The Cabin was perfect! Very clean and perfect location to the national park and to downtown Gatlinburg! Check in process was seamless and communication during the stay was available if needed… not one complaint! Can’t wait to come back!

This is one of the best places we stayed so far! Very cozy, super clean, very well taken care of and had everything that needed for a stay. Great location, close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Loved view from bathrooms, jacuzzi and fire pit. Kids loved game room!

The property is perfect and the amenities are spot on. The drive up that mountain is the only downside. Make sure you take everything you need the first trip up.

First of all, I do want to say that the drive to the cabin is very, very steep and has a narrow road. Other than the drive up the cabin was extraordinary and very well kept. The balcony up top is a great place to sit and have your coffee and just listen to the wildlife. Our first night there we did see 6 bear near the cabin so if you want to see wildlife I think you’ll see it here. We really enjoyed our stay!

We had an excellent experience. The cabin is exactly as described. We have stayed at many and this one had the best stocked kitchen. You can tell they have put thought into the needs of the families that stay there. We would definitely recommend!

We loved the cabin and really enjoyed our stay. It was perfectly decorated for the season. Make sure you arrive during the daylight though, we had a little bit of a white knuckle drive up the mountain as we arrived late into the evening.

It was a very nice place but what stood out for me was the little things, like a good selection of seasonings to all the games to play.

The home and property were equally beautiful. Very clean and modern but with the cabin feel we love. Very comfortable beds and furniture. Our teen girls also loved it! My husband and I spent a lot of time on the screened in porch sipping coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. It was the perfect setting. 😊

My wife and i enjoyed our stay at this the cabin. It is a newer , well kept and clean cabin.it has several extra amenities to entertain any age level. It is very quite with few close neighbors which we enjoyed as we hung out mostly on the screened in porchin the evening and watched a couple of movies. We plan on returning soon for another stay.nancy was easy to contact and very responsive to any need or concerns we had.

This cabin is beautiful! It is quiet and peaceful after a day in the city or hiking. It's clean and we'll stocked with supplies for cooking/grilling. We enjoyed our stay very much. The location between Gatlinburg and pigeon forge is really nice, you can easily get to either pretty quickly. The upstairs game room was a family family. I'd definitely recommend staying here. We'll be returning someday soon

Overall excellent experience. We were able to spot a bear next to the cabin as well. Extra blind for kitchen/patio door could have added the coziness/safety. Basic toiletries and towels were provided which was good but Makeup towels were not that clean and had hair on it!! But overall cleanliness was really good. Would strongly recommend.

We had a wonderful 25th anniversary stay at Aunt Lib’s Shine Shack! More room than we needed for 2, for sure, but we used and enjoyed it all! Home away from home. We enjoyed the breeze in the enclosed sunroom and the post-hke soaks in the hot tub! My husband enjoyed trying to make high scores on the game table while I grabbed a great read from Nancy’s book selection. We saw 7 bear during our stay and got many wonderful steps in on nearby trails… and ate and drank well along the way! We will be back!!! Highly recommend!!! Thanks Nancy :-)

We planned a couples trip to experience the Smokey Mountains. The stay was perfect. The cabin had everything you could think of. It’s quite the experience driving in the mountains but we adjusted quickly. We even had a Bear and baby cub only a few yards away from the cabin making its way though. We enjoyed all the hiking. Favorite place to eat was the Local Goat in Pigeon Forge. We enjoyed the General Store there for souvenir shopping as the stuff was not tacky.
