The property was three miles up ski mountain road which was a little far up for teenagers. It was very clean, but pictures always look better. No hassle as far as booking and checking in.

The house was just as described. Although it does need a little TLC it fit the needs of my family which includes 4 children. The location is beautiful. Each day there we saw a Mama bear and her 4 cubs...kinda scary but definitely cool.

We spent a week working and visiting the Park and the area. The cabin is spotless and very welcoming and the host was super helpful in everything we needed. Great mountain neighborhood just 10 minutes from the Park and from Gatlinburg. We even saw a bear in the backyard. Highly reccomend.

I can’t say enough about this property! We had multiple daily encounters with black bears. We saw over 21 bears just incredible. This was the whole reason we chose to stay in this area and it didn’t disappoint. The cabin was perfect. We will stay at this cabin again. It was very clean and the accommodation were perfect for the 10 of us that stayed there.
