Comfortable and great views

We enjoyed the hot tub. We spent most of the day hiking and checking out what Gatlinburg has to offer. After a couple times up the mountain we got more used to the trek, but still avoided making the trek at night, it's steep!

Cabin with beautiful views

This cabin is near the very top of the mountain. The drive is steep and mostly single lane and very challenging at night. Once you reach the cabin the views are spectacular. The cabin was clean, comfortable and well cared for. We did see five bears enhancing our experience.

Gatlinburg trip

It was nice, the listing looked more secluded, there’s two cabins right next to you and one right below. Pets are allowed, but the grassy area is pretty small. So not much room to exercise them. Loved the hot tub, we spent most of our time there in it. Unfortunately we were there for the hurricane, and the cabin lacks a lot in the comfort aspect with the living room furniture. Wouldn’t have been an issue if we would have been out and about more with nicer weather. Overall, it’s a nice place. However, the smoky mountain area is just so over done with the touristy gimmicks, I felt like we were on a giant fair midway the whole time. It’s much different than when I was there about 15 years ago.

Absolutely perfect!!

First, let me start by saying Tatiana is an excellent host. The cabin is very beautiful and well-maintained. The views are exceptional. It’s named appropriately Heaven’s Gate. You are literally at the top, looking down into the valley.

Our Smoky Mountain Anniversary

This property exceeded all expectations! The inside of the cabin was very spacious and we especially liked all of the large windows allowing in lots of natural light (unlike other cabins we’ve stayed in where they’ve felt dark). The view from the deck is amazing and we enjoyed sitting in the hot tub while looking out into that Mountain View. The cabin was very clean and the bathroom/kitchen was well stocked with everything that we needed. The roads were a bit steep to and from the cabin but we got used to it after awhile and knew to take it slowly. Overall, the cabin was absolutely wonderful and we would not hesitate to stay there again!

This was one of the best places we have stayed at while on vacation. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed to cook dinner and enjoy the beautiful views from the hot tub! The drive up was a nail biter but worth it!

Love the Cabin, Hate the Parking and Potty Area for our Dogs

The house is very clean and overall we loved our stay for the money. Positives: Clean Priced right Hot tub and fireplace Comfortable bed View Furnished Kitchen Location close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Cons: Very small potty space. Approximately 5x10 and mostly rock with very sparse grass coming through. Parking was terrible. If you drive a truck, you will have to back out of the driveway up a very steep hill to the main road or back down from the main road to the house. Both options are not ideal. The driveway is shared between 3 cabins and very steep. The space to park for this cabin is smaller than a normal parking space. The drive is so steep you'll have to put into 4 wheel drive or have a front wheel drive. In 2 wheel drive our tires would spin. There's a house behind this cabin that is very close. If you're in the hot tub they can easily see you. No privacy. One closet and no clothes hangers. After getting more comfortable with the parking arrangements our stay got better. We wouldn't rent here again just for the parking situation. Hope this helps you as we did not have the warning about the parking or mention of a house directly behind us.
