The cabin itself was amazing in cleanliness and accuracy of online description. The only reason I would not stay again is because of the drive through the neighborhood up to the cabin and the driveway.

Cozy and romantic honeymoon!

Wonderful place to stay! We took our puppy and had a great time! The deacription was accurate. The only thing I would mention is that the bathroom lighting is not great for applying makeup. I used a mirror in the bedroom lighting to make it work. And the pool sticks had bad tips and were warped. It just helped us practice more! I would love staying here again.

Great Place for Honeymoon

Me and my wife came here for our honeymoon. It was fairly easy to get to and it was the perfect distance to the main strip but far enough to be secluded and away from everything. 5 stars.

Driveway Warning

Gorgeous property overall. Remote, well kept, quiet. I would caution people with smaller cars; the driveway is VERY perilous and our car could barely get up some of the roads. Once we made the drive a few times, it got a little easier. Plus, I've never seen wild bears so close before! I would probably stay here again.

Or anniversary in the mountains

All over was a great experience. The hot tub and sauna were amazing. You should warn people about the driveway lol. We had to go up the road turn around to get into it. Same when we pulled out. And the cleaning could have been better. There was a bulk of blonde hair on the shower drain and beer bottle caps on the floor around pool table.

Nice Cabin close to Gatlinburg

This cabin had a great location and close to downtown Gatlinburg. We enjoyed the wrap around porch and all the outdoor sitting area. I would give it an overall rating of 5, but the driveway was very hard to drive up and down. We had to pass the home to turn around to go up the driveway. When going down the driveway we had to go up the road again to turn around to go down the road to get to downtown. Also the trash cans are on the road so you had to stop on the road to drop it onto the cans.

Nice Getaway

Husband and I enjoyed getting away for our anniversary. This location is great as not too far from town to grab essentials and enjoy Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge. Very clean cabin and nice, clean hot tub. Cabin had all the essentials we needed with many frying pans of all sizes. This made breakfast easy. Would have liked to have seen a smart TV available. Make sure you bring your own pillows and essentials as there are no hygiene products or kitchen cleaning products outside of dish washing detergent. You are informed of no washing detergent onsite as there is a W/D combo. Had to call about a hairdryer as the box was empty and one was delivered within 30 mins. They are very responsive. Very happy with the management of the site.

Our Second Trip Here

Same weekend as last year. Check-in was flawless as it was last year. Location is perfect and secluded, even with neighbors across the street and on either side. Quiet and serene. The roads up to the cabin and the drive way is always a little nerve wrecking, more so in my husband's truck than my car. The roads are narrow. This year there was snow for several days, but the town of Gatlinburg does a superb job on keeping the roads passable. The drive way is steep and you have to turn around up the road to be able to enter the driveway. Last year we did not use the sauna, this year my husband did. In his opinion, it did not get as hot as he anticipated. The shower was perfect last year when we stayed. This year, the water pressure was lacking. (I have shared this with the owners.) The only thing we would change about the shower besides the water pressure is a bench and more shower heads. We feel there is a lot of wasted space in the shower. The two tv's in the cabin are not smart tv's. We were out and about most of the days we were there, but the last day we were at the cabin. We did say several times that we wish there was a smart tv for us to watch "our" shows.We do love the cabin so much that we have stayed twice to mark a special time in our lives. We would definitely book again. It warm and welcoming and comfortable.

Honeymoon trip

It was overall wonderful, we booked Saturday-Wednesday but added additional dates because we weren’t ready to leave. We got married on Saturday so this was a honeymoon getaway. The cabin is very cozy and heartwarming. There’s needs to be some brighter lights in the bathroom upstairs. At first I was skeptical about driving up the mountain but once we got there it wasn’t bad at all. We do wish the roads were a little wider. The Sauna was great and so was the jacuzzi and the hot tub was really nice. Definitely would book this cabin again for another getaway for two. Diana was also great at responding quickly when I had additional questions. Overall a great experience at this beautiful cabin.

Our stay

To start , the host was wonderful and was very prompt and quick to answer any questions or concerns I had. On another note, anyone wanting to stay at this cabin should be very aware that the cabin is at the top of a mountain and the roads to get to the cabin are very scary and narrow! Driving a larger truck was a challenge and the drive way up to the cabin was difficult. The cleanliness of the cabin was disturbing. Mold was all in the shower, slime was on the shower floors , dust every where. Food and grease was left on dishes. I did contact the host about the mold and offered to clean the shower just enough so we can shower comfortably.. they did offer for the cleaning people to come out and clean but I turned it down due to it being Christmas so instead they sent me stuff to clean it my self which was perfectly fine and I told them I would.they did refund us one night due to the issues. The hot tub situation was comfortable until the house above us had people in it and they could see directly at the hot tube . The upstairs room definitely needs more blinds! As we woke up with the sun rise each morning even when we wanted to sleep it!. If they could fix to things it would definitely be the description of the cabin and location of it as being on top of a mountain on a very narrow road. The second would be the cleanliness of it and it should definitely be kept up and checked on a regular.

Average

The cabin is nice, but is lacking in essentials (scissors, pens, notepad, lighter, etc.) The shower had terrible water pressure and the hot tub didn't seem to get very hot. I suggest going a bit past the driveway, using the turing around and coming down the road to access the house. Checked in during the hurricane, so was stuck inside for a bit- would have been nice to have a smart TV. But the fireplace was cozy (dial on top!), the bed was comfortable, and the location is really great for quick trips into Gatlinburg and PF.
