The cabin was in a good location, convenient with easy drives to pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg, pretty rustic environment, the kitchen was newer, and the decor was nice. The host communicated with us throughout the stay. I’m giving a lower rating mainly due to the cleanliness of the cabin. And no offer to replace stained & dirty sheets (there were no extras In the cabin) . They did ensure all complaints would be taken care of AFTER our stay. We found ants in the bathroom, black mold along the wall beside the bathroom sink that could be a health hazard, obvious moisture issue in the bathroom. This gave me great concern not knowing the type of mold it could be. The shower door was loose at the top. The stairs had a small piece of wood, sticking out, Upstairs in the sleeping/living area, the sheets had stains on them & tiny black spots. We found spiders on the other bed. I realize this is a cabin & you will come across spiders. The sectional sofa also had stains of unknown origin on it, and there was a garbage bag left with linens unknown to us if they were clean or dirty.We notified the owner, ask if we could call them, they stated they preferred to use the Messenger service for documentation purposes. We sent photos of all issues.If your older/small kids know the stairs/kitchen are down stairs-living and beds up. if you get up in the middle of the night to bathroom/kitchen be prepared to navigate stairs, also if you have young children they did have a gate at top for safety
