The host was excellent! He was very responsive, quickly addressing every question. The Vrbo ad says “5 minute walk to the Parkway” in Gatlinburg. No, it’s 0.6 miles to the Parkway, about a 12-15 minute walk. The location is good, though, with the Parkway (downtown strip) fairly close in one direction and the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail in the opposite direction. The cabin is quaint and historic, though that does mean the bathrooms and the kitchen are on the small size.

Had a great time with family. Gatlinburg was wonderful grandkids had a lot of fun with each other. The house is cute, pictures a bit miss leading, but it worked for us. Did not like everyone downstairs from me but it worked for the week. Outside stairs need a light at the bottom for safety. The only complaint I would have is NO place to have morning coffee, I had to sit inside, there was no place to sit outside in the morning or anytime. There were rockers downstairs full of cobwebs and bugs, but nothing upstairs for me to sit. The home is clean comfortable beds, small kitchen, crazy parking, close to town if you are in shape and able. I never did find the dishwasher LOL!!

Memorial Day Getaway

This was the perfect location for a Memorial Day weekend getaway with my children. It was an easy walk from the cabin to the Parkway - much better than getting caught in traffic and fighting for a parking spot. The drive to Dollywood was about 20 minutes and the drive to the Smoky Mountain National Park visitor center was 10-15 minutes.The cabin was cozy and comfortable, and easily accomodated my family of 4, with beds to spare! The kitchen area is small, but well appointed and had everything we needed. We did have the chance to see the neighborhood bear a few times as well :).We would definitely stay here again!

History and charm

Small, but charming and cozy. Perfect set up for those traveling with a multi family group or young adults who need independent spaces. Our adult children were able to come and go from the bottom floor without disturbing their younger siblings upstairs. This allowed everyone to set their own schedules and enjoy different activities but still be together for family time when we wanted. Parking was a little difficult for three vehicles, but not impossible. We could walk to the parkway or there is a trolley stop a block away to visit Pigeon Forge or the Glades. We saw several bears at night lurking around, but the walk ways were well lit and trash was at the end of the driveway so they kept a distance.

Walking distance to town

Our family had a great stay in the cabin. It is a little quirky in its set up but we like staying at unique properties. It was nice to be able to walk into town. Gatlinburg can be very busy so it was nice to avoid looking for parking.

Enjoyable stay but important note about access situation

My husband and three young children (6, 4, 2) had a nice overall experience at this quaint little cabin, particularly considering its mountain vibe and convenience to the strip. We were disappointed, however, that the description did not prepare us for the access situation between the upper and lower floors, both of which contain two of the four bedrooms. You can only access the lower level via a porch (upper level screened and lower level actually unscreened and quite elevated from the ravine beneath), so there was no internal connection to our children on the lower level at night, which caused them and us much stress and ultimately prompted some necessary sleeping rearrangements. Had I been aware, I could have brought monitors to ease the situation, so I wish to inform other potential guests of this nonstandard layout. The beds were quite comfortable and the heating units very effective - big pluses after our full days exploring in the cold. 🐻

Perfect Location

This cabin was perfect for our family weekend getaway. We didn’t have to get back into the car until we left for home. Everything was walking distance or the trolley was a great option to get around town. The cabin was clean and the beds are very comfortable. We will definitely remember this cabin for future trips here.

Cozy Cabin

The propery overall is nice. It is in a great location near town, with only a short walk to the main shopping area. The beds were comfortable and the host was very responsive and attentive to our needs. Small issue with the HVAC unit, but it was quickly resolved. The unit is cozy and easily sleeps 8, but a little bit more seating in the house and out on the porch would have been nice for larger groups. But i understand the space won’t allow for it. Overall nice cabin with a great location.

Quaint and Convenient

This is a historic cabin near downtown. It has charm and personality and history. Keep that in mind when you book and it will be a perfect setting for you. Expect the Manhattan Four Seasons and you will do nothing but complain and ruin it. It was enough space for 6 family members - it was a nice walk to the Anakeesta section of town. We had a small issue with the AC/heat units but the owner was VERY responsive and checked in on us daily. Although a little nudge to the cleaning crew might be needed - I think they brought their B game this time - it was acceptable but not terrific. Even with the small bathrooms and sloped floor - we would stay here again - can't beat the trees and the sound of the creek from the little deck!

March rental

First time in TN and this place was perfect to fit our group. The heat had a little issues but didnt hurt the overall quality of the rental. We were able to cook, work from the rental (good internet) and have a great first time in TN close to all our tournament events. The porch view is amazing and we had a great time with more than 1 family in it. Super relaxing cabin.

Great location!

We stayed over Christmas weekend and had a great time! Enough beds for 6 adults and 2 children with smart tv’s and fast internet. Cabin has everything you need and owner is very accommodating. It was below freezing the entire time we were there so the hot water pipes froze. Owner called a plumber on Christmas Eve and it was fixed in no time! I would definitely recommend this cabin.
