Great location & perfect for large groups
The Big Poplar Retreat has a lot of room for larger groups to stay and have their own space. Kitchen is fully stocked, more than enough towels and blankets, they supply dish soap, dishwasher tablets, sponges, shampoo, conditioner and soap. Only thing I will note is that it advertises they have "hair dryer" and there is only one in the unit when the unit will sleep over 60 people. We never found the one hairdryer but luckily someone else brought one. Also the kitchenette downstairs is not stocked with anything other than a tea towel, sponge and dish soap. No dishes, cups, glasses or silverware so you would need to bring down from main floor kitchen. Other than that, the place was perfect for our needs. Thanks Vacasa for another great stay! We have stayed in this area for 3 years in a row and not sure we will go anywhere else.

More than a place to sleep.
This property was the perfect location for an annual office retreat. The accommodations were more than enough for our visit to Gatlinburg. Located within a short walk to downtown with a shorter walk to a trolley stop. This was very convenient for taking in restaurants and shopping without the hassle of attempting to park on the main strip. The house is beautiful with cabin themed decor throughout.

Sistare family WINTER vacation
Location was GREAT. We were able to walk to and from the downtown main area of Gatlinburg, even the 4 year old. Watched the fireworks on New Years Eve from our deck with a great view. Large Gathering Room on main level with kitchen/dining area was great for our large group. We had a few minor problems but as soon as we notified the manager the problems were immediately taken care of. We recommend this to large groups and we look forward to going again soon.

Beautiful home, with some flaws
It’s a great home with a fantastic layout and ideal for large parties. It looks as advertised. The kids loved the bunk beds, the video games, and the movie room. We all loved the living room and backyard deck for the families to hang out. We saw a bear cub walk between cabins to the backyard on our first night! However, it is not without some small flaws, which you don’t expect at these price points. The row of cabins are packed a bit tight and we had a very loud group neighboring us drinking and yelling (not exaggerating) until 2:30am. It was impossible for the 2 or 3 rooms facing that house to get any sleep until the neighbors went to bed late. I recognize this might be our own 1-off experience, but it really did impact our stay. The room walls also don’t provide a great barrier to sound so you can hear more than you should be able to. The floors are very dirty. I noticed others complain about this in previous reviews but hoped those were 1-off scenarios. They weren’t. Our feet were black on the bottom after the first night. We wore sandals thereafter. We ran out of paper towels on day 4 of 5 (we had almost 30 people eating daily at the house). We were told they don’t provide additional supplies. I find that to be very disappointing, again given how much we are paying. Lastly, 2 coffee machines in the property, neither worked. To their credit, someone quickly came out with a paper clip to fix both of them (some small component needed to be cleaned out - guess it was a known problem). Another annoyance on our first morning there which forced a Starbucks run. Little things for the most part, but you expect flawlessness when paying 5 figures.

Great cabin for large groups!
This is a beautiful cabin with a great lay out . The bunk rooms we amazing. The kitchen was stocked well with cooking utensils and pots and pans .It wasn’t but just a short hop to town Incase you needed something. However the floors were very dirty. Walk across the floor with socks or barefoot and your feet are black. There was trash on the landing of the stairs going upstairs to bedrooms . Baseboards were very dusty. When we were ready to take things out of the oven there were no pot holders and only one kitchen towel no dish cloths.There are lots of bear on the property climbing on the decks so be careful going out side . All in all we enjoyed our stay .

Great house for a large group or family!
This place was great. Even better than expected. It was super clean and check-in was easy for everyone. Plenty of parking. The house itself is in a great spot- walkable to the center of Gatlinburg but you also have some great forest/mountain views from the front and back of the house. Great place and we hope to go back to this house or one of the others in the complex.

Great time in Gatlinburg
Property was awesome as advertised very clean. Cabin feels much larger than the impression I got from the pictures. Stairs were a bit steep and was a challenge for some of the older members of the family. Minor issues at arrival that didn't impact our trip but host offered to have someone fix. Close to everything in downtown Gatlinburg. The trash bins inside the house and in the community are much smaller than expected. Family of 19 had a great time would definitely rent again.

Nice property
Very nice property, however, the unit was dusty and poorly cleaned (found hair in most bathrooms, patio areas, stove and refrigerator were dirty). Tables, countertops were dusty. Sheets were stained. Didn’t call it in because we brought cleaning products with us anyway and there were plenty of extra sheets. Upset that we weren’t given the option to check out a couple of hours late. It was snowing and we were traveling with small children, but overall, it was nice.

Our family truly enjoyed this amazing cabin. We did see a bear and cub out back of the property but we followed instructions left to not feed bears and other information. The parking spaces are labels for guest not be to confused where to park. The house offered great space for entertainment, cooking and relaxation. I will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Sleeping with the bear
This property was nothing short of GREAT! The photos were spot on. There were any surprises and my family enjoyed every night. The location is spot on. Everything is within walking distance. The high light of our stay, aside from the actual cabin, was seeing the black bear multiple times. He didn't bother anyone while taking his morning and night walks. He simply cruised the sidewalk and kept quiet. If I could make any recommendation it would be to look into new mattresses in the near future. They weren't the most comfortable. We still had the best time and will be returning for sure.
