Nice place for a mountain getaway! We enjoyed the quiet time, hot tub, and how pet-friendly this cabin was! Also liked the fact that it was very close to the parkway, yet out far enough to enjoy nature. The beds were very comfortable as well. Management did a great job with communication and super easy check-in.

We had a fantastic stay at Sweet Caroline! It was secluded enough to feel like we were getting away to the mountains, yet only a 15 minute drive to the attractions and places we wanted to visit! It had everything we needed to relax and unwind, like the hot tub, chairs on the deck, washer and dryer, tvs, and a stocked kitchen. Check-in was super easy and communication was excellent. The house was clean and neat. We loved our time there!

Nice Hillside Cabin.

Nice, small, clean cabin. Very secluded on the side of a hill. Felt crowded with 5 adults and the dog. Would rent again as a weekend get away for myself, my wife and our dog. Liked the lo-cal to Gburg by-pass. ;)

Hello Sean, It's a bit of disappointing to get a four star rating since you brought an unauthorize guest knowing that the property can only accommodate four. With 5 adults and a dog, it is understandable that things might get a bit crowded. With so many cabin to choose from, next time I hope you find one that fits your needs.

**Absolutely Perfect Cabin Getaway!**Our stay in this Pigeon Forge cabin was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, cozy, and beautifully decorated — exactly like the pictures (if not better!). The cabin had that perfect balance of rustic charm and modern comfort, with a fully stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and a relaxing hot tub overlooking the mountains.We loved sitting on the porch each morning with coffee while watching the sunrise and ending our evenings by the fireplace after exploring the Smoky Mountains and downtown Pigeon Forge — which were just a short drive away.The hosts were incredibly friendly and responsive, making check-in and checkout a breeze. Every detail was thought of, from extra towels to local guidebooks and even small touches that made us feel right at home.We can’t recommend this cabin enough — it’s the perfect spot for a romantic getaway or a peaceful family retreat. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we visit the Smokies!

Hello and thank you for taking the time to review . After chatting with you, I totally get why you were frustrated. It’s super frustrating when you’re lost and can’t find your way to the cabin. I’m glad we could help you out After chatting with you, I totally get why you were frustrated. It’s frustrating when you’re lost and can’t find your way to the cabin. But hey, I’m super proud of our team! They were awesome and helped you find our place. away, but in all fairness, it’s a bit harsh to give such rating due to the fact that you also went to the wrong cabin. I get that you weren’t expecting it to be so secluded however, we do mention it on our listing. Next time, I hope you find a cabin that fits you best and take your time to read the description carefully before booking.
