Everything was clean and exactly as advertised. Very convenient to everything. We had such a great time. We came in a minivan and it was difficult to get up the drive. It had been raining and there were quite a few leaves down. We finally had to back up the driveway. We will definitely book here again but bring a truck or SUV with AWD/4WD.

The cabin is beautiful and very clean. I was in a group of ten, and we had plenty of space because the cabin has three levels, plus rocking chairs and extra seating outside. I appreciated having a bathroom and a tv in each bedroom, and I loved the river rock details in some of the showers. The beds were comfortable.The first and second floors each have an extra bathroom, which is nice. The floor plan for the main level is open, and the kitchen comes with everything you might want to use to cook, down to cookware, spices, a Crock Pot, and an Instant Pot. The appliances are very modern, with a large refrigerator and dishwasher. The cabin also has a coffee bar with plenty of mugs and both a drip coffee maker and a Keurig. I enjoyed the outdoor amenities. Sitting in the porch in the rocking chairs was so peaceful. We utilized the two small outdoor grills, and the cabin comes with grilling utensils. We just picked up charcoal at the nearby Food City. We making s’mores while sitting around the fire pit. Some wood was already there for us to use. My favorite amenity was the hot tub! It was very clean and a nice size. They also have towels just for the hot tub.One issue we had was getting up the driveway because it is very steep and the fallen leaves limit traction. The sign for the cabin is back from the road, so we got lost at first. Thankfully communication with the host was excellent. Even if I sent an email, I received a quick, professional response, day or night.

Great Location and Beautiful Cabin

We had a great stay over the Christmas holiday week. The cabin is in a great location; central to everything. Property is beautiful and well appointed. Kitchen was very well stocked with all of the essentials needed for preparing family meals. It was an ideal property to have 5 king bedrooms each with its own en suite bathroom as well as two additional half bathrooms. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were well appointed also. Overall great stay and hope to visit again soon!!!

This was a beautiful cabin in Gatlinburg! Very quiet, even with neighbors around, we still didn't hear much from anyone! The bedrooms with attached bathrooms are very nice, decent sized, when bringing a large party of people. We also were big fans of the family room and then a separate living room for lazy days lounging with the family. The only thing we found concerning was the hot tub, the water was 106 days overdue for a change and it smelled funny - it didn't stop our kids from using it, but the adults didn't use it as much because of the smell (Now this wasn't sent to the host so it may have been a one-time mishap). The hill to get up to the cabin is a little tricky, but we made it in a 15-passenger van - so it is doable. I would rent this cabin again in the future!

TN Cabin

Cabin itself is quite nice but no view of the mountains and must drive past a very questionable apartment complex to get to property. Driveway is quite steep and had a fair amount of moss that caused slippage when driving up in rain.

We had a fantastic stay at Fire Pit Evenings, Arcade, 5 King Suites & Hot Tub from Nov 7–11. Our group of nine loved that the cabin had five King Suites, each with its own bathroom. The bedrooms were spacious, comfortable, and had TVs. The cabin was very clean and well-stocked, and we easily made our full Thanksgiving meal with everything provided in the kitchen.We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, and the game room, which was a huge hit. The location was quiet with only a couple of nearby neighbors, and we even saw a bear walking down the driveway, which was amazing! It’s also close to the Gatlinburg transit stop, making it easy to get into town.The only issue was the steep driveway, which had us a little concerned because snow was in the forecast. The host provided ice melt if we needed it, but thankfully we didn’t.Our host, Derek, was wonderful. His communication was impeccable, and check-in and check-out were very easy. The host provides a house app with all the information you could need—how everything works, house details, and helpful tips about Gatlinburg. It made the stay extremely smooth.

If you have the chance, stay HERE!

If you have the opportunity to stay at Endless Vacation, BOOK IT! This house exceeded expectations in every single way. It truly has 5 Primary suites, each of which are subtly different and each has its merit. The owner has thought of everything right down to including several days worth of wine glasses so that we didn’t need to run the dishwasher twice a day. The location of this house was perfect. It was in Gatlinburg, but felt miles from everything. We could almost (but not quite) see a neighbor’s house. We had the honor of seeing a bear while we were in the hot tub. We probably should’ve been scared, but we were more concerned with grabbing our cameras. In summary, do not miss the opportunity to stay on this fantastic house - we loved every minute!

Best cabin ever

We have been visiting the Gatlinburg area for many years and this cabin is hands down the best one we have rented for MANY reasons!! 1-clean 2- nice bedroom set up, comfortable mattresses, blackout blinds/curtains so you can sleep in. 3- updated throughout including televisions, decor and furniture 4- great location- few minutes to Gatlinburg 5- great communication 6- nicely equipped kitchen- crockpot, cheese grader, two coffee makers (drip & Keurig) to name a few items we were shocked to see. 7-no neighbors close by. We are definitely planning to stay here in the future and have shared this listing with our friends. These owners understand what it takes to have a great vacation rental. I cannot say one negative about this home. You may need 4 wheel drive in any winter weather to get up the driveway but after all, it is the mountains.

The property was exactly as advertised. Once we arrived it was even better! I felt like I was at home. The house was extremely clean and well appointed. My family of 10 stayed for a week and the children especially enjoyed the arcade games and hot tub. The only drawback, which was pretty insignificant was, we could have used 2 more dishwasher pods and another garbage bag. The kitchen sink was missing a drain stopper making it difficult to keep food from going down the drain. If course, these are little things which shouldn't deter anyone from starting in the peppery. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of linens and pool towels. The kitchen was well supplied, making meal prep easy. There also were plenty of dishes and flatware for a big crowd. The property management should be aware that there is a huge hole at the mouth of Ridge Rd. making it almost impossible to make the turn to drive up the rest of the street without doing damage to a vehicle. We had to turn the opposite direction and drive up another driveway, turn around and go up on the other side of the hole. It should get repaired. Overall, our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We would definitely return.

This cabin was AMAZING, especially for our family of 9 people and could accommodate so many more!! We had 3 littles and a 10 y/o old so if you need to be away from noisy kids, this is perfect!!! We loved it and with this being our first experience in the Mountains, we feel very blessed that we found this place!! Can’t say enough great things about it!!!! I can’t even say enough about having the 5 bathrooms and they were beautiful!! The bar area on the lowest level was actually like a small kitchen that I didn’t realize was there!! Our host was Great too!! Our stay was perfect!!

It brings us so much joy to hear the cabin had plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax, while still offering spaces where guests could enjoy a little peace and quiet. We're especially glad the five bathrooms, spacious layout, and lower-level kitchenette were pleasant surprises that made your stay even more convenient. We designed the cabin with large families and group getaways in mind, so it is wonderful to know it was the perfect fit for your crew. Thank you for your kind words about our hospitality as well. We hope your first mountain vacation is just the beginning of many more, and we'd be thrilled to welcome your family back to Permanent Vacation anytime!
