Newly Renovated! Romantic / Views / Indoor Heated Saltwater Pool / Massage Chair

The location is perfect for relaxing reset to life!! The view from the back porch of the Smokey Mountains is amazing. The cabin is a perfect couple’s retreat! Greg and Holly are amazing host! We look forward to or next visit in the fall!

My wife and I celebrated our 11th Anniversary in High Expectations and we could not have been any more pleased than we were. This place is the perfect couples retreat hosted by a wonderful couple who made it extra special for us; providing us with a card, flowers, chocolates and wine on our arrival. The home has an incredible view, even on the cloudy/rainy days as it allows you to see why they coined them the Great Smoky Mountains. The saltwater pool was great to have as I swam laps while my wife read/took naps. The hot tub was great as well. The game loft is a really nice touch with skeeball, an old school arcade table and a silver strike/putting game/lawn darts/cornhole stand up arcade screen. The game loft also has it's own balcony with the best views(all of them were great) of the house. The bedroom has a large and extremely soft bed, blackout shades and electric fireplace that'll allow you to sleep as long as you desire. And the massage chair was a perfect touch after a day of hiking in the National Park, exploring Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg/Wears Valley! The home was a 20-40 minute drive of everything we intended to do and that was perfect for us. The drive up, while curvy/steep(it is the mountains of course), was a very manageable drive on all paved roads! We loved every minute of our stay and have had lots of people inquire about the property. We'd highly recommend anyone to choose High Expectations for their next stay as Greg and Holly know how to host someone!

The property was absolutely beautiful. The house kept us entertained for the entire weekend. We could not have stayed at a nicer place!

Property was amazing inside and out. The views were beautiful. Property manager made the stay even better because he was a text message away and he responded super fast and I really appreciateed that.

We’ve stayed at numerous cabins around this area but this one is by far the best we’ve ever stayed. My husband & I spent Christmas here & it was fantastic. The amenities & extra care to details make this cabin so worth it. Will definitely stay here again.

Cabin was just as described and pictured ! Awsome views , pool and hot tub were clean and ready . This cabin made the vacation ! Massage chair was nice also. Thanks Greg and Holly ! When we come back we will stay here again .

We were up at daybreak, like it or not, most days because the upper windows do not have shades allowing early morning sunshine on the head of the bed. Sunlight from the upper windows caused glare on the TVs & arcade games during the day. The cabin got hot uncomfortably hot in the afternoon (thermostat reached 78 at one point even though 60 outside) from the unshaded windows.

Wonderful property exactly as advertised and appropriately named High Expectations....close to the top of the mountain, private with spectacular views. Just get your groceries on the way in and you won't need to leave if you don't want to. Great place to relax.

This property is perfection. I am admittedly very picky when it comes to accommodations, and I could not have been more pleased with the property, the host, and our overall stay. The house is new and incredibly clean, the amenities are outstanding for the price, and the views are spectacular. Like many of the other reviewers, we had multiple bear sightings, which was exciting. The property is even better in real life than in the photos. I would highly recommend.

I have nothing but glowing things to say about my stay at this property! The Host was more than helpful and responsive to communications. Our stay was perfect. It was secluded, relaxing and the perfect place for my wife and I to spend time alone, enjoying each other and remembering great years that we had lived together. Our seclusion was only interrupted by an occasional visit from a bear and her clubs that would occasionally amble through while we could enjoy from one of the several balconies facing the majestic beauty of the Smokies. We never left the property, and I can truthfully say that it was more restful and enjoyable that we could even have imagined! From the hot tub, to the heated enclosed pool, to the best massage chair on the market, this place fulfilled our wishes. Cooking was easy and enjoyable with the gas grill and the like new range. The cold water provided by the water dispenser was perfect. If you want a secluded place to spend uninterrupted time with your significant other, this is your place. Pigeon Forge was only twenty minutes away, but leaving this special place never entered our mind. As you can tell, I would recommend this wholeheartedly to anyone wanting a beautiful place to get away with the one you love.
