This was for a last minute trip to go watch the Eclipse with the family. I was just looking for a place to sleep between hikes and waterfall adventures. The home was so beautiful that we found ourselves looking forward to getting back to the cabin after a long day of hiking. The views were amazing and we spent a lot of time out on the decks.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could possible need. i was a little worried about the fact that this was in a "development" but being that the cabin was at the top of the mountain it was very secluded. We saw bears ever day and night . they do keep their distance so as long as you keep yours they will continue on. The beds were great . You could tell that this place has an owner who uses it on occasion and cares about having everything available for his family and yours. the check in was a breeze. No problems or concerns at all . The owner was always a text away with very quick responses. We used to rent in Helen, Georgia every summer but this amazing area and cabin have convinced me that the extra few hours drive from Florida is well worth it. Can't wait to come back.

Loved our time spent at the cabin, sitting in the rocking chair enjoying the sunshine was perfect. Plant of space for the whole family and then some. Loved playing pool and fooseball. Kitchen island is perfect for game nights.

Loved the place. Great for families and a wonderful view. About 20 min from Gatlinburg which was perfect.

The cabin was well-equipped. Beds were comfortable. Beautifully decorated.

My 50th bday with my spouse and two other couples. Cabin was exactly as described. Owner was quick to reapond, kind and courteous on any communications during weather concerns to basic questions. Conveniently located to Downtown Gatlinburg, grocery and more. Can't say enough good things about this stay. Will definitely visit this cabin again as soon as we can!

We loved staying here for our annual Christmas trip. The cabin was perfect for our teen boys as they had the lower level. The response time for anything that was needed from John was so quick. We most definitely would stay here again!

Love the place definitely going again

This property is absolutely amazing and met all our needs

Had the pleasure of staying at the “escape from reality” cabin with my fiance for our wedding and mini honeymoon and was nothing short of impressed with how clean and nice it is. The pictures depict it exactly how it is and we all know that’s rare. John is an amazing host. He even did some research and recommended the chapel we ended up getting married in! He also left out a bottle of wine for us which we enjoyed in the hot tub! Absolutely will stay at John’s cabin again and highly recommend it! Thanks again John for all your hospitality!

Everything was thought about. Fully stocked kitchen, detergents, hygiene supplies, you name it. Painless check in/out. I had one question, during a holiday week mind you, and had a response from the host within minutes. Highly recommended!

7 person hot tub was amazing !! We had beautiful views of the mountains and saw a couple bears. Everything in the pics was even better then advertised. Nicest VRBO we have ever stayed. The host contacted us and touched base to make sure we were happy. Will most definitely stay here again when we visit Gatlinburg. Thanks for your generosity John (:

This cabin was one of the cleanest cabins we have stayed in!.. great game room and amazing hot tub that seats 8.... John was an amazing host and very responsive if we had a question. Quiet and fairly private even though cabins are close by... Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Thanks to John and his wife for sharing their beautiful cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was just as nice as the pictures showed. It is very spacious and open. The beds were amazing. We loved the hot tub! To top it off we even saw a bear walking around the cabin one morning. We would definitely recommend this place!

This was such an unforgettable experience! This property sits up in the smoky mountains with an incredible view! Check in was seamless as was communication with the owner. We loved the pool table and hot tub, and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Thank you so much for wonderful stay!!

This cabin has an excellent location. Beautiful surrounding area with lots of wildlife. We loved the comfort of home away from home. Cabin is exactly as pictured.

The cabin was amazing!!! It was very clean with comfortable beds and fully stocked kitchen with all the necessities to cook. The kids enjoyed all the games and the pool table. The hot tub was so relaxing. We saw bears on three different occasions. The first time, a medium-sized bear walked over to the grill and tried to remove the covering. The second time, a much bigger bear walked over to our car, opened the door (we forgot the number one rule - lock your car doors) and jumped inside. We quickly set off the alarm and he jumped out of the car and headed towards the porch. Of course we all ran inside like the sky was falling. The third time, we got brave and grilled. The whole time a bear walked back and fourth in the bushes in hopes of a tasty steak. We spent the next 15 screaming and yelling to scare off the bear and not lose our steaks to the persistent animal. We will definitely rent here again. Wonderful, fun and exciting memories were made.

We loved the location and the cabin was great. Even seen a bear. Would stay there again for sure.

This cabin is super cleand and looks just like it does in the photos - no camera tricks. Light and airy, furniture is nice and the beds are comfortable. Nice touches throughout - hand soap, tissues, coffee, even frosty glasses in the freezer. My 17yo camped out downstairs and we all used the game room. It is a little bit of a drive to Gatlinburg but the scenery is worth it. Views from the upstairs deck are fantastic. Out first night watched the moon "set" over the smoky mountains. We did see two bears in the neighborhood but they were doing their own thing. Owner was extremely responsive with anything we needed. I would highly recommend this place - you won't be disappointed!

My family and I (9 mos. To 60 yrs old...10 total guests) had a great time at this cabin. Plenty for everyone to do, great view, nice hot tub, pool table, etc...Saw bears on 2 occasions, both times out on the roadside of the cabin, one actually came up onto the porch. Lots of space for all of us. Would recommend this place to anyone with a larger group wanting to rent one cabin.

Everyone loved the cabin. The views and sounds of nature were amazing.

Short family fun time in Gatlinburg before the Memorial Day holiday. First time to stay in this cabin. Everything was very nice and was “as advertised”. Very clean rooms all throughout the cabin. Even some unexpected extras were provided, e.g., K cup coffee, creamers, frozen pizza, bottled water, and snacks. Would definitely stay again!

I am so sad about this stay. The cabin was beautiful but it was not worth all the BED BUG BITES we received upon staying and all the COCKROACHES we seen and killed. All to not get our deposit back because there was a little confetti on the ground that I swept 3 times! My little sister has sensitive skin and she left with bed bug bites all over her. I just want people to be aware of the bed bugs that was the main problem especially on the couch in the living room and the king size bed upstairs and the queen bed on the main floor.

My family enjoyed our cabin stay. The property was very nice… clean and well stocked. The living area was comfortable, and the kitchen was roomy. We enjoyed the porch and the three decks. Game room in the basement was very nice. The bedrooms had very comfortable beds. Two of he bathrooms were very spacious, had great showers, and nice towels. The other bathroom was nice, just not as luxurious. It was not very quiet between floors. Guests might like to bring a sleep machine or use a white noise app on their phones. Overall, the cabin is an extremely nice place to get away and relax. My family enthusiastically recommends.

Highly recommend staying here! The house was clean and well equipped from the bathrooms to the kitchen to the outdoor lounging areas. The game room has an everything you need for family fun evenings. It’s a short drive into Gatlinburg but we found the local restaurants to be better - Trish’s, Crystalls on the river (very large portions) - both had very friendly staff… if eating in town make a reservation! We had daily early morning bear visits so be aware of your surroundings and have your camera ready. We will be back for sure.

The cabin has everything we needed for a relaxing week in the mountains. Saw 2 bears the first day.

Very nice cabin. Well stocked in all areas. Our kids enjoyed the pool table in the basement as well as the hot tub. Plenty of room for a large family. I will say…you can hear EVERTHING throughout the entire house. If someone is in the basement, you will hear them on the top floor. Just know that before you plan your stay. John was quick to respond to any questions. Very friendly and helpful!

We stayed here for my son’s senior spring break. He loved the cabin, especially the hot tub. The cabin was wonderful! It was clean and so beautiful! It felt homey and we all loved it. My favorite was sitting out on the patio and enjoying nature. We will definitely be back! 😁

This was our first vacation in over 3 years with our 4 kiddos and it was amazing. The cabin was immaculate, decorated beautifully, located in the mountains and the views were incredible to wake up to everyday. The owners are awesome, great communication. Sitting in the hot tub looking out into the mountains was so relaxing, it's just what we needed. So much to do for the kids while we were there, even in rainy days they could play pool, arcade games, etc. Kitchen had everything we needed and we were able to bbq. Definitely will be going back. Loved every second of the trip, Gatlinburg and the cabin! Thank you guys!

Great property and great owner. The listing is 100% accurate. It is very clean and has all of the listed items. Great for kids with the tri level to include the hot tub and game room. Great view of the mountains and location is wonderful. About a 20 minute drive to Food City and just a little further to downtown GB. Highly recommend taking your first round of groceries up with you on the way in to save that first trip out unless you intend to leave. Great house!

We had such a fun time! My children were on the hunt for bears the entire trip! We loved the cabin so much!

Much needed vacation!

Beautiful property and location! Just enough space for the family. Property manager was super nice and helped in every way possible. Definitely a must stay!
