Spacious House with Beautiful Views

This house was fantastic for our 3-generation trip. Our host was incredibly communicative and came out quickly when we reached out about the hot tub and garbage disposal. The layout worked well for 4 couples and 5 kids (10-16 years old.) The house requires about 15 minutes to drive down from, so you should always plan for an approximately 25-45 minute drive to almost anywhere (Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, etc.) The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking some meals at the house. The porch and hot tub area were great for enjoying the beautiful views and weather.

Christmas Family Vacation

We were extremely pleased with our stay. Checked in on Sunday and stayed the entire week of Christmas. We had zero complaints. The cabin was very well stocked. We didn’t need any necessities, only food items we wanted. More than enough towels for our family of 13, plenty of toilet paper, and paper towels. Can’t say enough positive things about this cabin and the host!

Fantastic Smoky Mountain Cabin!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Absolutely stunning cabin! Although the road up the mountain is intimidating, the end result is SO worth it!The cabin is in great shape. Very clean. Incredibly well-stocked kitchen in terms of utensils, place settings, small appliances, etc. Gas and electric fireplaces in multiple locations adds to the ambiance, and very nicely decorated for Christmas right now. Lovely bedrooms, and a perfect room for all the boy cousins in our group downstairs. The views from the porch are amazing, and if weather cooperates, it's a lovely place to hang out.20-ish minutes to the Parkway, but you'll pass two mountain coasters along the way. Wear's Valley is about the same distance, with a number of restaurants and shops. A bit longer into the park at the Metcalf Bottoms entrance, and perhaps an hour to Cades Cove.Responsive owner, but no issues to deal with. 10/10 would stay here again!

Perfect Getaway

This property was gorgeous and secluded. The view was more than i could have ever asked for and made for the perfect backdrop for the surprise proposal my boyfriend had. The kids were entertained and we barely left the property because everything we needed was right there. Would definitely stay there again!

Beary Interesting

It’s a lovely property, but not for the faint of heart! First be aware that if you haven’t driven in the mountains you might be a little freaked out by the turns in the road to reach the property - arriving in the dark definitely raised my blood pressure. Obviously not the owner’s fault! Twice during our stay there was a bear on the front deck of the main floor. Be very careful about locking your cars and not leaving anything out. It would have been nice if the two main floor bedrooms would have had a small dresser for clothes storage. The view is breathtaking!

Game room and kids bedrooms were very kid friendly. 3 other bedrooms were nice. The loft queen bed was utilized. Massive porch with great views. Hot tub utilized with plenty of towels. Close family could sleep 15-16 people. 8 kids in game room/bedroom area. The community pool/tennis/pickleball/basketball was enjoyed by all. gated community gave a secure feeling. Parking sufficient for 4-5 cars with turnaround for easier exit. Not sure we could find anything better. Would rent again in a heartbeat.

Nice cozy place. Too many check out requirements

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely time at this place. It’s cozy and beautiful and comfortably slept three families. There were a few things lacking, such as no kitchen towels, available, which made it hard to hand, wash our breakfast dishes in the morning and put them away in order to leave by checkout time, as was the requirement. Having to get all dishes washed and put away and all beach towels washed and put back felt like something the cleaning service should do that we’re paying for as part of the rental fee. Other than those things, it was a lovely place to stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our overall experience at "Can't Bear To Leave" was a delight. For the second time, we felt at home and enjoyed the beautiful view, weather and superb accomodations. We plan to return for a Christmas Cabin getway in December.One matter we felt you needed to be aware of. The bed linens in one bedroom on the main floor had not been laundered very well. There was stain and body hair on the fitted sheet. Those assigned to the room simply removed them, washed them, and exchanged them with the bedding in the loft area. We know you are very attentive to your property and it's care, so we felt it was right to make you aware.
