The cabin is amazing. It was perfect for our family. There were a handful of things that could have made it better. The hot tub smells like mildew and sticks on whoever gets in. It is pretty bad. It had a few lights out in the bathroom. And the gas fire pit did not operate properly. (Yes there was a full tank of gas in it.) even with those minor issues, I would 100 percent stay here again. In fact I’m trying to figure out a date I can come back again very soon. The property is very clean. They stocked it with a few bottles of water and some snacks. The ride up to the cabin took some getting used to but by the end of the trip I really enjoyed even that. You really couldn’t ask for a better location, and the views! Amazing. Book this cabin. You won’t be disappointed.

Everything was great. Lots of privacy, wonderful views and a relaxing atmosphere. The pictures online are good but when you get there, its even better! The drive to the cabin is steep but exciting. Listen to the owners directions and everything will be good. Waking up to the mountains in the clouds was the best. We highly recommend working with Cathy.

This was by far one of the best homes we have ever stayed in. Everything was exactly as described in the literature and any concerns we had were addressed immediately. The pictures don’t do it justice. The views are breathtaking and the area is tranquil and quiet. The steep mountain roads just add to the adventure but they are paved and well kept.

Beautiful mountain views and easy to get to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Cades Cove. Going up the mountain the first time is a bit nerve racking but gets easier. Had a great time with the family even though our weather was a bit cooler and wet than we had hoped for.
