Family Fall Getaway
I was very impressed with the cleanliness of this cabin. I’m very picky about cleanliness, and I would definitely rate this one of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed in. Everything was great. There were bears at the property which we enjoyed watching. House was wonderful. Host always responded very quick to any questions or concerns that I had. Very spacious, plenty of room for everybody to have their own space. Loved everything about it had a wonderful time with the family. We have a huge family and we’re all able to gather together in the kitchen and have family meals which we found to be amazing.

The property was great. There was plenty of room for our family. Was especially kid friendly, lots of games to enjoy and they got to use the jacuzzi which they were so excited to do and they loved it. There were a couple of things that need to be repaired however it didn’t need immediate repair so we didn’t contact the hosts. The kitchen sink handle was broken but we were able to use it. The bathroom in the bedroom downstairs has a water leak around the base of the commode. The fire pit outside was out of gas. My son said the pervious guest left the propane tank on. Other than those small things WE ALL had a great stay!! Would definitely recommend and rebook in the future.

Family Reunion
We selected this property for a mini-family reunion (multiple age groups) and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House, cabin, and jacuzzi were very clean, rooms were quite spacious and there were enough gathering spots for folks to break off into smaller groups. Parking was ample. Arcade games and pool table were a hit with both kids and adults. Host was very responsive to questions. Had one issue with the TV cable going out that was quickly resolved. Location was ideal as was only about 10 min from main G'burg strip and grocery store was about 5 min away. House was far enough away to feel private but close to main attractions. Given the size of our group, we needed a more frequent trash pickup, but other than that, would definitely recommend this property.

We loved every minute spent at the house. There was enough space for everyone (16 guest). Great location! Host was quick to respond and resolve issue. Home was clean and beds were amazing. There was plenty of space to lounge. This house had a feeling like home away from home. Had a chance to see bears (at a short distance away). Can’t wait to come back and visit.

Great Space - Fun for Family
This was a great place for our family and friends to stay for a long weekend! Lots of fun things to do! Our kids enjoyed it all and we even got to meet a bear and her two cubs (cautiously of course). The property owner checked in off and made all important info clear. Super helpful! We will definitely be back!

The house was wonderful!! The location is the best also. 10 mins or less to go everywhere. If u have a rainy day don’t worry, you can have fun at the house!! The house is full of games and enough space for a huge family. We had 11 adults and 3 kids and we were never on top of each other. We had people in the theater, people playing pool on the pool table, people upstairs playing cards in the living room, people playing board games in the downstairs living room and dining room. It was such vibe!!! The house is also very cozy. The house is close to pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. If you have a lot of people in your party this is the #1 house to go to!!!
