Overall our extended family really enjoyed our stay at this spacious cabin. The cabin was clean with a large first floor living space and more place to hang out upstairs and down. We were here for Thanksgiving and with a huge refrigerator/freezer and two dishwashers the meal prep and clean up were made much easier. The kitchen was well equipped for making a Thanksgiving meal. There are tons of pots and pans, plates, glasses, wine glasses etc.
The younger kids loved the video games! The pool was really the only disappointment. At first we were told the pool was not going to be heated, but then prior to arrival we were told it would be heated. But the first time the kids got in they said it was freezing and did not go in again. Once we reported the issue it was quickly repaired but then took a day to get up to a good temp to swim and by that we were leaving.
Location is great! It is close enough to anywhere you would want to go but plenty removed from the craziness of downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
Beware the bears! The first night we arrived a bear got into my son’s unlocked car, as well as several neighbors’ cars. That night about 1:30 in the morning a bear was attempting to get in the front door. We were told by the neighbors that they can easily get in if unlocked. They do not seem aggressive, but they are hungry. Just be sure to keep all cars and the house locked at all times!
We enjoyed a great four night stay in this cabin and would not hesitate to return.
