Grand Mountain View LodgeWeek in the Mountains
Our overall impression is that it met our needs. We enjoyed the location. The property just needs some overall general maintenance with some closer attention to the property details. Beds were great. Linens were clean.

Sweet EscapeA few fellow moms and our AAU basketball players stayed here, and it was perfect! The location was excellent—just 5 minutes from the venue and a quick drive to downtown, where there’s endless food and shopping options. The boys had a blast and took full advantage of all the house amenities (trust me, they tried every single one!). Highly recommend!

Whispering Pines RetreatAmazing
We loved this cabin! The location is great. The cabin was amazing. We loved the pool and hot tub and the game room. The area was quiet and easily accessible in our large SUV. We will def rent this cabin again the next time we come. It was great!!!

Heavenly BlissWe enjoyed our stay at Heavenly Bliss Cabin! The host was very responsive and helpful, cabin was very clean, and had plenty of amenities and items needed during our stay. I would recommend putting the size of the swimming pool in your description as we were expecting an actual swimming pool, and it was probably only 6 foot by 6 foot. Also, it does say 'requires stairs to get into cabin," clearly state three flights of stairs to get access into the home. We traveled our first mini vacation with our 6 month old to Sevierville and had a great time!

Hidden Gem MasterpieceA Delightful Stay in a Cozy Airbnb Retreat  I recently had the pleasure of staying at this amazing retreat and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The home was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with all the essentials needed for a comfortable stay.  The pool- game room-balcony- everything was wonderful!! The location was perfect—situated in a quiet neighborhood yet conveniently close to local attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. It made exploring the area effortless and enjoyable. What truly stood out was the host’s hospitality. They were incredibly responsive and provided clear instructions for check-in and check-out, making the entire process seamless. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a pleasant stay did not go unnoticed.  I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and amazing stay!

Hidden Gem MasterpieceThis cabin has beautiful views from its spectacular porches, and very clean, but could be more comfortable. Positive: Great location, nearby to downtown Gatlinburg, many hiking areas, and Pigeon Forge and Dollywood is a little over 20min away. Layout was nice for our 3 families, with 2 bedrooms each on opposite sides of the main floor, and 2 additional bedrooms downstairs. The kids loved the indoor plunge pool and game and theater area. House was clean and tidy and the decks provide beautiful views. This house is a nice alternative to a hotel to allow your group to stay together. Towels and linens were provided. Negative: The name of the property is grandiose compared to what it is. The house is not a luxury property, and is located on a mountain road with several similar short term stay properties that appear very fast fab. The same inexpensive black metal furnishings are in every room and mattresses are uncomfortable soft foam. It lacks basic kitchen items such as a wine opener, any baking or casserole dishes, and food storage, which put a stop to being able to make meals at the house. Frying pans, glassware and dishes are provided, as well as a brownie and cake pan. A lot of the details you don’t think about when you are living in a house were overlooked just making it feel awkward. For example, the light switches when entering a room are around the other side of the door, the sinks are unusual high, there is no place to hang a towel to reuse, etc. It sounds silly but I’m just under 6’ tall and still couldn’t reach the bathroom sink to be able to wash my face. After a few failed attempts I actually measured it, and the sink was at 47” high and set far back from the edge of the counter, where standard height is 29-34”! Just many small issues that make it clear a family would not actually live here, but fine for a few nights.

Heavenly BlissTerrific cabin, responsive hosts
I stayed here with my kids, had a great time. Clean, comfortable accommodations. Well kept, gorgeous cabin. Exactly what we looked forward to coming home to after our busy days of sightseeing. Looks like photos! Pool was very small, though, as was backyard. Hosts were incredibly responsive. Very steep hill and tight turn to get into driveway, I'd recommend AWD vehicle if possible. Overall, would stay here again!

Dollywood DelightsCute but Smelly
The cabin is as represented and communication great. However, the cabin is in front of dumpster for residents of the hill. The smell is terrible and is lingering all the time. The pool also smells. They do weekly maintenance but suggest more or proper chlorine. The hot tub is covered in honey bees. They love it but do go away at night.Be mindful, there is a camera at front entrance. It is on bc I saw the blue light light up. Lastly, the driveway is long, on side of mountain and really doesn’t have a safe turnaround spot. You have to back out. Would recommend properly for winter. On a positive note, the cabin is right beside Dollywood and close to a Walmart. Drive is not bad to those places. The cabin also allows dogs but not much outdoor space so probably best to bring small animals.

Romantic Cabin RetreatCabin was nice location a struggle
The cabin itself was nice. It absolutely is not private or secluded had to do some improvising with curtains on hot tub deck. Seemed like someone was always watching you. The dogs down hill were obnoxious but dogs will be dogs. Don’t get me wrong the cabin was nice theatre room was cool. View of mountains is really limited.

Heavenly HeightsSpring Break with the Family
Host and communication were fantastic. Property amenities were as described and the kids absolutely enjoyed themselves. The note requesting a tip for the cleaning crew upon entering the cabin was a bit off putting since we normally walk around indoors in our socks, barefoot, or “house slippers” (we bring our own)…kids quickly saw that their socks were incredibly dirty, in addition to the large amount of cobwebs in the left corners of the large windows (we noticed since that’s the beautiful view of the mountains, sunrise, and sunset, so it was hard to miss, there’s was also a leftover beer bottle cap on the couch upstairs when we arrived, The cabin is due for some upkeep, as the flooring started to “buckle” when the fireplace was on from the heat, previous visitors pets that scratched and marked the entrance frame and door were very visible and a random hole in the wall in the kitchen where wiring is visible, half of the exterior “Mood light” bulbs were not working in comparison with the neighboring cabins, water collected from condensation or a leak built up in the game room area. Overall we still enjoyed ourselves and appreciated the attentiveness of the host, as we did experience a sudden power outage and was concerned that the heated pool may have turned off, a friendly technician made it out the following day and made sure all was well.

Skyview SerenityFantastic Hideaway with Superb View
The cabin was an excellent place for our two families to spend a little retreat in. There were plenty of things for the kids to do at the cabin while the adults relaxed. The pool was bigger than we pictured from the Vrbo app and the kids really liked that the lights turned it green at night. The adults enjoyed the hot tub and all the comfy rockers in the porch to read while breathing in the mountain air!All five bedrooms were perfect. There are three king rooms on the top floor, including one master separate (off living room) from the other two across the hall from each other (off kitchen). The lower level two bedrooms are located directly below the upper two. They are one king and one queen room. I didn’t notice a description of the layout when we looked initially, so this might be helpful for combination families. Everything was so fantastic, we wished we could have stayed for two weeks, and we were all sad to leave the beauty of this place. Heads up, the drive is quite far up the mountain so be prepared to drive about 20-30 minutes to get anywhere. It didn’t bother us because we planned accordingly.Thanks for a wonderful stay!
