The property was exactly as described. Beautiful home with spectacular views! This property doesn't disappoint. Would highly recommend it for family reunions or special occasions!
Our family recently celebrated our father's 80th birthday - with three generations in attendance! - at this cabin. Best View in Smokies could not have been a better fit for our celebration! It truly provided the best and most beautiful mountain views, and with so many wonderful amenities, everyone had a great time. The host was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process from booking to planning/preparing to the actual stay. We highly recommend this property and host!

Convenient location, close to town and activities. The views from the top-level floor were beautiful and a highlight of the home.A few areas could use improvement, including a deeper cleaning, better water pressure, and attention to some squeaky beds. The steep road to the house is also something to be aware of.Overall, we had a decent stay and appreciated the location and views.
Great stay! The house was clean, and there were plenty of fun activities for the kids and amazing views, which made it a great family trip. Overall, everything went smoothly and was an enjoyable experience!
This place truly lives up to its name—absolutely the best view in the Smokies! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and perfect for a large group. The location felt private but was still close to everything we wanted to do. The host was responsive and easy to work with, and check-in was smooth. We made so many great memories here—highly recommend and would definitely stay again!
Game Room floor is amazing! Love the King Bedrooms with their own bathrooms. This house is at the top of the mountain and feels very private. Tons of parking and room to play basketball in the cul-de-sac.
First...wow!! The property was exactly as advertised. I was a little hesitant when I saw the pictures...too.good to be true. It was all true. The bottom floor has a small theater, laser tag guns and small portable vests so you can play anywhere. The laundry room is downstairs as well. There are 4 bedroom and two.bathrooms down stairs. Two of the rooms are bunk beds but they are fulls and not twins. The main floor has a massive kitchen that has two of everything (stoves, fridges, etc). The dining room table can hold up to 16 people and there is a huge TV. There is also a sauna and a hot tub on this floor. The only thing is there is no couches or anything on this floor, so it is not the main living room area. Only kitchen table seating but there is plenty of chairs. However, we made it work for us. There are two bedrooms on this floor. The third floor is a game room area(Pac-Man, air hockey, shuffle board, pool, etc) and two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The 4th floor(so many steps ) is the living room area with a view that is breath taking. There is also a fullnkitchen and a milkshake maker on this floor. There is also a bedroom and bathroom. The grill is non this floor and a picnic table seating. The outside porch area has hammock chairs, rocking chairs, fire pits. There is also espresso machine on every floor, k cup and a coffee maker. Amazing. The most amazing thing was the customer service. Every question was answered and every need met. Big shout out to Dane!!!!!

It was a nice large house at the top of the mountain. It was convenient area for family to meet from various states. It was also close to the surrounding towns. It appeared clean, however, the jet tubs were not clean and several stoppers were missing which made it impossible to draw a bath.The kitchen and breakfast room sinks were missing strainer stoppers. You could not have a sink full of dishwater to clean larger pots and dishes.The microwave in the breakfast kitchen did not work and needed service.There was a water leak above one of the double queen beds in the basement. There was not enough beds for 30 people unless you are counting sofas for beds.One of the bathroom’s lights above the sink were not working. There were plenty of dishes, glasses, and silverware. There needs to be a 2 qt pitcher. There were no large baking sheets or large casserole dishes. Some of the small metal bakeware was rusting! The pots and pans were of a nice assortment, however most were teflon and the surface was badly scratched. The host did provide the correct cooking utensils for teflon, apparently something else was used. The hosts were attentive when called and addressed several problems quickly.The house was not suitable for outdoor walking or hiking because the terrain was steep surrounding the house. There was a level large area for parking for many vehicles.
Highly recommend - our family had a wonderful stay at this property! If we plan to have another trip up this way - we will definitely be returning!The hosts were very friendly, and had great communication from the start. They answered all the questions I had before I booked this cabin. The kitchens were spacious, plenty of room to fit food and drinks for 17 people and cook as well. Lots of counter space, and a table big enough for us all to each. Amenities we used: hot tub, fire pit, game room (NBA and Pac-Man were a hit with the kids!) - all were great condition and we were able to spend quality time with family. The view on the 3rd floor was spectacular - those awake definitely enjoyed watching the sunrise over the mountains :)The whole cabin was very clean upon arrival, and well stocked with bedding, towels, pillows, soap/shampoo, toilet paper, towels, etc. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, cutlery, pot holders, cookware and baking sheets. We also had 1 dog with us. The location was fantastic for activities we wanted to do in Pigeon Forge and Sevierville.Once again, highly recommend this cabin for large groups seeking a relaxing time in the mountains.
First time ever visiting the Smoky Mountains and this cabin made the trip unforgettable!! I came to celebrate my 40th birthday with family and friends and honestly couldn’t be happier with our stay. The cabin is HUGE — way bigger than the pictures make it look. Seriously, the photos do not do it justice at all. Everything mentioned in the details was completely accurate, which made the whole experience even better. The place was spotless, cozy, had amazing mountain vibes, and was super easy to find too. We spent the whole trip saying “wow” every time we walked into another room Beautiful views, peaceful atmosphere, and memories we’ll never forget. Already talking about coming back again someday!
