The property was great. Met all expectations for our family vacation with a group of 16. The rooms and layout were as pictured, the location was great, very short drive to downtown Pigeon Forge and right by Dollywood. It is right in the mountains, so definitely need to use caution for bears. We had a visit by a bear in the driveway within our first hour, so keep watch on the kiddos, especially if going to extra room, which is accessed from separate, outside entrance.

Great weekend get-away with family

My family takes an annual mid March weekend get-away to remember our mother. We usually struggle to get a good, comfortable and affordable cabin that fits 15 or so (kids and adults). Since Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg have become a vacation Mecca for folks around the world, it gets harder and harder every year. We are thankful we found yours. Everyone loved the cabin and we had a pleasant stay. Thank you!

Family Winter Trip

Overall we had a wonderful experience at the cabin and there was tons of room for everyone. Just a couple of notes: Some of the bedroom TVs need to be upgraded to smart tvs so everyone can watch TV in their rooms. The hot tub appeared to have not been cleaned and trash was left on the upstairs deck from previous guests.

Good stay, some issues

Owners were very prompt to respond to any concerns or questions we had. House was very clean, no bugs inside. We only had a few minor complaints. First, there was no extra garbage bags. Because the house hosts a large group, you would expect there to be additional garbage bags. When we asked about it, they said the previous renters probably took the extras, but I don’t feel like that is a valid excuse. The cleaning company should be replacing them after each stay. We also did not have remotes for 3 of the bedrooms TVs. There was very limited supply of toilet paper and soap. Again because this hosts a large group, and it is advertised as having basic soaps and supplies, there should be a lot more of each. If we had not brought our own, we would have definitely run out. Lastly, the picture of the hot tub is a little misleading . The hot tub is actually located right next to the side of a hill in a closed-in corner of the deck, which made it very dark and damp. There were a ton of bugs and spider webs around it because of its location. It also was slightly grimy. Aside from these problems, our stay was good and we would consider booking here again in the future.

Partial Renovated House & NO View from house VERY steep driveway

Property does need some real good cleaning. There is spider web everywhere on property. Outside lightening is really poor at night. They try to put amenities to put on listing but not any meaningful use. Driveway is too steep and long not safe at all for front wheel drive cars or vans in ANY season. If you book this house, you need a four wheel drive vehicle. Property is surrounded by tall trees and there is no view from this place. Hot Tub is in back of house in small dark space which practically no view. I think he just put there to advertise it rather than actually usable Hot Tub. It was advertised as Game room was there but No game room is available in working condition. It is dark and pool table is not in playable condition. I think it is not even worth to visit it. We all had two wheel drive and it is not safe to go upwards in rain as it is slipping the tires. It should be mentioned in listing which was missing as it mentioned only steep driveway. It is not even safe without rain to go up with two wheel drive. It looks somebody is trying to renovate but did partial job. Somebody did partial job at upgrading house without paying attentions to details. As we can not open windows as it did not have screens on it. Windows are not usable. I feel like House was speedy done to get advantage to rent out quickly so there are so many small details which usual house owners pay attentions too. For Example Panelling is different in each rooms without matching colors with some raw wood and some colors. When I mentioned this to owner, he offered me $100 back which we did not take. I feel like that is wrong practice. Dollywood is 3 miles away but you can only hear fireworks and not able to see it.

We had the best time staying at this property! It was spacious and clean. Plenty of beds/bedrooms/bathrooms for 6 adults and 10 kids. It was literally like 3 minutes to Dollywood. The kids loved hanging out in the game room. Three of the bedrooms have attached bathrooms. The host was so kind and easy to get in touch with if we had a question. Would stay here again!
