Beautiful property with lovely sunset views! We saw an amazing Barred Owl in a tree right outside the front door! The neighbors up the hill saw a bear in the middle of the road but it left before we could see it so they are definitely around! The home is better equipped than many rental homes we have stayed in with the kitchen items we needed and enough hand soap, toilet paper, etc for our stay. Thank you for opening up your home for our family and our dog!

We loved our stay at this beautiful cabin. It was perfectly laid out with a bedroom and bath on every level. The bottom floor even had bunk beds which was an awesome surprise. The sunset views were to die for. The porches are definitely where we spent most of our time. The host was amazing and very attentive to our needs. We so appreciated and enjoyed our stay.

The property was above average overall! We have stayed in this area many times, the views (and bears) don’t disappoint. Kitchen was great, beds were great and the game room was fun! The only thing we didn’t appreciate was the dog hair accumulation under beds and tables and highly visible on the black bedding.

The cabin was beautiful! We loved that each floor had its own bedroom and bathroom. The view was spectacular at sunrise and sunset. The kitchen was well equipped, with lots of counter space. The location is perfect, close to Townsend, Cades Cove, Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg. The host was wonderful to work with and communication was above expectations! Any time we had questions, we quickly got a response.

This cabin was cozy, charming and clean. The kitchen was well stocked; so much so, that we prepared a full Thanksgiving Dinner. The living space had a smart tv and a wood burning stove that we enjoyed. The location was perfect for seeing Cade's Cove, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Dinner at Dancing Bear was excellent; we know now though to make a reservation if we go again. Our host was hospitable and available by phone. As a VRBO host myself, I can say this place was top notch!

Wonderful atmosphere!

This place could best be decided as high end modern industrial with lots of wood (which I love) meets Martha Stewart. I especially loved the beds and the bedding, and it was THE most dog friendly place I’ve stayed at ever. I would definitely stay here again. I would love to buy the place!

The kitchen had plenty of room with extra large dining table. Our host reached out to us personally when I had a booking question. Would highly recommend.

Pictures do not do it justice. The home is beautiful. We even had a bear visit the place in the early morning. It is very peaceful here. We would definitely stay again. Some advice to travelers would be to bring headlamps if you have a dog for nightime use. Also the grill is charcoal, so be sure to bring that. Owners were great on communication.
