Several jets in the hot tub did not work and it was not private, neighbors could clearly see us. Half the jets in the inside tub did not work. Back deck was slick bc of a moss build-up. Trash laying around the property. Shower very slick. Nowhere to hang wet towels. Cabin was fairly clean but in desperate need of upgrades and maintenance. Will not stay here again honestly. Did reach out to the host but have yet to hear back.

Weekend Getaway

This was a perfect spot for a much needed quick getaway. Only “bummer” is that pictures don’t make it clear that the hot tub is in the front and right on the road/open view to the other cabins. Only other recommendation would be for more towels. Only 3 were provided and between the hot tub and regular bathing we quickly were re-using the same damp towels. Would definitely stay again.

Solid

The place was clean and cozy, but not all I had expected. There were never any pictures of the bathroom listed when I booked (which I took the risk) and turned out to be fine. The only real "complaints" I had were that the pillow options on the bed as there weren't very many that didn't have decorative (and uncomfortable) casings. Also, there were ice trays in the freezer, but they didn't even leave any ice for us to start with which was frustrating. The bed was also a solid 6/10 for comfort and led to me waking up multiple times throughout the night. It could have been just because I am used to my one at home, but that is my opinion. Overall, it was cozy and a great getaway spot on a budget, but I would not expect a 5 star looking place. Last little piece is that the carbon monoxide alarm had no batteries and wasn't even plugged in. Just an FYI

Very Relaxing

Cabin was very easy to find, clean (a little musty smell, so if you're sensitive to that, take some candles or humidifier) and relaxing. Communication was great as they were very responsive. Check-in and Checkout was super easy. We would definitely stay with them again. Recommend highly.

Great location!

We were there for a wrestling tournament at the sports center so it was perfect. It was very cozy and the perfect size for the 2 of us. The fireplace being gas was a bonus. It has a small but very nice kitchen & the bath was a good size. It was so nice and quiet I slept like a baby!

Mountain getaway

Overall was a great stay. Cabin could use some updating. Hot tub was good but could need updated as jets were not that powerful. Hot tub is on street side and has direct view of neighboring cabin. Lots of steps to get into cabin so be ready for that if you have lots of things to bring in. W spent most of our time In Gatlinburg and location was pretty close to downtown. We were always able to find parking.

Cozy Cabin

The cabin was very clean on the inside and very comfortable. Unfortunately, the indoor hot tub did not work, but we were able to use the hot tub on the deck, which was really nice! We did not expect to have to clean our own dishes and take out the trash, in addition to paying a cleaning fee. Overall, we had a great experience staying in the cabin!

Just really seemed it could be a little clearer, ruff vinyl in the bathroom, some cob webs, more pans and dishes, more kitchen towels dish cloths, lots of steps up and to the cabin, need new boards for the steps and railing, front and back decks need power washing, electric grill needs replacing, all and all we had a nice stay,

Perfect for 2

This is a perfect little cabin for 2. My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this cabin. AC cooled wonderfully, bed was very comfortable (a little on the firm side) and clean with no stains. If you are short like me (5'1") the shower will make you feel tall. Even though we did not cook, plenty of utensils and dishes were provided. Also a stand up fan was provided along with a ceiling fan and our sleep thanks you for that. The Hot tub worked beautifully though I had wished for a little more privacy as both cabins on either side had an unobstructed view of us in it The jetted tub inside was placed just right so that I could watch a movie while relaxing. A little bummed out the gas logs were shut off in April, so we were not able to have them on. On our last day we noticed about a mile walk from our cabin is a trolly stop for the blue trolley. We really liked this for our get away but there were a few things that needs to be addressed. In the bathroom please replace the mat in front of the sink or try to remove the sticky patch left by the previous mat. Up in the rafters there are a few spider nests that you can see while laying in bed, the curtains for the big window needs to be taken down and cleaned as they are a few big stains on them and the curtains are to small to cover the full width of windows fully and finally the cabin had a smell of old stale cigarettes.
