We had a great 4-night stay! The cabin was very clean and exactly as described. Definitely off the beaten path, but still surprisingly close to the national park and the Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge attractions. Highly recommended!

Great Cabin and property! Just like the pictures and description.
Absolutely loved the cabin and property! My only issue at all was the very narrow stretch of one lane road to get to it. Two vehicles can’t pass for about a mile. Everything about the cabin and property was perfect!

Location relative to road conditions was a bit of a challenge. Definitely not conducive to dining out. Cooking was a challenge: equipment and organization. Very nice bedrooms, good internet, enjoyable outdoor fire.

Christmas Weekend Getaway
My family stayed at this cabin for a couple of days right before Christmas for a weekend getaway. The location was very remote and we loved hiking on the property but still close enough to Gatlinburg so we could fit in taking the kids to the aquarium :) the property was very clean and had all the accommodations needed, but it was very drafty and the floors were very cold, so bring some cozy socks and a robe if you’re staying during a cold time of the year. Overall, great cabin!

3day adventure
Cabin is quaint and rustic, kitchen well-stocked and cabin furnished nicely. Location is remote for those looking for solitude and quiet. Cabin flooring needs a bit of work in the living room (uneven in one spot between the kitchen area and living room). Views from a sitting area up the hill behind the cabin are incredible. Overall this is a very nice place. Property manager was very responsive to questions.

Beautiful property for those who love the outdoors
We loved staying here before backpacking in the National Park. It’s definitely great if you are not limited by any mobility issues. We hiked on the property and enjoyed the hot tub. We had privacy and the hood kind of isolation we wanted on our vacation. Loved it.

Perfect cozy get away
My husband, 1.5 year old baby girl, and myself enjoyed our stay at this cozy cabin in the woods. It’s nestled away from everything and is the perfect place to relax and unwind away from the busy everyday life. We loved our time in the porch, the hot tub and the trails on the property. It had rained a good bit so the road was a little rough but we did fine in my husbands truck. I would recommend this spot to any one looking to get away from the crowds!

Bear-y Fun!
We had the most fun and relaxing time at the cabin. The hot tub was a great excuse to hang out and enjoy the beauty of the property. We saw so much wildlife… rabbits, turkey, black bear. My husband and I enjoyed some front porch sitting while the kids were asleep in the one of the two very cozy bedrooms. It was equipped with everything we needed for cooking, bathing, and entertainment like TV and WiFi. The quirky “porch” up the holler hike was an adventure. Beautiful wildflowers and wilderness. Loved it! Will be back.

Goldilocks and the Bears
What a cozy little spot! We felt like we were Goldilocks visiting the Bears home in the woods. It was a fun break from the busy life at home. Accommodating, inviting, stylish and peaceful. Very helpful hosts who were always available. I recommend this cabin to families that want to unplug and reconnect!

We loved it!
It looks exactly like the pictures! You won’t have service but there is wifi! When the description says “holler” you are DEFINITELY in the holler! Be careful on the road going down there as really only one car can fit on it but it’s totally fine. It’s about a 30 minute drive to Gatlinburg (depending on traffic ofc) but we were totally fine with that. You should definitely bring bug spray because the TN bugs don’t play around. The hot tub was nice! Fit all four us pretty nicely. The hot tub isn’t connected to the cabin (like the pictures) but it’s fine! Just be careful! There are two cameras (that we saw) OUTSIDE! They faced away from the property though and you can clearly see them. I would recommend you bring your own chairs to sit on because there’s only two outdoor chairs by the fire pit. The cabin has about everything you need (maybe bring some extra towels unless you washed them). We loved it! There was some dogs running around and a man was working on the property next to but it’s so peaceful and quiet out there!

Fun at the Holler
My son and I were looking for a guys weekend at a cabin and found this gem. We didn't want the crowds of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, but wanted to remain within driving distance to them and Smokey Mountain Nation Park. The property was pretty big and while the weather was wet, we got to hike up the hill on the walking paths and catch some great views of the surrounding mountains. The cottage is rustic, but has a lot of amenities...including a wood stove which we put to good use. Thankfully, the internet was very fast, as cell signal is almost non-existent. The jacuzzi was nice and looked new. Thanks to Cameron for his easy instructions and responsiveness!
