This id just a beautiful property inside and out. It is spacious and has very comfortable furniture. The ADA access was very important us and it was great. The creek added so much to the already beautiful outdoor ambiance. The location is outside the highest traffic areas and is very close to the Sugarland visitor and park entrance. We loved everything anout it!

Mountain retreat

The cabin is very spacious with large rooms. The beds are clean and cozy. The porch is a wrap around and the windows are huge - great for viewing the wildlife (we saw black bears and turkey). The stream is beautiful and we spent a lot of time exploring and playing around it. Great place for our family vacation. Excellent location, snuggled between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.

Large home beautiful property

We celebrated my mother Inlaws 60th birthday with 6 adults and 4 kids. There was plenty of space for everyone. A very homey feel in the cabin. We loved that the porch wraps completely around the home and if you crack the window at night you can hear the beautiful creak.

Surprise Turkey Visit

Nice place, good location, room enough for our family event. It was cold so we didn't spend much time outside, but the space was lovely. Hot tub was hot. We got a surprise visit from a gaggle (?) of turkeys travelling through the property.

Overall is good

Nice property, stayed there with 3 families, 6 persons in total. Overall impression 4 out of 5: lack of amenities on the cabin for kids (just hot tub outside), no trails close to the house - have to drive through all garlinburg traffic for 10-20 mins. The remaining is fine: clean, enough space to sleep.

Birthday girls weekend

We had family from out of state come for 3 nights 4 days in Gatlinburg. The cabin was awesome with exception of no keurig ,spa too small and no real amenities( salt/ pepper, blow dryer, lack of towels, and no big no spa towels, etc) . It is extremely outdated like the 70ā€™s - needs update- however very clean and big! Only issue was the bridge upon entrance not real setup for a long bed truck - one tree needs to be cut it is a hazard. Plus need more address signage.

Good but not great

Don't get me wrong we had a great time and you can't beat the location but the cabin was missing some things we'd expect to have from staying at other rentals. Such as, hand towels (we had plenty of wash clothes and towels), any kind of cooking spices or at least salt and pepper, child friendly cups and plates. We also felt the pictures and description of "on 3 acres" was a bit miss leading. Only a small portion of the property is usable. We loved the area and attractions but would probably stay some where else next time.

Perfect spot!

We rented this house for our spring break. It was perfect for my two girls (12 and 10) and my MIL. The girls enjoyed the hot tub and it was nice that everyone had their own room to relax in. We ended up cooking in most nights because everyone was tired from playing all day. It was quiet and secluded but easy to get to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge when we had activities.
