This place was fantastic. Little touches all around to make the stay comfortable. My teen boys loved it and my husband and I did too! Super clean, plenty of space and so much fun in the game room. Views are great, saw Dollywood fireworks every night. Saw a bear and her cubs on the side of the property too! Would absolutely stay again!

Beautiful property

It was absolutely a beautiful property. We spent Christmas there and they had it decorated for Christmas. Very cozy and super comfortable furniture. The only negative was how cold it was downstairs where the movie theater and game room was. They did have a space heater and it kept the bedroom warm but it wasn’t big enough for the game room.

Could not have asked for a better place to stay!

Beautiful cabin with lots of amenities! Great views of the Smoky Mountains. We saw a bear in the neighborhood and a mountain lion from the living room window. The beds were SUPER comfortable. The whole place was spotless. All the boys (16, 16, and 5) loved the game room. We felt removed from the craziness of downtown but still able to conveniently drive to town when we wanted. Just a few minutes away from SMNP with clear views of the NP from the cabin. Our host were easy to work with and it was a smooth check-in, check-out process. Will definitely be staying here again!

Great house, great location, crazy road

The road up to the property is not for the faint of heart but once up there its worth the drive. The house was clean and had everything we needed for me, my husband, 2 college age kids, & 1 teen. The pool table & fooseball were a hit. We saw a few bears in the neighborhood (from our vehicle). The views are amazing. The Gaitlenburg Trolly is right at the bottom of the mountain on the parkway just a short drive to Pigeon Forge & Dollywood. The location is perfect for whatever your plans are in the Smoky Mountains.

What a view! We chose this cabin because of the location on top of the ridge with 2 decks and a patio and then fell in love with everything else it provided for our 3 night stay. The place looks brand new with 2 master suites on 2 floors plus another full bedroom/bath in the basement walkout with 2 queen beds, game room and movie room. Furnished kitchen as part of the family room with fireplace and vaulted ceiling. Absolutely perfect! We spent the evenings after dinner in town, sitting in rockers on ehe deck taking in the amazing view across the huge valley with stars and lights from town and other houses. The best part wa hearing the rain one evening on the metal roof. The host was very accommodating and fast to respond to questions. They even gave us a heads up on the weather and 2 methods of driving up/down the mountain as needed. Very conveniently located for both ends of Gatlinburg access. I’m sure you will love it too!

Loved our stay!

This house was gorgeous. Yes, the road is windy, steep, and narrow but it's a mountain road so that is to be expected . The only reason I even mentioned it is because other reviews I read prior to booking had made a big deal about it. We made it in an Equinox and a minivan. You do have neighbors but it really wasn't bad and we didn't see/hear them. The sunsets from the decks are beautiful and at night you can see the Dollywood fireworks off in the distance. There were bears, every single day. Day 1 I hadn't locked my car yet and a bear opened my door and got in. Luckily no damage so we can laugh about it. The property manager was awesome and sent me the Ring footage of it. We saw several tourists not being smart and following bears with cameras. Don't be that guy. Everything was clean and the house was spacious. The kids absolutely loved the game room downstairs. It was a 15 minute drive to pigeon forge and maybe 10 minutes to Gatlinburg. Most of that time is spent going down the mountain. The only thing I can think of that it's lacking is a few extra kitchen items. There are pots and pans, plates, cups, utensils but It could benefit for some mixing bowls and Tupperware.

Beautiful cabin, mountain views

The property was beautiful and Eric communicated promptly. The road up the mountain was definitely more narrow than we expected, with steep cliffs, but the views were worth it. We also had bears visit us at checkout when loading our cooler in the car. It was equally amazing to be so close to nature, and wild! Be prepared for a full experience when visiting. The cabin was like new, super clean and beautiful. Kids loved the game room and it was a relaxing trip.
