Excellent for the cleanness/location/property. But the hot tub is difficult to heat up and we have to give up. The internet is pretty slow.

We had an incredible experience using Vrbo. This was actually the first time I have booked through Vrbo and was nervous about the process. The booking was easy, the location that we booked was exactly as promised and the communication through booking, planning and while there was perfect. I would definitely recommend booking through Vrbo and especially our location at Downtown Chestnut Lodge in Gatlinburg.

This property is great. It has two kitchens with tons of appliances and utensils.. The bedrooms are huge and have nice bathrooms. The two living room areas are exceptional and the double porches are spacious and easy going. My only gripe is the room with the pool table is a little tight when shooting, but that's not a big deal at all. The bears are ever present so TAKE ALL FOOD OUT OF YOUR CAR AND LOCK YOUR DOORS. A family, a couple cabins down, did not do this and the bears wrecked their vehicles. Beats are part of this area so respect them and lock your doors

Great place to stay

We had 8 people in our party. All were able to have our own room and bathroom. The cabin was clean and comfortable. Having access to the trolley was a great plus! We even saw a bear as we sat on our balcony enjoying our morning coffee! A great experience.

Excellent location, Outstanding accommodations

We stayed 3 nights, July 8 - 11th. We loved our cabin, the Spaciousness, ease of check-in/check-out. Communication with host was timely.No real problems, however we did expect to cookout after reviewing the amenities on website..that was disappointing but not a deal breaker for returning. I would recommend this cabin.

Almost perfect

Property is beautiful and would be perfect if you dont care about playing pool. Pool table is in a tiny room, walls cause a problem with more then half your shots. For us it was not enjoyable at all. We would definitely stay again if it wasnt so important to us!

Making Family Memories and Bears Galore

The cabin was easy to get to, plenty of parking, and so clean and we are picky when it comes to cleanliness! The beds were very comfortable and enough space for 10 of us with 3 being our grandbabies. The bears were the best part though! We had bears visiting everyday multiple times a day! It made it so much fun for everyone! The cabin is conveniently located to downtown Gatlinburg and we received parking vouchers for a parking garage nearby so we didn’t have to pay for downtown parking. No complaints!!! We will definitely be staying here again next year!

Wonderful and memorable

The cabin was new, modern and luxurious. Our extended family had plenty of room. The only things that could've made it a perfect stay were if the kitchen had an oven mitt and the floors were cleaner. The children's feet were noticeably dirty after walking around inside. But I wouldn't let those things keep me from booking here again! It was convenient to town which was a huge plus. The beds were a little on the firm side but still nice.
