If your not into complete quietness and amazing mountain views, this is not the place for you. The night sky is littered with millions of stars and the only sound uou hear is your own voice. 5 star cabin for the whole family.

PERFECT!

Absolutely perfect cabin! Spacious, clean and fully stocked, located close enough to all of the activities to enjoy them without the long haul back to the cabin afterwards. They even had Christmas decorations up, really just making it even more adorable! We brought our pets with us as well, and there is a completely contained porch you and your dogs can enjoy without any fears of them running off. I wish I was still there! We will be staying there from now on!

Wonderful Experience

Our family of 5 (kids aged 8, 4, and 2) stayed at this property and had a wonderful time. The property owner sent us all the information right away and checked in with us throughout our stay. The cabin is exactly as advertised and very spacious for a family our size. My kids loved the hot tub and the game room! The beds were comfortable and all the basics were provided that we needed for the stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful and quiet

Rented it for a little weekend getaway for my husband’s birthday. It’s pet friendly, so we could bring our dog, which was awesome! The cabin is about 8 min drive up the hills from the main road, and even though there’s a bunch of them around, it was still very quiet and nice. It had a fully equipped kitchen (even baking supplies and a crock pot), a hot tub that seats 4, a cool game room, 2 bedrooms and a swing on the porch that I personally enjoyed every morning=) The driveway is very steep and it was a little problematic one night after the rain (mostly because it was also covered in leaves and we have a tiny sedan). Dustin did a great job giving us very specific instructions on the best way to get up the driveway. Dustin is a great host. He made sure to leave us very detailed instructions on how to get to the property, the stores around, etc. And he checked on us on the second day to make sure we had everything we needed. We had a really great time and would totally recommend it to anyone looking for a cute place to stay in the mountains, that’s still not far from Gatlinburg.

Slice of heaven

We had an amazing stay in the house in Gatlinburg, it was a cozy home nestled nicely up in the mountains. We loved sitting by the fire in the evenings warming our toes after soaking in the hot tub. One of our funnest activities was playing the table shuffle board located in the game room at the house, took my wife and I back to some of our "beginnings". Dustin, the host, is AMAZING, he was so kind to provide us with a surprised trophy for my wife and I's shuffleboard competition which was sooo much fun. I can't say enough wonderful things about the host, his communication and attention to all the details is second to none. The neighborhood is great with paved roads all the way up the the cabin. We were lucky enough to see a few bears on the way up to the cabin on a few different occasions, never at the cabin. We enjoyed playing the golf corse located at the foot of the mountain which was tranquil and beautiful. We will definitely rent this home again, I highly recommend it to anyone with a smaller family or to a couple who just needs a tranquil get away. We LOVED it ❤️ Thank you Dustin !!!!!!

Beautiful cabin with the best location

The pictures of this cabin doesn’t do it justice. It’s so beautiful and so clean. It has a welcome home feel to it. The view is breathtaking and the hot tube was a perfect touch to help relax. My girls 13 & 8 loved their loft area and the arcade game. It was just the perfect vacation spot and was close to everything. Loved being located middle of everything we wanted to do. The host really made us feel important by checking in on us and making sure we were having a great stay. I have already recommended this place to my parents who will be visiting Gatlinburg in the spring.

Great Experience

The cabin was very nice, the kitchen was surprisingly stocked with everything you would keep at home as far as dishes and even some basic spices. What stood out to me the most through our stay was the level of communication offered by the owners Dustin and his wife. Prior to arriving we had a few questions about the place and he was very responsive. We were there during the effects of Helene, and at one point the road out was flooded, we were concerned we weren't gonna be able to leave on our scheduled day so we reached out, they were amazing to work with and very understanding. They are good people! Would stay here again in a second

Blissful hideaway high-up in the Smokey’s

Perfect cabin with all the mod cons and conveniences for a relaxed stay. Host’s communication from start to finish was great. Cabin was clean, comfortable and all amenities were in good working order. There is not much flat surface area around the cabin to walk a dog but we found a wonderful dog park within 15 min drive that our doggie enjoyed and we got to meet some super friendly locals. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to book this property again.

Family Fun Friendly and an Escape from the World

We loved this home away from home! Whether eating, talking or playing games we loved being around the large table surrounded by windows. The hot tub was a favorite spot for our family after a long morning of hiking. Upstairs was perfect for my son and his friend as they could play on the arcade game or watch television. The road and driveway leading to the house was daunting the evening we arrived but each day we felt more comfortable with the steep incline. Our only complaint was the limited amounts of toilet paper, trash bags, dish washer soap left in the home for us to use. On the other hand, there were plenty of extra blankets and pillows. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great Cabin but Tons of Construction

The cabin was very cool and looked as advertised on the inside, the drive up is windy but Dustin was very thorough with directions and gave a fair warning about how steep and windy the road is. It wasn’t a bad drive at all, just something to consider if you’re a more cautious driver. The part that I was not pleased with was the massive amount of construction and debris everywhere around the cabin. There was a house being built right in front of our cabin and directly in the line of sight of our nice view. It resulted in loud noises, tons of debris and trash everywhere, construction workers walking around the property that could see directly into bedroom areas, and an noisier atmosphere when I was expecting more of a quiet getaway. When I informed Dustin he took the issues seriously but wasn’t able to do much about it. It is understandable that he cannot control or influence construction for a house that he does not manage, but it was disappointing for this to not be mentioned in the listing for transparency in booking. The listing has since been updated to include this so it’s great to see Dustin take action to correct that immediately. Overall I’d stay here again but would be more cautious about potential construction.

First Time Tennessee Getaway

The host, Dustin, was exceptional! Questions asked were responded to in a more than timely manner. The description of the home, drive up the mountain and surrounding area were extremely accurate. The house was in impeccable condition, all furniture and decorations are up to date. Everything you need for your stay is available in the house. All appliances, accessories and a grill were available. The hot tub and game room were nice touches to the home. It’s about a 15 minute drive to Food City for groceries with a Starbucks inside, gas station and Dollar General close by. It’s a 20 to 30 minute drive to the Gatlinburg strip and a 40 to 50 minute drive to Pigeon Forge. The house did not disappoint.
