Fabulous

Everything was perfect. Ann was very prompt in response to questions regarding the cabin. The view was absolutely amazing. Everything we needed that we didn't bring was available in the cabin. Close to Parkway. Follow Ann's directions to the cabin by turning at light 10. Our GPS took us a little different way which was fine but harder to cross parkway coming out. Definitely needed the light to cross over Parkway. We had zero complaints about this cabin. .

The best vacation you could ever want!

Excellent place to stay. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Saw a bear as soon as we got out of our car at the neighbors house the day we arrived. We were so excited, what more could you ask for! Loved the hot tub, it was so relaxing. My husband and I enjoyed playing pool every evening. You have a great set- up for the whole family to enjoy including the games. Beautiful place and anyone needing a kitchen to cook in you have thought of everything. Keep doing everything you’re doing!! This was the best vacation we’ve ever had! Very relaxing!! Thanks for allowing us to have a pleasurable stay.

Instantly felt at home

This cabin was perfect for my family of four (Kids ages 7 and 10). We instantly felt at home. It was incredibly clean, had everything we needed, it was close to Pigeon Forge, and the view... was incredible. Exactly what we were looking for. The hot tub was perfect to relax in after our days adventures. We already miss everything this cabin had to offer. My husband and I are already looking for a return date.

Smoky Mountains Getaway

We recently stayed at this cabin and it was a wonderful experience. Check in process was simple after a day of travel. This was our third time in Sherwood Forest and from the moment we arrived to the cabin, we were greeted with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. The cabin itself was nicely decorated, cozy, clean, and well-maintained, providing us with all the comforts of home and more. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals, the living area was perfect for relaxing after a day of adventures, the bedrooms were cozy and comfortable, the laundry and extra pantry space were fantastic, the balconies and hot tub allowed us to enjoy the outdoors, and the game room added to the overall excellence of our stay. We enjoyed watching the sunrise, taking walks through the community in the early morning, sitting on the deck enjoying morning coffee while taking in the stunning views. The peacefulness made it hard to leave. Additionally, the location was ideal for exploring the Smoky Mountains National Park and nearby attractions. We took advantage of hiking trails, scenic drives, and local attractions, all within a short distance from the cabin. We visited Dollywood, the Pirate Voyage dinner show, the Island and more!! Overall, our time at this cabin exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to return. Thank you to the welcoming homeowner, we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in the Smoky Mountains.

New Year's stay

Property was easy to get to with the nice weather we had. I can definitely believe the sign that says 4-wheel drive or chains in needed in snowy weather, mostly due to the slope of the road. The cabin is located close to the strip. Quiet area even with it being New Years . Check in and out was very easy. Would recommend to stay here with a small family.

A BEARY wonderful stay in the Smokies

We absolutely loved our stay in this amazing cabin! The laundry facilities made it so we did not have to pack too many clothes and the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The hot tub was very clean but the porches are what made our stay!!! The view is breathtaking- coffee on the porch in the AM; wine in the PM and the sunrises and sunsets were unbelievable!

First Mountain stay

First mountain stay and cabin for my family of five. Loved all the comfort and cleanliness but most of all the view was the best. Just missed a bear 30 minutes after we got there:( Check in and out was super easy. Pool table and arcade was great entertainment when we got back to cabin to relax. Hot tub was loved by my threev teens. Property owner was very quick to respond to any questions we had prior to visit. REALLY enjoyed our stay and would recommend to all
