Great Location!

The house was conveniently located near town. We drive a dually and were able to park it in the provided spot. Our big boys loved the back yard and hunting for lizards in the wooded area. The house was comfortable and had the necessary necessities. The outside grill is a park style so no smoking meat or lid to close. If you stay for any length of time, you will need condiments, seasonings, foils, tupperware ziploc bags, etc. We were in town for our Anniversary & Car show. Sadly at the last minute we decided not trailer our car, but thankful we didn't. There is no room to park a car trailer.

Comfy Cabin

Overall, the property was good for what we needed. The backyard was very large and had a nice fire pit. Bring your own wood because it’s not provided. The bonus is the yard is fenced in so that our dogs could run free. There are a few issues with the inside of the property such as there were no hangers, beach towels, or extra blankets for the pullout couch. It’s a dog friendly property which was nice but it didn’t seem like they washed the top comforters because there was quite a bit of dog hair on them from the previous renter’s pet(s). Also, there no screens on any of the windows, so you can’t open them for some fresh air. We enjoyed the hot tub even though it took a while to heat up and not all the jets worked. Having a washer and a dryer in the cabin was very convenient. Probably the best feature is the location. You had a great view of the mountains, but you were still close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.

Not impressed

Once we got to the cabin, it looked nice and clean but when I unpacked my bags and got settled in I realized that the floor had not been swept good. There was short black dog hair everywhere. Then we realized we didn’t have any blankets for 2 of our beds. I reached out to the host via VRBO with no response. I reached out to the 800# provided. The man I spoke to said he would create me a ticket and someone would contact me that night. No one contacted me so my family and friends had to go to sleep with no blanket the first night. Still no contact on the second day so I sent a very ugly text to a 800# I found. They apologized and said they would send my message to the team. When I got to my cabin the second night, we had blankets inside the door. We just made the best of it the rest of the week.

Gatlinburg Spring Break

Lovely cabin with an excellent location. So close to downtown, Just a quick drive. Loved how quiet, loved the deck, loved the backyard. Couch was comfy, kitchen was well stocked and the table nook was great for our family of five. A few things I’d update are new queen mattresses, new comforters or quilts on the queen beds, one bunk was missing a blanket, only had a sheet. No big deal for us as my kids bring blankets everywhere. The headboard in the downstairs bedroom does not lend itself to laying against and watching tv. If you bring kids, one thing to note is the loft is completely open to the downstairs and the upstairs bedroom is not private either. It has wooden shutters that open to the downstairs and you can hear everything below and see light. It would make sense to put kids in the downstairs room as it’s the only bedroom that’s truly private/blocked to the rest of the house. My husband and I couldn’t sit and watch tv in the living room once kids went to bed as they could hear everything. Regardless, we loved our stay and the location and quiet space with very few if any neighbors in view was perfect. Still 5 stars for us. Communication with Vacasa was seamless and they helped with all our needs very quickly. Kids loved hot tub. Stove was great and worked well. All appliances new and clean. Cabin was very clean.

Loved the yard for the dog

Yard, layout of the house, and proximity to Gatlinburg was great. Hot tub cover doesn’t secure, so it had blown open and hot tub was full of leaves and dirt when we got there. Was cleaned the next day, but we lost using it for 2 of our 3 nights there. Upstairs mattress really needs replaced - it sags in the middle and is not comfortable. There weren’t any sheets on the upstairs bed, the dishwasher was full of dishes, and the house could have been a bit cleaner. Overall a great stay and a nice place. Would stay again.

Christmas stay

The cabin itself was okay. Location was probably the best part overall. Beds were uncomfortable to sleep in. It definitely needs a good cleaning because there was a lot of dust especially in the ceiling and fans. They had a couple of board games but they are quite old so maybe get new ones. TVs were horrible to operate. I'm not sure if it was the controllers or the tvs but they took forever to work. I appreciate the fact that it was decorated for Christmas.

It gets the job done.

The location is great for Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge activities and the backyard space is good for your dog, during the day. There is not enough light or a flashlight provided for after dark. The house wasn’t on the surface dirty but it is in need of a deep cleaning. Cobwebs on the popcorn ceilings & piles of dust and hair visible behind the downstairs bed. We encountered a couple bugs in less than desirable places (nightstand & on the kitchen counter). The house is fine for a couple but I wouldn’t recommend for anyone traveling with small kids or those with differing bedtimes. 2/3 bedrooms are open to the downstairs, either loft or with shades (some broken) that open to the downstairs letting in light & every sound made. While not a necessity, this is the first of many rentals I’ve stayed in that haven’t had basic instructions for things like the TVs, check out info etc.

Great location and awesome yard

My family and I enjoyed every minute of our stay. Very clean home! Pet friendly but you would never have know, no hair, no accident smell, etc. and they also had left a little doggy bone container with treats in it. My dogs loved hanging in the yard and lying on the porch. We would definitely stay there again

Moonshine is great in the moonlight

This was our first time in Tennessee. We even got to see a bear or two! Loved all the attractions, especially Margaritaville and the moonshine place on the island. Our dog loved the fenced in yard and we all loved our relaxful stay, especially the hot tub and firepit. Host was great! Would definitely stay here again. Home was clean and accommodating and peaceful. Have to go to Chocolate Monkey, they have everything you could ever dream of. They are dog friendly and even have ice cream! Try the Tennessee Whisky one, so delicious!

Wonderful stay with family & dogs

This cabin is located so close to everything in Gatlinburg but is also hidden up the mountain-side so you get the best of both worlds. The drive up and finding it was easy. We loved all the charming decor. The cabin was perfect for our family & dogs. The kitchen was stocked with pots, pans, utensils and a coffee maker, the bedrooms had extra blankets and there was even a hair dryer & travel soaps & shampoos. Fenced-in backyard is perfect for dogs. Check-in & check-out was super easy. Would definitely stay here again.

Got the Job Done

The first impression was that it was very cute. We loved that we were able to bring our dogs and have a fenced yard for them to run in. The home could have been cleaner. There were a few cobwebs and the carpet on the stairs had stains. We also would have liked more than one small bar of soap for each bathroom and we were running low on toilet paper. The yard was great, plenty of room. We enjoyed our stay.

Pittsburgh get together

We had a great stay at Aria. Every thing about the house was perfect. Very spacious and was awesome for our pooch with the fenced back yard. The location was great only 1.2 miles from downtown Gaitlinburg. The fire pit was a hit every night. The only downside side was the tv and getting live tv. Overall we would definitely stay there again

Why

Why would you rent a cabin with a broken air conditioner? Keep putting freon in it til it breaks totally instead of fixing it on the first place. As we were on vacation we really didn't appreciate the constant interruptions by the AC people. We rented the cabin because we brought our 2 dogs,not knowing the grass was 2 feet tall,only to have the owner come to interrupt us and mow at the end of week. The $200 refund was hardly enough to compensate for a miserable vacation.

Hot tub did not work and phone number provided for troubleshooting was not in service. When we did get in touch with someone from the company, they said they would send someone out the next day, but didn’t. The downstairs tub was grimy. When the upstairs shower/tub was used, water dripped into the bedroom downstairs. The fenced in back yard was really good for the dogs. It was very close to the main Gatlinburg area.
