Can't say enough good things about this cabin. It is in the perfect location between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinberg. Quiet and secluded, yet close to all the action. It was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The hosts have thought of every detail. This has been our favorite VRBO to date.

The cabin was beautiful, clean, organized, and well thought out. The host was absolutely wonderful, from start to finish even messaged when we arrived to make sure all was well. The Bible in the night stand was a wonderful touch. Close to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Its kid friendly cabin. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. The owners were fantastic from the very beginning. We had a scheduling conflict before our trip and needed to adjust our dates, and they accommodated us immediately without any issues.The cabin was in a great location, was exceptionally clean, and the drive up to the property was smooth and easy.One of the highlights of our trip was seeing two bears. We spotted one while relaxing in the hot tub on our first night and another on our way to The Island in Pigeon Forge on our last evening.We have been coming to the Gatlinburg area every year for the past 10 years, and I can honestly say this was the best cabin we have ever stayed in. We highly recommend it and look forward to returning in the future.
