Great place with a view and hot tub!

Lovely little cabin with an awesome view and even more awesome hot tub. We had a great time. Note that you will most likely need a 4x4 to get up to this cabin. It's private and I felt safe at the site. This was my 2nd stay on the mountain but in a different cabin. I will most likely stay at this cabin or a different one on the same mountain property in the future. Owners seem friendly and down to earth which is always nice.

Absolutely gorgeous

From the outside, this cabin appears to be small and simple. From the inside, however, is a beautiful and charming place to stay. I thoroughly enjoyed the views and space in my one night stay. My only negative was the road leading to the space. There were two spots where you almost require an AWD vehicle to get here. This isn’t an issue of the owner but more a personal issue. Overall, I’m extremely happy with my stay and plan on attempting to reserve for future stays.

Very cool!

The cabin was pretty much exactly as the listing describes. They have added a gazebo/ roof over the grill and outdoor table which was really nice even though we weren’t there long enough to use it. The cabin was clean and had the basics for cooking. The steps to the loft bed were a bit steep which wasn’t a problem for us but is something to keep in mind. Overall we had a great stay!

Great location

We had a wonderful, relaxing time. Great location, easy scenic drive to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Only issue was the overall cleanliness. The hot tub needed some TLC. There were no sheets on our bed, just a pile of used sheets, towels, and blankets. We were glad that we brought our own sheets, pillows, and blankets.

Cute little shack!

This was a very cute shack! Overall my husband and I enjoyed ourselves but the cleanliness definitely was disappointing for the price we paid. There was hair upon check in on the sheets that weren’t ours, cob webs in the middle of the ceiling between the two lofts, the hot tub didn’t have the chlorine like it said it was supposed to on the sign and it did look as it had been used and not properly cleaned prior to our arrival, there was some old food stuck on the plates..the place has a peaceful charm and was very cute but the cleanliness was a little disappointing.

A peaceful adventure

The check in process was simple and easy. However, arriving when the sun is still up is ideal. Take your time and make sure you have AWD/4WD. Some of the roads are narrow and hard to navigate, especially in the rain. Without AWD be prepared to hike. You will wish you didn’t forget something in the car. 😊 The house is adorable and has everything you need. All of the little extras provided, are awesome. The hot tub was clean and ready to go. The location is perfect for anything you want to do in the area. We will definitely stay again.

This was an amazing place to stay great views of the mountains i am definitely going back well worth the cost. There is only one thing that other people may have troubles with is the access it is way up in the mountains and the drive is a little steep and nerve racking but i loved it other may not i give this place 4 out of 5 only because other people may have trouble getting up the drive i had an amazing time around Newport also juat a short drive to Gatlinburg and pigeon forage

If youre lucky you'll get to say hi to their beautiful sweet german sheppard Heidi. Friendly nearby atmosphere. Bring a car youre confident can make it up a steep gravel drive.
