Great cabin, great location!

We really enjoyed the cabin! Everything was great - the location, the neighborhood, the deck with the hot tub, and access to the pool just a short walk away. We've stayed at a few different places around Gatlinburg over the past five years, but this was by far our favorite!

Loved this lil place. Nice, quiet and cozy spot to decompress. The fireplace didn't work for us during our stay but the host was made aware and responded quickly. The cabin is equipped with basic necessities and the hot tub is a great feature. We definitely would stay here again. 5 days did not seem long enough!

Very convenient place to stay for soccer tournaments

Our stay was very pleasant. The house is extremely clean. Very close (within 5 min.)to Rocky Top Sports World. Doesn’t take long to get to the cabin from main road, so not having to drive all the way up a mountain was a plus! The bedroom downstairs is only a full and not very comfortable. The upstairs bed was way better and bigger. Perfect for up to 4 people.
