Great views, location

We loved the views from the deck and the convenience to GSMNP hikes like Grotto and Rainbow Falls. Would stay here again on future trips to Gatlinburg.

Family vacation

Wonderful cabin! Super nice host! The only thing is the cabin was not as clean as expected. Its ok though, not the host fault! They even had the cleaners come back out to re mop the floors! Would definitely stay here again. We lovesd it.

Great cabin with amazing view

That cabin was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Very spacious, and David was a great host. The property management is great too. They called to tell us that there were wildfires and gave us an alternate route to get into the property. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back.

Closer to Home

It snowed and we went downtown and while we were out it started sleeting and ice so when we started back up the mt. We couldn’t drive up to the top so we left our cars and walked up to the top of mountain on sleet and snow which was as high as you could go and my husband and I are 82 and 86 but we made it with our family!! That was an experience we will never forget!

Great Location and Stay

This was an enjoyable location to stay. It is located at the top of the neighborhood, which was quiet and peaceful. There was sufficient room for our family. The children enjoyed the arcade game, pool table, and Wii! Conveniently located so the drive to downtown was not long (5 minutes). Beds were relatively comfortable. Everything was clean.

Great Cousins Trip

The cabin was very clean and well stocked. It was a great space and lay out for 13 people. We had a couple of mishaps that were outside of the property management’s control (power outage) but they were quick to respond with help. The location is far enough away from the main strip of Gatlinburg that it’s peaceful but close enough that getting to the shops and activities were easily accessible. The only suggestions we have are to have a few extra towels for large groups and to consider getting sheets that are a little softer. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely stay here again!
