The cabin was ok the upstairs bedroom doesn’t have a bathroom and the pool table downstairs really don’t have enough room to shoot and there wasn’t any mixing bowls in the kitchen some of screen on the porch was torn off.

Thank you for your feedback, Laura! We’re sorry to hear that some aspects of your stay didn’t meet your expectations. The bathroom locations are outlined in our listing, but we understand that layout may not be ideal for everyone. We also appreciate you bringing the missing mixing bowls to our attention and wish we'd known during your stay so we could have replaced them immediately. As for the porch screens, our cabin is surrounded by beautiful Smoky Mountain wildlife, including some curious bears who occasionally investigate the screened porch! We've replaced the screens several times, but keeping up with our furry neighbors can sometimes be a challenge. We take great pride in our cabin and always encourage guests to reach out during their stay so we can quickly address any concerns. We appreciate your feedback!

We loved this place and would highly recommend it! It’s a gorgeous drive up the mountain to get there and an all around great property. No need to drive out to Cades Cove to see the wildlife. The wildlife will come to you.

You will be so happy that you booked this cabin! It is even better than the photos and the photos are awesome! The details throughout the cabin are so impressive and don't forget to read the story behind the cabin and the fire in 2016. It is a great story of faith. We had 5 adults and 2 kiddos and we felt very comfortable in this cabin. We felt right at home and Stacey is one of the best hostesses we have had in our travels and we travel a lot.

The location of this cute little cabin was perfect! And the house was perfect for our 8, 9 and 13 year old kids! There was so many games, a movie room, a hot tub, and lots of space to spread out! The cabin was so beautiful and well-stocked, as well as a great location to do all of the things in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Mustard Seed Mountain LLC

Host profile image
Several years ago I visited Tennessee for the first time while on a business trip and when I left it felt like I was leaving home. The following summer my family and I visited Gatlinburg and fell in love with the Smoky Mountains. We fell in love with Treehouse Lodge and the story behind it. I am honored to host you at Treehouse Lodge and I hope you will love the handcrafted charm as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

The location of this property is FANTASTIC! Located within the national park, the cabin sits in a bit of a valley and is close to everything the area has to offer, just 8 mins to downtown Gatlinburg, close to tons of hiking trails/outdoor activites and only about 15 mins to Pigeon Forge!

What makes this property unique

Treehouse Lodge has an amazing and inspiring story. The original cabin was lost in the Gatlinburg fires of 2016. The family that lived there at the time completely rebuilt this cabin from the ground up, lovingly adding hand crafted details such as real log steps, hand made cabinets, etc. You can read the full story in the guest book at the cabin.
