Pictures are a bit out of date. View of the mountains from hot tub are no longer there. But it was secluded and quiet. Cabin could use a little tlc doors squeak and the loft where the pool table is creaks terribly to where if anyone walked to bathroom at night it was loud. It’s only 9 mins from town which was nice roads were not terrible but you definitely need a vehicle that can do elevated roads. There is also a market just up the road from the cabin but prices there were a bit high. I advise to hit up grocery store in town on way in.
Our stay was wonderful. The cabin was in great shape and included everything we needed for a great stay. The deck and grill were perfect for a relaxing evening. The location is just a short drive from everywhere, and just down the street from Ober Gatlinburg. Tip: park there and take the tram into Gatlinburg. Do be aware of the very steep roads leading to the cabin.
The cabin is very beautiful. It had everything you need for a vacation getaway. Some small negatives were that it was very dusty, the dryer was full of damp towels and bedding upon arrival, the tv in the upstairs bedroom wouldn't work, and we had some very noisy neighbors. Small inconveniences though. We would happily stay here again.
Had a wonderful time here. Cabin well stocked with our necessities. Just had issues with a non-working ice machine. And stuck door due to some warping of the door frame. Hot tub was wonderful and the manager always responded to my questions and concerns as soon as possible. Thanks for a great vacation!!
We loved the cabin. We had my husband and I and our 2 kids ages 18 and 13. We had plenty of space and the beds were descent. The only complaint was the pool table while fun was hard to access where it is located and not all the jets worked in the hot tub. The drive to get there was a little intimidating but that is expected when vacationing in the Smokies. We had a great time.

VERY MISLEADING! RENTERS BEWARE!!!
My family stayed at Megan's cabin April 3-10 3016
When we arrived to what we thought was going to be a very nice cabin we were wrong. In the pictures of the place it shows a playset for the little ones and a recreational center. It is very misleading because they are not close by. I messaged Megan to ask where the playset was at and she stated it was at least a half a mile away and she would check to see if they were open or not and she would get back to me in the morning. Needless to say, the center is only open from Memorial Day until Labor Day.
The cabin is not clean whatsoever! As soon as we walked in you could see many things that were not clean. The floors were filthy! Luckily I found a bottle of 409 under the kitchen sink. I had to clean the kitchen table before we could sit down as a family to have a meal. There were dirty pots and pans in the island cupboards. The toilet seat in the master bathroom was broken! I had to message Megan to have someone fix it! I had to scrub the jacuzzi tub and shower because you could see that they were not cleaned from the previous people that had stayed. There is an ant issue in the bathroom as well around the jacuzzi tub!
The blankets that were on the bed in the master bedroom had blood stains on them! Talk about disgusting!!!!
The fireplace does not work and there is no remote to the tv in the living room.
The upstairs bathroom had to be cleaned as well. Very dusty throughout the whole place!
You get charged a cleaning fee for a dirty place that you end up having to clean....NOT COOL!!!
I even contacted Megan and asked her if she would refund us a cleaning fee and she refused!!!
You have to go outside and around to the back of the cabin to get to the laundry room which is not kept up either.
The hot tub would've been nice if it was regularly checked. After a couple days with no chemicals, the water was turning green and had a bad odor of algae. My husband had to drain and refill the tub and I had to ask for chemicals!
So if you are considering this cabin for a nice getaway or vacation BEWARE!!!
I only gave this a 1 star rating because it would not allow me to leave it at no stars!
We are planning on going back to The Great Smoky Mountains in the fall but we will definitely not stay here!!!
Well the property person or the listing gave me a wrong code to get into the cabin thank God I saved my email to where the real code was there. And overall the cabin was great but you all need to invest in new pillows flat as all get-out not happy with that....
This cabin is in a very dangerous area. The drive to it is a very steep elevation. Super scary drive a lot of it has no guardrails. I will never come again. People should be warned before booking. Especially dangerous at night. U sure dont want to drink downtown and then drive this. No skillet for making breakfast. Had to go buy one. Spiders all over. Needs a deep cleaning. Some one attenpted to get in our truck opened the door while we were in the hot tub luckily my husband saw them they ran off before we could get to them. Not relaxing at all. Not enough directions on working the t.vs. The drive to it is taking your life in your hands . Never again.
Great location. We stayed during Thanksgiving so traffic in Gatlinburg was really bad. We were able to drive 5 minutes from the cabin, park at Ober Gatlinburg and ride the tram into downtown. This saved us a lot of frustration waiting in traffic.

The great ant war
This cabin was full of ants. Mostly in the bathrooms and some in living room. The sink had old piece of celery and nats around it. The view was awful. All you could see is some cabins nearby and trees. No mountain view at all. Old food in cabinets. The dishes did not look clean. Would not rent this cabin ever again.

Very comfortable stay!
Loved the cabin, some of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in! I was very surprised when I saw a crock pot so that was a bonus for me. Only complaint is some of the lightbulbs in the house were out, at least one in each bedroom and the jets in the hot tub weren’t working very well. Other than that we had a very great and comfortable stay. Will definitely recommend and come again!

Just missing a few details to be great!
The location of the cabin is great. Very close to downtown Gatlinburg, but still a secluded feel. Megan was super nice to work with and responded quickly to my questions. Loved the large deck on the back of the cabin. The interior was the perfect size for my family of 5. The kitchen was well stocked. A few suggestions for improvement-- the outlets in both bathrooms were not functional. There was ongoing construction on the master bath--a temporary wall was put up so that we could use it and not have to see the mess, which was fine, I had just been looking forward to using the big bathtub which was unavailable. There was an ant problem in the upstairs bathroom. The cue sticks to the pool table were either bent or broken, so we couldn't play. Never could get the jacuzzi jets to work, but that could have been user error. Small details like torn throw pillows, old, frayed towels, very dusty ceiling fan blades, dusty beams visible from the second floor, and dead bugs in the room corners and windowsills made not the best first impression.

Perfect secluded getaway❤️
Decided to come to gatlinburg for our honeymoon. After searching for the best looking cabin we came across this one! It was by far the best place we have ever stayed. Everything worked as it should. Very clean. And very relaxing! 15 minutes from both gatlinburg strip, and pigeon forge strip. Will be back again in the future 😊
