Our group of 13 (6 adults and 7 kids) had more than enough space to relax and enjoy. The setup was ideal for families—the kids absolutely loved sleeping together in the bunk room (it comfortably held 6 of them!), and the downstairs movie room was a huge hit for evening downtime. The kids also enjoyed the pool! The views from both balconies were beautiful every single day. Robyn was incredibly responsive and communicative throughout. The drive up and down the mountain can definitely be a bit nerve-wracking, but the view makes it worth it!

My family… 8 adults and 5 children.. spent the week in Robyn’s home and had the absolute best vacation! House was exactly as pictured and described. Robyn is an extremely responsive host and was always willing to go the extra mile for us.

Spent the time with our son from Alabama and son from North Carolina and their families that included grandkids 19, 15, 10, 9, 6, 3 & 1 years old that rarely get to see each other. We had a wonderful time at the lodge itself with its amenities. We also enjoyed a short beautiful drive into Gatlinburg and Pidgeon Forge for shopping, mini-golf, arcades, candy, caramel corn, etc. Fun was had by all and lifelong memories made. Especially the bear sightings from the main level deck!

The cabin itself is stunning — beautifully maintained, cozy, and stocked with so many thoughtful amenities that made the trip even better. The atmosphere was so peaceful and serene, and the view was genuinely breathtaking. Waking up to the mountains every day felt unreal. Everything was exactly as described, if not better, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the space. We had an amazing time and will definitely be booking again in the future!
