Perfect tiny cabin

My family and I stayed here over the thanksgiving holiday. What a wonderful little cabin, has everything you need to get away. WiFi is very spotty but that’s okay because we were there to relax and unplug. The view from the porch is wonderful. Loved the hot tub and the fire pit area as well.

Relaxing in the Smokies

I saw this property while searching for a cabin in Gatlinburg. The price was great and the location was wonderful. We took 2 thirteen year old boys that really relished it. They played card games and other games, they also rambled through the woods , which they really enjoyed. MAMAW and PAPAW relaxed. Great place to stay.

Amazing stay

The property was very well kept and the cabin was very nice. Check in was so easy and the information book that was in the cabin was very well put together. Everything about the stay was good. The only thing that could have made it a little better was to have some type of awning over the hot tub. It rained on 2 evening and we couldnt use the hot tub. It would also help keep leaves from falling in it when its being used.

Cabin was amazing

The cabin was amazing. Clean and welcoming. The customer service for the management company was fabulous, very friendly and accommodating. The location was a bit of a surprise. The road leading to it was 1 lane, twisting, and made me a bit anxious driving it at first. There is no space outside except the small area fire pit area. But the area attractions were close enough to enjoy and there is a peacefulness in the solitude of the location.

Cabin was nice. GPS coming from Florida brought us down a one land mountain road. Need better cleaning. Dead bugs on window seal. Dirty floor. Property manager was great at responding and addressing issues. Needs to replace beds soon.. squeaking was a bit much.

Vacation 24

The cabin was a nice size, fit the 4 of us well. The dogs were very happy too! Plenty of dishes cookware and full size stove/fridge. Enjoyed evenings at the fire pit. The hot tub was green not just because of the type of water (copper in it), when adjusting the jets brown murky water came out. The master bed sounded as if it was going to fall apart. The surrounding area was beautiful and peaceful. All the activities we wanted to attend were close to the cabin making it easy to take day trips.

Lovely place

I did notice that gutter starting fall off. Board that was holding up roof was not connected. Railing was loose as well. Other than that it was wonderful place. Just wasn’t sure if anybody made aware of these things. Also hot tub needs leveling.

Little Cabin in the Woods

We had a very nice time exploring. The cabin was clean and well equipped. The clothes dryer has a bearing going out, so it's pretty loud. However, it dries clothing very well! The cabin is on well water so it did have a very unpleasant odor for the first two days. The water also turned orange on day 3, but the office manager had someone out to fix it right away. The property manager responded quickly to each issue we had and the problem was immediately corrected. We would certainly stay again.

Our cabin was not winterized the refrigerator was broken the how water was broken the master bathroom didn't flush correctly and stopped up. The fold out couch had squrrel nuts rat fecies and dirt all in the matress and under the seat cusions. The company text me and sent me to like Bearadise cabin 91 it was 23 minutes from.mount laurel and its hot tub was broken the main reason I wanted a cabin in the first place. When vrbo asked me what I want I want hot tub and I didn't get it. Something was broken at every cabin. Thats not good service.

I appreciate your feed back. We paid a repair company to go out to the cabin and check out the fridge after your report. The fridge was working it was just set on the wrong mode to make sure it was cooling properly. We did have to get a plumber out to repair the toilet. The hot tub at the other cabin is the kind that as long as it is running it is heating. We even had a repair person go out and everything was working great. I do apologize that you didn't enjoy your stay we do hope that you will give us another chance at staying with us.

Stay

When we arrived at our house we noticed how little yard we had. A bit disappointing being we brought pets. Picture wasn’t terrific on the website. The house was very clean and well kept. Being business owners Internet was important for us and unfortunately we had 0 the entire stay. The log cabin did offer amenities of dishes and even spices which was nice. The dryer was extremely annoying because the belt squeaked the entire cycle of the dryer being on. The range oven wouldn’t go above preheat as well so cooking in stove wasn’t an option. The staff who manages the place was very nice but our impression is things need to improve greatly before we would stay at this rental again. We don’t want to discourage others as it might be what they are interested in, it just wasn’t up to our standards for what we need as family.

We had a great trip. With 4 kids it's difficult to find somewhere affordable, but this was great. Steep climb up the mountain if you are not used to it and it was out there a ways, but no complaints.
