Thanksgiving Trip
The cabin is in a great location if you want to be away from the busy tourist areas. The view is great and our kids really enjoyed the hot tub and gaming area downstairs. Shri is an excellent host from communication to having everything you may need at the cabin. The cabin is in a quiet area, we never heard anything from neighbors and enjoyed the area to walk with our dogs. The grassy area to walk dogs by the cabin is pretty steep going down to flat area so be prepared for that and you may need to bring head lights or flashlights at night since it is pretty dark up where the cabin is. All in all we enjoyed the cabin and hope to stay again.

Great Cabin with a View
Loved our stay at this beautiful cabin with a view. It was a perfect location for our family, being in close proximity to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, while at the same time away from the hustle and bustle of the towns.
The cabin itself is beautiful and was very well maintained and clean.
Highly recommend.

Nice getaway
We stayed in this cabin at the end of July. The cabin was a great size for our family of five. The online description matched what we saw and had at the cabin. We are pretty self sufficient but the time or two that we did have to contact the host he was quick to respond and took care of things. The decks are amazing and the cabin was a great, peaceful escape after the days in Pigeon Forge! We live in the country (rural area) so it was great to find somewhere away from town/noise to stay and hangout. There was things to do at the cabin (hot tub, grill, fireplace, pool, games etc) for anyone just wanting to stay there. Not sure how winters are in that area but there is a steep sharp turn to get to the cabin so just be aware of that, especially if you do not have much experience with mountain driving. We were fine with it being in summer and our rental car did fine. Overall we were happy with our cabin and first time in Tennessee!

We had the best time staying here!!
Quaint and super cute cabin set nicely up in the mountainside. There are other cabins close, but you can’t see them. Plenty of parking for our large SUV’s. We had 8 humans and 2 pups total and brought a couple air mattresses just for comfort for the teenagers. It was a bit tight for that many guests, but lots of room to spread out on the 2 level deck with the most beautiful views. We enjoyed our morning coffee and sunsets out there. The kids loved playing pool and having some s’mores in the fire pit. Host is so friendly and super easy to deal with. He is incredibly responsive to anything we needed before and during our stay. We were arriving early and at different times so he allowed us early check in for a small fee. That saved us so many hassles! Stay here, you will not regret it!

Beautiful & Amazing Stay
We had a wonderful week stay at this beautiful cabin. It perfectly accommodated our family and the views were amazing! We were even able to watch the fireworks for New Year's that were set off in Pigeon Forge! My kids absolutely loved the pool table and making memories with my dad! With so much to do and see in the area it was nice to have the cabin atmosphere to come back and to enjoy the views while we relaxed!

Great mountain side cabin for family of 4!
As many others have said, the pictures don't do this place justice. The property is in great condition and communication with Shri is above and beyond. The game room was hours of fun for our kids ages 8 and 10. I rated this 5 stars because we had a blast and everything worked out for us. There is one turn around a sharp corner into a steep incline that was difficult and if you have a large truck getting in and out of the drive may be difficult if the cabin at the end of the driveway has more than one car there. Having a large truck I managed just fine it just took a little concentration. This isn't a complaint, but a recommendation for updated furniture in the living room. What is there gives the room the appropriate rustic look, but the large couch/futon was not comfortable or easy to sit in or get out of. Again, we spent a lot of time in the game room, or enjoying the outdoors so this was a non-issue for us in the end. Thank you Shri- we hope to stay again.

Better than expected
Honestly, the pictures don’t do this cabin justice. It’s beautiful with a gorgeous view. It was a little difficult to find the first night, but Shri’s directions were very helpful. The board games and poker set were nice touches, as was the guest book. The beds were COMFY and I slept like a log. It was also great that they’re pet friendly, and Effy definitely enjoyed her stay too. I would book this cabin again in a heartbeat.

Everything you need!
We had a great week in the Smokies! Due to COVID concerns, we mostly cooked and ate at the cabin. The kitchen was fully stocked— every thing we needed was there, including a spice rack full of spices. The dishwasher was a great feature, too. We were provided with plenty of towels for showers and the hot tub, which we used often. The two beds were very comfortable, as was the downstairs sofa bed. The upstairs futon type sofa bed was a little lumpy, but our teen still preferred sleeping on it to sharing a bed with a sibling. The location of the cabin was fantastic. You really are up in the mountains and the views are gorgeous. The setting feels remote, but it’s an easy 15 minute drive to Pigeon Forge. We highly recommend!

Nice getaway!
The property was easy to find, not far from town, clean, and lovely! The road is a little scary in the rain and fog, but otherwise the cabin was perfect for our few days in town. The carvings outside are cute and the view is excellent from the porch. We didn’t get a chance to get in the hot tub, but I’m sure it would have been great too.
