We found the pot of gold at the end of rainbow! Seriously, this is the best cabin we've stayed in. Our only regret is not staying a full week, which we are already planning for next spring or summer. The Strom's have a beautiful cabin with very nice furnishings and all the extras. Excellent location, far enough off the Parkway but close to dining, outlet stores and grocery shopping. Use Teaster Dr instead of the Parkway, takes you to cabin without all the traffic. Our favorite eating places are the Old Mill Restaurant (check out their general store too) and Calhoun's (they have the best burgers)!! Thanks again for sharing your cabin!! I would recommend to anyone wanting a nice, clean cabin in a great location.

Absolutely Amazing!!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at havens rest! It was just as clean and even more beautiful than it looked in the pictures. Our family of 8 were more than comfortable and had plenty of room. It was surprisingly convenient to everything including Dollywood and Splash Country. We could even see the smoke from the train at Dollywood from the back decks. The kids enjoyed Mrs. Packman as well as the indoor and outdoor pools and there was a great selection of movies and family games to choose from. Our vacation at Haven's Rest was one of the best ever. We highly recommend Haven's Rest to anyone looking to vacation in the area. Thanks so much Bill and Karen for sharing you beautiful home with us! The Vaughn's

The cabin was absolutely beautiful! We really liked the location and it was very close to Dollywood which is what we wanted. Great cabin for a getaway for a couple. And, for older kids, the foosball table is a huge hit. Our daughter (and my husband) wanted to play it all the time. This was the last thing we did before departing -- play each other in foosball. Thanks again for letting us use your cabin.

We enjoyed staying at your cabin. It was just righ tfor us. Location was perfect too! Guys liked the golf course access. We did encounter a bit of rough weather that caused a few leaks, but hey, the owners made it right and we would deffinetely recommend staying there. The owner was good to talk to us during the stay and work out any kinks! Only 1 suggestion...2nd source of air conditioning is needed upstairs. Thanks for a great experience.

Visit this area twice a year and this cabin has proven to be one of the best stays yet. Located right in the middle of all attractions we wanted to visit. Cabin was everything described and more. You can tell owner takes pride in what he has to offer. Cabin has everything you need for a wonderful stay. Owners prompt and helpful with all questions. We have found a home away from home. We will glad to visit again. GREAT cabin, GREAT location and GREAT price, what more could you ask for. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

This was our first time staying in a cabin but it definitely will not be the last. The cabin was even more beautiful that the pictures on the internet. The minute we walked in the door the first thing we thought was "WOW". The location of the cabin makes it so convenient - it is so close to the main parkway - yet far enough away from the traffic and noise. We were able to sit on the upstairs balcony and see the steam from the train at Dollywood. The cabin has so many of the things that make it easy to just stay there and relax. The Pacman Machine, Foosball table, hot tub, Play Station Game, Drink Machine and Candy machine...also the movies, cd's, books and magazines...were some of the things that we enjoyed using while we were there. The owners provided so many of the little things that make such a big difference - such as toilet tissue, paper towels, soap, dishwashing and dishwasher detergent. A fully equipped kitchen with all utensils, dishes, small appliances, and so much more. The master bedroom has the most beautiful log furniture and we used all three of the pull-out beds also. The cabin was beautifully decorated and was as clean as any hotel or resort we have ever stayed in. It was a pleasure dealing with the Strom family and we hope to be able to stay there during our next visit to the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area.

Loved our stay in the cabin - prefectly located, close to everything without the hassle of trying to get in or out of - parking was easy, on flat surface Was a little noisy when a big group checked into the unit next door, as they seemed to like slamming doors

Haven's Rest is a very nice cabin to spend your vacation. The cabin felt very welcoming and was decorated nicely. The master bedroom is beautiful and the loft is decorated nicely. Lots of neat things about this cabin to enjoy. Bill and Karen are very nice and easy to deal with. Thanks for a nice weekend.

I stayed at this cabin at the end of August 2009 with my six year old grandchild. As soon as we walked in the door, I knew we were going to love our stay here. The cabin was decorated beautifully. My grandchild loved playing the PACMAN game upstairs and the gumball machine. She also thought it was neat to have a coke machine in the dining room. The king size log bed upstairs was very comfortable and beautiful. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will return again.

The cabin was not only cozy but is in a great location. It's away from the busy large crowds but is within driving distance to local attractions. since we went at Christmas time the towns were decorated for the season.

The Strom's cabin is ideally located....close to Parkway(main drag).No steep mtn. road to navigate for us over 60. The amenities were wonderful! If you like a master bedroom upstairs away from the kids, go for it. And it's clean, too!

The Strom's cabin is extremely clean, fresh, beautifully decorated and well thought out. Everything needed for an extended stay is provided. The cabin is well situated within the city limits of Pigeon Forge, easily accessable even if you drive a Corvette (no steep inclines or dirt streets). The cabin is walking distance from DollyWood.(a big plus if you plan to visit)and close to all other attractions, restaurants and shopping. If you are looking for a great mountain retreat, this is the place. Don & Janice Mason
