Great space, clean, close to town and our event at Rocky top sports. Very communicative hosts and would stay again. Just be sure there are enough showers for your group to share. Only downside we experienced was the water pressure wasn’t that strong.

Amazing!
I can't say enough about our time at this property. The home was exactly how it is portrayed in the pictures and more. This is the first time in over 10 years of vacation rentals where I have found the home SPOTLESS. We were able to settle right in and enjoy ourselves from the minute we arrived. Chris provided us with detailed information prior to our stay and remained in contact during our vacation. The home is well appointed and very comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked and easy to navigate. And the scenery was breathtaking! Our family of 11 had plenty of space and thoroughly enjoyed our vacation.

For a family of 14, this place was perfect in every way! The location is close enough to the downtown strip, but when you are at the house, you have your views and peace. There is so much to do at the house! There were plenty of bear sightings for us from our cabin whether in the driveway, or a grassy spot we could see from our balcony in the distance. It was so cool! The owners were quick to respond if we had questions. Thank you for allowing us to create beautiful memories in a beautiful place!

Beautiful home, perfect location
If you are looking for a beautiful oasis to recoup in after hiking, shopping, or rafting this is it! Close enough to the fun of downtown Gatlinburg the trails of the Great Smokies but tucked away on a mountain with views for days!We had 10 people - ranging in age from 6- 80 and EVERYONE loved it! We had one rainy day that was saved by all the amenities found in this house, from an awesome game room, to a relaxing theatre or covered porch where we could watch the bears go by- we all enjoyed our time there. It was super clean, the kitchen is fully stocked w anything you could possibly need, beds comfy and tons of extra pillows/blankets and owners responsive if you should need anything. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Amazing Cabin, crazy roads
We loved our time in this cabin. We had a family of 8 including 2 elderly and 2 teenagers, and EVERYONE loved our time here. There were plenty of quiet places and then plenty of fun spaces. We had a visit from the neighborly bear, who was kind enough to pose for pictures. We were able to drive into town with ease. It's SUPER convenient to the grocery store. And wow, so clean. I was very impressed with what a great job the cleaners did. This cabin more than exceeded our expectations. The only downside was the drive from town to the cabin. This is not for the faint of heart. Nothing to do with the cabin, just really steep drop offs due to super skinny roads.

One of the best places I've stayed in.
This place is wonderful. It is very spacious and located just up 321 so very close to town. It has just about any cooking utensils and pots you would want. Game room downstairs has pacman, skeeball, theatre room, air hockey, pool table and a few others. The kids loved the theatre room. I would very highly recommend this place for a large family vacation.

Family Vacation
Roaring Fork Lodge was about 1 mile from downtown Gatlinburg so the location was great. There were 15 in our group and sleeping space worked well for our group. Bathrooms worked but only three full bathrooms and 3 half baths. In the lower level there were three bedrooms and only one full bathroom, so some sharing. The bottom level had a bunk room but no bathroom. The kitchen was well-stocked except for silverware. There were only 9 forks and 3 or 4 spoons and similar number of knives. We ended up buying plastic ware. The grill was advertised as a working grill but needed to be cleaned and seasoned. These concerns aside, the house was roomy and spacious. The game room and media room were great for the kids. The decks were wonderful for sitting and gathering. The biggest concern was also the biggest treat….bears. We saw many bear every day, up close and personal. One came up to the front door. Others came up on the decks, one tried to open the latch on the door, which fortunately was locked. One napped on the yard. Others walked by the fire pit. As fun as it was to see these bears, we had to be aware when we were outside or on the decks. It was obvious that past renters had fed them, which is dangerous for people and bears. The owner, Chris, was easy to reach and addressed any concerns we had. His communiques were thorough and very informative. I’d gladly rent from him again but might choose a house that had a better bedroom to bathroom ratio.
