Great Cabin

Cabin was easy to find. Found it really clean along with the hot tub. WIFI worked great. TV got the sports channels needed. Bed was comfortable. It only took a couple of minutes to get down to Glades Rd and then to Hwy 321. We did not cook, so I can't comment on what is available to cook a meal. Only a couple of very minor negatives. The shade on the front door was broken and the bathroom sink needs a drain stopper. We will return if available next trip to Gatlinburg.

Getaway

It was a adventure trying to get to the property.The road going to the cottage was in really bad shape.The holes and washouts in the gravel driveway were deep and hard on any suv ,a car could not have made it ,it should be mentioned in the listing.The cabin was basic but had most of the needed items to make it for a couple of days.Shower door crept coming of track many times ,could use some maintenance in general.

Beautiful cabin

Perfect size cabin for my husband and me. The cabin looked just like the photos and was very clean and comfortable. We even got to see a mama bear and two cubs. It wasn’t far to get to Gatlinburg and we enjoyed the arts and crafts community.

Beautiful Cabin

Sweet Pickens is a beautiful cabin that was just the right size for my Husabnd and myself. Equipped with a hot tub that was utilized every night. The property is exactly as stated in the description. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It had many accommodations and was close to a grocery store.

The perfect little getaway

Not sure where to begin! From the cabin feeling, to the hot tub, to the in room jacooz, everything was amazing at the Sweet Pickins! My family enjoyed the stay around the wilderness and the amenities the hosts provided for us. My only complaint, which may not really be a host's issue, is that the road to get to the cabin was in tatters. My car (low suspension sedan) bottomed out a couple times getting in and out of the location. Other than that, things were

Time to unwind

This property is perfect for anyone who is looking for solidarity and peacefulness of seclusion. This stay was one of the most relaxing stays I’ve been able to enjoy. The property owners were easy to contact with, eager to help with any problem-solving or issues that could occur. I give my recommendation to anybody that is looking for something of this nature and I can’t wait to experience it again.

40th anniversary

Sweet pickins cabin was a 5 star place for us. It was a very comfortble, clean cabin where we felt right at home. The location was perfect , as it sits on the outskirts of town but close to local artisan shops where you can shop without the crouds and hubbub of nearby Gatlinburg. The layout of the cabin was thoughtful and perfect for us.

Great little cabin for a weekend stay!

We enjoyed our weekend stay at Sweet Pickens. The drive down to the cabin had some major potholes and am glad we had a vehicle with high clearance. The beds were very comfy and everything felt very cozy! The cabin was exactly as described and would recommend to others. Just be careful with the shower door, it gets stuck and you feel like you are trapped inside. :)

Wonderful cabin in the mountains

This cabin was the perfect size for the 5 of us. The kids had fun using all the amenities it offers. It was nice to stay in a cabin that is up in the mountains but wasn’t too far from Gatlinburg where going into town for dinner was a hassle. Overall everyone loved being there and we look forward to booking it again in the future.

A great place to stay!

This is a beautiful cabin: clean, spacious, and even decorated for the holidays! The kids loved the air hockey table and arcade games. The hot tub was perfect after a long day spent hiking. Honestly, the pictures are lovely, but the cabin is even nicer in person. I would certainly recommend. And the owners were very responsive with any questions we had.

Gatlinburg 2023

We made the long trip from MN and everything was just as advertised. We received great communications from the owners. While we were on the go a lot during our trip this cabin was a great retreat away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Gatlinburg. It did take a little extra time to get places but it was quiet and comfortable and we had everything we needed.

Perfect getaway!

We absolutely loved everything about Sweet Pickins! Roomy enough for the 5 of us, very quiet neighborhood, secluded enough but only minutes away from downtown. Also very clean and communication with owners was quick and easy! We will definitely be back to stay again!!

Perfect mix of cozy and spacious, convenient and set apart

Cute and cozy without feeling small, loved the hot tub and the tub in the master bedroom! I don't know if this is standard in the area or something, but we loved that the bathroom had its own additional built in heater. The road getting out to it was a bit interesting (steep or narrow at point, some quick turns), but we loved the location- convenient enough, and far enough from the craziness of Gatlinburg.
