This was a great place for us. Very clean, inviting, warm and friendly atmosphere that is dog friendly. The beds were comfortable. All amenities you can expect from home. The pictures were accurate shown on the website are accurate.The game room was so much fun. I enjoyed the nostalgia of playing Ms. Pac-Man and the fussball game. Such peace and quoet on the porches with rocking chairs. Thanks for the gift of wine & bottle holder. Terisita and her family are great hosts. Now be prepared for a "hilly" ride and a beautiful cabin. We enjoyed our terrific stay and recommend this place.

No idea how this property is rated 5 stars. Pictures overstate the cabin which is dated and in need of maintenance, but especially on the exterior.We had a major communication issue upon check-in that caused unnecessary stress and wasted a lot of time. We asked about early checkin and were told the cabin was ready to check in anytime. When part of our group arrived early to take a work meeting, the cleaner was still there and was unaware that we were set to arrive early. Property mgr said she hadn’t told us we could check in early even though it was clearly in writing in the app. The 3 members of our party who were there said we they’d leave after the call in less than 30 minutes, but the cleaner was “uncomfortable”, so she left the floors and outdoor space dirty. The problem was that the previous guests, who had apparently rented after the PM told us the cabin was ready, left it disgusting-chicken, m&m’s, crumbs all over the floor and dog poop on the deck. We cleaned the floors but not the dog poop. Communications was all apparently our fault because we checked in early when we were given express permission to do so. The tone of the PM changed once we called VRBO because an early check in charge was placed on our account-not sure exactly what happened there but the PM said it was because she called to report that the cabin couldn’t be cleaned because we arrived early. All very confusing as we have had over 30 absolutely perfect stays in other properties.

My family enjoyed the cabin so much, everything was so homey and very clean! My 6 girls under the age of 8 enjoyed the games and we all had lots of space. The hot tub was amazing & so relaxing. Having a dog crate was very helpful and saved us much needed space in the vehicle. We did have a water issue through the whole resort on Monday the day before checkout and they were great with reaching out and offered a refund for the night without hassle. I most def will be visiting again!

Wonderful cabin in a great location

This cabin was perfect for our multi-generation stay. The bedrooms and baths afforded privacy and separation for everyone while the great room and kitchen/dining area let us gather easily. Even with other cabins nearby, it was very peaceful and quiet.The cabin was very clean. We did not use the hot tub due to the extreme heat wave. WiFi access was a breeze and worked well. The "littles" were enchanted by the game room on the lower level.The location was an excellent launch point for our trips into GSM NP for hiking and it was easy to get into Pigeon Forge for groceries or to eat out. Dollywood was, literally, 5 minutes from the cabin.Our host provided very good information prior to arrival and was in touch with us quickly when we had a question after arriving. I would stay in this property again.

Scenic cabin with plenty of space for the whole family!

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The cabin was lovely and very clean, and there was plenty of space for all of us (4 adults, 1 child, and our dog). We had a small issue with the bathtub, but Teresita was very responsive about getting this issue fixed quickly. We had a great time and will definitely consider future stays at this cabin. Highly recommend!

Family trip to Dollywood

This was our 1st time staying in a cabin, we usually book hotel rooms. This was so much better, being able to be in the kitchen, dining area, porch together as a family. The manager Terisita, (i hope i spelled that correctly), is wonderful, she always gets back to you if you have a question, she is very personable. Kitchen was stocked with everything you could need to cook, i was impressed with that.My father passed away during hurricane Helene, and this was a family get together that we had been planning to do for some time.im thankful that everything went smoothly and was an enjoyable experience.
