My family rents in the Smoky's a few times per year & have for the last 25 yrs. I rented this for my wife, daughter, nieces for a girls weekend. They all said it was fantastic. This was the most well stocked, clean cabin we've ever rented according to my wife. Stephan & Kate were very responsive and very open on communication. Only downfall was cell service was sketchy & that's not necessarily a bad thing. Would absolutely rent from them again.

The cabin was clean and fully stocked with kitchen stuff. The hot tub was at a perfect temperature and very peaceful on the back deck. We got to see a family of bears every night. The host responds in a timely manner. When we first got there the hot tub wasn’t hot. I messaged the host and he responded soon after stating it’s because the cleaning service just cleaned it that morning and filled it with cold water, so give it a few hours. Would recommend this cabin to others
