Best Retreat in the Smokys
I have been traveling to the Smoky Mountains for over 20 years and have stayed in cabins, chalets, and hotels. This location was one of the nicest, cleanest, easiest access places that I have stayed in. Getting to the cabin was a breeze as it's located very close to Dollywood/Splash Country (within about 5-10 minutes). Upon entering the cabin, you notice how clean it looks and smells. The owners have thought of every ammenitie to make you feel at home, from coffee packets, microwave popcorn, hair driers in the bathrooms to little tubes of bath gel. The towels are luxurious by comparison to places I have stayed. Everything was in working order, just as they said it would be. Working with the owners was also one of the most pleasant experiences that I have had. I would definately recommend this property to friends and I intend to return myself. We would recommend a couple of restaurants to others as well... Calhouns (great steak) and Bennetts Barbque (best BBQ in my opinion). We were less impressed with Blaines in downtown Gatlinburg. Also, go to Magiquest with the kids. Great fun and not too expensive. I guess that's about it. Stay at this cabin. I did not stay long enough to enjoy the pool or even to hang out at the cabin to enjoy many evenings in the hot tub. But I'll be back to take those luxuries in as well. Hope this review is helpful to both the travelers and the owners.
