Cabin with Mountain Views, Hot Tub & Game Room!

The views were great, and we had plenty of room in the house to not feel like our group of 10 was on top of each other. While we were there we found that there were a bunch of lights that didn’t work, a couple doors had broken handles and wouldn’t open to the deck. The kitchen was kind of dirty on arrival, with the coffee machine having old coffee grounds in it, fingerprints and streaks all over the fridge and some dishes put away dirty. The grill was halfway cleaned, with the brush left on the grate and the lid left open like someone started and walked away. The towels are laughably small, I would suggest bringing your own towels for the hot tub, which we could only get some of the jets to work in. The fireplace was supposed to be working but was inoperable which was a big letdown, it could be a nice cabin, but in its current shape it’s not worth the money.

The house was beautiful and clean. It was peaceful and relaxing. The kids had a blast with all the games. The deck had wonderful views. We had bear at the house. Hot tub felt great! Loved the location to get into Park without going through traffic/town. Would stay here again!

The house was clean, could have been stocked a little better but it was very comfortable for our group. The teenagers loved the basement area.

The cabin was at the top of a mountain on a narrow winding road. it was easy to find amongst the other cabins which were nearby but not too close. The cabin had a small drive up parking area that maybe 3 large cars could fit on. Upon entry we were greeted by the beautifully open cabin that was very clean and perfect for our large family. Every person had enough space to have privacy if they wanted to but also not right on top of each other when we wanted to all be amongst one another. The place was pretty clean aside from some of the corners having piles of dead bugs and some crumbs under the bed. Overall I was impressed by the views and even got to see a bear walking beneath the balcony area.

We had an amazing time as a family we specifically enjoyed the pool table upstairs. There was so much room for all 12 of us with extra beds. The jacuzzi was a great place to hang out. It was about a 30-40 minute drive to Gatlinburg but the views were beautiful. Very peaceful stay!

Our stay was really great. Nice location to get to hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We selected the house due to amenities, location, view, and amount of space. We had 2 families staying with kids ranging from 3-8. We all had a blast and had plenty of room. Kids and adults loved shuffleboard. As an FYI, the bunk bed was bigger/taller than expected so the older kids shared that room instead of the littles as we planned but not an issue. There are some decorations centered around Christianity and bibles in most rooms. I didn’t see mention of that in the photos or reviews so wanted to share. Management company was very responsive and handled a couple of questions and issues that popped up. Great stay for the price point!

We had an amazing stay at this cabin! Our group of 14 felt completely comfortable and right at home. One of our favorite things was that every bedroom had its own bathroom—huge plus when traveling with a big group. The entire cabin was spotless and well taken care of. Mornings on the outdoor deck with coffee were absolutely beautiful and peaceful. The kids had a blast with all the games available, which kept them entertained the whole time. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook our meals. And to top it all off—we even got to see bears during our stay, which was such an unforgettable experience (from a safe distance, of course)! Highly recommend this cabin for families or groups looking for a clean, comfortable, and scenic getaway. We’d definitely come back.

Good house would have liked more communication on hot tub and chemicals for it and whatnot. It was dirty after 2 days using it a few times a day and they said there wasn’t anything really to do. Outside of that great stay. We had the max amount of people and towels were in short supply. Would be nice if they provided some for the hot tub in addition to the shower towels so you don’t have to double up and do laundry so often, but again we had the max amount of people so it’s to be expected I guess. Would definitely stay again. Bring dishwasher pods

I recently just stayed, and my stay was absolutely amazing. The host gave clear instructions for arriving and leaving the property. When you walked in it smelled so good, was very clean, and beautiful. The location was more private than other cabins which was exactly what i was looking for! It had a bathroom in every room which was super nice. Beautiful nature views off every balcony! I would recommend this place to someone who is looking for a nice peaceful stay!

Had my Bachelor Weekend here. Was nice to relax after a night out with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The basketball hoop counter wasn’t working and I forgot to bring ping pong balls for the table, but those were just minor things that didn’t take away from how nice it was. Staff was super friendly and accommodating for a later checkout! That saved us a headache . Beautiful sunset and sunrise and I will always remember this weekend. Great Time and a great place to stay! With lots of memories made :)

We had a really great weekend at the cabin with friends! It was spacious and we loved that all the bedrooms had their own bathroom. We also really enjoyed the views. However, if you are planning to book in the winter, it might be worth considering the weather conditions. On our check out day, it had snowed and iced the night before. The management company wrote us to say that our safety is most important. One of the vehicles (2WD) from our group could not get out of the drive way due to ice and had to stay an extra night. The management company billed us for that extra night even though there was no choice. The roads were blocked most of the day because so many vehicles had crashed on the mountain and tow trucks weren't even able to pass until later in the evening. The next day, that vehicle had to pay a tow truck to come pull them out of the neighborhood. If you do not have a 4WD or you do not want to deal with an insensitive company, I'd suggest another rental.

We stayed here in December which is a busy time of year. Everything was great. Unfortunately during our stay the fireplace didn’t work, but we were aware of it before hand. The mini fridge downstairs didn’t work and had bad gas fumes that would smell the area if you open it. Because of the time of year there were lady bugs everywhere, but we didn’t mind it because they are harmless, no other encounters with other bugs. Other than that WE LOVED THE CABIN. They had a Christmas tree up & Christmas decor throughout the cabin so 10/10!

We enjoyed our stay in the cabin. It was wonderful and couldn’t have chosen a better one. We plan to return as it totally fit our family’s needs. Just beautiful. We were impressed with the amount of well stocked essentials such as toilet paper, soaps, shampoos, etc. you usually don’t see that anymore. Bathroom towels were plentiful and soft. The game room was stocked with many different games, board as well as standing such as shuffleboard, ping pong, air hockey, pop a shot and video. Made for a lot of family fun. We were visited by a bear in the mornings and just had a wonderful time. My only wish is that they would allow pets. I had to leave my little boy home but I do understand not wanting pets.

Definitely some steep hills getting up the mountain and about 45 minutes to downtown gatlinburg but the drive is fast and beautiful. Beware of fog at night it’s super scary to drive through the narrow steep roads with nothing on the sides of the roads like guard rails. Unfortunately it took us awhile to get in the door and I didn’t like that the fireplace didn’t shut off bc I had a toddler with me but after a few hours communicating I was told how to shut the constant gas off and had a great time! Thank you!

This cabin was beautiful. Beautiful views from the balconies. We saw a mama bear and her 4 cubs cross the road in front of the house and go down to the woods beside the house the very first day. But they never bothered us. The setup of the house was perfect for our multi-generation family of 9. Bedroom for the grandparents on the main floor, a bedroom at each end of the upper floor for the adult children, and also bedrooms at each end of the bottom floor for the grandkids with lots of activities in between like air hockey, shuffleboard, pool, and ping pong. This was a wonderful place to stay for our trips to Dollywood, the Smoky Mountains National Park, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg.
