"The cabin was a perfect place to stay with our family of 6. Very affordable, clean, and comfortable place! Has a separate room/bathroom/shower separate from the cabin built onto the garage which was cool! TVs in all bedrooms, very nice hot tub with a great view! 10/10 would recommend"

"Our stay at this beautiful cabin was wonderful! The location was not hard to find considering it was located in those gorgeous woods. Cabin itself was as described and the pictures don't do it justice! We loved the area and did not want to leave! One night during our stay a tree knocked down electrical posts and the light went out for a couple of seconds then turned back on. We realized our cabin was equipped with a pretty hefty generator that took care of the whole place until electricity was restored in the area. That was such a relief and was so grateful the owners thought of everything. If you're looking for a quiet private place with beautiful woodsy surroundings that has every accommodation in mind, this is the place! Hoping this place is available when we go back to visit!"

"It was our first time going to gatlinburg and this cabin was great. The only thing is the pillows needed to be cleaned and there was some trash under the beds but other than that the bathroom kitchen everywhere was clean!!!! Some of the beds were a little on the firmer side and the room with the three beds is in a whole other buildings like in the garage area and the water flow to some of the showers was low. But this cabin was cozy and had the fireplace and was in a cozy location. The hosts replied very quick to all my messages. Over all was good stay for the price we paid! Great trip!"

"We had a lovely stay at this cabin - it was clean and as described in the description/photos. We had two elderly individuals in our group so I really enjoyed that the parking area was flat, there were minimal steps to access the cabin entrance, and that there was a room on the main level. The cabin was about 15-25 minutes away from the main strips in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg making it the perfect spot to be nearby the top sites and attractions but just far enough out to have peace and quiet to enjoy the nature of the area. The host was responsive and proactive with communication regarding details of our stay."

"We had a phenomenal family vacation! The cabin was close enough to town to get around, but far enough to be secluded and private! The “mother in law suite” to the side with a queen bed and bunk beds were great for my two older daughters. We saw bears traveling the backroads to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We would definitely stay again!"

When we arrived there was an error on the hot tub and even though it was after traditional working hours, the support staff walked us through some troubleshooting steps and when it didn’t help, they had a technician out right away in the morning to repair. Smooth sailing from there! Would recommend this cabin/host and if available will look to rent it again for our next family trip."

"Cabin was exactly as advertised. Had just the right set up for our stay. Had rain our first night at the cabin. Unfortunately the wood pile was not covered and was wet so could not use either of the 2 fire pits all weekend. Interior was beautiful with a nice fireplace. Hot tub was hot and ready to use along with plenty of seating options on both the front and back porch. Rooms were spacious with comfortable beds and clean linens. Bathrooms were accommodating to our needs. Kitchen had all the amenities which was nice. There was clear instructions for wi-fi and had smart TV’s so we could log in to our own streaming apps.Overall a wonderful cabin on a nice quiet road with easy access to all the local towns. Would recommend this all my friends and family as an option and look forward to booking with Shane again."
