"The house was beautiful. The showers were great and easy to use. It was easy to communicate with the real estate agent when there was a question. The kitchen was well equipped and the front door lock/combination was easy to use once we got helpful advice. The beds were comfortable. We would highly recommend the cabin. "

"Nice place to stay with family."

"The cabin is in a good location. It is about a 15-minute drive from the city center and 15 minutes from Pigeon Forge. The kitchen is well equipped with all you need. That's said. The place could be a bit cleaner, as there was a lot of dust on the sofa. The lack of basic toiletries was disappointing. "

"The views are amazing. Very spacious and very quiet will be returning on my next family trip and to stay longer. "

"Property was well placed with a creek in the back with the balconies overlooking. Pool was refreshing. Lots of places to sit and enjoy the view. Room was spacious and well equipped with a small fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Location was also an advantage with being half mile from downtown. Also, the trolley stops right in front. Highly recommend."
