Great location! We walked down to the parkway and were able to walk to the Main Street in Gatlinburg. Cabin was as described, clean and plenty of beds for our family getaway
Overall, our stay was good. The stairs that led to the lower level rooms needed a light. The balconies were not clean. I looked forward to sitting on them in the morning but didn’t since they were dirty and unkept. For our family, going outside to go up and downstairs was inconvenient, but we made it work. The cabin is rustic with lots of character and was very clean. The communication with the host was great, and check in was easy. It was not an easy walk to get to the main drag in Gatlinburg, we had to pay for parking.
My coworkers and I needed a place close to downtown. This property was exactly what we needed! Excellent accommodations, great communication and clean! Thank you for hosting us this week.
Cute little cabin just a few min walk to downtown Gatlinburg. The beds were comfy and we really enjoyed sitting on the porch at night listening to the stream below. Would definitely book again! Thank you Zach for sharing your home with us!
This house is far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the city to relax, but close enough to walk instead of paying for parking. There is plenty of excitement for all ages.

Tammy, great hosting you. Love the location as it is such an easy 6 minute walk downtown.
Zach was very accommodating and responsive when messaged! He checked in on us often. The cabin is in a great location and easy to walk to the main attractions.
Our family had a great stay in the cabin. It is a little quirky in its set up but we like staying at unique properties. It was nice to be able to walk into town. Gatlinburg can be very busy so it was nice to avoid looking for parking.
Space was cozy and clean, and bedrooms were warm and spacious and this place definitely had all the things needed to make this stay fun smooth and steady. The owner was great with communicating and process was smooth
We stayed here for a girls’ trip including 6 adults with three children under 4. The beds/bedrooms worked great for this. Just a short walk to the downtown area made it very convenient. Owner was very quick in responding to messages.
The host was excellent! He was very responsive, quickly addressing every question. The Vrbo ad says “5 minute walk to the Parkway” in Gatlinburg. No, it’s 0.6 miles to the Parkway, about a 12-15 minute walk. The location is good, though, with the Parkway (downtown strip) fairly close in one direction and the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail in the opposite direction. The cabin is quaint and historic, though that does mean the bathrooms and the kitchen are on the small size.
This cabin was perfect for our family weekend getaway. We didn’t have to get back into the car until we left for home. Everything was walking distance or the trolley was a great option to get around town.
The cabin was clean and the beds are very comfortable. We will definitely remember this cabin for future trips here.
This was the perfect location for a Memorial Day weekend getaway with my children. It was an easy walk from the cabin to the Parkway - much better than getting caught in traffic and fighting for a parking spot. The drive to Dollywood was about 20 minutes and the drive to the Smoky Mountain National Park visitor center was 10-15 minutes.The cabin was cozy and comfortable, and easily accomodated my family of 4, with beds to spare! The kitchen area is small, but well appointed and had everything we needed. We did have the chance to see the neighborhood bear a few times as well :).We would definitely stay here again!

Thank you
The condo is very close to the downtown!!
We enjoyed the walk!!
Everything was good, the only concern we had that was a bit smaller then we expected.
It worked perfectly for our needs. Location is very convenient walk to the strip. Zach was always attentive and answered questions promptly.
Interesting to find out it was one of the few in the area that did not burn down in 2016.
First time in TN and this place was perfect to fit our group. The heat had a little issues but didnt hurt the overall quality of the rental. We were able to cook, work from the rental (good internet) and have a great first time in TN close to all our tournament events. The porch view is amazing and we had a great time with more than 1 family in it. Super relaxing cabin.
The propery overall is nice. It is in a great location near town, with only a short walk to the main shopping area. The beds were comfortable and the host was very responsive and attentive to our needs. Small issue with the HVAC unit, but it was quickly resolved.
The unit is cozy and easily sleeps 8, but a little bit more seating in the house and out on the porch would have been nice for larger groups. But i understand the space won’t allow for it.
Overall nice cabin with a great location.
