Very nice cabin and location
We had a good time, it was comfortable enough for three people. The beds were clean and good mattresses. My only criticism, is that once we reached the cabin, the hostess was not available. I had the courtesy of letting her know about a few things that needed care, but no answer from her.

Good value
Not accessible for handicap or walker. Two steps up to entrance. Floor inside extremely uneven and spongy in places. No drip coffee maker or firewood provided. (That's fine but not told that ahead). It's at least 40 minutes to Gatlinburg, not 30. The porch was a nice place to relax. The setting was quiet and woodsy.
The beds were really comfortable. The cabin was clean and very pretty.

Just Okay
The good part is that the property is close to Gatlinburg and good hikes. The bad is that the property is pretty close to the main road and you can hear the cars all day and there are dogs that bark up the road 24/7. Cleanliness was okay. The bathroom had cobwebs and the towels had some stains and the bed had an old bandaid stuck to the sheets.
This little gem was the perfect getaway for the 2 of us and our little fur baby! The interior of the cabin looks like something out of a magazine. Our host was wonderful and very responsive. We loved it!
We loved the place. Only thing we didnt enjoy was the raccoon hounds up the hill howling and barking almost 24/7.
Everything was very clean and working properly.
Because the leaves were just beginning to fall. This super cute and cozy log cabin was the perfect getaway. Jacuzzi was warm and ready to go when we got there and there were so many little nice touches. We will definitely be back!!!
Where do i begin?. It was absolutely stinking cute! Gorgeous view, beautiful area and beyond breathtaking with everything. Stacy was very communicative thorough out everything. Definitely would stay here again.
We really enjoyed this little cabin, had everything we needed was not too far from restaurants and stores. Within 30 minutes from Gatlinburg. I loved seeing the Christmas lights. Stacy was very helpful and the maintenance man was extremely helpful in navigating around the area. We didn’t get too used the hot tub because of an issue but it was a great place to get away for a few days. Would definitely recommend.
The cabin in secluded for anyone who just want to get away.Had to speak with manager about posibly changing date for a medical condition and she was willing to accommodate but we didnt have to . THE CABIN: Very seculded code was sent to get in. Just to let you know you are seculded so no wifi. Unable to watch tv in either bedrooms have to watch DVDs. Lets talk about the sofa bed. Pulled it out and the mattress is 1/2 inch thick and frame of head was broke. Family said it was so hard to sleep on the floor was better. THE BATHROOM: the tub and shower needs to be replaced. We refuse to shower becuse it has a permanent dirty stain didn't know if was clean or not. Beds were very uncomfortable need new mattresses. And. When it rains the porch and stairs are very slipper several of us almost fell. We did enjoy our visit.
We LOVED our time at the cozy cabin. We were able to contact both our property manager and our Innkeeper to extend our stay because we loved our time so much! We were able to find stores close by for any grocery needs,we were able to drive through the smokies on a few different trails, and we LOVED that we could bring our dogs with us. They loved the comfort of nature sounds versus a dog friendly hotel in a tourist attraction. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us! We hope to be back soon! Be sure to check out Carver Orchard and make time to eat there too!
We booked this cabin for one night to extend a short trip to the area we had with family. We wanted to stay an extra day from the rest of them and found this little gem! It was everything we look for in a cabin. The location was away from hustle and bustle, very quiet. The cabin is perfectly sized for our family of 6 (My wife and I, kids ages 15,10,3,1). The cabin has everything you would need to cook meals and spend time without having to lug all the accessories of a home. The jacuzzi was already heated and ready when we arrived which was great after a week spent hiking (and carrying kids) through the mountains. It has an on site charcoal grill and firepit we unfortunately didnt get to use but are very nice to have for a longer stay. All in all, it was an extremely comfortable and cozy cabin, perfect if your looking for a stay in the mountains away from City life. We will definitely remember it for the next time we visit the area.
Everything was wonderful! I would add a consideration, we were unable to enjoy the hot tub the first night because it was not heated up. We were looking forward to that on the way there. Maybe turn it on and up the night before.
Thanks very much, it was a much needed quiet time for us!!
This is an exceptionally beautiful cabin. It was very clean and decorated nicely. They put extra care in making it feel welcoming. There were extra touches they made to make it cuteness overload. 😍. Its located 40 minutes from Gatlinburg and worth the drive. We planned our activities accordingly. It's secluded, but an easy drive there. It was very affordable. Probably a third of the price than other cabins in Gatlinburg and Sevierville. The property manager responded immediately when I had a question. Our dog, Maxx, loved it also. It had a nice yard for him to play frisbee. We will definitely be staying here again.
