★ WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING ★
“This house was probably the best I have stayed in. Not sure how new it was but it felt as if I was the first person to stay there. The amenities were outstanding. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Had to ask Joel once while there where something was and he responded quickly with what we needed. Would definitely recommend this home!” - Amy W.
“Wonderful house! It was perfect for our two families of four. Not only its layout and style, but the little things like comfort of the mattresses and furniture made it feel like a dream home. We rocked on the front porch with coffee in the mornings, enjoying what felt like reserved front row seats to a sunrise over the mountains. Nights on the back porch were a hit too, as we relaxed by the built-in bar and in the hot tub. And if you ever decide to leave this haven, you’re just moments away from local food and shops. And you’re just twenty minutes from anything you could ever want to do: hiking in the park, enjoying Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg, etc.” - Melissa S.
