Roads were dangerous to the cabin. When we got to roads that could only be traveled by 1 car with blind tops, we realized it was unsafe to continue travel to the cabin. The description of the cabin lacks accuracy in the travel conditions to reach the destination.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize that the travel conditions to the cabin were not as expected. We understand how important accurate property descriptions are when planning a trip. However, upon review, we show communication was made with our 24/7 guest Services Team and our Management Team, regarding the condition of the road, and our local Operations Team was notified, and they advised the road is in good condition and accessible by a 4x4 vehicle. This information is also listed in the My Rental section of the guest portal, which is sent to all guests 14 days prior to arrival. Your input is invaluable as this helps us enhance transparency and provide a better guest experience. We appreciate your feedback, and we hope you will provide us with the opportunity to welcome you back under more favorable circumstances.- Your Jackson Mountain Team

It was great

It scary at night because of the forest that’s right in front, but besides that it’s really good to stay at. Had an amazing time, and it was equipped with all the stuff we needed. It was very high up, but we did get to se snow because of that.

comfortable

The place was very clean and peaceful, the hot tub was great after hikes. BUT, the drive up the mountain to the place was steep and long so we would plan only one trip down a day and never in the dark.

Great Adventure

All the comforts of home with the luxury of a hotel. Beautiful view. Very top of the smokies. It's truly an adventure. Owners are quick to respond. Everything from check out to check in was easy and seamless. Drive up and down the mountain was the trickiest part. Highly recommend.

The layout of the cabin was perfect with a spectacular view. We did see bears on two different occasions. It does need a little updating (living area furniture is old and hard to get up from) and there were no potholders or kitchen towels in the kitchen. The mountain road going to the cabin is really scary in several different places. Given all this I really feel the cabin was somewhat overpriced. I don’t see myself staying there again. We vacated the cabin two days early because of the stress of driving to it.

Smoky Mountain cabin

The rental was everything described in the listing. We love the our place, very roomy, comfortable, hot tub was great and the view was awesome. The kitchen had most of the essentials but needs scissors. The drive up to the cabin was challenging with many curves and steep hills but drive slow and be very cautious. Other than the drive the cabin was very warm and inviting.

Great little cabin

The house was adorable. The drive up the mountain was VERY steep. Not for people who are scared of heights! But what a view. Everything was extremely clean and fresh. My only complaint is that the fireplace did not work correctly.

Wonderful cabin—hard to find.

Clean, nice, well taken care of, well stocked with necessities. Got there at night in the rain and couldn’t find it. Had to go back down the mountain and get a hotel room for two nights. Other than that it was terrific.

Spring Break 2025

Everything was great. My only complaints are nit-picking. If you are not from the mountains, know that the roads to get to the cabin are terrifying. The cabin itself is a bit dated and the dishwasher is obnoxiously loud but nothing that lowers a rating. The fireplace should come with directions. Otherwise an amazing view, comfortable beds, and a truly remarkable vacation.

A little touch up

Two of the eyes on the stove didn’t work and needs a bigger hot water heater because you can only fill one tub up before it’s no more hot water to use

ok cabin

The cabin needs to have a grill that can be moved. It rained a couple of days and the grill there can not be moved and is not big enough to cook more than a couple of burgers. A broom! The leaves at this time of the year are falling and kept being tracked in. No broom to sweep the front porch or deck off.

Jennifer, thank you for taking the time to write a review for your stay at Above and Beyond. We are sorry if the location of the grill inconvenienced you. The grills are mounted in the ground in the specific locations due to HOA rules and fire and safety regulations. We have since gotten with our maintenance team and a broom has been placed in the unit.Thank you for letting us know how we can improve the Jackson Mountain Homes experience for all our guests. Don’t forget that next time you stay with us, you will receive a 10% return customer discount that can also be used in our other locations such as: Hilton Head, Florida, New Mexico, and Hawaii.
