It was great!!! There was a really nice hike really close nearby in Cosby, and we were not even an hour from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge! The hot tub out back was also a big plus and the place was huge and very accommodating!!
Overall the property was very nice and the host great and responded quickly. Loved the fire pit and we spent every night with family around a fire. However there were a few deficiencies that we noticed. The lack silverware for a home that can accommodate 30 people. (4 forks, 4 spoons…)Lots of pan lids but not a lot of pans to go with them. (We luckily brought our own cookware)Remote controls for TV’s…we could only find one for each floor to share among the ROKU TV’s. Hot tub chlorinator was extremely dirty with mold. No really usable pool sticks (no tips)Thin linens and at least one set had stains
My family and I stayed at this rental property last month during our family vacation and it was amazing! The host was very responsive when we encountered some minor issues.
Weekend getaway with family was a huge success! The cabin and location were perfect … rainy weather didn’t spoil our fun with the indoor pool, hot tub, pool table and theater room! Something for everyone and we enjoyed every bit this cabin has to offer.
We were so excited to enjoy the cabin, pool and firepit. Loved sitting outside together and enjoying the peace and quiet. Perfect location for peace and close enough to be anywhere you what to go in 20 minutes or less.
Plenty of sleeping room for our group of 12 adults and 9 children. The pool was a big hit, as was the large dining table that we could all sit down together. The theater room was also nice, as was the pool table and arcade game. It rained during our trip so we didn't get to use the fire pit area but it was nice as well.
We booked this vacation to celebrate our 50th Anniversary with our children and grandchildren. We had a terrific time swimming, watching movies in the theater, shooting pool and playing arcade and video games, smores around the fire, exploring the area trails and waterfalls and relaxing in the hot tub. Everyone enjoyed the week.
This property has everything you need for a proper getaway. Our group of friends and family all stayed for two nights. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool the most and probably spent the majority of time there. We brought board games and had plenty of room at the big dining room table for 8 players comfortably. The dining room table fit our entire party for dinner which we enjoyed comfortably. The ceilings are really quite something. All in all I would give the stay a 10. The host contact a 10 and our trip a 10!
We had a great experience. We had 7 adults, one 11 year old and two under 2. Plently of space where you can go off back youself and have quite time if you need. It rained one whole day we where there so we had a chill day where we were in the pool all day long. The 11 year old was in the pool EVERYDAY so needless to say he is water logged. All in all we had a very good stay.
The house is beautiful and located in a quiet neighborhood. The outdoor space, pool, porches and hot tub were enjoyed immensely and our group of 15 (8 adults and 7 children age 7-15) had a terrific stay here. The bunk room was a huggggeeee hit with the kids. There were a few minor issues with the game area given that the arcade game and foosball table weren’t really functional and the pool table was torn, but the kids go creative and we found other ways to spend our time. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen a perfect place to gather. There is room for improvement as I think there is with any strictly rental property, but overall we had a terrific stay between Christmas and New years and would certainly stay again.
The property was nice. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The pool was a huge hit with my grandkids! But a few of them cut their foot because of broken tiles around the pool. There wasn’t a lot of silverware or dishes for all of us especially since the dishwasher didn’t work. We at breakfast and lunch at the cabin so that was a lot dishes. In the game room we had another cut because of a point end on one of the handles to the fuse ball table . There were rips in the pool table making it hard to play pool.i did let the property manager know and he was nice but nothing was done while we were there.

Pool table was ripped, arcade game didn't work, foosball table had broken handles so we couldn't utilize the game area. Tiles around pool we loose and many broken, they became extremely slick when wet...very dangerous! Bedroom were beautiful and clean. This is NOT a property with satellite TV, we had to contact management due to only 2 tvs working since they were smart tvs. Had to install Roku devices on the remaining televisions that management had delivered to the property. T .TTheater room
We didn’t get to utilize the pool at all because the temperature was too cool. They tried to raise the temp but something kept breaking so it wasn’t very heated. We barely got to use the hot tub because it wasn’t working, but Pam did a great job trying her best to get it working for us. Unfortunately the hot tub was cloudy and left our suits smelling like mildew the one time we did get to use it.
There was black mold in the bunkhouse bathroom.. Also, the shower lining was disgusting in the other bathroom upstairs. I made sure to list these things in hopes that the cleaners can become aware and make sure it’s gone for the next guests!
Despite these things, my family and I enjoyed our Christmas stay here! Pam was absolutely wonderful and very generous in trying to fix the hot tub situation. We definitely wish we could’ve had the pool and hot tub to use, but there was a lot to entertain us still. We had a great time and I would recommend any of Pam’s locations, she is a fabulous host and does her best to solve any issues!

Beware of Host
We stayed at this location for 2 days and it accommodates quite a number of people comfortably. The stay overall was fine although the amenities posted aren't as they look in photos. 1. Barbecue Grill is biggest flop. It is charcoal coal, not mentioned anywhere and completely rusted. Not fir for use.2. Some of the appliances at the property dont work as expected. For eg: Dishwasher, Washer/Dryer3. Pool table is ripped offPros: Indoor Pool and Hot Tub are pretty good in condition.The most important fallout I need to mention here is Host. They get the rental signed prior to stay but try to cheat you post you vacate on the basis of that. Rental doc says you need to pay for damages and also damaged linens within property. Then they come up with unknown damages or which were already damaged prior to your stay and try to charge your card with additional fees, more than a day's rental. If you refuse to agree on their charges, they forcefully charge the fee on basis of your card shared with Vrbo.
While our family had a nice visit and enjoyed the quieter side of the GSMNP, we shared our concerns with the host regarding the cabin's cleanliness. It was not clean.The cabin has plenty of sleeping space, but not a large living room or porch seating for large groups. The theater room and bunk room were enjoyed by the kids. Unfortunately, there are no curtains or blinds in the bunk room, which did not help in the kids sleeping past sunrise.The host seemed receptive to feedback, and if issues are addressed, we would definitely go back, but if not, we would go elsewhere.
Our family had a wonderful stay with a smooth check-in and check-out process. All of the amenities worked great! The host was very easy to communicate with and if there was any issues with the property they sent their maintenance crew out quickly to solve the problem. Overall amazing experience, we plan to come back again in the near future!
House was to small for us 23 people, they needed to have garbage pick up more often than one time with that many people the pool area is very small big spiderwebs in the windowsills and the back of the door leading into the house could’ve been painted, rusty looking on bottom of door, backyard very small but we made it work. Had a fun time with our family.
Everything about this stay was perfect! We wanted a family retreat with our children and grandchildren. This cabin offered more than we anticipated. We didn’t leave during the stay, we swam, played games, played pool and enjoyed the theater and the hot tub. Plus we cooked some amazing family favorites. This was a much needed family gathering that has now made us realize we will be doing the same thing several times a year. The cabin is absolutely beautiful, clean and had everything that was listed. Communication was at best from making sure we had arrived good and had no issues getting in to checking in the night before we left. We are very grateful and had a blessed stay. Thank you very much!
The cabin was nice had a few issues with the TV’s when we arrived but they sent someone out to help. They need to do some updating with the furniture couch was very uncomfortable and the bedding was full of dog hair. But we really enjoyed ourselves. We would rent again soon. Hopefully they will update cabin
We stayed here for my son's wedding and held the reception at the cabin. It was perfect for a large group and everyone had a great time. We loved the pool and theater room.
