Beautiful log home on a mountainside a couple of miles outside of downtown Gatlinburg. Here on Monday evening to Thursday morning, a wonderfully quiet, lovely getaway with our youngest daughter and her family. Great time of year, being very temperate and sunny weather, and surprisingly little crowding at the most popular sights such as Cades Cove, Gatlinburg itself, and Pigeon Forge. We got around easily, freely, and did everything we wanted without delays! Great local attractions, as well as great restaurants. Can't wait to come again.

Overall everything is good but the mattress on the sofa bed is worn out so we arent able to use it as planned and one person has to sleep on the couch. Also we knew the unit didnt have a washer and dryer but thought there would be either enough towels for our four night stay provided or fresh ones provided at some point, this is not the case. Otherwise the cabin is living up to expectations.

Home was well maintained, clean and stocked. Location is convenient and had a fuzzy visitor at 2am. Family enjoyed it. Only complaints I ever heard out of my family was about the layout of the downstairs bathroom and how hot the fireplace made the upstairs quarters. Definitely wouldn't let that be a deciding factor. Had a great stay, thanks again. Roll Tide

Actually, this reservation location is Gatlinburg, TN. Our Great Escape cabin is clean and comfortable. There were plenty of towels available for our needs. We did not use the hot tub, so can't review that. It's nice that there are TVs up and down. The only thing we would mention is that there is no mountain view.

We stayed 3 nights, 4 people, only had 3 washcloths in each bathroom, short 6 washcloths, otherwise it would had been a 5 star stay. We called cleaning lady and she said that was all each bathroom got, said she would bring some the next day and never showed. We did go and buy some to finish our stay.

The cabin is beautiful inside. Should be listed as the community pool not approved by the county codes yet. My boys and I wanted to swim but werent able to. There was another pool about a mile away with no parking available. Also the trees have grown very high with kudzo so you arent able to see any of the mountains from the balcony. The beds were very comfortable and the cabin was clean.

The cabin was absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful view, beautifully decorated and maintained. Very spacious. My husband and I went with his sister and her family. There was six of us and we had plenty of room! Didn't get a chance to use the hot tub. My only complaint is the mattress was hard. That was also my brother in law's complaint. Now my husband and his sister said it was comfortable. So I suppose it depends on whether you like a firm or soft mattress. The pool was under maintenance when we arrived and we never did get to use it, but we went to the waterpark so it wasn't a total disaster. Other than that it was awesome and I'd probably stay again with my family.

We loved that it is the last little cabin on the road it made it easy for parking and all for us getting in and out. The fire place was so nice at night as we waited for Santa !

The cabin was exactly what we wanted, and our visit in Gatlinburg was fun. The cabin is close enough to everything that you won't have to drive much at all, but it's also tucked into the mountains so you get picturesque views and some privacy.

The Great Escape cabin experience for myself & my 2 children was 100% more tgan expected! We had a Final Cheer Competition 2 attended and booked only 2 days before arrival! Everything from the contact with questions on my end to the cabin, it's location, neighborhood & hot tub was 100% fantastic! The owner of the rental company actually reached out to me the night before we were to arrive when he got my message late at evening after operation hours, to make sure everything was okay and that we had all the information we needed. All of the follow-up emails with the information house code location ect, was above & beyond! The beautiful little cabin was the perfect size for myself and my two kids. Everything was clean & in great shape.. right down to the cute flowers on the folded towels in the bathrooms! We all felt very safe and secure and would highly recommend this property! The two bedrooms with the king size beds are downstairs on the bottom level beside one another with a full bath, which was perfect for us! We let my daughter have the downstairs bathroom and my son and I shared the upstairs full bath! ;-) ... we even got a few free admissions to surrounding theme parks which is amazing for a single mother of two!!! If we could stay here we would! Thank you so much for everything it was a great long weekend and you made everything easy and perfect! Will definitely call upon you the next time we come to this area!!!

Our stay was comfortable, but there was no working lights in one of the downstairs bedrooms. Arriving late at night, we had to use our flashlight from the car to find our way around the bedroom. The cabin was clean and well appointed. Be aware though, this cabin has NO VIEW. The view from the upper and lower balcony is TREES only. There is no distance or mountain view. This was very disappointing to me, especially when just two doors down, the cabins had magnificent mountain views from their balconies. Also, be aware, both bedrooms are DOWN a very long steep flight of STAIRS, and so is the hot tub. Very "dungeon" feeling. So, there really isn't any opportunity for socializing with your cabin mates when you have to go downstairs to use the hottub. My husband and I have difficulty with stairs, and they are EVERYWHERE in this cabin, even leading into the BATHROOM. If you don't have a problem, it probably won't bother you. But if you have issues with stairs, this isn't the place for you.

We are glad that the guest had a comfortable stay and found our cabin clean and well appointed.. In response to the concerns stated: This cabin is accurately described and presented in our description. We state in our description that our cabin is " Situated at the end of a Cul-de-Sac with beautiful wooded views". In regards to the living arrangements, guests will find that upon entering the home you have a main living area, and instead of going upstairs to bedrooms, you go downstairs. The stairs leading to the lower level are typical stairs and there are about 12 steps to the lower level landing. There is a step to access the lower level bathroom. We were never notified of problems with the lights in the bedroom, and subsequent guests have not relayed any concerns. This is an amazing cabin with convenient access to local activities. We appreciate all feedback and encourage guests to contact us with any questions about our properties, especially guests seeking particular accommodations. We want all of our guests to be 100% happy and comfortable while visiting.
