Great family getaway!!
Excellent location to SMNP! Beds are comfy, house was clean. Jacuzzi was good after hiking. My two boys enjoyed pool every night. WiFi worked great for our daughter to take online exam for summer class. When my daughter realized she had left her wallet after check out Walter remotely unlocked the door and she found it! Great communication and fast response from the host!

Awesome House
Great house for two families. Pool table, hot tub, video game machine, comfortable beds, lots of pots and pans for cooking. The pool facilities are lovely. The upstairs deck is great for bear watching and the drive into Gatlinburg is quick, about 10 minutes down the mountain

Nice place
Great location! The area has a family of bears and we really enjoyed watching them, esp the cubs. House was comfortable and very clean. The pool was a bonus, the grandkids loved it. Not really a cooking kitchen, which was fine as we didn’t cook. There weren’t really enough implements but again no big deal. We will definitely stay there again!

Our Gatlinburgh Stay
We stayed here for a mini vacation. It was awesome! The kids loved the hot tub and arcade machine! Beds were comfy. Lots of room. Owners responded very quickly any time we had a question. Close to everything but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet. Highly recommend!!

Overall nice place
Overall nice place to stay and good location close to Gatlinburg. Needs to be updated. Some things didn’t work(smoke detector, eye on stove). Plenty of linens. Ran out of propane due to faulty gauge on tank so had to have propane delivered during our stay.

5 Day Winter Stay
The property was slightly different than the pictures, the carpet has been replaced which was nice, the outdated wallpaper has been painted over so that looked better (from a far). The property was pretty clean with the exception of the pack and play which had dried food all over it (the result of an inconsiderate guest rather than the fault of the cleaning crew I'm sure since it was put away in a closet). The 2 rooms looking into the living room have been paneled off which is a bit more private but provides no sound barrier so it's quite loud in the upstairs bedrooms. One bedroom fan is so off balance it made a noise too loud to have on. Could use some additional seating (just the small couch and a huge dining table). Lightly decorated for Christmas with a tree which was a nice touch. The roads to get here are very narrow with no guardrails but lots of cabins around were that way. Very close to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, cool view of the Ober tram from the porch. Despite it being unseasonable, 4 bears came onto the porch one night! A huge one and 3 cubs which was pretty cool. There were a lot of towels provided which was nice, also a washer and dryer.

Cozy retreat!
Very easy check in, everything was provided as expected. Plenty blankets and towels, kitchen had everything needed to prepare and serve meals. Our children loved the pool table and arcade! The beds were comfortable. The spa on the back porch was a wonderful place to recover after a cold day of skiing up at Ober.

The house was exactly as stated. Owner very easy to contact . Driveway is steep. But we did it just fine. Very short drive to Gatlinburg but be prepared for the curvy narrow road. Overall very happy with this trip and the house .

Great location
House is located close to park and town. Beds were comfortable. Shower has good pressure. Two loft bedrooms have been closed off providing better privacy. However, sound still travels to those rooms. Dated wallpaper has been removed, providing a more updated look. Kids had fun with arcade machine (although sound cannot be adjusted or turned off- it was quite loud). We all enjoyed the pool table and hot tub. Stairs to house were not so bad.

Bear country
This is a great large chalet that had plenty of room for our party of 7. The property owner responded every time I asked him something. The first night we arrived we were blessed to have a mama & her 3 bear cubs that were absolutely adorable. The mama bear was feet away from my wife & I. One of the cubs stuck his head on the deck. We got to watch them for about a half hour. We also seen more bears down the road. If you want to see bears this is the place. There is an arcade game & pool table that my teenagers loved. I would stay at this chalet again & would definitely recommend it.
