We enjoyed our week stay. This was our first time visiting the Smoky Mountains and the cabin was in a perfect location for visiting both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The setting was so quiet and peaceful and we even got to see a bear walking down the road while sitting on the deck drinking coffee. The cabin was very clean, especially for being pet friendly. There was no pet smell or damage. Highly recommend.

Overall we had a great time. The scenery was beautiful, and we saw lots of bears. The kids loved the pool table and arcade games. My only gripe was that the cleaning appeared to be quickly done, could definitely use a good deep cleaning.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Walden. We found it cozy and comfortable. The Christmas decorations really made it feel like home. I wasn't super crazy about the steep driveway and drive up but hey it's the mountains. After a few trips I became a pro. and

Perfect Mountain Escape

This place was amazing! The house was perfect, exactly as described. Great location, and feels very secluded while not being too far from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. The hosts were lightning fast to communicate and answer any questions we had. I would definitely book this place again.

Beautiful cabin but…

It is secluded with a beautiful view just like you want in a Smoky Mountain vacation. The hosts are fantastic with communication. However, I think the owners of the cabin need to find a different cleaning/maintenance company for their cabin. My mom and I picked up over 30 screws, nails, and staples from the driveway where they had had work done to the cabin prior to our arrival. This may not seem like a very big deal, but it is a very secluded cabin with a steep driveway. A flat tire would have been a nightmare. The bleach floater in the hot tub was empty, and had orangeish brown gunk in it. There was trash left on the deck. We pitched the dirty sock in the downstairs bedroom that was left by the previous guests. The extra towels in the bathroom were kept in the bathroom sink cabinet and were literally touching and laid next to the toilet bowl plunger. Gross. Obviously, we re-washed and used the same towels while we were there. Beautiful cabin. Wonderful hosts who’ve just made the wrong choice with their maintenance and cleaning company in my opinion.

Perfect Stay in the Smokey Mountains

My husband and I (and our two Labradors) loved our stay at the Walden. The cabin is in a great/secluded location. Nice open concept with comfortable amenities. Internet was very good (should anyone need to stay connected). Great community with the owners. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their cabin! Can’t wait to stay again.

Cute secluded getaway

The listed details were very accurate and we had a great time.. excellent communication with property owners during our stay…. Only negative which is no fault of property owner is nature didn’t provide any bears from the patio view:). I would definitely recommend and prepare for the steep driveway. Very manageable

Summer Getaway

We stayed here for a week. Really nice place in a very secluded nice area. The only thing I will say is that the hot tub had a funny smell and the bleach floater was empty. I’m guessing since it was July nobody really uses it. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Amazing cabin near Great Smoky Mountains

The hosts have excellent communication and are very responsive. The cabin is truly private. No other cabins within sight. All you see are trees and some of the road through some thick trees. (No vista view) I sent up a quadcopter drone and all I could see was solid trees and a few other structures at a distance. The cabin itself was not visible through the forest canopy unless you looked really close and knew exactly where it was. The upstairs loft/room and bath is the “nice” spot with the larger bathroom. The downstairs room is more private with a door that closes and if you close the window blinds it gets nice and dark so you can have a nap and lose all track of time. The bed frames are very nice and the mattresses are the perfect firmness with cozy comfort. You can use the TV Roku to sign into your favorite streaming services and the system will automatically purge your private information upon checkout. Kitchen has full size fridge and oven. Nice sink with a fancy faucet. There is also a small dish washer. Due to the forest canopy, don’t bring your telescope. (I left mine at home after communicating with hosts) Fireflies come out just after dark. I was able to get some nice long exposure pics of them flying around. (iOS app called NightCap and a tripod to hold iPhone) If you are going hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains, I recommend getting up at 6:00 AM for arrival at trail head at about 8:00 - 8:30 AM. If you go later you won’t find parking.

Family get away

We stayed at the Walden or a family getaway/attended a family wedding. It was a beautiful cabin and everything the description described. Tara was a wonderful host and answered all of our questions. We had a very late check-in due to traffic, and everything went smoothly when we got there. We even brought our dog with us, and there were even blankets and dog bowls. We had a wonderful time.
