Cal Ripken Experience

We had a great time staying here!! The grill is amazing! The decor was nice! I do not always understand the really bad reviews. There are some things inside the home they do not have; however, recently in the last few VRBO’s we have stayed in the amenities have been minimal. I really think this is because people steal them and ruin it for others. If there is something specific you really must have just reach out to them before you book it and ask. That may help with any must haves.

Good place and convenient

The place was clean and very convenient to the Le Conte center. The amenities were lacking a bit. Like only one toilet paper roll per bathroom and we had to buy extras. No salt and pepper. No laundry detergent. Overall it was good because of the location but I would say it was just fine.

Great location and nice home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location is wonderful. We love the walking trail along the river. Home is very spacious and decorated so nicely! The cottage is very clean on the surface, but it could use a deep cleaning along the baseboards and exhaust fan in shower. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

The cottage was very clean and accessible for our trip. The only down side is no blankets, lack of pots and pans, and we are older and would prefer cable TV. Our local cable does not have an app, we do not have purchased apps to log into. So the TV's were useless to us and made our evenings very quite and missed football games.

Loved the location. House was super clean and maintained. Only minor request would be to have extra blankets. My parents stayed with us and the walk in showers and lack of steps was a huge bonus. Very nice property, highly recommend.

One of our most favorite stays!

Visited here for fiftieth anniversary and we loved walking into one of the most comfortable and immaculate places we have stayed. We love eating at The Old Mill which was a two minute walk. The back deck gets race track noise in the day, but mornings out there were wonderful for drinking coffee. Two mornings an eagle perched in the tree by the river right in front of us. Can’t wait to come back.

Unexpected Pleasure

This cottage was not what we expected. It was more than we expected. Great location in a quiet neighborhood with a stream located off the back of the property. Great deck and fire pit that because of the rain we didn’t get a chance to use. Close to the Mill shopping area. Lots of room for a two bedroom cottage. We would definitely recommend and would stay here again if available.

Lovely house

This house is absolutely amazing. The pictures online does not do it justice. The decor is beautiful and the location of this house is amazing. We walked over to the Old Mill area a few times while on our trip. We enjoyed sitting outside next to the water. I feel as if the owners of this house actually stayed here to make sure they had thought of everything, because this house had it all! We will never stay anywhere else when we visit the mountains. We are looking forward to our next trip staying at this WONDERFUL home. I highly recommend this house you would not be disappointed.

Perfect Location!!

We were absolutely pleased with everything with the cottage. It was so warm, cozy and welcoming, and the decor was amazing. I absolutely fell in love with all of it! Beds were so comfy !! As for as the location it was perfect! It was located in the middle of everything! Local restaurants we were able to walk to. All the attractions it was an easy drive. We enjoyed relaxing in the evenings, feeding the ducks on the back patio , listening to music and enjoying a cold beer ! We will definitely be back and will share our experience with all of our friends and family !

Perfect Cottage on the River

This was an amazing find for our family! We booked it for a week for a baseball tournament and my family had an amazing time. Fishing and swimming in the river and walking distance to all the shops and eateries in the Old Mill area! Very close to everything Pigeon Forge has to offer! The host was fantastic and even checked in with us during our stay to make sure everything was perfect! The house is beautiful inside and out with a beautiful deck, fireplace and of course the river! Would absolutely recommend this for a family get a way! We plan on booking again our next visit!
