I loved the location and the views. The house had plenty of room for 7 people. Enough room for privacy while at the same time enough room for family meals and games. A+

Perfect for weekend getaway

We stayed in this cabin for a weekend getaway over Valentines and it was perfect for our little group. Home is very spacious which was a nice surprise so we did not feel like we were on top of each other. It came stocked with almost everything we needed and between the pool table video game and hot tub we had plenty of stuff to keep us occupied while we were there. It’s located not far from town at all which was convenient!! While in the hot tube we could watch the lift from OBER mountain go up and down side of the mountain which was fun to see. Our only complaint is the roads are pretty steep getting up to the cabin but that is by no means the fault of the host or cabin. Just be prepared for some twist and turns and steep climbs. We would definitely stay again!!

Gatlinburg Watch

The area was just absolutely beautiful the wildlife was excellent as we had bears every day within 20 to 30' 40 feet of us and even walking around our deck in the morning as we drank our coffee it was fantastic. The host was phenomenal. She took care of anything we ever needed.

Wonderful family vacation spot

The cabin was as advertised and made for a spectacular family vacation that was filled with relaxation. The communication with the owners was answered very quickly. The views from the back deck were awesome and the sounds of nature were top class. We did have bear encounters everyday with them even coming on to the deck a few times. The neighbors were wonderful and pleasant, they would tell us about bear sightings around the cabin

Wonderful chalet

We had a great time staying in this chalet. Irene quickly responded and resolved our needs. We saw many bears (9 in 1 day) and enjoyed all the amenities that were available. It was worth the reservation and helped make our vacation restful.

Beautiful vacation place in the Smokies!

Wonderful and relaxing place to unwind and enjoy quality time with family. We had 8 altogether ranging in ages 5 - 76 and this chalet fit everyone comfortably. The location was excellent because it was just outside of town away from the hustle and bustle but still close enough to the endless activities that Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg have to offer. My only advice: be diligent about not leaving food out and properly dispose of your trash! There are SO many bears in the area, more than I've ever seen in all of our travels. Overall, the chalet was exceptional and we wouldn't hesitate to return.

Clean and spacious

Our group of 6 had a wonderful relaxing stay at the chalet. Everyone enjoyed the pool table and it was actually nice to have it, the kitchen, and living room all open in one area (this way we could all do our own things but still be together). The location was great....short drive to Ober Mt. and downtown Gatlinburg, yet far enough away from all the hustle and bustle.

Winter break

We brought our grandsons for their first visit to Gatlinburg. This chalet was the perfect place for them. They were never bored. They enjoyed playing pool, video games and a never ending game of Monopoly. The chalet exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, well stocked and in a very quiet area. We would definitely stay there again.

Old School Gatlinburg Chalet

This was a first time for us staying in a chalet, we loved the view and the separate bedrooms since we had 3 generations staying. The owner is very responsive and hospitable, the chalet was clean and the small bedroom attached to the downstairs queen bedroom was great for our smaller granddaughter to be close to her parents.

Family Vacation

It wasnt too hard to find. When we got.there we were all so happy. It was beautifully decorated, we played on the pool table almost every night, the hot tub was great to soak in after a long day, and it was just very cozy. We had an issue with the AC and Irene had someone out to look at it the same night and even had fans delievered to help us stay cool until.the unit was fixed. It was all just a really great expereince for the whole family and we are already planning to return next year!! Thank you Irene for a great stay

A perfect getaway!

The cabin is clean, beautifully decorated, and perfect for a family getaway. Our February weekend was cold, and the cabin was incredibly cozy. I did not want to leave! Irene made the entire process super easy, and our family had no complaints. The road to the cabin is windy and narrow in places, but this seems to be the norm in the area. Our Instacart driver seemed unfazed! I would highly recommend this cabin!

Upon arrival there was a sock in the couch, a grape in the couch cushions, smelled like dead mice in the bunk bed room, other than that it was an awesome stay. Gary and Mike the neighbors were very nice. If you want to see bears this is a great spot!!

Such a great chalet!

We adored our stay. It was plenty big enough for the 6 of us (ranging in age from 8 to 71). The view was just stunning. We played pool to our hearts content. We enjoyed the hot tub after long days of walking around. Communicating with the host was spot on. She was quick to get back with me about anything I had questions on. Checking in was a breeze. When you see that it’s on a winding road…. Take that seriously! Just take it easy on the roads and you’ll be fine. My only gripe was the cleanliness upon check in. Nothing to dampen the stay but as someone who is slightly attention detail oriented, I noticed it. Bedding and such was great, just random spots were missed that I noticed. We did see 2 bears near the chalet during our stay, too!

Saw bears everyday!!!

We really enjoyed our time here! We saw bears on property every day!! Check-in process was a breeze and the host was very prompt in her responses if we needed anything. We ran into a few minor issues that did not affect our stay. We brought them to the host’s attention and they were taking care of right away! The roads were a bit intimidating at first because we were first timers in the Smoky Mountains. Very narrow with no guardrails. But we quickly got used to them! Take it slow!! We enjoyed all three club houses and really enjoyed the hot tub after long days walking around Gatlinburg! Overall, our experience was wonderful!! We would most definitely stay here again! Only complaint would be that the cabin could use a good deep clean! There were cobwebs in almost every corner of the house. We got as many as we could. Stairs leading downstairs were sticky. We cleaned those. And both decks were covered with leaves and branches upon arrival. We gave both decks a good sweep.

Comfortable place for us to stay after hiking and hanging out in downtown Gatlinburg. The hot tub was a favorite feature. It wasn’t working when we first got there and after quick communication with the manager it was ready to go the next day.

Good location. Close to Gatlinburg and traffic light #10

Overall, this is a nice place. The renovations appear to be more recent. Some of them are really nice, some of them are more DIY than Professional, but in the 20's it's hard to find skilled tradespeople. The hot tub was clean. The kitchen is small (see photos) but serviceable and has all new appliances that work. The stairs to the two main bedrooms are very steep and shallow. They could be a challenge for both older people and younger kids. There is a bunk bed in a small room off of one of the bedrooms this is a good space for kids and a really good setup for families with children, but in the colder months this is where the furnace is (in a closet in that room) and it got hot in the room. My kids, however, didn't seem to mind. We didn't use the bunk because the kids are a bit young. A pack and play fit along with a camp mattress on the floor but this left little room for moving around. The kids LOVED the arcade. Irene is a good communicator and quickly responds to your needs.

Perfect chalet in the smokies!

Our family had a wonderful stay at this chalet. It was very nicely updated with plenty of space to spread out and had all the comforts of home (even stayed nice and cool in the 90+ degree heat while we were there). The kids loved the game table and the loft area. The adults loved the hot tub and decks. We were even greeted by a bear upon arrival! Irene was great to work with - she was responsive with needed supplies and answered all our questions. She even very graciously worked with us to book her chalet only a few days out after our original rental got cancelled (due to storm damage) - Thank you, Irene! Great location and a beautiful place to stay for a quiet, fun-filled family vacation.
