Everything was GREAT! When i had a queation, I texted the mgmt and they responded so quick. The pool was clean and ready to use. The deck was perfect for sitting in the evening. Very easy to get to all the excitement in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Would definitely book again.
Beautiful place to stay. Super clean. Close to town. Pool and hot tub were clean and warm. Would return for sure.

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Pictures did not include the big green water tower that was our view from our deck—-it was right in front of our deck. Pool had rust in it. Pool rail going down steps is loose. No privacy by hot tub.

Response from VrboOwner on Mar 27, 2026
If you review the photos the water tower is in fact in 3 or 4 of the photos. Although we do not specifically showcase the tower. There are trees growing that will eventually block this out completely and it is already less visible in the summer when the trees have leaves. The hot tub is also exactly as shown in the photos. A slight positioning of chairs to the right would avoid this view entirely and look towards downtown as shown in our photos. We will inspect the pool for rust and any thing deteriorating will be replaced. As all components are stainless steel we expect this discoloration to bue due to mineral deposits from the water source and not actual rust.
Everything was very clean. Very cozy. The bed was very comfortable. Instructions were clear. Location was very good. Close enough to downtown for access but for enough away for peace and quiet. We got see bears at the edge of the development. That was plus for us. We enjoyed pool and hot tub every day. We would definitely recommend.

My wife and I took a long weekend after a very busy holiday and had the greatest time at Best Kept Secret. The pool was amazing, the hot tub was perfect and the cabin was beautiful. Location was key as it isnt far from anything that you want to do. we even had an issue with the projector TV in the pool room and they came out and resolved the issue the very next morning. We loved every minute of it and will be back for sure. And I was able to get high score on several of the video games on the iGame machine.
So glad you had a 5 star experience. Come back and stay again soon!

This cabin was so clean and nice. The bed was very comfortable also which is very important to us. My husband loved the dual head shower. The hot tub was absolutely amazing and now we have to get one. Any time we had a question, we received immediate responses. Would absolutely stay here again.
They cabin was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Gatlinburg is just over 2 miles from it. Very nice place to stay.

First time ever renting a cabin...we already know we are going back, to this exact same one! Can't imagine another being as perfect as this one for us. We wanted a pool, check! We wanted to see bears, check. We wanted relaxation, check. What more could we ask!!
Great cabin close to the Gatlinburg strip, but still feels like your in the mountains away from it all.
Only bad thing I can come up with about this place is the Pool was a little too cold to get in but it was mid October

Our experience at Best Kept Secret was easy from start to finish. We had all of the information we needed, when we needed it, and the app was wonderful! Access to discounts was another plus. The pool was a bit colder than expected, but we still enjoyed it none the less. Do beware of bears, though - we saw many and they came close. Just follow the warnings provided by the management and it will all be great!
I come to Tennessee often with my family and this was the first time I booked a 1 bedroom. love this cabin, went for a romantic getaway and the pictures were exactly on point. Very clean and organized and to top it off they offered free tickets.
