Amazing Cabin and location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I can't recommend the Nut House Cabin enough. It is close to town but far enough away we felt like we were in the woods with no one around.

Perfect Rental!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cabin was perfect! We have had some really bad short term rental experiences and I had written them off completely and vowed to only stay in hotels and resorts. However, we took a chance on this cabin and I’m so glad we did. Most importantly, it was super clean! The location was lovely and peaceful- away from town but close enough to get to town easily. We saw bears, enjoyed the wonderful porches, and had plenty of space for our family to spread out. The only thing that is needed is a couple more large pots and pans for people who want to cook in, which we did a couple times. We were able to make it work with what was there though so it wasn’t a big deal. Other than that, I can’t think of anything else this place is missing. We loved it and highly recommend staying here!

We're grateful for your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you and your family back for another fantastic stay!

Time Away

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cabin is absolutely beautiful. Views of the mountains are priceless. The living spaces are very comfortable and would fit a family very nicely. Lots of steps but not that much of an issue. The King bed is very high and my wife had to get a small stool to get in (she's in 5'2). It is comfy though. Very close to Gatlinburg. I would definitely stay here again.
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar, 2026
Thank you for the wonderful review, Richard! We are so very stoked you enjoyed the beauty of the cabin and those priceless mountain views. Its great to hear that the living spaces were comfortable and worked well for your stay, and that the king bed was cozy once you got settled in. We also appreciate you mentioning the steps and the bed height, as that can be helpful for future guests to know. Most of all, we are happy you loved the location and your time near Gatlinburg. We would truly be delighted to host you again anytime! We encourage guests to book direct and save up to 15% on your booking, see you soon!

Great Honeymoon Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I had an amazing time and loved the space and versatility the various floors had to offer. Way more space than we really needed, but we loved it none the less. We got to see a bear on the road to our cabin the 1st night! That was exciting. This cabin would be amazing for a group or family.

Location is awesome and quiet, and convenient to downtown. Wonderful kitchen for breakfasts. All appliances were new and clean. We would absolutely stay here again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was really nice, everything was nice, furniture, the house. It was a very short stay but we loved it. Tried to leave it as we found it. Could have been a little cleaner. The trash can lid and stove was pretty bad. We did not use the stove. But when I texted or needed help they were on it, very nice..

Yes, to The Nut House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a beautiful cabin with a beautiful view of the mountains. I liked the layout and the functionality of the cabin. We really liked the labels and remotes. We enjoyed every level inside and outside of the cabin. We liked the comfort and availability of fluffy blankets throughout the cabin. We loved that HVACs were in main areas. This added to the comfort. I would like to recommend The Nut House placing a keypad upstairs. It was a little bit of an inconvenience from time to time since we preferred parking at the top. Also, we had to check to make sure that the refrigerator was completely closed. It would look like it was closed, but later we would find it wide open. Plus, if The Nut House would adjust the water pressure in the showers because they were too low. Other than a few minor inconveniences, overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend The Nut House to others.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Mar, 2025
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the cabin, the beautiful mountain views, and all the little details that made your stay comfortable.
