- For your convenience we supply you with a limited starter kit of toilet paper, soap, paper towels, trash bags, and dishwasher detergent. There are several shops you can visit nearby to purchase supplies for the duration of your stay.

Family trip

The cabin was excellent. Just as described. A very short drive down the hill into town. The host was very available and nice. We didn't sit out on the porches but would have if it was warmer. The only thing I wish I had known was there was no iron. I would have brought one. But all else was perfect.

Cabin was perfect for my fiancé and I. Lots of space and was cozy like a home. We loved how close it was to the strip so we could come and go as we wanted. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back again.

Worse than awful

Worst VRBO experience and horrible hosts. Our attorney has accepted the case to get money back because there's enough evidence of false advertisement of property and non-compliance with VRBO camera disclosure policy. Just SOME of the reasons why this place sucks: -undisclosed exterior cameras (shows on website but not if you use mobile app exclusively) -NASTY house, sent tons of pics and while they refunded the cleanig fee, that doesn't fix the nasty -large broken decor just laying on the ground -busted up blinds -tons of trash off back deck -owners reply but dont rectify -outdoor furniture is gross and falling apart -beds are AWFUL and lumpy -fridge doesn't get cold enough for drinks let alone food (we lost $200 worth of food) -washer has a gross smell

Great spot.

Thanks Lauren. Love this place. We rate it 10:10. This house was perfect for us. King bed---first floor. Great shower. Modern refrig and stove. Easy and quick access to Dollywood where grandson works. Suggest instructions for hot tub. Also....go to Cookie Dough Monster ----Travel Advisor : Best hidden gem in US! And Local GOAT fish and chips! Superb.! Lock doors at night or when gone----a bear was spotted roaming the neighborhood and this driveway!

Great Cabin - Close to Zorbing

This property was absolutely wonderful. A bit quirky (the kitchen light switch was behind the fridge) but overall absolutely wonderful. Both bedrooms were great, the bunk beds were very appealing (though we did not use them). The kitchen was fully kitted out with a blender (so we made pina coladas). The hot tub was wonderful and spacious. The only minor issue we had was due to the Dack app being required to get the access information to the property. There was a phone mishap at Dollywood that made it so the person who had downloaded the Dack app could not access it -- so I'd recommend making sure everyone in your party downloads the app ahead of time.

VERY PLEASANT!

Accommodations were clean and comfortable. Great showers/bathrooms and hot tub. Fine porch w/furniture on which to relax. Extremely convenient (approx 2 minutes) to parkway and all places of interest. We have been coming to the area for many years, and this may be the best overall cabin we have had.
