This property is spacious, cozy and so clean. I almost drew up adoption papers, I wanted to be their very old child ☺️ , the owners thought of EVERYTHING !!! We celebrated my daddy's 79th birthday overlooking the breathtaking smoky mountains. We are planning to return next year for sure .

This property was ideal for our crew! Plenty of room for our group to sleep comfortably in each room. Kitchen was stocked with mostly what we needed to cook to feed the group. Multiple porch swings on the different decks and patios were so nice for morning coffee solitude or chats. The hot tub is spacious and the views of the mountains were breathtaking! We loved the wood furniture and the attention to detail with the comforters and decor. We had multiple bear sightings, which was so fun for young and old. From the bear greeting us when we arrived to the little bear sending us off at our departure. It was a SUPER cool experience to see so closely. The bears would leave when we got loud, so we didn’t have any safety concerns. Overall this lodge was perfect for our large group, fun for the adults and kids. It was nice, but didn’t feel like a museum. It was very comfy and cozy. Host was very responsive. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time staying here with our softball team, the owner was amazing at communication, the road up was rough but the views were well worth it. I would stay here again.

My family and I had an amazing vacation! The views are amazing from the house!! We were welcomed by a bear that was around the property during our stay but kept its distance. Ed was so helpful with any questions or anything we needed. We can’t wait to visit again soon!

WE loved this place because it had plenty of bedrooms and it was very private but close to town. Literally on the side of the mountain and bears visited everyday.

First of all Ed does a great job as a host. He is very prompt to answer any questions you may have. My gamily of 13 (children & grandchildren) had a great time. This cabin has fantastic views of the Great Smokie Mountains like none other. It is just 5 minutes away from the heart of Gatlinburg, yet you feel like you are in a secluded area (which you are). There are no neighboring cabins on top of you. Very isolated. The climb up the road is a little rough, but don't let that stop you. It makes you feel like you are really going somewhere and adds to the overall charm. Sort of off the grid. And when you get to the cabin, it will be worth it. All kinds of amenities for the whole family and large groups. And best of all, the bears did not disappoint. They visited everyday. This really is a one of a kind place. Can't wait to go back someday.

We had 11 people, aged 12 and up, and we all enjoyed the cabin. It's very roomy, we loved that everyone had plenty of space, and the cabin was so close to town. The hot tub is huge, and the view is unbeatable - and I've stayed in dozens of cabins. Absolutely recommend this place! We had a couple of small issues, but were able to get things worked out with the owner with a bit of persistence. Thank you for a nice stay!
