Spring Break escape

They aren't lying when the listing says that Monti Cristo has the best views in Pigeon Forge. Those views of the Smokey's are what we will remember the most. Our host was nothing but accomodations, the location is less than 6mins from the strip and the cabin is amazing. Inside is beautiful and clean. Perfect for a family of four with two teens while also having their grandparents join us. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Property & View

Had a late Christmas and Brought the New Year in with family. The Cabin was still decorated for Christmas so it was perfect! Love the long Dining room table to eat together and play games at night after playing hard in the surrounding towns. The stay was great for our family! John was quick to respond with any questions or needs. Will stay again if it’s available.

Beautiful view

This property is great. The neighborhood is located across the street from Dolly’s Stampede. Kitchen was well equipped for our needs. Quiet neighborhood. My only regret is over planning that didn’t allow for nearly enough down time to enjoy the rocking chairs and hot tub more. We are in agreement to have a full day of just cabin time on our next visit. John was great to work with. We will definitely stay here in the future.

Exceptional place to stay in Pigeon Forge

Highly recommend this cabin!! It was exactly like it was described in the listing. Overall this experience was one of the best rentals that we have ever had. The owner/manager, John, is amazing to work with and he quickly answered my questions. Once we booked the cabin he sent us a packet of information online and it was the most thorough information we have ever received from any place we have rented or gone on vacation. He included details about everything and so many of my questions were answered just by reading the information. He even has a picture of the dishwasher panel to describe how to use it. The view from the back decks was absolutely stunning and even better than the pictures in the listing. The cabin is easy to get to and even though it is at the top of this mountain the road is very good and has curbs on the sides. He even has a printed map of how to get up to the cabin from the parkway. The cabin was very clean and had plenty of space for our family of 10. When we were looking for a place to stay Monte Cristo had excellent reviews and they were all accurate. It is located off of light 10 in Pigeon Forge and is in between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. It was so easy to get to all of the fun places in either town. We highly recommend this cabin and will rent it again in the future!! Thank you, John, for an amazing cabin!!

Great Week & Amazing Views

What a great cabin. Everything is exactly as described and the views can't be beat. I always rise early so enjoying the sunrise was a treat. The home is well appointed and has a great atmosphere. Host was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Great area as well in Sherwood Forest. I highly recommend.

BOOK IT!

We absolutely loved our stay at Monte Cristo cabin! It is true that this cabin has the best views around (make sure to wake up early for sunrise!). Truly breathtaking and worth booking just for the views alone. The cabin was also great! So spacious and the bedrooms are located on all three levels which was so nice so everyone could have their own space. A large dining room table for all the family to eat at. We even used the grill a couple nights which was so convenient. Also, sitting in the hot tub was a highlight for many. The host was so helpful and accommodating. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything!

Our group was in awe of the view!! None of us had been to the Smoky Mountains before and wow!! The location is great for getting to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. The cabin set up with the three floors and 4 bedrooms gave us all plenty of space. John was very responsive and helpful. Our week was filled with great times with a very special place to stay!! Thank you John!!

Incredible Property

The view of the mountains from the deck of this cabin is unbelievable. And it's only a few minutes drive from the Parkway in Pigeon Forge. It's the best of both worlds. Go into town for the fun and excitement and back to the cabin for rest and relaxation. It's also located on the end of PF closest to Gatlinburg, so getting there is super easy as well. The cabin was very clean and well appointed, in a quiet neighborhood, with a nice community pool. Everything exactly as advertised. This is really a 5 star property. We'll definitely be back when staying in Pigeon Forge.

Better than described!

This was our first blended family vacation since my husband and I got married in 2017. The Monte Cristo was perfect for our family of 6 (kids ages 17, 15, and 10 yr old twins). Everyone could spread out and find their own little space when we spent a little *too* much family time. The house and amenities were exactly as described and worked perfectly. I didnt have much reason for contact with the owner since everything went smoothly but he was always prompt and friendly and answered all our questions. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

Amazing views and great location!

Loved this property and our stay overall! Will definitely consider staying again. Amazing views and only 5 minutes away from the Parkway. The cabin was well stocked with linens and most amenities except for the kitchen where we didn’t have any spare paper towel rolls or dishwashing liquid/pods. Also, there wasn’t a closet in the master bedroom upstairs, which was a little odd. The only substantive issue with the cabin I could point to would be that the living room on the main floor is fairly small. There is another one downstairs, which is helpful, but it’s hard to have everyone on the main level when entertaining due to the lack of seating. the dining area table is huge with plentiful seating which was a plus.

View from the hot tub on the porch was unbelievably beautiful. Clouds changed constantly over the mountains and through the valleys. I had not seen such vistas since travelling to Switzerland. Cabin very clean. Configuration of bedrooms worked out very well for us. We used resort pool more than I thought which the kids loved.

Why they chose this property

WHY MONTE CRISTO ??
.
A PREMIUM CABIN WITH AMAZING UNEQUALED VIEWS ! One of the "Top 5 Mountain Views" in the entire area.

This cabin has breathtaking mountain views ! The best we found - after touring at least 30 something cabins. We knew this cabin was 'Very Special', so we bought it.
.
It is a wonderful place to stay and we make sure it is maintained in a very clean and immaculate state.
.
Many of the cabins that we saw had mountain views that were distant or that could only be seen from one spot on the deck or a couple of places in the cabin - but quite limited.
.
At Monte Cristo, the mountains are 'In Your Face' as they are close up and personal. Not only are they close up, but they are also distant. You see mountains right in front of you and they are so close, it becomes surreal. They are close up and you see the mountains drift off for miles. The views can be seen from almost anywhere in the cabin. It is quite unique and unlike anything we saw from any other cabin. The mountains actually wrap around the cabin and give you a panoramic feel. You see it right when you first walk up to the front steps.
.
We just want to share this unique experience with all of our guests. We want to offer our tenants a wonderful vacation experience. A vacation to remember !
.
Thank you so much, . . . ( John - Cabin Owner ).

What makes this property unique

Monte Cristo is very close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. A great location, close & convenient to everything. Tanger Shopping Mall is not far away. Dollywood and the Pigeon Forge Strip, as well as many other great destinations, are only a few minutes away. A wonderful mountain hike in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is only 15 minutes away, possibly further depending on the hike or waterfall you chose to visit. At Monte Cristo, you're in the middle of it all and yet you have spectacular mountain views - as if you were staying in a remote cabin miles and miles away !
