Smoky Peak Lodge: Breathtaking Views, Luxury, Games, Home Theater, Hot Tub, located in Gatlinburg!

Outdoor fireplace was broken and when called just came and put an out or order sign on it. Jacuzzi tubs appeared to have never been serviced or cleaned in forever black chunks just flooded out the jets so wasn’t able to enjoy a relaxing soak. Water was undrinkable. Half the pool sticks were broken and the dart board didn’t work at all. Some of the bedding was not cleaned properly and appears a rat got into our hot chocolate and left it’s droppings behind everywhere

We had three bears and four bear encounters while we were there. Two of them walked up onto the deck! Disclaimer: There was no food left on the deck and we disposed of trash properly in the bear proof trash cans. Overall a great experience there. Some of the typical rental wear was found but not enough to complain about it at check-in. Cleanliness was like I said 4/5 star. Clean but not as clean as my home. The outside fireplace wasn't working but since it was July we didn't bother with trying to get it fixed. The picture of the outdoor fireplace and TV really sold the property to us BUT once we were there the view of the mountains was so amazing that we never really sat there. Some more tall chairs on the main floor deck would be a welcome addition since the two that are there were always full. I would describe the property as on the first ridge away from the Smoky Mountain park so there are several cabins close together on the road there to take advantage of the view. For most of our trip that wasn't a problem but on the last night someone moved in next door and their music and loud voices late at night weren't appreciated. We will stay here again if we go back to the area.

The cabin was beautiful! We enjoyed our stay very much! Would definitely stay here again!

The cabin was very nice and view was beautiful. Game room was a big hit with plenty of fun stuff to keep everyone occupied. But…the cabin was not very clean. Pile of dirty towels still in one closest. Dead bugs and dirt everywhere. There was only a few chairs at the table that felt safe enough to sit in. We called for a trash pickup and to ask for light bulbs (had to search all the lambs to find bulbs to use in bathroom vanities) but no one ever showed . Beautiful cabin but if I was the owner I’d consider a new management company.

The house and location were fantastic. Very spacious and comfortable accommodations. The only issue we had was the cleaning/maintenance of the property. There were burned out light bulbs in several fixtures and didn't appear the toilets had been cleaned in the last 6 months.

Our stay was beautiful and we had perfect weather. The only issues with the house was the non cleaning dishwasher. We felt like it just doesn’t clean and everything was soaking wet at the end of the cycle. The pots and pans need to be inventoried and new once need to be purchased. The pool table needs new sticks and supplies. Fusball table had no balls to play with. The the bees were a nuisance. One of our members was stung by a large wasp. I understand nature is hard to control but the bees are definitely flourishing around the home.

Overall we had a wonderful stay. The home was beautiful and there was plenty of room for us to spread out and not feel cramped. The views were amazing, not having a single house on the mountains behind us was truly breathtaking. There were a few things we wish we had but were easy enough to get around. First, the dishwasher doesn't work we tried running it multiple times and ended up hand washing everything. Second, there are lots of bees! Lastly, There are no basics. No seasonings, cooking oil or cleaning products of any kind. If you plan to use the kitchen bring everything you will need from start to finish.

As advertised. Beautiful.

House was very nice, the views were amazing and the location was good. My only complaint would be the big screen in the basement didn't work because of no wifi access and the outside couch/tv area could have been cleaned up I had to do that myself. Other than that everything was very nice, house is huge and has everything you need.

This place is amazing. It has lots of space for a large family. The views are amazing. It was so relaxing to sit in the rocking chairs and stare at the Smoky Mountains. I will definitely return.
