The wife and I were renting this property just for some relaxation during Labor Day. We found plenty. The cabin was nicely kept, and the owner was very accommodating and friendly. Even stopped by to play his guitar for us, but still respected or privacy. Would highly recommend.

Great cabin
We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was just as pictured and described. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool table, we cooked a lot at the cabin, the kitchen had everything we needed. The cabin is in a super quiet location and we even saw deer behind the cabin everyday. David was super friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend this cabin!

Mediocre
Check in was easy, owner was friendly.. There was left over eggs and bacon on a paper plate in the microwave (that I smelled as I was pre-heating the oven for a quick pizza). The jacuzzi was a nightmare. We used it the first night.. it was dark. We used it the next morning and when we turned the jets on, there was so much solid material, and some type of film that bubbled and frothed when the jets were on we immediately got out, showered and didn't use it again on our 6 day stay. I have rented 5 VRBOs thus far and this is bottom of the list. Owner was friendly though!

We had a very relaxing time at the cabin. It was exactly as pictured. Great price! The kids had a blast! We enjoyed the Rainforest Adventure, Ninja Warrior Trampoline Park, and Indoor Snow Tubing. Fox and Hounds was delicious. The cabin was close enough to restaurants and shopping.

Amazing experience
We absolutely loved this cabin. The owner is so incredibly friendly and the drive was not too bad to Sevierville and pigeon forge. The hot tub was clean and the cabin was clean and cozy. Had pots, pans, dishes, silverware, as well as spices and other things you may need. We really didn’t need to bring anything except food. Will definitely be staying again!

Absolutely Wonderful!
I 100% recommend this cabin! We will consider this cabin or the new smaller cabin David is building for future stays in the area. Our whole family loved it. Had everything we needed, was super clean, loved having a washer/dryer. It's 45 min to an hour away from Gatlinburg/PF/Sevierville, but it's a pretty mountainous drive. We didn't mind the distance as we didn't want to be surrounded by people and traffic. We never really saw or heard the neighbors, so we felt pretty secluded which was nice. The city is super close to run to the store, get gas, etc. Seven of us stayed over Thanksgiving Week and had a blast. We hope to stay again in the future. Thanks!!

Not for females alone
The listing should say that this is not a log cabin. This looks like a house. It is on a residential street, the yard was not mowed, the surrounding did not feel safe for some one who is not an avid outdoor person. The pole near the house had a sign, not for stupid people and beware of dog signs with two dogs were directly across the road. Also being black, I did not feel safe with seeing a confederate flag on a truck near by. Also the road was not a road I wanted to keep driving up and down for six days and nights to get to areas to shop and sightsee. Also I did not see a dusk to dawn light.

David takes great care of his property. We couldn't believe how clean it was when we arrived. I have stayed at many VRBO's but Davids cabin was by far the cleanest. Thanks for having us and we cant wait to stay again next year.
