Great place to stay just outside of Gatlinburg

Gem in the Glades was a great place for our group of seven friends. Easy access to hiking trails in the Great Smoky MountainMountains National Park. The rental unit is very clean with a well-equipped kitchen, and a wonderful covered porch and hottub.

Perfect location

The cabin was very clean! Great instructions posted for instructions! We loved where we were, nestled in with some Mountain View’s off the deck and in the master suite and close to grocery store, gas station, and places to eat! Easy drive to downtown, trolley stop, and out to the national park. Our kids loved playing ping pong, the little arcade and relaxing in the hot tub! Plenty of kitchen dining for us all too!

Great stay in Gatlinburg

Gorgeous cabin!

We loved the location of this property. Quiet and secluded with a beautiful view of the mountains from the huge porch. Super clean, an awesome lower level, and plenty of space. My only (tiny) complaint was the limited number of throw blankets for cold mornings and evenings and no measuring cups that we could find (we cook most meals on vacations). Loved the proximity to so many cute shops that weren’t in the middle of Gatlinburg’s busy downtown. Great stay!

Glades Getaway

We stayed in the cabin for 4 nights, took my teenaged daughter and her friend. The cabin is set up nicely, plenty of room, and the wrap around deck is awesome. Beds were comfy, and the place was clean. We love the location the cabin is in because you can avoid all the big traffic in Gatlinburg. Only drawback is the driveway, it’s very steep and pulling out onto the main road can be tricky.

Positives and negtives

The entire room was spacious and could use a bit more cleaning. Under the couch was dirt and dust. The Internet was excellent. Negatives- the added cost of 750.00 and 250.00. Didn't know it would be more than half of the cost of the house. The stairs they are a triping hazard, rickety, and banter hanstire was sticky. The poach was Filthy. There was mousepoop under the swing, and the chair pads were very dirty and dusty. The swing. Cobwebs all over the porch area.

This cabin fit all our needs. It was a great location from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. It had all the amenities we needed. The driveway is the only downfall. It is super steep and twisty! Other than that it was great!

Why they chose this property

Gem in the Glades is close to all of the area attractions, yet it is in a private setting as well. It also has a great view! A rare combination where most cabins are lined up next to each other.

What makes this property unique

Great game room and wrap around deck, partly screened in. Just a unique property
