Listen to the river while staying within the city limits of Gatlinburg, while also being secluded

This cabin was the perfect location, size, and layout for our family of 3 adults and 2 kids. The only downfall is that it was filthy. The pictures are very deceiving. The porches were completely unusable due to the mold and yuck built up on the porch, swings, chairs, and even ceiling fans. The floors inside the cabin didn’t even appear to have been swept before we got there and mopping didn’t seem to have been done in possibly months. There was something sticky all over the kitchen counter which clearly says it wasn’t properly cleaned before our arrival. There was all kinds of garbage under the sinks in the bathrooms. The jets in the upstairs tub had visible mold making it unusable. The grout just pure black on the floor in the bathroom from not being cleaned. The beds had clean sheets and there were clean towels. There were not enough towels. We had to wash towels the first night. There was only one very large washcloth in the kitchen with nothing to wash dishes and no hand towels. There was a pool table that was also not usable bc of the dust buildup. This place would be perfect if it was clean. We were mostly sleeping there so I didn’t even bother with having people come back and forth cleaning interrupting our trip. I would not book this rental again but the rental company was very nice upon arrival.

Fell in love right away! Very hard to leave!

Cute cabin in a great location and a really nice layout for a family. Beds and seating areas were all very comfortable. If you plan to use the kitchen, be aware the pans and cooking utensils are limited and the grill is like the kind you find at a campsite. The downstairs bathroom sometimes gave off what smelled like fumes from the septic tank which I'm sure can be resolved with some maintenance.

We loved the cabin! Overall the place you are staying is nice and comfortable. Beds were comfy. It must have had a good cleaning, as we did not experience the concerns listed a couple of months prior to our stay. On the way in, some of the places around the cabin look abandoned and it is a good idea to find it for the first time during the day.

However, the outside of this cabin is well kept. The location is central and easy to get surrounding activities. We had a bear visit the morning we were leaving, that was really neat to see a cub right in our yard!

This is a beautiful cabin, but it needs a really good deep cleaning. Upon arrival, we noticed a significant amount of mold in the upstairs bathroom. The management company sent a housekeeping person to clean it. Within 2 days more mold was growing. The pitch of the shower does not allow for proper drainage. The ventilation wasn't great either. The management company sent someone to clean it again. Over the next couple of days we noticed that the ceiling fans and standing fans were thick with dust. The windowsills, fake plants/flowers, and other surfaces were also filled with dust. There was also toothpaste splatter on the walls in front of the bathroom sinks when we got there. The knob on the toaster was sticky and grimy. The sink drains and around the movable spout in the kitchen sink has mold around it. On the second return to the cabin, the housekeeper also cleaned the standing fans.

Renters should also know that we heard the traffic from the Parkway and not the river.

Its location is not a simple walk to the Trolley station. There are no sidewalls and the roads are narrow with overgrown foliage.

With a good dusting and deep cleaning, with continued maintenance and attention to detail (when it comes to cleaning), this cabin would be really nice. The decor is great and it has what anyone would need for a nice stay.
