Everything was clean, small issue with getting the fireplace started but they eventually got it started. Great communications with the owner. The only thing to know is that everything is VERY well worn, tears in the couches, chipped balls on the pool table, etc... But it was very spacious with breathtaking views.

Perfect place for our family

Our family of 17, ages 4-70, had a great stay in this cabin. We could spread out over the 4 levels and not be on top of each other. The kids loved all the games. We all loved the hot tub. It was a great location for all that we wanted to do.

Family and Friends Vacation

This property is AMAZING! This is our 3rd time staying here and it never disappoints. From lots of spaces to hang out, breathtaking views, lots of places to sleep, and many options for games and entertainment (nightly poker was on tap for us), we love this cabin. It is convenient to Gatlinburg and grocery stores and restaurants are nearby as well. It is truly a spacious and accommodating getaway

Amazing Family Vacation

We visited with a family of 10 and our stay was amazing. There was enough room for all of us and accommodated all our needs. The views were breath taking and we were still located close to everything we needed. Mario was prompt to respond to all our communications and made our stay very smooth. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful family holiday get away!

We had 14 people stay for the week of Thanksgiving and could not have enjoyed it any more! The cabin was very well appointed and in as good or better condition than others we've rented in the same area. The location was absolutely perfect being very close to downtown Gatlinburg and an extremely easy and pleasantly short drive to Pigeon Forge and great trails in the National Park. I would absolutely rent this precise cabin again on a subsequent visit. Highly recommended.

Liked: Location
The view and layout of the cabin could easily make this a 5-star cabin. However, there are several items that need to be addressed. Among them are:- Downstairs AC would not keep up - it would stay around 73 when set to 68. The host said he would send someone out to address it, but we’re not sure if anyone ever came. The AC never got better.- Water pressure was very low when multiple showers were being used.- Our toilet seat kept coming off.- There is not enough lighting in the kitchen and the outside decks.- There is not enough silverware for a large group.- Parts of the decks are in disrepair and need to be stained.All that said, the view from the decks is one of the best in the Smokies. The sleeping accommodations were great for 12 adults and 7 kids. And there were plenty of places for us to spread out and do our own thing. It did not have one single room for all of us to gather in, but otherwise the layout of the cabin was nice.

The interior was clean but worn. The exterior was not maintained, kudzu taking over, missing downspouts, etc. Communication with host was almost non-existent. Door lock code was not received until an hour after check-in time. One bedroom door knob was not functional, I had to gain access to the room from an exterior porch door then completely remove the door knob to make the door functional. This was messaged to host with no response. Messaged host for wi-fi connection information with no response, had to find the modem to connect. Service was slow. No check-out instructions given. Messaged host asking about that with no response.

60th Birthday Family Trip

We stayed here August 2024 for a family trip to celebrate a 60th birthday. The house was amazing. The pool table and arcade machine kept the whole family entertained. The pictures honestly do not do the views justice! From every single balcony the view was amazing!!! The hill driving up to the cottage is quite steep and a little nerve wracking so be extra cautious especially at night.

Beautiful views in this cabin that comfortably slept our group of 16. Great kitchen for making dinner for a large group. Hot tub and pool table were a hit. Just sitting in the numerous rocking chairs and looking at the mountains was amazing. A large table included everyone. Steep driveway up. Manager was helpful.

Beautiful Views

The view is breath taking. If I had to do it all over again, I would pick this cabin again. I would buy enough supplies and just stay in the cabin for the entire time enjoying nature and family. There is plenty of space to have time alone with a book, eat a family meal together, or sit with the grandbabies on one of the huge decks. It needs some extra care and updates, but it was an amazing memorable time for my family. We would definitely go back. #beautifulviews

Family Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our 1week stay in Gatlinburg at this wonderful cabin with magnificent Mountain View’s. Plenty of rooms and bathrooms for privacy especially with large families. The grands enjoyed the game room and others lived the outdoor hot tub. Host was very attentive with few minor issues and quickly addressed any concerns. Very well stocked with dishes, utensils, linens and towels. Minimal pots and pans especially for guests planning to prepare large meals. Definitely would have donated a rice cooker had I brought one as Cajuns like their rice and gravy as well as gumbos and stews lol! Will definitely recommend this property to family and friends and plan to stay again.
