Great Experience! The cabin was wonderful. Secluded with only 1 other cabin close (which is what we like). The cabin itself had everything we needed. The pool/spa was Amazing! The kids had a blast. Love that it was dog friendly and had a walkway for easy access to let the pup out. Excellent communication. Host was quick to respond to all our needs. The location was close to the parkway. Very convenient. The only negative was the driveway is very steep.

The cabin was beautiful, had everything we needed. Everyone had something to entertain them from the pool, video games and wonderful views to relax and enjoy. The road up to the cabin was steep but well worth it when you got up to the cabin. We had a wonderful morning visit from a mom and 2 cubs. We were able to stand on top porch and watch them on the ground under us for almost an hour. It was great! Loved this cabin. Everything was as they said!

It’s great to know everyone found something to enjoy, from the pool and video games to the beautiful views. The drive up is definitely part of the mountain experience, and we’re so glad you felt it was worth it once you arrived. What an incredible treat to safely watch a mom and her cubs from the porch — such a special Smoky Mountain memory! Thank you again for choosing Moonrise Vacation Properties.

The stay was amazing. All of the amenities were exactly as advertised. The hot tub was interesting. It was lukewarm on the first night, pretty cold on the second night and extremely warm and the perfect temperature on the third night. Loved the cabin overall, be mindful that the driveway is very steep entering the cabin.

Thank you so much for the great review—we’re so glad you had an amazing stay and that everything matched what you were expecting! We really appreciate you calling out the hot tub experience. That’s definitely not the consistency we aim for, and we’ll be checking on it to make sure it’s dialed in and ready to go for future guests. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. And yes—the driveway can be a bit of an adventure! It’s part of that tucked-away mountain feel, but we always recommend taking it slow, especially on arrival. We’d love to host you again anytime!

This is a great property that feels very private. It is not close to the action but the drive is easy. No crazy mountain roads! Having the game room and indoor pool was a game changer! We would definitely bring our kids and grandkids here. My only complaint is even after Mike trying to help me, we could not get our phones onto their WiFi and service was spotty without it. Another improvement would be to leave out a way to clean bugs out of the pool. We had five centipedes in the bottom of the pool by the time we left which made it hard to enjoy.

Thank you so much for the wonderful 10/10 review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the private setting, easy drive, game room, and indoor pool. It makes us happy to hear the home would be a great fit for your kids and grandkids on a future trip. We also appreciate the helpful feedback. We’re sorry the WiFi connection gave you trouble, even with Mike trying to assist, and we’ll take another look to make sure guests are able to connect as easily as possible. We’ll also be adding a simple way for guests to skim the pool if needed, as bugs can occasionally find their way in despite regular maintenance. Thank you again for staying with Moonrise Vacation Properties — we’d love to host you and your family again!

Thank you so much for the kind review! We’re so glad you found the cabin clean, well stocked, and equipped with everything you needed — that’s exactly the experience we aim to provide. For future guests, we do want to clarify that the indoor spa heats to a maximum of 100°F, as noted in the listing. It operates on a timed heating system (similar to many hotel spas) and must be activated in advance to reach full temperature. We also include a step-by-step video in our digital guidebook that walks through how to turn on the heating cycle. We truly appreciate you staying with us and would love to host you again!
