PET FEE: $75/night/pet (minimum $225 per stay)
SOME NOTES ABOUT THE MOUNTAINS: - This is the mountains and cell service may be spotty - There may be some twisty roads - This is in the forests and mountains and you will likely see bugs, mice, or furry critters (maybe bears!). We do maintain the property with regular pest control, but due to the surroundings, or if doors are left open, or food is left outside the house, this can attract critters. - There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc.
- PLEASE NOTE: Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away and unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes.
- The cabin has well water and when first turning the hot water on it can have a slight sulfur smell. If present, this should go away after a minute or two and is typically just when you first turn it on the first day. After you start using the water regularly it goes away. Also, the water can sometimes come out a little brown, typically when flushing the toilets, etc. This is normal. The water is drinkable, but we still recommend using the filtered water from the fridge. - Cell phone service is very spotty in the area, so download the maps offline before arriving.
The community pool and fishing pond are run by a 3rd party and we have no control over closures, etc. that may occur. No refunds will be issued for closures of these amenities.
Fireplace is electric powered and is typically shut off between March/April and October/November.
Note: This is the mountains and WiFi and cell phone service can sometimes be spotty and lose service. If the internet does go out, try resetting the router first. We highly recommend you download maps of the area offline prior to arriving.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.
Note from host: Butts must be disposed of properly. Wildfire Risk.

Viewing the cabin on here and then going to the cabin was not the best experience. Pulling up to the cabin the hill to get to the cabin is a crazy steep hill! There is no lights to the driveway no marker lights or anything on the driveway. Upon walking into the cabin it was not clean! Items broken stains all over items. No game system tvs not working. The steps to go to the upstairs kitchen living room area are busted and look very worn down. Pool table in basement was broken and also had a lot of stains all over it! Beam bags ripped and also stains allOver them. Contacted the host he offered to have the cleaners come but we did it ourselves. Not even an offer to have any money back or anything when I booked this cabin 6 months in advance! Wired hanging out of the ceiling above bunk beds. Blinds broken on one door and completely missing on the other door. Overall the stay was not the experience my family and I were hoping for. Just be aware of these things when booking this cabin! 10/10 would not recommend this experience

The hot tub didn't work properly the knobs were missing and couldn't get all the jets to work. Very dusty when my bedding had to find a blanket that was in a closet so i didn't have to smell dust. Had to clean the tubs before use due to being dirty. There is no iron. The theater room would not work for the tv and took a few days to get a new remote. All this should have been working. the tub downstairs jets did not work. The phone number to contact host was useless. I had to go through the site to contact him and it took forever to get a response. I feel like i should get my cleaning charge back since i had to clean to use the place

Family fun in the Smoky Mountains
We enjoyed our stay! The kids loved the media room and the hot tub was amazing! Some seating back by the hot tub would be a great addition. The driveway is difficult, but it is to be expected in the mountains- some reflective driveway markers would be helpful for navigating the driveway at night. Alejandro was very responsive to any questions or issues we had and check-in was a breeze. Location of the cabin was great- just about everything you’d want to go do/see was within 30 minutes or so. The private hot tubs in the rooms are an excellent addition! The wrap around deck was perfect for my morning coffee and for bear watching- we easily saw more than a dozen bears during our 6 night stay at the cabin! I would recommend this cabin to anyone staying in the area. It is a great place to unwind after a full day of fun in the Smoky Mountains!

Comfortable
The cabin was very comfortable and spacious! We were a group of 12 and didn’t feel like we were constantly bumping into each other. We loved how easy it was to communicate with the owners and how quickly they responded. The address sign was difficult to see and this is definitely made for more of a 4WD car, but it’s still manageable. We definitely had great experience! I will say, if you get up to drink coffee on the porch by where you park, be careful! We had a bear encounter our 2nd morning there. It was exciting, but also a little scary. We will definitely be renting this cabin again in the future!

Perfect for bear viewing!
We slept 12 here and had plenty of room. The 2nd floor wrap around balcony was perfect for safely viewing the many active bear in the area. We took bear spray, never needed it. Better safe than sorry. The drive can be tricky at the bend but a regular sized vehicle will have no problem. We had an extended length van we parked at the bottom of the drive. Not a bad walk up though. I would rent this again. Homey, comfortable, roomy, convenient to tourist areas.
