Excellent cabin (if you don't mind steep driveways)

This was our second time to stay here and we couldn't have been more pleased. The fact that there are two woodburning fireplaces is what keeps us coming back. The location is fantastic also. The hosts were very quick to respond to our needs during our stay, so we will definitely be back again!

Tranquil cabin

The cabin is lovely even better that the online pictures show. Sophia, the host responded within minutes of being contacted. You can sit on the porch and safely see bears. Also as over people have said, the driveway is a challenge but there is parking at street level near the cabin.

Disliked: Communication
The cabin was very nice and clean. But the view from the porch was of a over filled dumpster with garbage all over the ground around it. Also, we have an AWD Honda Pilot and we couldn’t get up the driveway to the cabin. We parked across the road at another property and walked up to our cabin. We stayed the first night but didn’t go back. We booked a hotel room at the Marriott in Gatlinburg for the remaining nights.

Our stay was relaxing!

Very clean cabin with lots of personal touches. Conviences were carefully thought out, and the hosts were prompt and very nice. The fireplaces were wonderful! A couple things would have improved our stay. A king sized bed perhaps, with a more comfortable mattress? The outside lights weren't working, which made it hard to see at night. The hot tub leaked, requiring us to add water to it before each use. The driveway was very steep, which could be hazardous during rain or snow. Overall it was a nice stay and relaxing!

Awesome Cabin

Everything about this cabin was perfect, from the location, to the two wood burning fireplaces, to the hot tub outside, and the communication with the property owner! Only thing I will say, is if you plan on going during the winter months, be sure you’ve got 4wheel drive! The owner did send someone out to shovel our driveway and put ice melt on the driveway, but even with that the driveway was so steep we needed 4wheel to get up. Don’t let the driveway detour you from booking with her though, the cabin is absolutely perfect!!! Just don’t show up in a Toyota Prius, because you may not make it up :) we will definitely be back!!

Great Basics but Reluctant hospitality

This is a hard review to write because the overall design of the house is lovely and comfortable. The upstairs suite is especially inviting. The location is excellent for those wanting to use the national park.But there were some very off-putting things about the house that led us to feel that the owners really didn't care about the rental or welcoming visitors. Few were big but added together it was irritating.Some things just didn't work. The front burner on the stove didn't function, The bathtub spa upstairs had jets that didn't work. The hot water heater couldn't deliver enough hot water to do more than warm your feet. Some things just felt penny-pinching. There were only 2 table knives and a few forks. The knife set was terribly dull. There was absolutely nothing stocked i the refrigerator or cupboards. No type of cooking oil, spices, or even waters. Bare bones. Even the coffee supplies consisted of exactly 1 filter for each day we stayed and three dreadful coffee packets that were supposed to be for 4 but really made only 2 cups if you wanted more than brown water. Not even salt and pepper. I couldn't find the hair dryer anywhere and contacted the host twice with no replies. We DID have a reply early when I lost the key code directions from my phone and she did reply immediately for which I was grateful. The driveway which is mentioned in the descriptions is truly STEEP.. We have 4wd and had to back up and try it again at least twice. It was concerning.

The property looks exactly like the photos online. Our problem with the property is that the hot tub is back off in a corner with spiderwebs everywhere but, eventually I tried it, and only two of the jets things work and it was some type of flim in the water, which, I didn't see until I turned on the light. Going on the inside there was a dead bug in the refrigerator and two of the burners were not working on the stove. Going upstairs to the jacuzzi it was a nightmare my husband turned it on and a lot of black stuff shot out, I'm glad I wasn't sitting down in it. Then there were mouse droppings on the bed and in the bathroom. We actually seen him run under the door. My husband and I looked at each other and was like "did you see that." The driveway is crazy but to the owners credit she did mention it was steep. My anxiety was through the roof dealing with this driveway. And then we left on the 2nd day and upon returning the code wouldn't open the door smh. Reached out to the owner and she apologized and had us open it manually. More steps for us to be able to get in, which I will not disclose. Maintenance never showed up. So, in conclusion the money spent for the amenities was wasted on this property. Because of the owners quick response to my text and the property looks just like the pictures online I'm giving 2 stars. Hopefully I will be able to upload some pictures later.
