Description was perfect. The cabin was perfectly clean and beautifully decorated. The view was unbelievable and so much nicer than other places we considered.

We have traveled many places in the world. Usually we stay in hotels but in certain niche places we use VRBO. By far, this VRBO is the best we have ever stayed in. Not only is the location and view amazing but the house itself is perfect. Everything is immaculate and the owners have thought of everything to make your trip seamless. The beds were SO comfortable- even my 10 and 14 year old boys commented on how comfortable they were along with the blacked out curtains. We enjoyed being so close to everything but far enough away from the “tourism” in Gatlinburg. I think we could have sat outside all day every day and just talked and enjoyed the views but we also enjoyed the game room and the karaoke. I personally loved the drawer and closet space as well. I would highly recommend Swinging on a Star to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Gatlinburg. The owner went above and beyond to make our trip perfect - we are already looking at dates to come back again!

This cabin was perfect! Views are amazing! Beds were comfy, showers were great. The cabin was clean and super easy to get to, the circle driveway was so nice. The swing on the deck was a huge hit..not only with the kiddos but my husband! The karaoke in the media room gave us some great entertainment. We cannot wait to book with Cathie again! She was the best host and super responsive.

We came to the Mountains to relax and recharge. Swingin on A Star did not disappoint!! The cabin is cozy, with a great location and did I mention the VIEW!!! Cathie made us feel like family that she invited to stay at her cabin for the week. She was very attentive!! We could go on and on......Great week!!!!! Thanks Cathie!!

Wonderful! The cabin was perfect! It had everything we needed and the VRBO description was right on! The view of the mountains was great, the hot tub was great after hiking and we all had plenty of our own space to relax.
The cabin is a short drive from downtown Gatlinburg, and even shorter drive to a grocery store and liquor store. Perfect all around!
5.0
The view from the cabin was very beautiful. The privacy of the location and checking in/out was perfect for what my family wanted. There was a big enough back yard for the kids to play. The hot tub had privacy from neighbors. All the TVs could be logged into streaming services. There were plenty of towels and blankets for a whole family to use. This location was close to Gatlinburg and the Smokey Mountain National Park. Sevierville is about 30 minutes away with normal spring break traffic.

Swinging on a Star is beautiful. Cathie has everything you could ever need and more to make you feel right at home. It was decorated beautifully and it was so neat and clean. The beds are super comfy,I wish we had more time. My boys loved the game room. The view is amazing! We never got tired of it. Soaking in the hot tub looking at the mountains was the best! My husband and son even got to see a bear in the yard our 2nd night there. We had karaoke nights and movie night. There is so much to do! We spent a day downtown Gatlinburg it was a quick 5 minutes away. Swinging on a Star has it all, we can't wait to return!

Our vacation rental was truly amazing at Swingin' On A Star. First of all, our host was friendly, accommodating, and welcoming to our family from the moment we booked our vacation to the check-out process. She made sure we were taken care of as soon as we arrived and personable for any needs we had. As we pulled up, the immediate appeal of the cabin and the breathtaking view of the mountains blew us away. The home overlooks the Smokey Mountains, and the entire backyard faces a breathtaking view. It was peaceful, quiet, and relaxing in the backyard. The porch swings, chairs, and jacuzzi made the relaxing atmosphere pleasurable. As you enter the rental, the home is perfectly decorated for the mountain experience. FULLY accommodating in every room with many amenities to support your vacation stay. The decor gives you a welcoming feel while comforting to know the host made the extra effort to ensure you feel at home while vacationing in the mountains. We did not want to leave daily to go explore as we wanted to enjoy the rental. The beds and linens were quality and extremely comfortable which made our long days of exploring worth it. The game room and media room were our favorite along with the jacuzzi. Many wonderful activities to use when you have downtime to relax and have fun. We loved the pool table and the old-school games such as Pac-Man. We appreciate the extra effort our host provides and will DEFINITELY return for our next vacation.

We came for a get away in January when there was snow everywhere and it was incredible! The views were amazing! The cabin had everything we needed and more! Being from the South we were concerned with what the road conditions would be with there being so much snow, but every morning snow plows went through and the roads were so easy and safe to drive on! We will definitely be back with our kids!
5.0
After locating this property on Vrbo, including all reviews, our expectations were very high. Honestly, the cabin exceeded those expectations! The kitchen was furnished with high-end appliances, the bathrooms were very nice with good water pressure, and we were able to utilize our YouTubeTV streaming services on the 2 TVs we utilized! Jim, in-charge maintenence, had the TVs on ready for Super Bowl Sunday!
Cathie, our Property Manager, was absolutely a delight to work with, and very knowledgeable about not only the property itself, but, with all the places to eat and visit! We truly enjoyed our 50th wedding anniversary and looking forward to returning for more fun times!

A well appointed cabin with a spectacular view - this property has it all! Clean hot tub overlooking the mountains, game room and plenty of space. Particularly liked the abundance of bathrooms - every room has one! The floor plan is ideal! The decorations are so fun - very thoughtfully laid out. And we loved the convenience of parking - there’s a level roundabout out front. Also incredibly well located - you feel like you’re mountain remote but you are only 7 minutes from tons of shopping and food!
We have stayed at several vacation rentals in the area and this one is by far our favorite!

The most beautiful cabin - just like the pictures - in an outstanding location - peaceful and serene with an unobstructed view of Mount LeConte - yet less than a 5 minute drive to restaurants and stores - including Gatlinburg's arts and crafts community. The cabin was beautifully decorated for Fall and was spotless. The comfortable bedding and blackout curtains ensured the best sleep I have had in ages ! We enjoyed watching a couple movies in the media room, and also soaking in the private hot tub. Cathie was the best owner ever - thank you for sharing your second home with us - we hope to come soon !

This cabin was easy to get to from light #3 in Gatlinburg off 321. Food city, various restaurants and stores within a short drive of the cabin to pick up anything you might need on the way. The cabin welcomes you with a circular drive and a large bear statue. A few steps up to the large porch that wraps around to the door and on further to the amazing views of the mountains. The porches were well appointed with comfortable seating,swing, table and a hot tub. Inside the cabin is decorated to make you feel right at home. The kitchen had everything we needed to fix meals there at the cabin. Living room had a large tv with comfortable seating and a fireplace for those chilly nites. There is also a media room with a large sectional and movies, and even a karaoke setup. It was nice that each bedroom has its own closet, bath, ceiling fan and TV within. We really enjoyed the game room in the loft area, spent alot of time playing pool, darts, checkers and Pac-Man. Everything was super clean and Cathie was a great host to work with from the ease of making the reservations, to when we arrived and she checked in to see that everything was okay to thanking us upon departure for staying with her! This was a great place to stay! We will be back!

The view is breathtaking! Honestly looks like something out of a painting! The parking was so convenient and easy to get to. Our Pomeranian, Charlie, had a BLAST! If we weren’t on the back porch, we were in the theater room with a glass of wine. We will always remember our stay here and will definitely be back!

We really enjoyed our time at the cabin! The view is amazing! I took probably 20 pictures at different times of the day because depending on the sun it looks a little different!! We saw a mama bear and baby cubs in the backyard one afternoon, They were just passing through. The inside is decorated cute and comfortable. It had everything you would need. It’s nice that each bedroom has its own bathroom. Would stay again. Cathy was wonderful to work with!

This is our second time at this cabin, and it definitely won’t be our last! We love everything about it…It is cozy and comfortable, beautiful inside and out! We love the regular decor, and also the fact that it was decorated for the season…Such a special touch. The mountain views from the decks can’t be beat! It’s even better than the photos. Everything is super clean, too, which we really appreciate! Cathie is so easy to communicate with and extremely welcoming, making it a joy to work with her. Can’t wait to come back!

The cabin was amazing! All as described, including the view. Very clean and up to date. Cathie, the owner, was excellent! She checked in on us via texts and made herself available if we needed anything. However, we did not need anything during our stay. The check in, check out procedure was seamless. I would recommend this cabin to family and friends and I would go back for certain. Our kids loved it too!

This property has amazing views no matter where you are standing. The bedrooms have extremely comfortable beds with blackout curtains which was great for sleeping in or an afternoon nap. Also the host made it very easy to communicate with her, even gave us some great ideas for hiking. We would definitely stay there again.

This home is beautiful. The owner has paid so much attention to detail. The home is comfortable, cozy, and has amazing views. You are 5 minutes to downtown Gaitlinburg and a short drive to Pigeon Forge. Cathie is wonderful with communication. I highly recommend staying at this property!
5.0
Quiet area (far enough from busy but close enough to be there in minutes) in Arts and Crafts Community, very clean cabin beautifully decorated, lots of room, property owner great to work with. But probably best of all is that view from the back decks (including from the hot tub)! We would definitely stay here again!
5.0
We’ve traveled to Gatlinburg several times and this cabin had the best view so far. Quiet area. Clean, beautiful cabin. Exactly as listed. Short drive to town. We got to visit our favorite local restaurant Three Jimmy’s. Cathie has been wonderful to work with. She checked in ahead of our trip and again after we arrived to ensure we made it safely and to make sure we had all we needed. Would highly recommend!! We’ll be back again.

Peaceful, calm, relaxing...outstanding view, absolutely beautiful cabin. From sitting on the porch drinking my morning coffee, shopping the local craft stores, having the perfect view from the dining table and finishing the day in the hot tub and then a good movie in the awesome media room then off to dream land in the comfy beds. This was the best getaway trip we had in a long time. See you soon "Swingin' on a Star".

This place is exactly as described. It was easy to find and get to. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. It is very beautifully decorated. I could have sat on the porches and looked at the view all day. Best view from a cabin that I have ever stayed at. My husband and I hope to be able to stay again in the future. It was a wonderful experience.

This is a breathtaking property, thoughtfully designed and decorated. The media room, pool table and hot tub were features that contributed to our family time enjoyment! The view alone is worth the trip!
5.0
We had an excellent stay at Swinging on a Star for our spring break trip. The cabin had plenty of space for our family of 4. It is wonderfully decorated , well stocked with the essentials and felt like home for our week. The kids loved the loft area with a pool table, video games, darts and a singing deer! We loved using the hot tub everyday after hiking or lots of walking. This cabin is in a great location. Far enough from the main drag in Gatlinburg to be nice, quiet and peaceful but close enough that you can be to all the attractions in town within minutes. The view of the Smoky Mountains is AMAZING! Cathie, the owner, was wonderful and checked in with us to make sure everything was good and was quick to respond when we had a question. This cabin will not disappoint! We hope to be back!
