No Wifi the Whole Time

Not what we were expecting. My one family vacation a year event and it really stressed me out to the point I had anexity the whole time. The wifi did not work at all the whole time we were there. I communicated the issue and it was not resolved. Having to drive out of cabin just to use your phone to check where to take the family out too was not a pleasant experience. I was honestly hoping for some sort of discount for the inconvenience but none was offered. The A/C went out on the last day there but that was fixed that same night I was highly thankful for that.

Nice place to stay

The house was not bad, it needs a deep cleaning. We got the rest we needed on our quick trip to Dollywood.

Bears!

Cabin was very nice. We loved the wraparound porch, loft game room and fire pit. Really excited to see bears three times from the porch looking down the hill. Would recommend the cabin for your next stay.

Weekend with Friends

We had a great time at the cabin. It was clean and the staff was very helpful. Our a/c was not working when we arrived. We called the office and we had someone fixing it that night. The fire pit was great and the cabin was scenic, comfortable, and quiet. Also the location was good with 20-30 minute drives to Pigeon Forge and the Smokies. It was the perfect place to stay.

Great Spot

Great little spot and location. Not too far from all the main attractions. Not ideal for electric car. There was not an outside plug close to the car that worked. My 2 cents to the owner - The home needs some serious deep cleaning and dusting. The sheets and comforters need a deep wash too. However, overall we had a lovely stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was spotless, so cozy, and location is perfect. Secluded with a view but just 15 minutes from The Island and some shopping. The staff was extremely helpful with booking and check in. The cabin had enough stocked in the kitchen to make staying in and cooking pretty convenient. Grill was clean and the gas tank was full. Already planning a second trip!

Tennessee Get Away

This location needs to take some time to do some cleaning! There was still crumbs on the floor in the corners of the rooms. And the more you looked around and started looking in the cupboards, there was left over trash and wrappers left behind. The pull out couch was littered with crumbs and food wrappers.

Perfect getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was amazing. Loved the set up of the cabin. Very clean and well taken care of. Pool table was a bit disappointing because it was a short table and really needed new felt on top. Water in jacuzzi tub got cold fast but there was a hot tub too. Would definitely go back though.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful cabin, well appointed. Comfy bedrooms. Great hot tub. Fire pit was a plus! Driveway was a bit treacherous due to the steep incline but was able too negotiate with a little caution. Upstairs game room and the cubby beds upstairs were gone eat for kids! Couch was a bit worn but workable. Toilet in full bath needed some securing to the floor but worked fine.

Probably has not been cleaned or maintained for quite some time. Appliance do not work properly,

Definitely not worth the premium price. I would remove from your listings. Cleaning is pitiful, appliances and doors horrible. Honestly not sure I can do business with you again after this.

The cabin itself was nice, needs maintenance for sure like the bathroom door didn’t lock for privacy, spiders webs were terrible all over the place, windows and floors were super dusty and nasty. I don’t think anybody has been cleaning there for years. This cabin needs for TCL for sure and I think the should care more about Customers being comfortable and happy enjoying vacation instead of worrying about spiders being somewhere dirty.

Family Getaway

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at Wet Bear Paws. The location was perfect for our family to enjoy Gatlinburg and the National forest, while staying away from the crowds. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor living space. The cabin needs a serious deep cleaning & we would have appreciated some household necessities that we’ve had in all other vrbos that we’ve stayed in the past. We traveled from Ohio to get here & had to go buy household items that I would have thought would have been provided (dish soap, trash bags, etc). So just keep in mind if you are traveling here, to pack that stuff ahead of time or be prepared to make some runs to the store. Otherwise, the cabin was quaint and cute & the porch won my heart. My 5 year old & husband also enjoyed the games up in the loft and the baby (1.5 year old) enjoyed the open floor plan to run around!

OK, I have stayed in worse. But I also have stayed in much bette

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a good time and really enjoyed are stay but I was disappointed in the décor of the cabin and have a couple of suggestion. The futon upstairs needs to be trashed. The downstairs furniture also could be replaced, TV'S the cabin was a very nice cabin but didn't offer much entertainment, suggestion it's 2014 get some big flat screen TV'S and trash the old ones. Fire pit in the back yard off of the deck. Open deck so you can access it without going all the way around the front. Also this would help when adding more water to hot tube. Bath room doors, none of them locked and the upstairs door wouldn't even latch. Front door was very hard to lock and open. I am not going to complain about the price but with just a few upgrades and making some changes this could have been a much greater experience.
