Nice property.
A little surprised that there was no toilet paper in the bathrooms. And you have borer bees on the deck by the jacuzzi. And nats in the kitchen window sill. Otherwise nice property.

Cabin was very cute and comfy there was some issues with cleanliness that we ended up cleaning before bringing in our luggage there was rain one night and my spouse was woke up by rain dripping through the roof owner was notified with pictures of all issues. Bed was very uncomfortable we spent most of the time sight seeing but while there after cleaning it’s a very cute cabin.

Peaceful getaway
The cabin was very clean!! Only 2 complaints, no coffee filters (I ended up buying some and left them behind) and sleeping arrangement for our child. I thought they would be in the bedroom with us. Only other place to sleep was on the couch. I assume it was a pullout but didn’t really mess with it to find out. They just slept on the couch as is. Other than that, it was a very nice, cozy cabin. The bubbling creek was a nice peaceful touch!

Heater
The only issue we had was with the heat and air unit. It was extremely noisy and made it difficult to sleep. We finally figured out the heat setting but the air didn’t seem as warm as it should have been. Other than that it was a nice stay.

Very nice -would stay again
We enjoyed our weekend at this property. The house was very clean, bed was comfy and the kitchen well stocked. We enjoyed the hot tub and the deck overlooking the creek very much! Two things- the windows on the outside need cleaning badly. Lots of cobwebs. Also they don’t stay open on their own and have to be propped. Not a deal breaker but would definitely be a good idea to fix. Second, as nice as the creek is, don’t expect much in the way of fish. You can get to the water coming from the deck but that’s about it. The only other spot is down a ways but it is on private property so inaccessible. The property itself and the leaves were beautiful. We will be back.

Relaxing Stay
The directions to find the place was accurate but still had a difficult time locating the cabin as it sets back and blends in with the landscape. It was quiet, relaxing, and the surrounding area was simply beautiful! The cabin had linens, but larger towels for the hot tub would be nice. We didn’t burn our firewood in the fire pit because it just seemed too close to the home and lots of trees around. We were just too scared to take that chance. The manager responded quickly to the questions we had and the check in /check out process was very easy. It is a cozy cabin and a perfect getaway.

The stay was beautiful. the cabin is nestled in a secluded spot that is tranquil and romantic. The only downside is the bed mattress needs to be replaced with a new mattress and box spring.

I loved my stay at the bungalow, its a cute and peaceful cabin on the river. I loved having my coffee on the porch in the morning and sitting in the hot tub at night. It had all the amenities we needed. My only complaints were that it was very dusty (I have bad allergies) and the main bed was very stiff and the pull out was very loud and uncomfortable. :)

A Wonderful Weekend
My wife and I stayed at the cabin for two nights recently. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year. The back deck, overlooking the creek, was so peaceful and relaxing. We spent most of the weekend at Dollywood, but in reality we probably should have just stayed at the cabin and relaxed. We can't wait to return!

The cabin was absolutely spotless. But it was extremely hard to find, and we have stayed in the smokies half dozen times before. We were trying to get into the wrong cabin for half hour in the pouring rain. A sign on the cabin with the name wouldve helped.

We really enjoyed our little get away. A lot of the trip it was pouring rain. It was very nice to sit on the back porch and watch the water. We loved the indoor jacuzzi as well. As other people mention, the air conditioning unit is really loud and annoying, but it isn’t worth taking a star from the rating! I just hope owners consider replacing it sooner than later. It sounds like a plane taking off.

River Relaxation
Great property that is tucked away among the trees and the Cosby River. We had a great time! Our avid fisherman was disappointed that there were no fish to catch but he throughly enjoyed trying and splashing around in the river (when the level was low enough and the current slower). We were able to cook all of our meals there too with no issues which was of high importance as we have several family members with dietary restrictions. Overall wonderful, relaxing and a great eacape from the hustle and bustle!!! Just minutes from the foothills too!

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!
It’s extremely dark inside the cabin not very homey feeling like in the pictures. When we got there the bed sheets were not washed and there was a bug crawling on the bed sheets. The blinds were all broken up and the tub was also dirty. There was a cockroach in the bathroom the first night we got there. All she said was sorry we can have someone come clean it. 1000% never staying there again!!!

Unlocked Windows and Poor Communication
The property itself is not bad— it’s clean, small, and located on a nice stream. However, upon arrival we noticed a window on the ground floor which would not lock. After contacting management, we still have not heard back and were refused a refund. DO NOT STAY HERE if you value good communication and a host who understands the importance of safety. You will not get a refund if you have to find a new place to stay should an issue arise.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Feb 2023
This type of guest makes the rental business discouraging sometimes. After attempts to get a refund before their arrival date which was outside of the agreed policy , they falsely claim a window wouldn’t lock in another attempt to get a refund. Since they were refused a refund now they resort to posting a negative review. We hope that this guest takes their own advice and never stays or rents with us again. We do work with guests if an issue arises but false reports we don’t tolerate
