Perfect location if you are going to the National Park, Dollywood or just around the area.VERY quiet area, we normally bring a sound machine and did not need it.Great sized cabin for our family. Would stay here again.Kids loved the swing on the porch.
Lots of wildlife, we saw Turkeys, bats, and even a momma bear and her cub driving out to the main road.
Perfect spot for coffee

The beautiful newer cabin was nestled in the hillside. Furnishings were cute and functional. The 2 recliners were treasured. The bed and shower was perfect. All the appliances were easy to use. (Suggestion oven/stove use the lower settings or shorten the time in oven . Cooks hot). Little challenging to turn large truck around at top, but mastered. Close to the Smokies. Suggest to write down address. Lose GPS while climbing mountain. Easy space for 4 people to stay (we were just 2). Front porch quite and gorgeous woody view. Definitely will be back!

New cabin beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean, well stocked kitchen, comfortable furnishings, on doorstep of Smoky Mountain National Park. Owner responded to texts promptly and would certainly stay here again if in the area. It is a very beautiful, woodsy, hilly setting. Highly recommend visiting the nearby Tuckaleechee Caverns.

Could not recommend this cabin more. Everything is so clean, well setup and stocked, and very comfortable. The sheets, towels, bedding, etc. just felt nice. The shower and bathrooms were perfectly setup for ease of use. Would absolutely stay here again. Perfect visit.

Excellent communication and responsive host. Beautiful new cabin in the woods but close drive to Townsend and park. Very well furnished, well equipped, and quality craftsmanship (such as dressers and rough hewn lumber). We have stayed at 50 places and this one ranks among the best.
