I was excited about all the amenities that this property boast. When we arrived there was an awful stench through out the property. The carpet smelled like pee and you could tell that animals were previously in the property. The basketball goal outside had an hole in the backboard. The basketball game inside didn't work. The home itself is old and in need of some upgrades. The door handle to the front door kept falling off. The house served it's purpose for us to sleep but everything was just too old to be a mental. I would not recommend this property unless you're used to smelling an old house that needs upgrades!

The disposable shower curtain in the middle bathroom (with bedroom attached) had a moldy and very dirty shower liner. We replaced it. The cabin also leaks when it rains. Thursday evening it was pouring and water was coming in through the front door. There didn’t appear to be a leak anywhere else. Overall it was a great place and my family loved it. If we ever came back to Gatlinburg, we would come back!

Fantastic House
We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful house. There were 18 of us from babies to grandparents. There was room for everyone and having so many bathrooms was a plus. The guest house out back was great for our family who have young ones and wanted their own place. We had so much fun with the pool, the flat yard (we set up badminton), the pool table and pac-man. The only negatives were there was only refrigerator. With so many of us we filled that up in no time flat. Also, the mattress in a few of the rooms (bunk bed room and last bedroom on left) need to be replaced. Other than that, it was a great stay! Communication was FANTASTIC with the host!

Wonderful house and location!
This was a great house for a larger family and it was close to downtown. The pavilion and hot tub was a great place to gather at nights. We saw a bear every day so please don't leave any food in your vehicles and keep doors locked. The only negatives was that the grass really needed to be mowed and the first upstairs bedroom on the right really could use a new mattress.We would stay here again!Thank you

The host, Justin, was great. Very responsive to every question I had. We had a family group of 12 and the house was very accommodating just like the description said. Plenty of parking and space to relax. The layout with 7 bathrooms was also a big plus with several couple staying. Highly recommend this property for large groups.

Great cabin, easy checkin/out
Great property, very cozy, enough room for everyone to spend time together or have space alone if wanted. Teens loved the basketball court, pool table and jacuzzi and the little ones loved the theatre room for movie nights and game room. Adults loved the large rooms that made it easy to all gather together or play hame noghts

Excellent Place to Unwind
We reserved this place with the intent of both enjoying the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area and relaxing after a long, cold winter. This place hit the mark for both. Literally minutes from both, but tucked away from lights and sounds of both it made for a great place to stay. Plenty of rooms for everyone and every room had it's own bathroom. Tons of places to sit and several TVs so people could each watch separate shows. The Hot Tub was warm and much needed after long days. I would definitely stay here again.

This property was perfect for multiple families! It was very close to Gatlinburg but just enough away from the hustle and bustle. There was plenty of room for everyone to stretch out and have their own areas. Nice neighborhood. They do share a drive with another property. Well stocked kitchen. Overall highly recommend!

A Perfect Fit
Our family, grandparents, parents, and grandchildren, love to spend a few days together for Christmas. This place was perfect. There were several gathering places, giving us areas to enjoy each other in small groups while also being together. The fact that almost all the bedrooms have adjoining bathrooms was a bonus. Justin was very attentive. He checked in to see how we were doing, and took care of every little thing. Thanks for a wonderful Christmas holiday for my family!

I was very impressed with the cleanliness of this cabin. I’m very picky about cleanliness, and I would definitely rate this one of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed in. Everything was great. There were bears at the property which we enjoyed watching. House was wonderful. Host always responded very quick to any questions or concerns that I had. Very spacious, plenty of room for everybody to have their own space. Loved everything about it had a wonderful time with the family. We have a huge family and we’re all able to gather together in the kitchen and have family meals which we found to be amazing.

A & J Wedding
The property was great. There was plenty of room for our family. Was especially kid friendly, lots of games to enjoy and they got to use the jacuzzi which they were so excited to do and they loved it.
There were a couple of things that need to be repaired however it didn’t need immediate repair so we didn’t contact the hosts. The kitchen sink handle was broken but we were able to use it. The bathroom in the bedroom downstairs has a water leak around the base of the commode. The fire pit outside was out of gas. My son said the pervious guest left the propane tank on.
Other than those small things WE ALL had a great stay!! Would definitely recommend and rebook in the future.

Family Reunion
We selected this property for a mini-family reunion (multiple age groups) and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House, cabin, and jacuzzi were very clean, rooms were quite spacious and there were enough gathering spots for folks to break off into smaller groups. Parking was ample. Arcade games and pool table were a hit with both kids and adults. Host was very responsive to questions. Had one issue with the TV cable going out that was quickly resolved. Location was ideal as was only about 10 min from main G'burg strip and grocery store was about 5 min away. House was far enough away to feel private but close to main attractions. Given the size of our group, we needed a more frequent trash pickup, but other than that, would definitely recommend this property.
