Very clean, new property. Well-equipped. Living room furniture wasn’t the most comfortable for TV watching…which we only did because the weather was rather inclement. Would recommend.

Absolutely stunning views and will keep this cabin close in mind for future visits!A little confusing at first to find the cabin so it took some time to find. I will note that we did get there at night!When we had a little bit of an issue, they were very quick with their response and had someone at the cabin resolving said issue within an hour! Extremely friendly and quick! If you’re wanting somewhere to stay as a little get away and want Mountain View’s, this is the place! Location is also great too if you want to be close to in town activities! (Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg)

Great stay, overall! The view was amazing, and the space was pristine and just as the listing stated. Kitchen was well stocked with pans, plates, etc. (no seasonings, etc., which we didn't mind). My only complaint was that the VRBO listing was over $500 more than the Summit Cabins website (which I found AFTER I had already booked my stay). Road was a bit bumpy coming up, but we knew that beforehand, so no biggie there. We would totally stay here again!

The cabin is simply beautiful. My family enjoyed everything about it. Everything is as listed. We had just a couple of small issues. We could not find the right remote for the tv in the movie room or main level living room. However, there were plenty of other tvs that worked fine. It is pet friendly however, there really isn’t a green space for your dog to go to outside. I did miss the part about needing AWD or 4WD to access the cabin. Luckily we had that on both vehicles. You will need it no matter the weather. I would absolutely stay here again. The views were amazing. We loved the multiple decks. If you choose to stay there, you will not be disappointed.

We stayed at the cabin for a week. It was perfect for our family of 6. The cabin was exactly as advertised and had plenty of space for everyone. The driveway was a bit of a challenge. You definitely want to have a vehicle that can handle steep gravel hills!! Other than the driveway, our stay was perfect.
