Bear country room with a view.

The room was amazing and the view off of the balcony was breathtaking. Within the first hour of being there we encountered a moma bear and her two cubs. That was the cherry on top. We will definitely stay there again.

Great Cozy Room with a View

Cozy room with a beautiful view of the Smokey Mountains. Very quiet location in the woods, with a running brook and coy pond. Saw a huge bear cross the street about a mile from the room, so that was a plus 😆 About 30 to 40 minutes from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, through small towns. Hillbilly Restaurant is very close and they have a good breakfast buffet. You will not be disappointed when you stay here. There's no front desk. You get a code to enter the property after 10PM and codes to get into the building and your room. Apartment size fridge, Keurig, microwave. We will be back.

What a hidden gem near Townsend!! This is a very unique place to stay (I was just looking for a hotel room) The bed is comfortable, the bathroom has a neat walk in shower. Just like a bedroom with a gorgeous view of a mountain. If I'm ever back in the area, I will for sure stay again and a bit longer than just one night. Check in was SO easy. I didn't get the email because it was a last minute decision to stay, so I called and almost immediately got a text with information. Excellent find!!

The room was nice and clean . I enjoyed the quiet intimate feel of the room. There wasn’t much amenities offered. The trail could have been longer. Overall it was a great stay for the weekend.

Absolutely stunning. It is an older place, so you can hear your neighbors creeks as they walk around.But nothing crazy. Very romantic getaway. about 45 mins from downtown Gburg. Will be staying here again.

We really loved this place and wish we had more time to stay. We only stayed for the night and we got in late and left early but even in the dark you can tell the property is beautiful! The room we had was super cute, clean, the shower was so nice and check in was super easy and contactless. The only con I can even give would be if you are a light sleeper go for a 2nd floor room our room was not and in the middle of the night someone going up the stairs about scared me to death lol but once I realized what it was I don’t think it would have bothered me after that and I would for sure stay here again! The location to the National Park is also great!

It was the most beautiful over night stay I’ve experienced in a very long time. I have nothing at all to say except good things. It was the closest to heaven I’ve ever felt and honestly have ever been. I would stay there again in a heartbeat and I know I will return to this extraordinary place. Thank you so much for having me and my mommy and for giving me some much needed comfort and joy reminding me that God is truly magnificent and very much alive. My heart overflows with gratitude. Magic took place during this one night stay. -Angell and Sheryl from across the state back in east TN.
