Stay-West Family

Overall had a great stay. Noticed a few things were very dirty. Found food on the pull out sofa, dishes were nasty, and hot tub was low on water, the back deck (very high up) the balcony ledge was VERY VERY loose.

Amazing! But…

We had an amazing time here, but the mattresses are god awful, it felt like we were sleeping on cinderblocks. The hot tub played a huge part in loosening up lol. But overall this cabin was in a great location, my family enjoyed themselves.

The property was very accurate to the listing online. Wasn't far from the strip. Hot tub and pool table were a hit with the teens. Overall loved the cabin and the location would stay there again with my family.

Cabin in smokies

It was a beautiful and quiet location. Some amenities lacked, which cause us to not be able to clean as efficiently as we would have liked. Things like Kleenex, dish soap, broom, would have been nice included in the fee. Also the carpenter bees were TERRIBLE. We couldn't walk in and out without getting swarmed!

Our stay was great our only complaints were that the people never contacted me back when I reached out with questions. Also the cabin could have used some extra utensils in the kitchen. Overall a great place to stay.

More than we expected

Very beautiful cabin in the hills. We loved eating breakfast on the covered porch. Although there was a hottub we did not use it. We did use the pool table downstairs. Very nice for the money.

Needs a few things

Pillows too small. Not enough storage for clothes in upstairs bedroom. Needs a dresser at least. Lots of cobwebs. Minor stuff but could be perfect with a few changes.

Mtn Get A Way

The cabin was okay, like w/others in the past the couch & love seat were just not comfortable at all & that's disappointing when you're there a week. Upstairs mattress very hard - hurt my back. Cabin had cob webs & just very dusty every where. Had no broom that we could find, We will be back to the mountains for sure but will not stay at this cabin. Will try out something different.

Cute

did not like the location. Back porch was too high for me & didn't show that online. I'm afraid of heights. No parking area. Did not like where my car sit at. Wasn't listed on the web about that. I will not pick that location ever again. I probably want be back to Gatlinburg for quite some time. Thank You!
