up, but the owner got someone to come out the same day to fix it which was nice. We had a little bit of a view of the mountains that was nice to sit out on the porch with a cup of coffee. I would stay there again the next if it's available whenever we decide to come back to Tennessee.
