Overall loved this stay. Great location with beautiful views of the Smokies right off the front porch. If you're looking for a great place to unplug and unwind this is it. No cell service, but there is wifi if you need to stay connected or stream shows/movies, plus there's DVDs if you want to go old school.Only downside is it's a long drive back to town if you need anything, so make sure to stock up before you go. There is a 12 cup drip pot coffee maker, but they only had 4 cup filters in the cabin, so just do as i did and make smaller pots, or grab filters before you arrive. Overall a wonderful experience.
