    This cabin and the hosts were exceptional. The communication was clear, precise, and accommodating. The cabin itself was clean, roomy, cozy, and relaxed. The pool was an excellent benefit for relaxing rest after a day of exploring. The beds were so comfortable it was like sleeping on a cloud. If you are looking to have a wonderful stay while visiting the area, I recommend this cabin or any of Moonrise properties for an amazing vacation. If I could give 10* I would.

    Howlin at the Moon is an excellent Cabin that is exactly what it is represented to be! This Cabin is up to date and very clean. It's location is extremely private and secluded, but you can easily drive to Pigeon Forge in less than 10 minutes. Can't say enough good things about our communications with Mike & Jamie, as our short stay was scheduled extremely last minute and their responses to our questions were always immediate, thoughtful and very helpful! We have rented several VRBO Properties over the years and would definitely recommend Howlin at the Moon for an overall satisfying experience

    This property is wonderful and is exactly as advertised. It was the perfect location close to the parkway with an easy drive to Pigeon forge and Gatlinburg. We loved the electric fireplace, pool table and indoor pool/spa. As previously mentioned in other reviews, the spa takes a while to heat up and doesn’t have a lot of jets, just as a FYI. The driveway is also pretty steep. We had an AWD and had no issues getting up the driveway in dry conditions. There is limited parking around the 2 cabins, as the listing mentions. The cabin was very clean and well stocked with essentials. I appreciated the attention to detail such as having some snacks available and the Christmas lights and fireplace turned on before we arrived. I also appreciated having a guidebook for the property and easily being able to contact the hosts. I would definitely recommend this property, and I will definitely consider coming back in the future.

    If the hot tub is important to you, do not stay here. What is described as a hot tub in the listing is more of a jetted pool. The hot tub never got hot (even after they had a pool service in to fix it) and the jets have almost no power. Our kids loved the pool. But if you would like to watch your kids in the pool without getting in, note that there is no room for seating in the pool room. We had to drag a chair over to the hallway outside of the door and watch our kids from there.I would also note that this cabin is pretty small if you have a large group. The living room only has 1 couch and a small coffee table. The basement offers 1 couch and 1 chair. It feels like a cabin that is better for 4-6 people.Otherwise, it was great! The host was very responsive and quickly fixed several issues.

    Adorable cabin. Loved the Christmas lights on the front porch and the Christmas tree in the living room. The pool was a hit with the kids, although the hot tub never got above a lukewarm temperature. Nonetheless, the kids enjoyed it and didn't complain. This was the best stocked cabin we've ever stayed in so huge bonus points for that. Plenty of portable fans, laundry/dish pods, towels, extra linen, and even snacks. We would definitely stay agin.

    The property was great and the communication was fantastic. We were in town for a destination wedding and it was located in a perfect spot to do everything we wanted while we were in the area! The cabin was a little smaller than the images show, but still worked perfectly for us. They’re only a couple of things that I would recommend. One is the cookware. While I am a fan of cast-iron cookware, it should also be complimented with some other options. The hot tub also did not heat up very fast and took a considerable amount of time due to the timer setting. Because we were in and out so much, we never actually got the opportunity for the hot tub to heat up. Overall, the place is great though and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking into staying there.

    The pool needed more water. I spent an hour filling it with water. I did because the pool pump was very loud every night. I finally figured out there was no water going into the pump, it was spitting out air into the pool & the pump run loudly. The pump is under the master bedroom. I could hear it run at night. I thought about messaging the host but it was to late. I wanted to sleep before we left the next day.The cabin needs a deep clean. the furnace filter needs to be changed, the door that pulls the return air is filthy. There is what I believe is a dead reptile underneath the baseboard in the basement level. Under all the couches has lots of pet hair and food. I look under and make sure my kids' toys were not under the furniture. The outlets in the master bath don't work. They are not gfci. Upstairs shower doent drain well.The coffee pot has the clean light on, too. I ran water through it a few times to freshen it before I used it. The washer and dryer closet is dirty.There was no chalk for the pool table. one of the sticks was missing the tip. One of the joysticks is broken on the game console, we couldn't play together. dehumidifiers were full apon arrival and smelled. I dump them out. There was slimy black mold insides of them. We did use them the first day and then turned them off because of mold & it pumped out heat. The carpet smelled like pee.

    The cabin was clean, and had all the utensils and supplies you need for a week away. The communication with the host was quick and easy. I'm no expert at renting cabins, but i feel like we got a great deal for 5 nights. Plus, there is a small pool on the bottom level. Came with 2 young children who stayed in the pool as much as they could. The hot tub did not get very hot but it was still nice.

My favorite part of our stay was the great attention to detail that the hosts put into this property! They thought of it all!

    The cabin itself is nice but we encounter several issues during our stay. The host was super responsive up until the issues occurred. 1.) Hot tub does not get hot. Some of the jets blow cold water no matter how long the timer has ran. I talked to the host before we went and she said the hot tub is on a timer and ensured it would heat up to 100 degrees after running a few cycles. My bath water is hotter than the hot tub. 2. The arcade game was broken and the right joystick did not work.3. There was a horrible smell coming out of the master bathroom vent. I had to cover it with a towel and still couldn’t stand to even brush my teeth in there.4. When the upstairs shower was running we had water running down the wall in the master bathroom.5. The pool table was missing balls. 6.The ceiling fans had a lot of dust and had not been cleaned prior to our stay. 7. The host was super responsive until I had issues she then said that she would send her handy man out. He said that he would have to fix these things after we left. When I ask about the hot tub I then got no response from the host or the handy man ever again. This cabin is over rated and I would not have spent that much money on something that I couldn’t even get ready in the master bath. We will not be using this host again!

    My wife and I selected this property as a break from home strictly on the fact that the hot tub was indoors. Since we were staying in January and spend a lot of time in the hot tub this swayed our decision. On arrival the hot tub was cold and I contacted the property owners. They blamed a confusing switch at first, then said it had to run for at least 3 hours to heat up. It never did. The following day they advised a repairman stopped by while we were out and fixed it by bypassing a solenoid and it raised 2 degrees while he was there. The temp remained in the low 80's. Industry standards are 100-102 for normal operating temps. So instead of indoor, we had no hot tub for the whole stay. We also saw entries in the guest book and VRBO where prior guests complained about the hot tub not working over 30 days ago, but the owners still seemed surprised when I called.The description says it's a steep driveway, but that's an understatement. Our AWD slipped going up in the rain and the anti-lock kicks in on the way down in the rain.The rental agreement requires a 10-day notice if you plan to leave a negative review so the owners can address it. I provided the 10-day notice and never received a response. Disappointing.

    The people that own this could not have been more accommodating and friendly. We would definitely stay here again when back in the area. It is on an incline and with snowy weather, you may have to park at the bottom of the hill; but that is to be expected sometimes in the middle of January in Tennessee. Great overall experience.

    Cabin was very nice , they say pool and hot tub is heated to 82 degrees it was not . It was so cold property owner said it’s because the property was vacant and just needed constant turning of the heater . We did this for 3 days nonstop the pool was 66 degrees and the hot tub was 68 , The driveway is terrible falling rocks where you park and not much of a yard if you take pets . The driveway is very steep if you don’t have 4 wheel drive don’t rent this cabin . The views are misleading on the website .
