Beautiful spot and really appreciated being able to bring our pups along with us. The land immediately around the cabin does have some litter around, but that's not really the owners fault, just careless vistors. The home was clean and had beautiful views of the mountains. We felt very safe as the cabin is quite high up and near the end of a road so there isnt too much traffic going by. The drive way and roads up to the cabin are very steep so keep that in mind if you're not used to traveling in the mountains! (We're from FL and were very thankful there was no ice!)
The location is great for all types of travelers in my opinion, and is located directly between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. If you want to shop, bar hop, eat great local cuisine, visit local attractions you're smack in the middle of the two bustling towns. If you're going for the mountain views and hikes, there are plenty just beyond Gatlinburg, and it's also great for those who want to just hang around the cabin (tv, wifi, card games, pool table, and hot tub were provided). Excellent trip overall!
