The property was amazing and very accommodating for well mannered dogs. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit and local amenities. The hosts are amazing and very responsive. Definitely one of the best places we have rented in the Knoxville area. We will definitely book again.
Beautiful cabin - wonderful place to stay to get away from it all !

We’re so grateful for your kind words! It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed everything. Your feedback motivates us to keep making each stay special. Looking forward to your return!
They thought of everything to help improve our stay - gates on the porches to keep the dogs and toddlers out of trouble, hampers in the bedrooms for dirty laundry, extra dog bowls/treats/beds, car port to keep vehicles cool in the summer heat, ceiling fans on the porches, and the variety of games available. Our family had a great stay!

Cabin was super clean, well appointed, easy to get to, and near everything yet off the beaten track . Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay again!

My husband and I stayed at Hillside Haven 9/5-9/8 and so enjoyed this beautiful cabin on the hill. Loved the property, the cabin was stocked with everything you would need, very clean and homey. I would definitely stay here again!

Hi Jessica,
We're so happy that we could be the place that you were able to come together and enjoy each other's company. Thank you for your kind words, it was such a pleasure to have you. We look forward to having you the next time you're in town! If there is anything that we can do to make your next stay special, please let us know.
This cabin was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway with family. It was clean, well stocked, and the back yard area was perfect! We used the pool table and fire pit a lot and it was awesome to have firewood right there for us to use. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit!

The property was great and loved that it has a fenced in backyard for our dogs. They loved being able to runaround and play like at home. We would stay there again.

Super clean, all amenities provided, we cooked, enjoyed laughing around fire-pit, a few enjoyed the hot tub. Mostly loved just being together in a cozy cabin not too far from Sevierville or Knoxville. Thank you!!

Great location and property for our family for the weekend. Had really hoped we would've had more free time to enjoy the beautiful firepit area as well as the games on the very large covered front porch, but we spent a great deal of tine in Knoxville as well. This place worked perfect for us to stay overnight though.

It was a pleasure having you as our guest. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We hope your next visit is just around the corner!
This home was perfect for our short visit. Everything that was detailed on the listing was 100% accurate once we arrived. Amazing outdoor fire pit and of course the hot tub was incredible to have available to us. We’ll be back for sure!

Thank you for your wonderful comments. We are delighted to know that everything was to your satisfaction. Your praise is a great motivator for our team!
Just WOW! This is hands down the best vacation rental I have ever stayed in. The hosts really thought of everything, and they were so friendly and helpful. We brought our two dogs, and this place couldn’t have been more dog friendly, the dogs were so happy (which makes us happy)! Seriously just the most wonderful experience, I would stay here again and again!

Your review made our day! Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience. We can't wait to host you and your pups again!
Absolutely beautiful, clean and pet friendly cabin for our family vacation. Home had all the amenities needed, whether staying in for dinner and football or close enough to go out and shopping. The best part was that my fur babies were able to enjoy spending time in the fenced in back yard by the cozy fire pit or on the front porch while we sat in the rocking chairs. Great communication with the host, we will definitely be back!!

We are incredibly grateful for your review. It's always heartwarming to hear such positive feedback, and we hope to continue exceeding your expectations.
The cabin was charming with lots of great extras - a firepit area with lovely lights, a hot tub, a pool table, and essentials already there (k-cups, toilet paper, detergent, etc.). It was perfect for our little dog with a fenced yard and a beautiful park nearby for picturesque walks (Seven Islands State Birdwatching Park). Plus, it was centrally located to Dollywood, Knoxville and Douglas Lake.

Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed all the little extras and that the fenced yard worked well for your pup. Sounds like you made the most of the location too! We’d love to host you again anytime!
We came for spring break and wanted a location close to the attractions but secluded and dog friendly. The cabin was absolutely perfect, the most dog friendly place, clean and had everything you could need. We enjoyed the cat (kids liked feeding it) and even though our dog doesn’t like cats it didn’t cause any issues. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much! I’m so happy the cabin was a perfect fit for your spring break and that it worked well for both your family and your pup. Glad the cat made a little impression too! You’re welcome back anytime!
Perfect place for beautiful getaway with Wife and dogs
5* If you are bringing your dogs! Fenced in Big back yard. The dogs can run free.
5* if you love building a nice fire outside! They provided the firewood!
5* If you need a peaceful stay out in country but still close enough to whatever you might need in town
Some of the best hosts we’ve ever had!!
