We enjoyed our stay so very much!! We loved the location and could take Rich Mtn Road from Cades Cove straight to our cabin when we wanted to. The owners were responsive and so very kind. There is a garage for your vehicle.... no bears getting in our car!!! We would definitely stay here again!!! Thank you so much!

Fantastic cabin. Spotless. Everything we needed and as described. Even had a garage we could use for our 52 year old car (we were in town for an old car gathering). The communication and instructions were perfect. Lots of great birds to watch. Loved every aspect. Highly recommend to anyone.

Peaceful location

This is a nice spot with potential. The home is dated but adequate. There are only 5 towels, no bath mats, bringing extra could be helpful. The living area on the first floor was great. We liked the fire pit but would suggest bringing camping chairs and an outdoor table.

I am sorry that you did not feel like our cabin was better than 3 stars. We always strive to provide our guests with a 5 star stay. We actually leave 20 towels in this cabin. They are in the closets next to the bathrooms as there is no place to put them in the bathrooms themselves, except for the master which has plenty of cabinet space. The bathmats are folded neatly next to the towels in the closet.

Needed some work

The location and general building were awesome, but there were some issues that needed repairs and also it wasn't very clean (despite previous review calling it 'exceptionally' so).

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re so glad you enjoyed the location and the overall space, but we’re truly sorry to hear that some areas did not meet expectations. Cleanliness and maintenance are very important to us, and we would have loved the chance to address these concerns during your stay. Unfortunately, nothing was communicated to us at the time, which is disappointing, as we want every guest to have the best possible experience. Please know we’ll be reviewing these issues with our team right away, and we hope you’ll consider staying with us again so we can provide the five-star visit we strive for.

Very Nice Stay In a Quiet Wooded Location

A large, modern, comfortable, well equipped cabin in a quiet wooded neighborhood. We were there for peak fall colors and had a beautiful display right from the deck. Easy access to nearby GSMNP border trails and a good location for returning easily from the Cades Cove Loop drive if you don't mind take the maintained gravel road for a while. It worked great for us and we enjoyed some world class fall color hiking. Kitchen was well equipped, though I would add a sheet pan myself. Microwave and sink were left uncleaned which seems more like maybe the cleaning staff was just in a bit of a hurry on the way out and missed them because everywhere else the cleaning was of a high standard so no real concerns, just details. We only used the king bed, it is of good quality, firm, and comfortable. Shower was good. Overall we were quite comfortable and would certainly stay again.

Great stay

We were in the area for a celebration of life and loved how close this home was located to Cades Cove. The home was very well kept. The shower space in the two bedrooms (not master) are very small but did the job. The pictures don’t do this property justice as it looks so much nicer in person.

Nice Stay

The cabin was easy to get to. It was exactly as described. Nice and clean. There were plenty of towels, washcloths, and toiletries. Any suggestion would maybe be to take extra pillows. The ones provided really didn't bother me but some people like thicker pillows. Also, some rooms don't have curtains. But again, that didn't bother us either. I didn't worry about anyone looking through the windows. Curtains would only take away the natural beauty of the cabin and the scenery. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

Very relaxing

Wonderful area and people, great to get away into the woods for a quiet stay. The property is very nice, but be careful going downstairs (one of our group had a little slip) and know that the back-side windows don't have any shades, blinds or curtains.

Awesome cabin!

This was the perfect space for six teen girls and two of their moms! It was a great location for hiking (Spruce Flats Falls and Chimney Tops) as well as some shopping and eating in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
