Great mountain getaway

We had an awesome getaway in the mountains with our friends (2 couples). It had everything we needed, essentially 2 master bedrooms and we really enjoyed the views from the deck with our coffee. The drive was steep and a little stressful but as Tom says, get there before dark and go slow and you will be fine. Would definitely recommend this place!

Incredible views.

We were lucky enough to stay when fall colors were at there peak! Incredible views from the home and everywhere we went. The home has plenty of room to spread out on your own in your room or to be together for meals and visiting. Comfortable bedrooms, roomy showers, and well equipped kitchen. First few days we were nervous driving the mountain roads, but quickly adjusted. We only saw one bear near the home, but saw many while touring the state park. Would definitely stay here again.

Large home with beautiful view

We had 3 adults and 2 children with us on the trip. The home was spacious and well stocked. We were as comfortable as we are in our own home. The layout was great and the view was beautiful. Just note that in order to get this kind of view, you have to travel up some winding skinny roads. Owner communicated well with us and was available if needed. We will be back!

Nice and comfortable

4.5 stars. Very nice view. Road is narrow and twisty. We couldn't get up one steep section due to slippery rain but luckily there were a couple routes available. The place was decently equipped and nicely decorated although it is starting to show it's age and minir paint/updates would make it sparkle. Overall, a pleasant experience.

Great Birthday Getaway

Perfect birthday surprise for a long weekend with family. The house was well appointed with all the amenities of home. The view is stunning, and we saw it all…sunrise, fog, thunderstorm, etc. The area is very peaceful and all you hear is nature. We even had morning visitor sightings of a Momma bear and her cubs. Extremely beautiful creatures. It’s very conveniently located to downtown Gatlinburg and close to Pigeon Forge. Roads leading to the house are nicely maintained and parking is great. We have already referred this location to many friends who visit the area often.

Spring break Gatlinburg

The house was great! The house owner did warn us about getting to house before sunset upon arrival which we appreciated since the roads were very twisty and confusing. I’m grateful to my husband who could drive those cliffs as I would be too scared to do it! House was very large and clean. . Hot tub clean with good temperature. Beds very comfortable. No bears were sighted.

Comfortable treehouse retreat

Spacious home with great layout and location. Easy access to town and park despite the steep neighborhood. Easy parking which can't be said of many neighboring homes. Serene views of smokies from the deck as well as inside. Overall nicer than the photos and very happy with our stay! Only wish would be for upgraded utensils/kitchenware as these were a bit outdated and mismatched. Also there were no toiletries in bathrooms, which some vrbos include. And yes, heed the bear precautions (we saw them in driveway every day!)
