Wasp infested
This property should not be on vrbo it gives the site a bad name. The host is very slow to response and very heartless. Despite the fact that the house was never clean spider web and hundreds of dead and live wasp mostly in the living room, dead roaches in the cubboard. My son got bitten by wasp and I told the host and he did nothing. I call vrbo about it they also try to call the host. I took some many photos of the wasp in the house we were able to kill most of them so we could have stayed in the house since it was Christmas and we had no where else to go plus the road to get to the cabin was nerve racking, steep and foggy. We keep saying the host will come but no one showed up. There is so many I could write that was wrong in this cabin. The only thing that kept us going was the veiw of the mountains. Please do not book this pleace it horrible

Great views
The drive up to the cabin is very steep with several sharp turns and a one lane road. We managed fine, but felt the description could have mentioned that. The view was beautiful, though. The cabin was nice, but there were a few maintenance issues. The knobs on the stove would turn on with the slightest bump. Felt it was a safety issue especially with children, had to check frequently that they weren't left on. The shower in the basement level could not be used because the door was broken and would not open. There is a washer and dryer, which is nice. However, the washer barely trickled when filling. We had to use a pitcher to help it fill so that it didnt take 3 hrs, especially since it was required to launder towels before leaving, which was fine, but frustrating and time consuming. Also, not mentioned in the listing is that you either have to take your trash with you or pay an additional 25 bucks to have it removed. But overall nice cabin in a pretty location.

The view is really absolutely beautiful. When you’re not used to it, the trip up and down the mountain was a real eye-opener. The host was very helpful and really easy to communicate with Just minutes from the casino and if you have little ones you’ll enjoy Santa land.

Nice place, hard to get to...
If you have a large truck, re-think driving it to this location. You will be making 3 pt turns going up the narrow mountain road. Small cars no problem! That being said, once you arrive it's great. There was not a number on the house to let you know for sure you were at the right place, but it is directly across from the Gadwall aterrace sign. The rooms were spacious, view was great. I wish we could have spent more time here honestly. All in all it was great. The cleaning fee seemed pretty high for what was expected of you at checkout and they had not deep cleaned for what seemed like awhile. It wasnt terrible but seemed like house had set vacant for awhile so it was dusty. Not a deal breaker though. Great place!

Wonderful Location!
This cabin was amazing! The gated community was private and peaceful. The roads were all paved, which is perfect (there were a few sharp turns, but since it's all paved, it wasn't bad). The kids were entertained the whole time with the pool table and the fire pit. We couldn't figure out the fire place, but that may be because we're Floridians and are not used to gas fireplaces! The only complaint I have was that this cabin was very loud. Oddly enough, it creaked all day and all night. Although my kids weren't bothered by it, it kept us up the first couple nights. We did get used to it, though! And the upstairs toilet wouldn't flush very well, but after plunging it for a couple days, we were able to pull a toothbrush out of the drain, which helped a bit! Overall, the location is PERFECT! We went to Gatlinburg one day and Asheville the next. It's so centrally located that you can go anywhere easily!
