"The views were incredible! The house was cozy and clean. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub. There is a stove, microwave, coffee pot/k cup coffee maker, toaster, pots, pans, plates, utensils. They provide a starter amount of toilet paper, dish detergent, dish soap, and laundry pods. It should definitely be noted that the driveway is steep and made of gravel and dirt toward the top. We had zero issues getting up, but with rain or ice there could be difficulty. Additionally you must collect your trash and bring it down the mountain after your stay. There is a grocery store close by. The location is within an hour of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Definitely a livable stay with amazing views from about 2000 feet in elevation.

"The cabin was very cozy and welcoming. It had a very beautiful view during the day and night. The road to get there seems tough as mentioned in the description and by others previously, but my little Veloster FWD perfectly made it up. Overall we had a great time in the cabin and around the area!!!

"You CAN NOT ask for a better view of the Smoky Mountains. The house feels extremely remote yet theres a Walmart and breakfast locations no more than 20 minutes away. It was clean, spacious, and breathtaking. The ONLY problem we had, was that it was quite difficult to get up the initial hill to the property. Having a 4wd or Awd vehicle is a must!!! It will definitely be my go-to mountain destination stay from now on!!

"Great location and the view is unbeatable. The property was clean, comfortable, and as pictured. We enjoyed using the grill and eating on the deck. This was a fantastic location to reconnect with old friends. We were missing salt, pepper, and hand soap but Jen and Mike were able to drop it off on our second day. 4WD was necessary for access. The “starter” materials listed were very bare bones. We had 2 laundry pods, 1 toilet paper roll per bathroom (some of them half used) , and 2 dishwasher pods (one of which we were instructed to use upon checkout, leaving us with 1). We stayed 4 days and did not consider this an extended stay. Make sure to stop at a store on your way in if you’re staying more than 1-2 nights. Check out was easy. I did receive messages from the hosts reminding me to leave a review in the hours following check-out in which they requested a high rating.

Thanks for staying with us, Katheryn! The starter amenities are mentioned in the listing and in the welcome message that we send to guests -- it's pretty standard for the area :) Also, to be clear, we didn't request a high rating -- we asked you to leave us a review if you had a great time :)

"Everything was wonderful . The view outside was as described in the pictures and the space was clean and peaceful. Please just make sure you have a AWD/4x4 vehicle as you will need it to navigate the road leading to the home. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and I am sure it will remain a memorable one.

"Absolutely loved this place, if you have the opportunity to spend some time in the mountains completely surrounded with amazing views this is your place to go. Private there is currently nothing else around it or close enough to disturb your peace . One thing you do want to make sure to do is to bring a 4x4 or AWD as they suggested on their listing because you will need it trust their word.

"it was good I wasn't ready for the drive up. honestly it was fine at the beginning and at the end but the middle trail going up is just very rough and cracked. the place was beautiful and worth the money. the hot tub was amazing and the kitchen was fully equipped that we were able to make breakfast. at the end if the day everything was good besides the realization that the last mile up could potentially mess up your car if it's not ready to go over some big cracks and dips and broken rocks in the trail.
