Epic Group Cabin | Game Room + King Suites + Views

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great 4 day weekend with family. Fun for all ages with the hot tub, air hockey, foosball, and arcade games. The kitchen was large enough for us to work together. Two fridges helped to store everything for the whole crew. Comfy beds and pillow, and the sofa, too. Great host and communication. Gorgeous views from every angle. Bear sightings didn't disappoint. We'd love to return for another family gathering. Highly recommend for a large group. Also, a short 30 minute drive to easy hikes at Little River and Jake's Creek"

10/10 Excellent

"Can I rate higher than excellent!?!! This beautiful home was home to us for several days. Are activities were spread all over the area-so this cabin was perfectly centrally located. I wish we had shad more time!"

NEW! Snuggle Bear Cabin in the Heart of the Smokies!

8/10 Good

"Cabin was good but not excellent. Just little minor things here and there that just seem to aggravate you like ceiling fan in living room not working. Shower in bedroom didn’t work well just a small stream comes out. You have to climb stairs from bedroom to upstairs bathroom to take a shower. Minor issues you can live with just aggravating. Cleaning crew could pay better attention to stuff. Dishes left in washer dead bugs in drawers of cabinet towels left in dryer. But once again minor issue. But overall cabin was very pleasant. Getting in was a little hassle as you have to share a driveway with another cabin and not a lot of room to turn around once you get there. Whoever was cleaning the other cabin had parked their car in the driveway and you couldn’t get by. Took thirty minutes to get them to move. Extremely aggravating! Never did find that lake and pool that the ad shows in the pics. I don’t believe it exists. Everything was stocked well including the kitchen and hot tub was clean. Bed was also nice. Bears are all over and more than likely you’ll see some. We were on the deck and they come off the hill behind the cabin and walked on down the hill the cabin overlooks. We were probably 20 yards from them and this was in the evening around four thirty So pay attention. Overall had a good stay and might rent it again in the future. Wears Valley is a little more peaceful than Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and I think that’s what we enjoyed the most."

"It was a nice house to stay at but the pictures make the house and driveway look a lot bigger then what they actually are. If you have more then one vehicle backing down the 45 dagree driveway is your best bet."
