We met our kids and grandkids for a fun week. Lots to do in the area. Well stocked kitchen. Hot tub needs work, had to add water midweek. Overall a great stay.
This cabin was perfect for my family and a set of grandparents to stay in to enjoy Pigeon Forge. Location is perfect! Host was AWESOME! Even sent extra supplies and nice little treat via Walmart delivery! Definitely would book here again!
The location of the cabin was great! The communication with the host was also great. The cabin was nice but had a lot of unneeded furniture which made it feel smaller. The cleaning people also forgot to refill the shampoo, soap, and conditioner. Other than that it was a good stay.
