We had a wonderful time! The house was clean and welcoming. We were able to fit all our family members in the cozy rooms and around the tables! The view was awesome and the local area provided great food and souvenir shops. Make sure to take the sky lift that is right by the entrance: great view!

We enjoyed staying at this cabin it was spacious enough to accommodate our large family and we loved being in Wears Valley. There is a bear family that stays around the property and we saw them almost every day. One bear stayed in the tree beside the deck and my kids loved waking up to see if he was still there. They also loved the large game room downstairs. The beds were very comfortable and we had plenty of bathrooms for everyone. There is a skylift walking distance to the cabin and highly recommend checking that out and also the general store at the bottom of the hill. The view was also definitely beautiful. Would stay here year after year!

The host was great. This property is beautiful and has a great view of the mountains from the front porch. Location was perfect for our motorcycle rides, and trips to Pigeon Forge and Sevierville. The parking wasn't great for trucks and motorcycles trailers. And not an easy ride upto the house and down the driveway. The house was basically clean, but could use a good deep cleaning. Over all we loved our stay here and would highly recommend this property.

Very nice property. We enjoyed our stay. There are some maintenance needs. Bears were an issue and were there every day. Also would be nice to have some contact numbers if there was a problem. We did contact the host thru VBRO about a shower/water leak issue but received no response. Overall we enjoyed our time at this property.

The cabin is very spacious, we had 16 people and it was great. The location was good. The drive is very steep, but easily manageable. We had two vehicles, and a church van. The view is awesome, the bedrooms spacious. The house was very clean. The only issue we had was the upstairs shower had been patched and when one of the boys took a shower the patch failed and leaked through the ceiling. I immediately notified the owner, and they said maintenance would be out the next day, I don't know if they did or not. We had the two boys shower in our room. The communication could have been better. When we left I messaged to let them know we were leaving and received a thumbs up. No thank you or anything. For the amount of money I spent a thank you, or I am sorry for your trouble would have been nice. I requested the 10 percent rebate that is on the listing before we got there but haven't heard from that either, I am not leaving bad stars because other than those very minor things this was a great stay. Better communication would have made this a 5 star stay. Things break and can't be held against the homeowner. If the 10 percent group/first responder discount is not available then maybe remove it from the listing to avoid issue.

Cabin was beautiful and as advertised. Minor trouble upon arrival but host quickly took care of the situation. My Wife and I plus Children and Grandchildren and Son in Laws loved the place. Beds were very comfortable and cabin easily handled our large family. Location is close enough and also far enough away. Bears were there daily but just wanted to say hi.

It was a great location for our group of 15 adults and 2 toddlers. We had several close up interactions with a mama bear and 3 babies on the balcony, so stay alert when coming and going. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook for our big group. The only critiques we had echo what others have said here: place needs a deep clean. While kitchen and bathrooms were very clean, places like under couch cushions and ceiling fans were not. (And toddlers find everything.) Had some dust bunnies land in our coffee when a fan was turned on. Otherwise, it was very comfortable for the price. Host was very responsive. Would book again!

Propert was fine. Loved the house. It was dusty. Xmas or same ya under couch cushions. Soda cans on outside of home when we got there. The key pad on main door couldn’t get to work. On a daily basis the power in one of the room kept popping. When we arrived water bottle by hot tub. The WiFi didn’t work after the first day. Had to use hot spot

12 of us celebrating a 40th bd party with family. Great location, lots of bear sightings. We enjoyed the deck every evening. The dining table was large enough for us to all sit and play cards. and the 10% military discount is definitely a plus! The beds are a bit uncomfortable, especially the ones in the downstairs bedroom with the two beds. the bunkbeds in the game room need to be replaced, they squeaked all night, even with just one child using it. The sofa couch in the main living area is very uncomfortable to sit on. We did not use it as a bed. The seven bedrooms included the sofa couch in the living room the open area bunkbeds in the game room and the sofa bed in the game room. The house could use a thorough cleaning lots of cobwebs and dust everywhere. with all that being said, we really enjoyed our stay and finding accommodations for the size of a group is not always easy. We try and do family trips every two years and this trip did not disappoint.

The house was exactly as expected. The only reason I can’t give 5 stars is because the box spring of the bed in the loft was broken and pretty much unusable. We notified the property manager and they responded very quickly that it would be fixed the coming week.
