We're so excited you enjoyed being next door to Dollywood, Douglas! We love that our cabin is under half a mile away, so the park is practically your backyard. We hope to have you again soon! – Steve & Simona
Great spot, very clean and safe! Only 2 mins from Dollywood:)

Ashleigh, thank you! Clean, safe and just two minutes from Dollywood. That's the Around the Bend promise, and we're so glad you felt right at home in Pigeon Forge. Thanks for being such a great guest! – Steve & Simona
The house was nice, however a couple minor turn offs. The game cabinet was a disaster, we cleaned and organized it. There were no nightlights and the first floor is VERY dark at night, we stubbed our toes trying to navigate in the middle of the night so we had to go out and buy night lights. The night stand had some sticky substance on it that I had to clean up. The listing says towels and linens are provided which is wonderful, however there were not enough towels for showers AND the hot tub use for all of our 9 guests so we had to wash towels. Would have been nice to have separate hot tub towels. It was awesome to have paper products, trash bags, coffee & creamer provided and check out was super simple; did not have to clean everything and strip beds so that was a treat! Overall a nice place to stay with just a couple tweaks.

Great stay for families visiting Dollywood. Steven was very responsive, answering our questions in a short time. Overall, I would recommend this property!
Absolutely beautiful, our hosts were so attentive, text me back within minutes. My grandkids were in heaven with hot tub, game room and fire pit. We would definitely recommend this property for a great vacation.
Our host, Steven, was exceptional in communicating and accommodating an early check-in. The location could not be better for visiting Dollywood, and the cabin was spacious enough for our family of 8. It had fun games for the little ones and a hot tub and fire pit for the adults. We enjoyed our stay very much.
The location could not be better. Realistic walking distance to the parks but also deep in the woods and private. The teens loved the air hockey, basketball, and other games while the adults loved the hot tub. Very nice stay overall.
We had a lovely time at this place. It's proximity to Dollywood is perfect, while also providing a feel of a somewhat isolated cabin in the woods. The cabin was great for kids and adults alike. There was some minor issues during our stay but, the owner was quick to resolve each one of them in a satisfying manner. Would highly recommend this to others!
My group and I had the best time at Around the Bend!! Everything we could've needed was there....including things we didnt think of like a highchair and pack and play!! I picked the location because of how close it was to Dollywood...and you can hear the train from the porch!! All of us loved it, especially the kids that ranged from 1 year to 14 years!! We will be booking again asap!!
Family really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Only issue that we had was the microwave. It seemed to be under powered. Frozen biscuit usually takes 45 seconds at home, took 3 minutes at the cabin. This was a really small problem. The road to the cabin is steep. We encountered no problem with it, but a less experienced driver probably would have issues. This cabin really worked for our family of seven.
I gave a 5 star review because I know lower will mess with overall rating and the issues we had were minor but I also want to give a fully honest review for people booking. Pros:1. Location can’t be beat if going to Dollywood. We were 2 minutes away max and that was very nice after a long day at the park. 2. Clean3. Host is quick to respond to messages4. The fire pit area and hot tub were lovely and we spent a lot of time out side enjoying that. Cons:1. The air hockey table doesn’t work. We booked this cabin based on the pictures and amenities for my son for his birthday. The thing he was most excited for was air hockey. When I contacted the host they were nice enough but there wasn’t a solution offered or a credit just an I’m sorry it happens kind of vibe and suggested messing with it as previous guests had issues but were able to fiddle around and get it to work. I would have handled this much differently if I were the owner and wanted a repeat guest. 2. Some things are outdated such as the basketball set up, air hockey table as mentioned.3. Driveway indeed is quite steep. We didn’t have any issues but in the snowy weather I could see it being a problem. 4. It says in description there is a jetted tub in the master bathroom but there is not. All in all we had a lovely time and this is a decent place to book. The fire pit area and hot tub are worth it. Had it not been for the disappointment my son had I wouldn’t have complained about the other issues.
This property was as advertised. If your are visiting Dollywood, I'm not sure there's a better place to stay. You are literally just down the street from the parking lot. My family enjoyed the game room, hot tub and fire pit. We would love to stay there again.
This cabin was everything it lists. Very nice and close to everything. Just a hop around the corner from Dollywood! Would recommend this cabin! Driveway is a bit steep but other than that wonderful! We even got to see a bear!
Great little cabin. Across the street from Dollywood.
Around the bin was a great little cabin. It literally across the street from Dollywood so it’s very convenient if your going to Dollywood while in Pigeon Forge. Everything was clean and put together. Enjoyed building a fire each night. Has a wood burning fireplace in the living room. My kids enjoyed the hot tub as well.
This place was amazing. My family and I really enjoyed staying here. 3 large bedrooms with big beds and the layout was incredible. The hot tub was so nice and relaxing. I would recommend this place to anyone!
Was nice place. Didn’t like the drive way. Didn’t like hearing the neighbors outside in their hot tub while we were trying to sleep.

Thank you for your review. We are in the Mountains so we certainly expect mountain driving. We've seen many different types of vehicles at our cabin so we are certain that everyone can simply trust their vehicle to drive right on up. (We make sure to mention this multiple times in our listing as well as our messages just incase.)
Hope to see you again and thank you for being an awesome guest!
