Single level Smoky Mountain Getaway! Kid AND Grandparent friendly.

This is our second time staying here and we plan to be back next year.

We would not stay

This is a great location for visiting the Foothills and driving “The Dragon”. The property seems to be a work in progress. The landscaping is pretty overgrown and while there is a patio table and chairs it’s not conducive to comfortably enjoying spending time outside. There were boxes of household items and bags of trash just sitting on the driveway beside the garage which was the first thing we saw when entering the driveway. Not a great first impression. As stated in other reviews, the cleanliness was lacking. There was a very large spot of a sticky substance in the kitchen floor. Possibly a leaking trash bag had been on the floor and then wasn’t mopped up. We enjoyed the ping pong table. We used the fireplace our last night and the smell of smoke was overwhelming throughout the house even though we made sure the flue was open and kept the bedroom door closed. I’ve never had an indoor fireplace so I don’t know if that’s expected but it wasn’t a great nights sleep with the strong smell of smoke. We would have enjoyed an outdoor fire pit with comfortable seating more. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and mostly comfortable although the mattress seemed to be old. Overall the property and furnishings were average to slightly below average for a stay at this price point.

a/c went out owner had someone there right away

Location was perfect for moving around the Knoxville and Smokey Mtn area. Hosts were very accommodating and available when we needed them. We felt the cleaning crew could have done a better sweep of the house but that was an easy fix

Hosts are very nice. Cleaning crew seems to cut corners. Mattresses need to be replaced. Activities in the home for the kids were appreciated.

We had a wonderful time, plenty of room for 2 babies in walkers to explore, fun with the ping pong table. The hill up to the house was a little scary at first as it was raining when we arrived. There were several spiders that we encountered in the house but we were surrounded by nature so that’s not surprising. There is a little box turtle that lives behind the house and a friendly black cat that came to visit a couple of times. The house is really big with comfortable beds, and nice big bathrooms.we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

My family stayed there for my wedding and they loved it. It was not far from the venue and perfect location for gathering and fun.

We absolutely loved the location of this beautiful home. It was just like the pictures show everything is on one level except the game room is a few steps down. It was close to everything we needed or wanted to see. The only minor problem we encountered was it was too quiet for our sleeping taste. I would suggest a small fan in the room for that. We did not light a fire in the fireplace but it was beautiful to just sit in front of it without one. Looking forward to our next visit to the area next year.

The 2 week getaway was wonderful. The only thing was I had to do some cleaning when i got there, it wasnt quite ready. Two beds werent made. The floors needed vacuuming and swiffering and the paper wasps were scary.

I gave low score due to several issues, 1: The electronic lock is on the side of the home with at least a 24 inch high step. I am on a walker so my wife had to climb up to get to the door to enter the code. 2: going from the parking area to the door facing parking lighting at night is bad and there is a lip where the concrete is a little higher that is not visable at night, my wife did not see the offset tripped and fell. We lost one day of our vacation with her bing down. 3: the bedding is horrible, the couch is low and dated. If you are considering this location and are disabled or elderly I would jot recommend this location.

Remote and isolated with little traffic. Perfect for those who wish for solitude. Ride up the hill might be a little tricky for the uninitiated but can be overcome with a little practice.

We chose this property for the proximity to The Great Smoky Mountain Half Marathon race Check in was easy and the manager/owner was very accommodating. We all enjoyed our time at the property. We did have to do some minor housekeeping When we arrived but overall it met out expectations

We absolutely loved this house. Perfect size for a group of 8. Enjoyed all the fun in Pigeon Forge then came back and relaxed away from the chaos. There’s a river 2 minutes away that you can take some tubes and just relax the day away. All the people we met were so kind. The host was great and answered whenever we needed something. We made it to the area earlier than expected and once the house was cleaned they let us know and allowed us to get there early. If we make it back to Tennessee definitely coming back to this house.

Only complaint is need more lighting on the outside

When we got there, it appeared that the landscaper had not been there for a awhile but, the inside was was clean and the accommodations were more than adequate for my family. The A/C was imperative during a week of 90 degree weather and functioned admirably. The game room was a hit with the grandsons.

Upon our arrival we immediately thought the house was abandoned we thought we were possibly at the wrong location my husband double checked and confirmed it was the right house. The landscaping is very overgrown looks nothing like the pictures that are posted it’s very unmanaged.He got out to look around and said it looks ok on the inside so we entered the house as we walked in it smelled like a forest fire had just been put out. I went throughout the house inspecting everything the bathrooms were not very clean there was hair all over the shower floors and in one bathroom it looked it the toilet had not even been cleaned it had urine on the toilet under the lid with hair, the other bathroom we couldn’t use because the chain in the tank kept coming off. The bathroom with blue tile had a white rug that smelled like very old urine I had to remove the rug and hang it outside.I found cleaning supplies and cleaned the bathrooms so we could use them. I found dishes in the dishwasher that had mold on them so at that point I felt it was necessary to wash any dish we used. The walkway outside to the door has a 16 inch step which my husband states that is not per code and is a very hazardous step for children and elderly. The door that leads to the downstairs had the keys in the door and should probably have a padlock on it because that could be hazardous to wondering children. I should have called immediately and let you know but I was trying to make the best of the situation.
