There are plenty of amazing hikes at Newfound Gap on the way up such as Andrews Bald and "The Jump Off" and more hikes in the Clingman's Dome area.

The host was great for communication etc. The only thing we were not prepared for the driveway up to the cabin - it should be noted there are 30 steps to climb up to the cabin-it does however have 2 landings.(our pups enjoyed every step - they had a blast climbing up and down them) The driveway is fairly narrow and quite steep-we had never been to the Gatlinburg area before and did not quite expect that-thank goodness there was not snow and we were in a 3/4 ton truck so not exactly compact size for maneuvering the drive and turning around up by cabin. A few boards were rotted out around the steps but nothing that would be of a safety concern. The inside of the cabin was exactly as pictured-overall very nice. It really deserved 5 stars however the driveway/turn around is the only reason I gave it 4 stars. Just be prepared for that-it was very convenient to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge for our stay. The host even allowed us to have our 4 boston terriers which they and us greatly appreciated someone working with us on 4 dogs. Definitely would recommend this for your trip and book a zipline(it was so totally worth it)!!

STAY AWAY FROM THIS RENTAL. Unit was absolutely disgusting and filthy. Supposedly “cleaning crew” was there right before we were. Yeah right. Check out the photos below. Toothpaste in sink, dirty floors, dust everywhere. Hot tub and hot water heater not working. How do you magically clean with no hot water? Host clearly is running a scam here. Don’t waste your hard earned money on this dump. See the pictures and decide for yourself. And to top it all off, AC system is total crap.
Nice toothpaste. Sure looks clean
Just a few bugs
Great HVAC
This is over the dining table. Very clean here .

Relaxing Getaway

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was gorgeous and comfy. The hottub was amazing after walking so much. The drive is step, but we did see the bear family on the way. My only complaints is the book of House Rules has some discrepancies and needs updated to avoid confusion. And I do not feel we should have to do any type of cleaning duties, such as gathering all linens/towels, taking out trash, etc, when I was charged a 120 cleaning fee. That is the purpose of the cleaning company.
