The host was absolutely amazing! Quick reply and very friendly. We didn’t have WiFi for a day, that was a minus. Other than that, wonderful experience!

We booked this property for a last minute Spring Break trip and couldn’t be happier. The property is exactly as listed. The owner is quick to respond to requests: for example, the grill was out of propane. We asked for another cylinder and he replied immediately and had one on the property ASAP. Everything is cute and cozy. It’s perfect for small families or couples. The area was great as well. We didn’t want to be in town with all the crowds. This is located conveniently between Pigeon Forge and Townsend. Honestly, everything you need is within a short drive. The only thing I could even semi fuss about was the mattress in the bedroom. And I wouldn’t even call it a complaint-more of a disclaimer, but it’s extremely firm. My husband and I both enjoy a firm mattress, but this one took a few days to get used to. By the time we left, we were well adjusted to it. Overall, this property and the owner will definitely be on our list to rent again on our next mountain trip.

This place was perfect for a girls weekend! It is in a great location! Near some cute shops and restaurants while being close enough to the main strip of Pigeon Forge. The host was very attentive if we had any questions. We would love to stay here again!

Perfect little cozy cabin. Great space for 2 adults and 2 children. Very clean and in a beautiful spot. Pet friendly was very important to us and this cabin did not disappoint. Had one small issue—there were no pots (had a couple of skillets) to cook in but when I contacted the owner, we had pots waiting for us at the front door. I highly recommend this cabin and this property owner.

Easy check in and out, host communicated quickly and was helpful. Great rental, location and cute little perks for adventures in the mountains! Also had a large space for my dog to run around 10 out of 10!
