The cabin was beautiful and relaxing with a spectacular view. It was nestled on a quaint side of the mountain with easy access to Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge. The location was absolutely perfect and made it super easy to do everything we wanted! Definitely a prime location!!!
The host was very responsive and addressed any concerns within a very timely manner. They were easy to get in touch with and made the stay even better. We had a small issue first night and they sent someone out to help!
The included free (one adult) passes daily were amazing and definitely allowed us to do more while saving on costs. Initially it was a bit confusing how it all worked but once we were closer to our trip we received additional details and you call and book thru a third party company called Xplorie. This process would have been better if we could have done it online like at night instead of having to call to book but I think thatâs part of the third party company. My wife handled this stuff but I would suggest booking in advance depending on the attraction or museum you are doing. Note: some of the attractions have limited capacity, specific times, etc. Some you can go to the entrance others you have to still go to the ticket window like Anakeesta. Just be mindful of that especially if busy and longer lines.
General thoughts for the cabin. A scale on how difficult it is to drive to the cabin would be nice. It was up a steep long drive and the road was narrow. Being from Florida and neither of us driving in ice or snow (thankfully it had cleared from the snow the weekend before our stay), it would have been very difficult for us. We are not used to it and limited our travel to and from.
Checkin would have been more streamlined if getting the info just by email but I had to call it was close to 4pm so early checkin. I think this process could be better especially due to cell signal issues. Other properties have sent welcome emails with all details like access code.
It said some basic things were provided but I looked and couldnât find any additional trash bags, having a full list and where things are would have helped. Overall it was a great stay and wonderful host! Beautiful views and very clean! Movie room was awesome!
Note to the cabin: the jets in the upstairs bedroom didnât seem to work, better instructions for using fireplace or other amenities would be good, and any places that offer delivery would be a good touch⊠we enjoyed our stay!
