My trip

What an amazing stay! The cabin was spotless, and the view of the mountains was absolutely stunning. It’s so peaceful! We had nearly 20 people, and there was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was fully stocked, the rooms were comfy and warm, and the jacuzzi was perfect. We also had so much fun with all the board games, video games, and the movie theater with endless movie options.One thing to keep in mind, if you’re visiting during the winter, it can take a while for the roads to be cleared after a snowstorm. We went during heavy snow and ended up missing our flight because we couldn’t leave the cabin until the roads were safe. Definitely something to plan for, but other than that, it was a fantastic trip.

Wonderful cabin with beautiful views! A great location for a family reunion

My wife turned 60 so we invited our three daughters and all of their children and their spouses to celebrate in Wears Valley. There was plenty to do for our grandkids and we very much enjoyed the location near Pigeon Forge and Townsend! The cabin’s description was very accurate. We plan to return.

Great Mountain Cabin

This was our second time staying at The Knotty Logde. We enjoyed it so much 5 years ago that we decided we should come again for our family trip. We love the layout of the house and that there is plenty of space for our entire group consisting of my husband’s parents, sisters, their children and our children. The three levels allowed us to all be in the same house spending quality time together while also spreading out enough to have our own space. We love that there is a large enough table for the whole group to have meals together!! This was one of the selling points for my mother in law when selecting a location. I wish I’d brought some more kitchen towels or pot holders though. Preparing a meal for a large group with the starter set supplied wasn’t the best. I’ll remember that for next time though!Our favorite activities were sitting by the fireplace relaxing, playing pool upstairs, and playing ping pong downstairs. We love that this cabin has adequate parking and a nice, flat, paved area for the fire pit. We enjoyed making s’mores outdoors. Many other cabins I’ve seen have very short, steep driveways for parking and that was not the case with the Knotty Lodge! The kids enjoyed the option to play outside in a safe space with the tether ball or explore the area of “woods” right next to the parking area. The theatre area and air hockey table could use some updating/maintenance to be enjoyed to the fullest. Besides that, we loved the downstairs area as well.

Smokies Haven

My family of thirteen—wife, mother-in-law, adult children and grandchildren—had an unforgettable stay at The Knotty Lodge. The description and photos in the property listing are accurate. The views are indeed breathtaking, and we spent hours enjoying them on the deck and by the fire pit. The bedrooms and common areas were perfect for a family or other large group. We could not have been more pleased.

The beautiful huge cabin, the ease of working with the property manager/owner, the comfortable beds, the well equipped kitchen, the ample parking ( we came from 4 states), the incredible view, the quiet, the bears, the fire pit, the game room and even the hair raising drive up that mountain made for an unforgettable time of making memories for our family.

Wonderful mountain home close to everything you want to do!

We had a wonderful stay with plenty of room for our whole family. This property is located at the top of the mountain near Townsend were there was little to no cell service and very poor WiFi service in the house. It was clean and had games for the whole family to enjoy. The location is close to all Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg has to offer. Be careful to obey bear awareness! We saw 4 bears during the week that even came on the back porch.

Phenomenal Cabin

This is a phenomenal cabin with excellent furnishings and above average amenities. Is perfect for a large family with something to do for everyone. Kitchen is extremely well furnished, which we greatly appreciated. While the cabin is at the top of the mountain, the roads are well paved so easily drivable.

Beautiful Home, terrible smell

We love The Great Smokey Mountains and the house was beautifully designed with spectacular views. Furniture, bedding, linens, bathrooms all met our expectations. However there was an issue with a terrible smell coming from behind the walls, there was definitely something dead. I messaged the manager on Thursday when we arrived because we noticed the smell immediately. We didn't get a reply until Friday afternoon, due to the snow they were unable to send anyone, which is completely understandable. Also, the maintenance people were there when my daughters arrived, we know they smelled it also because they went out and bought plug in air freshners. They said they looked around and couldn't find anything. Knowing we were going to have to deal with it we decided to try to find the source ourselves. After getting the code to the utility room we were able to find the problem. We never found any rodents but we found a lot of feces and black stained wood from urine that had to be there for a long time. The smell was so bad we had covered up all the return air vents with foil. The home was perfect otherwise but I wouldn't reccomend staying there unless you know the problem has been fixed.I did send photos to msnagement and she said the problem was going to be addressed immediately. Unfortunately it was to late for our stay.

Perfect Getaway

Cabin was perfect, clean, and well equipped. Our group of 16 adults and 3 kids had plenty of room and lots to do with the arcade games and game tables. Built fires in the fireplace that made it extra cozy when we got to see a few snow flurries. Grilled steaks one night on the two propane grills and was able to seat everyone at the large dining room table.

Beautiful family reunion in the Smokies

Our extended family reunion with 21 members had a fabulous stay at this cabin. Amazing views, plenty of space, and many memories made at this home. Everything is thoughtful and comfy and lots of room in the well-equipped kitchen. The second fridge proved invaluable! I don’t know about you, but a big drawback to VRBOs for us is the challenge of getting access to live TV. The Knotty Lodge has Directv and we were able to keep up on sports, news, and watch movies. Truly appreciated, thank you. Per previous reviews … Yes the bears come by a couple of times each day! The “starter set” of cleaning products lasted a day with our large group and the grocery store is a decent drive away. Be prepared!

Beautiful views, spacious cabin, great time for large families!

We loved the cabin and all the amenities it had for the children (ages 4-14). The adults were able to relax and the cabin is so spacious everyone had enough room and space to hang out with out overcrowding. If there is any complaint it would be the drive up the mountain, but that can't be helped, it creates the beautiful view!

The property was amazing. The home was absolutely beautiful. Wish we would have booked for two weeks instead of one week. Host was very accommodating and answered all concerns immediately.
