Great stay!
We enjoyed this cabin for our weekend getaway. Great location, only 5-10 to town. Driveway is very steep and only ideal for 1 car. We seen tons of bears around this area and even had one break into our car in the middle of the night lol. The only negative about the cabin was the upstairs railing isn’t ideal for toddlers. They could easily fit between it and fall. Overall great cabin!

Old, pieced together!
Cabin floor is not level, with several trip hazards. Not recommended for elderly or young kids.You can not walk or open any door in cabin without waking up everybody else. Master bed old and very uncomfortable. Better off sleeping on the floor. Tried using the hideaway bed, it was broke and rat droping on the mattress. There a is a difference between rustic and run down. This cabin is ran down.

In the woods
We enjoyed staying in the woods , yet really close to town… Property manager was very responsive to the couple issues we had that got resolved quickly. This property is located in the area with steep hills and steep driveways. The black bear love this area so if you are hoping to see black bears this is a great choose as well. We loved the front porch and hot tub and grilled out twice during the week.

Location, Location, location!
Our party ranged from age 20 to 48. It was great that it was close it Gatlinburg, SMNP, and Pigeon Forge. The pool table and hot tub were a nice addition. Getting to see bears around the property and neighborhood was awesome! We highly reccomend visiting the Chimney Tops picnic area to fish and play in the creek! Overall this was a great homebase. The upstairs floor is creaky so that its difficult to sleep if those upstairs stay up later or wake up earlier than those downstairs. The dehumidifier needs to be emptied both morning and night if you want to keep the humidity low in the summer. Probably better to arrive when its still light outside. But once again it was an excellent home base in a great location!!

Mountain Side Cabin
Had a great week at this cabin with our adult children. Short drive into Gatlinburg and Smoky Mountain NP. Access to owner's club facilities was nice. Cooking on the gas grill was definitely a plus. Great communication with the owner. Saw lots of bears in the area but no close encounters. Steep driveway, but plenty of space to turn the car around at the top.

Great Stay
Wonderful place. Comfortable stay without a doubt, the porch is relaxing with the rocking chairs and side porch with a great sit down area. The stairs can be a lot especially for elderly or knee or hip issues. I would recommend bringing condiments like sugar, coffee, water, etc… Also wasn’t a good amount of towels, I hope this finds the right people looking for this wonderful place to stay because it was amazing right outside the small town of gatlinburg

My family of 6 adults from 20 to 47 yrs old stayed here this past week. We loved everything about this cabin. It was clean and well stocked with the everyday things needed. The host was very accommodating and quick with communication if needed. I would definitely recommend and would book again if we are able to come back to Gatlinburg.

Couples Get a Way
We recently stayed at this property for 6 nights. Our main goal for this vacation was to enjoy the Great Smokey Mountains. This property is less than 10 minutes from the Sugarland Visitors Center, which is located at the edge of town (Gatlinburg). The house is spacious and well appointed. We very much enjoyed sitting on the front porch every morning and evening, and also enjoyed the hot tub! Communication with the owner was amazing and much appreciated. I accidently left a drawer full of clothing, which was promptly mailed to me. One word of caution though, the driveway has a very steep incline so be sure your vehicle and the driver have enough balls to get up it! :) All in all, we had a fabulous stay in this home and enjoyed much of the GSM, Gatlinburg and PF.

Amazing Cabin, Cleanliness is Great
We loved this cabin in the mountains for our 8 day stay with my husband, stepson, and brother in law. We saw 6 bears within 24 hours of being in the neighborhood. The hot tub is an added bonus and the entire place is clean -- something I struggle greatly with when it comes to staying at new places. Communication with property owners were great when necessary -- which was only in the beginning of our stay to warn us about bears. We will definitely be back and were sad to leave. Highly recommended on my list!!

Responsive and Attentive Host
The cabin is exactly as described and a very nice place to stay. It was cleanly and well stocked with the necessities. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to use the hot tub but at no fault of the owner. He was extremely helpful and attentive to try and have it fixed and very accommodating when it was unable to be so. Super nice person and replied to any questions in a very timely manner. We would absolutely stay here in the future and 10/10 recommend to anyone that is able to climb stairs!! Also loved playing pool on the pool table while there 😁

Great Cabin and location
Great views and location to Ober Resort and to Gatlinburg. Driveway is very steep and a lot of steps. Hot tub could not be serviced due to weather and freezing during our stay. It’s a wonderful cabin but I would recommend more than one trash bag for garbage. Other than that it was a wonderful cabin and wonderful host and wonderful stay. Just have to be careful when it freezes. Clean and secluded.

The drive up wasn’t as bad as I thought. The mountains were scary but it wasn’t like I thought in my head. The property was easy to get to and it was right down from the town of gatlinburg, very convenient. Will definitely be going back again!! The property owner was very helpful and was great about keeping in touch.

Very uncomfortable and dirty
It’s really old and hasn’t been kept up at all. The kitchen sink leaks , dryer didn’t work, it was dirty . The dishwasher was full of dishes from previous guests. Chimney was clogged (even the firewood delivery guy said hisself) roof leaks , porch and outside furniture is rotting. Your being watched while in the hot tub. The porch outback is full of leaves that will have you slipping on your butt. Band aids on the baseboards, dust is so thick on the ceiling fans and decorations. Black mold on the towel racks and on the back of the doors. You can almost fall through rotted floor boards on the front porch. Honestly, I should be getting my money back . It was definitely the most stressful time when it was supposed to be the most wonderful time since we were on vacation at Christmas time. Housekeeping and the host does NOT keep up on this cabin.

Awesome cabin!
We were only here a night, for a quick weekend getaway, but would definitely come back! Very cozy spot with nothing but quiet around. The driveway is steep, as are the roads leading to it, but my newer RAV4 handled them ok in summer even with rain. The host is very friendly and helpful, and even sent some cool bear footage from the cabin to us.

If you want to see bears this is the property for you. We had two visit us during our stay. House is tucked into the hillside. Owner mentioned a steep driveway and that is correct with two parking spots. Comfortable beds, wifi. and laundry a plus. Comfortable for our family of 6.

Great Cabin! Great location! Great owner! Great trip
My family and I had an amazing time. The cabin was exactly as described. The owner was great with communicating. The house cabin was exactly as described. It’s definitely a real cabin! We definitely saw bears everyday, although they mostly just walked through the property. The only warning I would give is “the roads up the mountain are not for the faint of heart” they are well maintained and safe, but they are steep and narrow at parts. I would definitely stay here again.

Why they chose this property

We have discovered that Gatlinburg is one of the most unique places . It borders the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. And it exhibits a mountain character that is preserved in time. Our home is located on a mountainside in the city limits called Chalet Village. This village contains hundreds of unique chalets and log homes. Every home is unique in its design. This has been the perfect area to own a home
