10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We had a wonderful stay at this cabin and would absolutely come back! The cabin was clean, cozy, and had such a warm, homey feel. We especially loved all of the adorable bear-themed décor—it really added to the mountain cabin experience.The porch and backyard were perfect for relaxing and spending time outdoors. One of our favorite parts of the trip was the wildlife. We were lucky enough to see bears and even a box turtle, which made our stay even more memorable.The driveway is definitely steep, so be prepared for that, but the tradeoff is the privacy. Being tucked away gave us a peaceful place to unwind while still being close enough to enjoy the area.Overall, this cabin was everything we were hoping for, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, private mountain getaway! Host did fanominal answering questions and assisting whenever needed.

Excellent location, great home base for a hiking weekend. Minutes from the grocery store and downtown Gatlinburg. Very private and quiet, no real view of nearby houses. Spacious, clean, excellent value for the price. Well stocked kitchen, everything works. Would stay here again!
