Very clean and Just right for a family of 4. Great kitchen and amenities.The garage doors in front do not offer much privacy and the parking is at a 10 degree slope, so a hassle getting in and out of your vehicle. Setting comfort in the main area needs to improve if you’re looking to watch movies as a family… Great communication with management and checkin and out a breeze!

The cabin was clean and in good condition. The only down fall was that you could not unpack the clothes. There was no drawers for clothes and the closet had no shelf and the rod was too close wall to hang clothes. It you don’t mind living out of your suitcase from the floor it works.

Cute modern cabin. I would say the pool is small and the balcony and view is facing the front. Small gas grill. Also on the front. Had a lot of stink bugs that come through the garage cracks and in the windows. Definitely needs nee sheets and towels. Other than that, decent cabin. Would recommend for couple and their kids. Bigger tv.

Overall a nice stay. Had trouble with pool heat the first few days. Customer service was responsive but told me on my last call that my body was just going to have to adjust to the cold water. Maintenance did eventually fix heater. Several utensils were put away dirty also and overall it needs a deep clean.

This is a perfect little cabin for 2 couples, not great for little kids. It was very clean and it is a good location for visiting both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, about one very curvy mile from main parkway. The pool is very small, but enjoyable. Improvements: There was no kitchen table, just bar seating. They were very skimpy on the concrete drive, it could be wider. Highlight: You may see bears, so be aware coming and going and don't feed them or leave food out.

The home was beautiful! Very modern and clean. Loved the huge kitchen, pool (albeit small), and hot tub. It was within 15 minutes of all the activity in town. My only complaint, which can’t be blamed on Elk Springs, was the LOUD noise coming from construction trucks passing by the home every 15 minutes for the entire day. Not a deal-breaker but just an annoyance. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would gladly stay again.

So on arrival to our rental property I was unloading the car and much to my surprise I walked out the door and I noticed a bear about 10 feet from me digging in the dirt I retreated back inside and he disappeared. The rental was nice especially the hot tub and pool area, it was a nice place and multiple encounters with the bears were unusual for us but kinda like a safari trip lol and we enjoyed ourselves. The only negative comment is that the driveway is at such an incline that it’s hard to walk up to the house as well as those few stepping stones in front the driveway should be a solid pad with a walkway poured concrete.

Thank you for sharing your unique and adventurous experience! Its not every day you get a surprise bear sighting just steps from your door—definitely adds a wild twist to the stay!

This “cabin” was in a great location. Convenient to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg with beautiful views. The area is very quiet. We loved that it had both a pool and hot tub. The cabin still smells new and was nicely decorated. It’s very modern. All the windows made for a nice view, but may have contributed to it getting warmer than we liked in the cabin. The air never seemed to really cool it off, which made it slightly uncomfortable to sleep the last night. You could tell the builder rushed or doesn’t take pride in their work, with some of the quality of work. That made me feel bad for the owners.

While the house was very clean inside and beautiful. There was a “miscommunication “ about the pool. I even spoke to a person over the phone and then was sent a how to use guide for the pool. Upon arrival the pool was unusable. I was informed it was out of season. This was never expressed to me and why send me a how to use the safety measures if I can’t even get in it because it is “ out of season “. Although several other outdoor pools were open in the area. I paid for an amenity I could not use. While also being led to believe it was available. It’s been a week.. I’m still waiting on them to contact me about my complaint.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We are very glad to hear you found the home clean and beautiful, but we are truly sorry for the miscommunication regarding the pool. We understand how disappointing it must have been to expect a key amenity and find it unavailable, especially after receiving instructions on how to use it. Your frustration is completely valid, and we most certainly apologize for the lack of clarity and delay in follow-up. Your concerns will be shared with our team to help prevent this from happening in the future. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an even better experience next time!
