Smoky Mountain Lodge • 15 Min to Dollywood, Pool, Hot Tub, 12 BR Sleeps 36!

Everything we wanted and needed. Had a bear visitor every morning which was cool

The property was perfect for our family. While we had maybe a third of the group the property can accommodate, we did have mostly adults very appreciative of the comfortable king beds and individual bathrooms. The kitchen is well equipped with multiple appliances and all the dishware needed. The pool (heated) was clean and refreshing and the oversized hot tub was just what everyone needed at the end of our daily adventures. Living room furniture was comfortable. I was mostly impressed with the responsiveness of the team to any questions before and during our stay. There were bear sightings on property throughout the week which thrilled our family.

We were a family of 21 people of all ages. This property was perfect for us. Everyone had their own room and bathroom. Teenage boys had a bunk room, and a family with young kids had their own upstairs cottage with a separate kitchen area. The pool was perfect temperature and so welcome after long hot days at Dollywood or hiking in the woods. The balcony, both downstairs with a large hot tub, and upstairs just off the kitchen, had plenty of seating for gathering for coffee in the mornings. The large kitchen and great room was wonderful for all of us to be together....eating, watching soccer, playing games, etc. Communication with owners was always quick and helpful.

The house was in a great location, close to just about everything. Ample space, we loved the big kitchen and living room. Our family had a blast in the big pool. Lots of wildlife, including the famous black bears, our kids loved it. The beds need to be update. The showers had old shower curtains that needed to be washed. The kitchen could use a garbage disposal.The main living room got really hot in the afternoon. The AC needs to be redone for that room. The overall cleanliness was not up to expectations for the price if the rental. We mopped the house ourselves after the black footbottoms were just to lo much.

Excellent seating and kitchen space for meal prep for our family of 17. Heated pool and theater room with arcade games was great entertainment for the kids and adults too. Hot tub had died prior to arrival but we were properly compensated. Timely communication with the property mgr was excellent.

We had a wonderful stay! The Cabin & Cottage were very clean and well-maintained, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of room for a large group to enjoy themselves. All the cabin bedrooms have a private full bathroom with a shower and tub. The 2 bedrooms upstairs in the cottage also have full bathrooms. The 2 bedrooms downstairs in the cottage share a full bathroom. The hosts, were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, answering all of our questions promptly. The location was also perfect, with easy access to everything. Dollywood is very close by. I would highly recommend this property to others! Be aware, we did see a wandering bear. It is to be expected in the mountains. Be prepared.

The cabin’s were great, the cleanliness was exceptional with one incident of linens being left in the washer and mildewing. Once the manager was notified, they immediately took care of it. My only complaint is the controlled cooling units. Someone not on the property allegedly controlled the cabin units from another state. We struggled to keep the household temperature comfortable throughout the stay. I would absolutely stay at this property again if not for the struggle of keeping the cabin temperature comfortable.

Would book again

The big house was perfect for our retreat. Plenty of room to fellowship.

Very clean great property. Would definitely recommend!

Loved it. We're family and friends. It is clean and equipped with all necessary things. Carl was reachable and quick to respond. We enjoyed our time.

Had a great time. Very pleased

The property needs updates, the cleaning was less than to be desired. The sheets had holes in them.

The photos were hard to follow in the site. It would have been better if the cabin pictures were noted and the small cottage shown separate. The bathrooms we found to need cleaned better and the showers had bad wood from water. The wood was black. Otherwise we had very nice accommodations.

We loved this property and had a PHENOMENAL time for our family reunion. We had people ranging in ages from 79-6 and it was loved by all. The game room was a huge hit with the kids and we all had so much space to spread out but still enjoy each other. It honestly felt like a home away from home. The only two pieces of constructive feedback were that we never got the hot tub to work (it was luke warm) and even though mgmt did come to check it out, it never got hot. Second, there is a groundskeeper who is there every day. She was respectful and it wasn't a huge deal but from a privacy standpoint I wish we had just known that in advance! Otherwise anytime we had a question, management responded within 20 minutes which was amazing and so appreciated. Highly recommend this house for your large group stays!

We celebrated a 60th wedding anniversary at this location. Great location and property. We enjoyed the hot tub, private pool, the rooms with private bathrooms, the kitchen facilities, and theater room complete with really cool retro game machines very much. Manager answered questions quickly. One complaint was the cleanliness. Because I suspect the property is rented continuously through the summer, you really need a large professional team to come in and do a thorough sanitizing/cleaning in the six hours between rentals. Floors were very dirty, it was dusty, glass tabletops were dirty underneath, stoves needed some work. We wore shoes inside all week and left it cleaner than when we got there. One other thing was the age of some of the furnishings, especially outside by the pool. Sitting out in the hot Tennessee sun wears things out quickly - and we experienced that as multiple chairs broke the minute a person sat down in them. We learned to avoid certain furniture and managed to still find enough for all the family members hanging out by the pool to be happy. The pool area needs some serious TLC - weeding, landscaping, sprucing up, updating the gazebos - the pool area did not match the “2 million dollar cabin” atmosphere. Finally, we had issues in the cottage with one of the air conditioner units. A window unit did the job, but the wall unit kept leaking; the residents found mushrooms in the tub and moved elsewhere. Overall, we were satisfied and had a great time.

This is our 28th family reunion. 20 adults and 8 kids all under 8 yrs old. Plenty of room, good location up in the mauntain. The place could use a major detailing. Anything above 5 ft. needs dusting (ceiling fans, bathroom vents, wood beams ect.). Some of the furniture could be replaced. Outdoor and pool chairs are worn. The pics on the site is accurate but thats when it was new. The lodge looks tired and dated and in need of major cleaning and refurbishing. The owners need to tinvest money back into the lodge. Staff (Stan, Bob and Misio) was great and responded to all our request.

32 people fit comfortably. Common spaces accommodated us all. Many reviews talked about cleanliness. In the off season it may need a good dusting in the high up spots, but it was clean. Communication was exceptional. Stan was very quick to respond to questions or needs. One thing I would suggest is adding a floor plan including the cottage layout to the pictures Overall we had a great stay!
