Refreshing mountain retreat

Beautiful view, enough space for our family of 5, our entire family appreciated being able to bring our dog along, and the cabin’s location is within a reasonable drive all of east TN offers. We would stay here again.

Blessed Seclusion

Loved the fact that this rental was so quiet and secluded. Away from the hustle bustle but just a few minutes drive to the center of all the activities! Cabin had what we needed but not overly appointed. Bath was clean and serviceable but could use an update. Kitchen is small and would be had to do any large meals but worked just fine for our needs. Really nice view. The road up to the cabin needed some maintenance due to limbs from trees potentially scratching your vehicle. Al. In all, we had a very nice time and we are already talking about renting there again!

Nice view and location

This was our first time in Tennessee with our kids and the location was great - close to lots of activities but nice and quiet. It was easy to find. However, we were disappointed by a few things. We encountered mice in the cabin on our first night. We contacted management and they did attempt to mitigate, however, we found more evidence of mice a few days later. The cabin on a whole was not overly dirty, but definitely not super clean. The kitchen is VERY sparsely appointed. Also, there is no dishwasher. To be fair, the ad does not list one but we assumed a kitchen would have one. Very few utensils and such for cooking and very little prep space for making meals. The bedrooms were nice, but any movement in the upstairs bedroom is heard quite loudly in the downstairs one.
