Disappointing
Cabin is older, lots of damage, scratches everywhere furniture very old and worn. jacuzzi does not work (was told by maintenance "hasn't worked for a while, needs parts") yet picture of it is in the listing. Hot tub was foaming with some kind of soap, someone came to clean it. Everything is very loud, was expecting a quiet restful week but hot tub motor runs all the time, loud, sometimes vibrating the entire cabin. Precariously on second floor balcony, deck shook at one point. Very unsettling. Beds are very old, very squeeky. Pool table is very old, broken. Neighborhood had nothing in walking distance, not even hiking trails. I asked to speak with management about the broken jacuzzi but no one replied. Fireplace is gas. Disappointing rental.

The location was great the view was fantastic we stayed in another cabin before on that street also before that’s why we booked another cabin although they are managed by different companies. This place
Was nice a little to much bear decor but our main issue was that there were lots of rugs and not secure on the floor they slid around and I had my 75 yr old father whom has Parkinson’s and he kept tripping
And sliding on the rugs and the rug under the dinning room is a bit old so the edges are flipped up slightly and he fell that. The other rugs I moved until we left so that was ok and I did have to clean a little when we got there the table and some dishes that were in the cabinet. Windows where filthy also but I
Wasn’t spending my vacation cleaning. I just felt
Like I should have not paid the cleaning charge when I had to clean after the last person

Wonderful family trip!
We booked this cabin for 5 (4 adults and 1 four year old). The accommodations were perfect, we loved that the upstairs loft had a pool table and Pac-Man. The drive to the cabin was breathtaking; right up the mountain! Check- in was easy with no issues. The view out the back was beautiful. It was a decent drive to the National Park (try to hike early and on the weekdays to avoid the crowds, if possible). Would definitely recommend!

Okay but was expecting a little nicer and cleaner
We have been visiting the area just about every year for the past 27 years we were actually married not far from this cabin. This was the first time that we actually rented a cabin. There was five of us in our party plus our small dog. The cabin was ok but not great we had plenty of room it could use a better cleaning there was actually a dirty sock and a little food on one of the couches downstairs and it could use a good dusting and the windows cleaned. The jets in the tub upstairs didn’t work and the heating unit might need to be looked at it cold while we was there but not extremely. It was in the low 30’s at night but the cabin never would get above 67 degrees till on up in the day and the thermostat was set on 70 so it was a little chilly for us. Which I had read the previous reviews and seems others had said about the same thing we just assumed everything had been fixed. I hate to leave a bad review and I’m not saying it was terrible but it could have been better.

Great view!
The cabin is comfortable. It is a bit far from town and further from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg than expected. We did enjoy seeing a new area of TN! The cabins are close together, however, all surrounding us were courteous. We uses Xplorie for the courtesy tickets and it was a very easy process.
We enjoyed our time!

Great family getaway
This cabin was great for me and my two teenage sons. It was supposed to be a family of 6 with my husband and my parents coming with us, but for circumstances beyond our control it ended up being 3 of us. It was lovely and clean and great for our purposes. It would have been challenging if all 6 of us came, especially for 4 adults (2 couples) with only 1 enclosed/private bedroom. And the upstairs bed is directly above the master, so there will be noise above you (to be expected from a cabin). The upstairs would be great for parents and their younger children to keep an eye on them, and we would have made do with us parents and kids upstairs - though it would have been noisy for my elderly parents in the downstairs bedroom. Overall, this was great and it was our 2nd time staying in the Preserves. Quiet, peaceful, with beautiful mountain views - exactly why we stay a little farther out from the bustle of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg but with the convenience of not being that far away.
