A little misleading

To preface, I will say that my stay at this property was delightful, and it was everything I NEEDED. However, there are two things that were less than ideal. One, the driveway to this house is pretty dang steep, steep enough that the owner recommends a 4wd car. Of our 4 cars, only 2 could make it up the hill to the home reliably, making carpooling and travel a little tricky. Second, There is no Hot Tub on the property, despite being advertised as such. I believe this

Loved the cabin!

The host was very responsive when I needed assistants with parking and the cabin was very spacious and clean! Our friends and kids loved the stay there! It’s also very close to all places we planned on visiting while there.Do keep in mind the 4 wheel drive recommendation or it will be impossible to get up the driveway. Also, lock your car doors or the bears will get in them!

Nice Vacation Cabin

We came down to Gatlinburg with another family and this cabin worked out well. It was spacious and the layout gave us a feel of two different cabins but in one space. It was nice so we could each have our own space. The kids loved the game room. The kitchens are wellstocked with pots, pans and anything you need to cook while you're there. Definitely worth the stay.

Our Tennessee trip

The cabin was great great location very clean. We have the minimum of anything we need it. It’s close to some grocery stores. It’s also in a quiet area everyone loved the cabin. We would love to go back next year and hopefully we can stay in the same cabin. Just a small note bring a 4 x 4 vehicle lol

Family Christmas Vacation

We had a group of 7 people and had no problems with sleeping arrangements. Two king size beds and 4 twin over full size bunk beds. The two kitchens was a little weird but if cooking a lot of food it helps. Two refrigerators also was nice. Only issue was the game system had its cord locked up in bottom of the cabinet so couldn’t play it.

Delightful

Appreciated the heads-up regarding the driveway, and enjoyed our stay very much. Plenty of room to relax, sleep, cook, play, campfire, or drive to national park. Lovely, secluded, quiet mountanside retreat with 2 full kitchens, both well-stocked for cooking and serving. Minimal pantry staples and kitchen towels, however. Plenty of dining, gameplaying space. No games provided. Fireplaces look beautiful. Campfire ring had plenty of seating, and available firewood. Bathrooms both clean, with abundant towels. Superfun getaway enjoyed by old and young alike.

Secluded but still close to the action

We enjoyed our stay. It was easy to find and close to the activities that we wanted to do. The two kitchens were a huge boon to our large group. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee on the porch. The area felt secluded and neighbor noises weren't an issue but we weren't out in the middle of nowhere. I loved watching the bugs and birds in the mornings. Watched for bears but none came up. The water was amazingly hot and the shower pressure/jacuzzi were perfect after a long day of exploring. Our main issues were that the AC seemed to be locked at 70. When it's so hot outside, that's just not cool enough. =( Also, the ceiling fans seemed to be missing their strings so we couldn't turn those on for airflow. Not big enough of an issue to bother our host over, but just something to consider.

Not A Cabin Experience

Honestly if you are going to the smokies to spend time at a cabin and just rest this one isn’t for you. Although the outside looks like a cabin the inside is very much out of date and what appears to have been a duplex at one time. The driveway is steep and the loose gravel are the cause to need 4 wheel drive. This rental is close to town but in a quiet area. Rental is clean for the most part but is due a deep cleaning. If you are just looking for a place to sleep and not hang out this is for uou.

Thanksgiving week stay with family

We travel for Thanksgiving every year and this house worked perfectly since it had the two kitchens! It basically was like a duplex but you had access to both sides. It was perfect! I will say the driveway is VERY STEEP and switchbacks. So anyone who is Leary of that, just know ahead of time. My mom didn’t want to leave the property much because she was so nervous. Of course we didn’t ever have an issue getting up or down the several times we went out. The host was very responsive to any questions we had. It’s just outside of town. So you don’t get the busy hustle and bustle of the downtown area up at the house. It still felt like you had your own space and seclusion up on the hillside. We Loved Gatlinburg! Thank you for letting us stay in your home!

Disappointed

Upon arrival, we found a hand written envelope to place a tip for the cleaning personnel. We opened the refrigerator and not only was there old food in it, it had jelly spills on the shelves, obviously not cleaned out since the last guest. Very thick dust throughout. If this rental had required a cleaning fee, I would have demanded it back. It could be a nice place with a little TLC and a good cleaning.

Dissatisfied

Location was fine but the cabin needs a deep cleaning. We saw black mold in the jets of our tub. Mildew on shower curtain which we had to wash. Also, we lost power on our last full day and our contact was not helpful. We had to pack in the dark and throw out all the food and then find a motel! Not worth the money.

Not well advertised and not cleaned well.

Misadvertised to have 7 flat screens only had 5, started front wheel drive recommended 4x4 plus...no you need a vehicle that sits up off of the ground we had to travel together because my parents front wheel drive can’t would not make it up the driveway without bottoming out which could break something. We didn’t get to come and go as we pleased it ruined our trip. There was food smeared on the wall and boogers on the bathroom wall. I called the contact number and her excuse was they clean only enough to get the next person in and not a good cleaning between that is how diseases and bacteria are spread! I would not recommend it might be big but that is all it is old and needs to be cleaned and the driveway graded often.

The steep Drive way

When we arrived at the property (30 minutes before check in) and was making our way up the long steep drive there was a tree over the drive way preventing us from making it the rest of the way up. Contacted the property owner about the tree, she wanted to know if we could just walk the rest of the way up. That was not possible as we had my elderly mother with us. She said she would get someone on getting the tree removed. So we headed into town to waste several hours on waiting for the tree to be removed. It took 3 hours for the tree to be removed. The property owner offered us no compensation for our inconveniences. We did find that there was some dusting of the shades in the dining and living room that needed to be done as well as the light fixtures over the kitchen sink needed to be cleaned. We did have a wonderful time despite the beginning of our trip.

Renter beware

Unless you want to rent blindly and like playing Russian roulette on where you stay on vacation, stay far away from this rental. Let’s start by saying unless you have a 4-wheel drive vehicle you will be attending a Baptist church service across the street to ask if you can use their parking lot. Then carry all your luggage up a steep gravel hill that is ridiculously sloped. So if you have heart conditions, breathing problems, sore bones this isn’t for you. Oh…and you don’t find out any of this until you have paid in full and it’s too late to back out. You can forget trying to contact the person to complain or see about other arrangements. They disappear and let you struggle the rest of your trip because they are laughing all the way to the bank.

Maintenance Issues

First of all the driveway is no joke. The owner should really consider lights along the steep and curvy driveway. Secondly, because of the driveway they should have had maintenance or a landscaper with a leaf blower clear it and the porches and the fire pit area prior to guest arrival. The left side of the unit had no hot water because there was an issue with a brand new hot water heater that was installed by an unqualified maintenance man. We had two days of hot water on the left side. So that meant 6 adults and 4 kids had to share one shower all week. The owner needs to take more time and put more into owning this property instead of leaving it to 3rd parties to handle everything. And email was the only line of communication with her. Also there’s a block on the thermostats and it was quite hot for our week and we couldn’t turn the air down last 70. That was inconvenient. And the game table does not work. The kids were pretty disappointed. This place has a lot of potential. Just needs a little more attention and effort put into it.

Great House, Terrible Communication

This was a very nice house to stay in for a group of ten people, great size and it was clean and the beds were nice and comfy. However, I never once was able to get in touch with the property owner. The morning of our trip, I still hadn't received any check in information or instructions, and I couldn't get a hold of Evolve Vacation Rentals (who the listing is through) or the property owner themselves, because the phone number in the listing doesn't work. I finally had to get on the phone with VRBO help and they were able to get a hold of the property owner another way and forward me the check in information, but it was stressful having to be on the phone all morning while driving to the house and if I wouldn't have reached out, we would have had no idea how to get in or anything. Additionally, it is listed on the very bottom of the FAQs but it should be listed first thing, you literally CANNOT access the house without a four wheel drive. Luckily, we had two four wheel drives within our group of cars and we could shuttle people up the long steep driveway, but our other SUV would not make it at all, and we again couldn't get a hold of the property owner to ask about alternative parking. The driveway is way too long to walk too, so you have to have at least one four wheel drive in your group to take things up to the house, even if some people do park somewhere else. We ended up having to park in a church parking lot nearby and we didn't even hear back from Evolve until the next afternoon on if this was allowed or if they had somewhere else for us to park. The house itself was nice, I just wish the check in process and the communication were better.

Worst vacation ever 😞

Horrible vacation. Having families come from two states to meet with 10 people- usually the only get to see each other once a year- and this was it. Was going to make this our yearly get away. We arrived on Sunday, tired from traveling- and the toilets and showers do not work. TEN people and no toilets. We called and she came out to fix. So Monday morning we leave to find restrooms- which wasn’t easy because such a tourist town that everyone has signs up saying “No public restrooms”. She lets us know the problem is fixed, so we go back. Still planning on being able to enjoy the vacation. So one person jumped in the shower, and the next thing we know there is feces everywhere. The problem was not fixed. Long story short, the toilets, and showers were not repaired until Thursday. Our stay was only until Saturday. One of the families left on Wednesday. So over four full days of 10 people in this cabin, and we have no working bathrooms. So in the beginning of the week, while we are there sitting outside, They decide to come and instead of fixing the toilet, they decide to clean out the gutters and mow the lawn. While we were sitting there outside trying to visit with each other, they start mowing the yard and climb up on ladders to do gutter work right there on the porch?!? I know this is a normal thing to do, but it just seemed very inappropriate that they were doing it on our vacation time. All in all this was a very disappointing and unsatisfying trip. For us all to be looking forward to it for months... just not how we expected our vacation to go.

Our Mountain Getaway!!!

We had a wonderful time. The cabin was beautiful. The driveway was a bit much but we had four wheel drive, so it wasn't that bad. We had a bear to come by for a visit The first day. He looked in the window at us and went on across the deck back to the woods. We had a power outage for about 9 or so hours. We made the best of it until it came back on. We made forts in the living room and talked in front of the fire place.(Thank God it had a fire place because it was a little cool that day). Overall stay was wonderful. I would stay here again if available when we travele back this way.

I really like the area. Very nice and quite but you’d definitely need either 4 wheel drive atv or a front wheel drive could possibly do it. Be more difficult but doable. Almost to the point of needing a mountain goat to get up lol. Other than the driveway I really liked it. Nice and peaceful.
