"The place was super beautiful. Be cautious of bears we were visited a couple times. The driveway is super steep so bring a good vehicle and the internet cuts out often. Host communicated very well. Overall 10/10 stay would recommend."
Allison
Customer Relations Representative
Thank you so much for the great review, Seth! We're glad you enjoyed the home's beauty and that our communication was helpful. We appreciate the heads-up about the bear visits and the steep driveway — we remind guests that the area is wildlife country and will emphasize the driveway recommendation in the listing. We'll also follow up on the internet connectivity with our provider. We'd love to host you again anytime.<br/>Warm regards, <br/>Avada Properties

"Our stay at this Gatlinburg Airbnb was great overall! The place was very clean, well-kept, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. One of the best parts was how close it was to town—it made getting around super easy and convenient. The only thing to note is that the driveway is very, very steep, which can be a bit challenging, especially if you’re not used to mountain roads. But aside from that, everything else was wonderful, and we really enjoyed our time here. Would definitely recommend!"

"Great overall experience! Very nice house and very responsive host. Close to town and has a nice view. The driveway is INCREDIBLY steep and very sketchy in the rain, but there is space to park at the bottom if necessary."
