Moms big birthday in the mountains!
This cabin had everything we were looking for. The space qas perfect for all the family's that we had staying. The views were amazing and the bears were an added bonus! It was a perfect place to celebrate my moms big birthday. We enjoyed the down town life because it was so close to everything. It was also very hot the weekend that we stayed so having access to the resorts pools was agreta treat. We definitely would love tobstay again.

Amazing stay! Book it!
Couldn't have asked for a better location. Mountain top view of Gatlinburg and just a short drive to Pigeon Forge. House was spectacular. Spacious rooms, very clean and well stocked with quality items such as crock pots, toaster, air fryer, etc. and best of all -box fans in most of the rooms with an arcade upstairs! Host was immediately available if we had any questions. And bonus, we saw a bear more than once!

Great Place!
Great place to stay!!! Close to downtown to get to many places easily but great view from deck. The game room was a hit! Age appropriate games, books, and puzzles for the kids as well as the video game, air hockey, and foosball! The kitchen is stocked with lots of pots and pans! Hot tub is perfect. BEWARE!! Lock your car doors. We did have a beer that got in one of the vans which were forgotten to be locked. No damage just paw prints and eaten snack bags and wet from the rain through the night!! Again great place to stay! Thank you to our host for providing us with a fun VRBO. Fun family time!

Xmas parade get-a-way
My family has wanted to plan a trip like this for some time now. It was one of our mother’s favorite things (Xmas in general). She loved Gatlinburg and wanted to take the whole family to the Xmas parade. She passed a few years back and we never made it. Our father refused to let go of that hope. We planned this trip almost a year in advance. The property owner did not disappoint! The place looked amazing (already decorated with a beautiful tree and the views of gatlinburg “lit” up at night were great! This trip was the best we have had to Gatlinburg due largely by us all being together.
Word to the wise; you WILL see bears at this cabin/lodge. Be prepared. Sometimes at night; Sometimes in the early morning. But they are present.
As for the 2 children we took; they were more than entertained. Plenty of games and activities in the cabin for them. Also, the infant was as well.
Thank you for such a wonderful trip and memory with our family.

Thanksgiving In Gatlinburg with the Odoms
We had an Awesome time at the cabin! It was everything we hoped for and more! The layout and location were perfect. Having the aquarium parking right below us was fantastic. And the $10 price is cheaper than anywhere else in Gatlinburg! The game room was a huge hit! The old-school arcade game was probably the most used of every game there, for us old School adults anyway! We had a contest to see who could get the highest score on Miss Pac-Man! I personally spent most of my time playing pinball on the Xbox! The views from both decks were phenomenal. With Anakeesta and all of the attractions lit up for Christmas, we had a Christmas light show every night right from our own living quarters. The only suggestion we would have Shay would be to get with the cable company and have them coordinate all of your remotes onto their remote. There was some confusion figuring out how to get the TVs working but we finally figured it out. And also the smoke alarm downstairs we believe needs a new battery it was beeping occasionally. Overall we could not have had a better time you all have done a fantastic job in laying out this cabin. We will recommend to all of our neighbors friends and family. Thanks again for a Thanksgiving we will never forget! And we will definitely be back!

All was good except many of the TVS wouldn’t work. Some Remotes had no batteries but we had some and found some in the kitchen drawer. One major distraction is a really large alarm box on the wall of the master bedroom that is very bright all the time so the bedroom is not dark for sleeping.

Everything we hoped!
Our group of 11 had a wonderful weeklong stay. House was very clean with every imaginable kitchen need available! Excellent layout and very spacious. Truly a great place in a great location. Make sure to lock car doors - we had a bear open car door and eat snacks left inside! We would all stay again.
