Wonderful Location with Everything We Needed

This property was the perfect size for our family outing, with 2 large, comfortable beds. The kitchen was well-appointed and updated. The home was clean and well-laid out. The hot tub, porch (with rocking chairs), and creekside fire pit were nice bonuses. The location was great, walkable to the east end of downtown. Access to the park was good, despite the downtown traffic. Communication with the property manager was very good, although we had no problems that required their attention. Overall, it was exactly what we were looking for. We had a wonderful time!

Beware its ran by Agency - Must provide copy of drivers license

I would not rent from them again mostly because they require a copy of your drivers license. Sorry but I don't really trust a small rental agency to keep my drivers license information secure. They will also blow you up with texts and emails. I stayed for 3 days and got 7 texts and 6 emails from them so far. The house itself was fine and had no problems at all with it.

Perfect home away from home

My husband and I stayed here for a week to celebrate our 10 year anniversary while visiting Gatlinburg. It was absolutely perfect. Everything was clean and felt nice. Check in process was very simple as was check out. It’s close to downtown but still far enough to feel like you’re away from all the hustle and bustle. We would absolutely love to stay here when we decide to visit the area again.
