We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. The cabin was thoughtfully furnished and beautifully decorated, and the beds were very comfortable with well-designed bathrooms. We really appreciated all the amenities, especially the pool, sauna, and hot tub.The location was also great—about a 20-minute drive to Gatlinburg and a bit farther to Pigeon Forge, with plenty to do and explore nearby. We even rented a UTV and took it through Cades Cove, which was an incredible experience.The only issue we noticed was with the pool water circulation—it didn’t seem to be moving at first—but once we reached out, the maintenance team came promptly and serviced it. The support team was very responsive and helpful throughout.Overall, an incredible stay and we would definitely come back again.
