Perfect getaway!
What a great cabin to stay at while visiting the Smoky Mountains area. Close to all activities one could want or ask for but distanced enough (about 2 miles) away from the main parts of town that can get crazy sometimes if not always. The cabin is beautiful inside and out. The layout was perfect for our group. Separate private sleeping areas on three different levels was great! The kitchen and living spaces were perfectly set up and spacious. Plus three bathrooms, one on each level was super convenient. The best part for me was the incredible "HUGE" porches (upper with a hot tub too and lower level patio stoned floor porch which was real nice) with all the seating, tables, swings and rockers anyone would want. To sit outside on the "covered" (which many cabins don't have) upper porch having morning, afternoon or evening drinks and meals was perfect plus you have an awesome view too. Anyways, this place has it all! No need to keep searching all the rental websites if you have a chance to book here please do yourself a favor and choose 'Smoky Mountain Splendor" for your next vacation. This place has it all! Thanks for the great stay!
Owner Response
We are so glad you enjoyed the layout of Smoky Mountain Splendor. We too love the decks. We love to start our day with our coffee on the decks and try to be back from all our activities in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg before dinner to enjoy the decks in the evening. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Amazing Stay!!
What an absolutely wonderful place to stay! We met one of our kids and their family from Illinois “in the middle” there in the Smokey’s. Smokey Mountain Splendor had everything we wanted and more! Plenty of room for us all to be together and plenty of space if you wanted quiet time elsewhere. The kitchen was fully equipped and it was awesome to have an RO water system so we had great drinking water and didn’t have to buy bottles of water. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the deck and hot tub were fantastic. Such a beautiful view in a wooded community that was plenty close to the more tourist type things. The cabin was also stock with games and plenty of TVs if you wanted to hang there. Would absolutely stay here again and whole heartedly recommend for a family vacation!
Owner Response
It is always more fun to share your vacation with others. What a great idea to meet your son and his family for vacation. Smoky Mountain Splendor is great for more than one family. You can vacation together but also there are little areas of the home where you can get away from the crowd and get some alone time while on your vacation. So glad you found everything you needed to have a great Smoky Mountain Family Vacation. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Luxury cabin, amazing comfort
Luxurious, spacious cabin. All the comforts of home, plus more. Amazing views from the large porch. Enjoyed breakfasts there every morning and dinners there many evenings too. Cabin is a short drive to Pigeon Forge area. The three levels were very spacious. The lower master suite area is enormous. My granddaughter enjoyed the kid’s cave and loft area too. Kitchen was very well equipped. Very clean and well maintained. There was a full bath on every level. Even the beds were comfortable! Had to contact the owner and she responded within minutes. Beautiful stay during this Covid pandemic. I would definitely stay in this lovely cabin again.
Owner Response
We try to have something for everyone in the cabin. We just added that kids cave. I thought the little ones would love their own little spot to hang out. It sounds like you explored the area, hiked and still had time to enjoy the amenities at Smoky Mountain Splendor. We too love starting our day on the deck enjoying the quiet morning and we try to get back from all the social distancing activities in the area just before dinner so we can enjoy the deck in the evening. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Family Vacation.
Wonderful cabin
We’ve been visiting the Great Smoky Mountains for years. This was our favorite cabin to date. It was well stocked, immaculate, comfortable beds, nice views, yet close to all attractions. I will definitely recommended this cabin to others.
Owner Response
We are so honored that we are your favorite cabin. We try to think of everything you may need to have a Great Smoky Mountain Family Vacation. We too love the location. It seems like you can be anywhere in no time. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
A Cabin in the Woods
The Cabin is well equipped with pampering amenities, a beautiful view, close to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Great Smoky Mountains Park. The sauna is relaxing and the beds will give a super nights sleep. There is plenty of room for a family to have fun or a quiet spot to yourself. The kitchen is stocked or the best BBQ in TN is minutes away at Delauders BBQ. The owners were super responsive and if returning to the area we would definitely rent again! Enjoy 😉
Owner Response
We too feel pampered while at "Smoky Mountain Splendor". We actually don't have a sauna, I think you meant to say hot tub or jetted tub inside the cabin. My husband loves to start his day in the hot tub with a cup of coffee. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.
Wonderful family vacation - FINALLY!
This is the 3rd year we have stayed at Smoky Mountain Splendor and love it! Off the beaten path a bit but still close to the parkway. Loved the new upgrades! Mrs. Schaefer was very accomodating since we had to reschedule our trip and we so appreciated that. Wonderful cabin and my grandkids wanted Papa to buy it so we could live there FOREVER!!! LOL
Owner Response
We too love the location. It seems like you can be in Pigeon Forge or Wears Valley Road in no time. Yet, it feels like you are far off in the country when you sit on the deck and listen to the distant roosters. Looking forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Family Vacation.
Movies & Munchies
We've been going to the Smokies for our winter Movies & Munchies vacation for over 15 yr and this is the BEST cabin we've EVER stayed in. Well equipped kitchen, fabulous furniture, nice view, close to downtown Pigeon Forge yet feels more like a private location. Everything pertaining to this cabin says luxury. You definitely will not be disappointed. We will be staying here again on a regular basis.
Owner Response
We are so glad you found "Smoky Mountain Splendor" to be a great Smoky Mountain Cabin for your annual Smoky Mountain Getaway. We look forward to working with you again for your next Movies in the Smokies.
We visit the Smokey Mountains very often and this is by far the best cabin we have ever stayed in. The owner was very communicative, she sent us very informative information before, during and after our stay. The check-in and check-out process was very smooth. We didn’t have any trouble or complications. This cabin was perfect for our stay, conveniently located for all of our activities and in close proximity to restaurants. Cabin is in a very quiet and friendly community. The view from this cabin is Amazing! The wrap around deck and outdoor furniture was perfect for enjoying our morning coffee with the kids. Cabin is very kid/teenager friendly and loaded with tons of games to keep the children entertained. This cabin is very spacious and each king suite has their own privacy. Upon arrival the cabin was very clean and smelt amazingly clean! We can’t wait to plan our next trip so we can stay at this wonderful cabin again!
Owner Response
We are so honored to be the best Smoky Mountain Vacation Cabin that you have experienced. We too love to have our coffee on the decks in the morning. We love to listen to the distant rooster and enjoy the peacefulness of the morning. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Family Vacation.
Great location, great amenities, overall we had a great time and would recommend to friends and family.

Owner Response
There is no better compliment than a returning guest. We look forward to working with you again.
Cabin is great, easy check in, and great service. There was a lot of rain and flooding before our trip and I actually received text and emails to warn me about this. Definitely recommend this cabin for sure!
Owner Response
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay in the Great Smoky Mountains. Thank you for taking the time to review "Smoky Mountain Splendor".
We have been renting cabins in the Smoky Mountains for over 25 yrs. This cabin tops them all! The minute I walked in the door I felt relaxed and as though I was at a luxury hotel, only much better! The decor is full of gorgeous antiques and well decorated. Beds were super comfy. All Rooms were very spacious. Furniture beautiful, comfy and plentiful. The owners have put much thought into the comfort of their cabin which was very enjoyable to us. Luxurious bedding, big, fluffy, silky soft blankets in all sitting areas. She has an entire wardrobe full of games to play, WII, playstation , board games for all ages, tons of great books. They even had sleep aid machines in each room! Nice rugs are placed around in all the places needed for bare feet. Kitchen well stocked. There are 2 play areas just for kiddos. One is a little room off the master that is adorable for small children. It too, is full of books, toys, stuffed animals, games and a large TV. Spacious laundry room. Telescope and binoculars available too! The outside covered decks and patios are also well thought out with a large table with nice, thick cushions in the chairs, rockers, swings, couch and chairs which made it so nice outside, very comfy, even in the winter! Hot tub is large with a easy cover removal. I would of been more comfortable with a privacy panel on the side of.the hot tub. The area is very quiet with only a few cars on the road in front of home. Nice big yard. Home sits back off the road. Nice mountain views. Owners were immediately responsive when we had a little glitch with getting access upon arrival . This was an Absolutely Fabulous home! Owners thoughtful of guests and have thought of many of the little things that make a big difference. We had an enjoyable, relaxing vacation with much needed time together. Celebrated my birthday and forty years of blissful marriage! We will return!
Owner Response
We love to hear that our guests feel relaxed. The mountains have that affect on me too. We are so glad you took advantage of the amenities in the cabin. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

THIS PLACE IS PERFECT!! Everything That You Needed Was Right On Hand Everything Was Clean Nothing Was Out Of Order, It Was More Than Enough Space I Have Absolutely NOTHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT!! We Even Stayed An Extra Day Thats How Great It Was... Getting In Contact With The Owner Was A Breeze She Was Great About Getting Back With Me... This Will Be My Forever Vacation Place To Go Too! Thank You For A Great Stay.......
Owner Response
We are so glad we helped give your daughter a great sweet sixteen birthday. We too love the location. It feels like you are far out into the country. Yet you are less than 5 miles from the Pigeon Forge Parkway. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.
This cabin was amazing! It was perfect for two couples. It was the most romantic set up to celebrate our husbands' birthdays! It's only mintues away from everything! We really enjoyed our stay! We would definitely book again!
Owner Response
"Smoky Mountain Splendor" has a king master suite on each floor. Each has it's own jacuzzi and fireplace. It is so nice to enjoy vacation with others. But, it is also nice to have a comfortable space to enjoy with your husband away from the rest of the group for a while. So glad you enjoyed the set up. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Birthday Celebration.
We loved our stay at this place! Super comfortable and cozy.. fun loft for the kids to play in. And so quiet! Not too close to the other cabins in the neighborhood. Will definitely be back!
Owner Response
Thank you so much for taking such good care of our cabin. We too love the location. It is a wooded lot with a farm behind it and it is so peaceful. Yet, very close to the Pigeon Forge Parkway. We look forward to working with you again for your next Smoky Mountain Family Vacation.
We were very pleased. We felt at home because we had everything we needed. The location worked great for us. It was an awesome experience

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
The property is in a good location related to a number of the attractions and is only a short drive to these. It was very clean and had all the necessities to make the trip very enjoyable. Our family really enjoyed our stay here and next time we visit the area we will try and book this same location.
Owner Response
We are so glad you found everything you needed to have an enjoyable Smoky Mountain Family Vacation. We too love the location. We look forward to working with you again the next time you are in the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area.
We rented this cabin for our daughters 18th birthday. We’ve been to pigeon forge more than 2 dozen times over the years and I have to say this cabin was one of the nicest we’ve ever rented. Very large and spacious. A beautiful large lot with no one right on top of you like other places. It had tons of porch space and is easy to get to. Very short drive to all of the attractions. We will definitely be back.

We are glad you chose "Smoky Mountain Splendor" for your daughter's birthday getaway. We too love the location. It feels like you can be just about anywhere in the area in no time at all. We spend most of our time on the wrap around porch. It is a nice place to sit and enjoy the quiet peaceful surroundings. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
I have stayed in many cabins. I believe the best thing about this cabin is to rather sizable king bed Suites, both with whirlpool tubs. Very nice amenities.
Owner Response
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We too love the two king master suites. It is nice to have a place large enough to enjoy with others. Yet, have your own private suite to enjoy with just your significant other. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
My husband and I needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. 7 hours later, we were in the Smokey Mountains. Everything from the beginning to the end was exceptional. The owner was awesome and super responsive. She provided tons of helpful information and the check-in process was seamless. Now the good part...the house! The pictures DO NOT do this home justice. This is a beautiful home! It is breathtaking. The decor of the home is superb. Nothing cheap is in this home. The furnishings are top notch with the exception of the dining room table which has been stained. The loft area is inviting and our children would have loved it. There are two additional bedrooms besides the loft area (the loft area is the 3rd bedroom). We chose the lower level one. It is outfitted with a comfy leather sofa and huge garden tub with jets. We loved relaxing on the sofa in front of the fireplace. Only minor issue we had was the shower door in the bathroom kept coming off the tracks. No need to bother the owner as it was an easy fix. Back upstairs is the kitchen. Nicely appointed. I was able to find everything I needed for cooking. Now my favorite part was the wraparound deck. My husband is a huge nature person and spent most of his time out there. We used the hot tub at night and had a blast. All in all, although it was just two of us, this home could easily accommodate three families. We had a wonderful experience and hope to visit again.

It sounds like "Smoky Mountain Splendor" delivered on your need for a break in the Great Smoky Mountains. We are so glad you found everything you needed for a relaxing break in the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area. We too love the deck. The cabin is on 2/3 of an acre. There is a farm down the mountain in the back of the cabin. In the mornings, I can hear a far off rooster. Sometimes the horse and donkey come up the mountain and peer over the fence at us. It is such a relaxing setting for sitting and enjoying nature. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Getaway.
We greatly enjoyed our stay with plenty of room to spread out, especially the multiple outdoor seating areas.
Owner Response
We try to put a lot of seating on the wrap around deck. That is the area I love to spend time overlooking those Smoky Mountains and enjoying the quiet country scenery of the Pigeon Forge area. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
This property is beautiful. We would definitely stay here again.
Owner Response
We are so glad you had a Great Stay. We too love the Beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains that you can enjoy from the wrap around deck. We look forward to working with you again on your next Family Vacation to the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area.
Beautiful place. Very clean and well maintained.
Owner Response
Thank you for taking such good care of our vacation home. We try to keep up on things and it is nice to have someone say they appreciate it. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.
Comfort and Relaxation in every way
I can't imagine a better environment to relax. The view is excellent and the quiet neighborhood eliminates the distraction of nearly every man made sound. At night we sat on the deck and could see the rings of Saturn and the moons of Jupiter through the telescope provided. The open main floor was perfect for staying connected to the rest of the group during meal preparation. Someone was in the hot tub every morning enjoying the view of the shadows of the mountains recede across the valley. The two main bedrooms were amazing and the huge loft space was great. Every bedroom has its own full bath which was great to have during our stay. I believe I saw only one car pass each day while spending time on the deck. All of the furniture, inside and out, was very comfortable. We did manage a nice hike to see a waterfall and an excellent cave adventure where we walked 1.25 miles exploring the cave with a guide. Definitely a great place to recharge from the day to day stress of life and work.
Owner Response
It sounds like you enjoyed the surrounding Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area and still had time to enjoy the amenities of "Smoky Mountain Splendor". We are glad you got to recharge and leave your responsibilities behind.
Definitely recommend this property as a great place to stay.

Beautiful cabin!!

We too love the location. It is so peaceful and quiet. It feels like you are way out in the middle of nowhere. Yet, you are less than 5 miles to the Pigeon Forge Parkway. We are glad you found everything you needed to have a great Smoky Mountain Vacation.
Clean, quiet, cool!!
Owner Response
So glad you enjoyed your stay in the Great Smoky Mountains. We too love the location. I love sitting on the deck in the morning listening to the distant rooster. There is rarely a car that drives by. We look forward to working with you again on your next Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg vacation.
Nice Stay
This fit our plans perfectly. It was out from the touristy part of Pigeon Ridge and had ample space/room. Everything we needed was there. Beautiful porch and nice view. Would definitely rent again.

Beautiful setting with a large comfortable cabin! Very comfortable beds with all the amenities. Really restful and scenic.
Owner Response
It sounds like you had a really relaxing vacation. We try to schedule time to relax and enjoy the wrap around deck and the restful atmosphere. There is so much to do in the Pigeon Forge / Wears Valley area that it is easy to forget to relax on our Smoky Mountain Vacation. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Wonderful cabin
Cabin area is peaceful and quiet. Very nice and clean. The kitchen is equipped with everything.... I would highly recommend this cabin. Very close to entertainment and restaurants. Far enough to get away but close enough for entertaining....
Owner Response
You have hit on many of the things we love about the cabin. It feels like you are way out in the country. It is so peaceful and quiet. You can barely see your neighbors. Yet, you can be on the Pigeon Forge Parkway in no time. We are glad you found everything you needed to have a great Smoky Mountain Vacation. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Thank you for allowing us to be guest's in your amazing cabin! Beautiful room's and everything you would need to have a very comfortable stay. We loved the location and the view of the beautiful mountains. Close to all the attractions and everything you would need. Would definitely stay again! Thanks again!!

We are so glad you found everything you needed to have a comfortable Smoky Mountain Vacation. We too love the location. It seems like you are far off into the country yet you are less than 5 miles to the Pigeon Forge Parkway. We also love the things to do on Wears Valley Road. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Family Vacation.
Some things for future guests: We didn’t have enough garbage bags. We had to use Publix bags which was a bit ridiculous and would suggest that you put enough for future guests. Didn’t have any sponges either so we had to buy one to clean some dishes by hand. Many lights were not working. My mom which stayed in the room by the kitchen has the light out in the closet. She had to use a flash light to be able to see. Lights outside as well were not working. We saw a lot of dust in the room under the beds mainly and my kids are very allergic.
Owner Response
We hope you had a great Smoky Mountain Vacation. How wonderful you got to go on vacation with your mother. No doubt you will cherish those memories. Our cleaners only have so much space in their vehicles. They bring one set of clean linens and then take away the dirty sheets and towels to wash and bring back next time they clean. They also haul away all the trash. They clean several cabins in a day. So, you can imagine how full their vehicles get. This is why I send out a packing list to all of our guests via email before they arrive explaining that we supply a starter supply of things like toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, etc... I also explain where the nearest grocery store is so you can stop on the way in if need be. We were there just before you checked in and did not notice any dust. I don't think we looked under the beds though. When I was there in May, I got a ladder and cleaned the high ceiling fans and globes over the lights. So, there shouldn't have been any dust on those ceiling fans. My husband did check all of the light bulbs and replaced two in the house. He did miss checking the light in the closet though. There are so many lights outside that I can't imagine it being dark out there. We were there during the day so I am not sure if my husband checked every light out front. It is funny you mention a sponge. I stayed somewhere recently and all they left was a sponge. I thought to myself "How am I going to wash dishes by hand"? I just used the sponge to wash dishes. I would prefer a dish cloth which is what we provide for each guest. I think a dish cloth can be used for all your cleaning needs and can be easily washed and reused. That is why we prefer to leave out dish clothes instead of sponges.
Wow! What a beautiful spacious high end cabin with amazing views of the mountains! Great for families with young kids and teenagers! We explored Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and loved it! We rode the mountain roller coaster, the skyride and sky walk, raced go carts, walked a mountain stream and visited Ripleys Aquarium. Then came back to the wonderful cabin and relaxed in the hot tub and on the deck! Fully stocked kitchen and the furniture throughout was so elegant! My husband is a huge rooster fan so loved the decorations! Too little time to explore all the area attractions and hope to go back some day!!!!!
Owner Response
It sounds like you did many things in the area with your family and still had time to go back to "Smoky Mountain Splendor" and enjoy the amenities. We agree there are so many things to do in the area that you just can't fit everything in. We have found though that we need to schedule time at the cabin so we can enjoy relaxing too. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Smokey Mountain Splendor
Beautiful cabin, spacious, remote enough but not too,very well appointed and really clean. Great views and peaceful sitting on the porches. Easy access to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Cades Cove and Great Smokey Mountain National Park where the view from Clingmans Dome is beyond spectacular. Definitely reccommemd.
Owner Response
We too love the location. It seems like you are out in the country yet you can be just about anywhere in the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area you wish to go in no time. One of the best parts is sitting on the deck in the morning hearing the roosters in the distance and knowing you don't have to rush off anywhere.
This is a beautiful home in a beautiful setting, very spacious and comfortable and unbelievably clean. Within easy driving distance to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, etc. If you miss Clingmans Dome at the top of Great Smokey Mountain National Park you will have missed a truly spectacular experience.
Owner Response
It sounds like you had a nice time enjoying the cabin and the setting. I just love how peaceful it is around the cabin. The Clingman's Dome outing is one of my favorites as well. I always tell people to go a little further to Mingus Mill and then to the Oconaluftee Visitors Center. There is a little village set up out back. Definitely worth the trip. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Wonderful cabin, great location, awesome week!
Owner Response
We are so glad you had an awesome week in The Great Smoky Mountains. We too love the location. It is so easy to get to Gatlinburg, Sevierville and Pigeon Forge. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
My husband and I took our three children to the Smoky Mountains for Spring Break. We could not have asked for a better trip or a more cozy cabin to stay at! The cabin was very spacious, private and had tons of games to keep our family entertained when we were relaxing in the cabin. The location is also extremely close to all of the fun activities you would want to enjoy while visiting Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge. The owner, Mary Beth was immediately available the couple times we needed to reach out. Highly recommend this cabin for your next Smoky Mountain vacation!! We will be back.
Owner Response
We are so glad you found whatever you needed to have a great family vacation. It sounds like you enjoy the surrounding Gatlinburg / Pigeon Forge area and still had time to relax in your Smoky Mountain Cabin Rental. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.

Owner Response
We are so glad you found everything you needed to make your Sevierville Vacation an enjoyable one. We look forward to working with you on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.
We were only able to stay a few days around the Valentines holiday, but my wife and I could move in tomorrow. Loved everything about it (check out the amenities, they are even better in person). Our Favorite was the downstairs master suite Spacious, beautiful, and yet cozy. There was just the 2 of us on our stay but this layout would be great for 2 couples or a family since all 3 bedrooms were on separate floors. Close but with privacy!. Definitely a must stay when in the Smokies!
Owner Response
We too love the location. You feel like you are far off into the country yet close enough to the Pigeon Forge Parkway to be in the middle of the action in no time. The layout of the cabin with a fireplace and jacuzzi in each bedroom makes every bedroom a luxury. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
This cabin is amazing. My family and I had the best time. So much so that we forgot about our normal hectic lives. We had everything we needed in the cabin. It was cozy and very clean. It was beautiful and we didn’t want to leave. This experience was wonderful. The owners made everything so easy with instructions for everything. They leave a personal message for you in the cabin. I felt like they knew the importance of this vacation for my family. I will definitely be going back to this cabin. ❤️

Wonderful Get Away
This is an exceptional cabin! Nestled on a hill and surrounded by beautiful nature and spectacular views. Enjoyed being greeted by the horse and donkey that travel up the wooded hillside to get a glimpse of who was visiting. The cabin is spacious, tastefully decorated and the furnishings are very comfortable. We really loved spending time with family on the deck! The perfect vacation home!
Owner Response
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We too love when the horse and donkey come to visit. Our favorite place to spend time is on the wrap around deck as well. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Family Vacation.
Great Second Stay
This was our second year for a fall visit to this cabin. The stay was very enjoyable and I have already booked the week for next year visit. I did get a chance to talk to the owner this year and felt as if I were talking to a friend or family member. One thing I did notice this year was that several upgrades had taken place since our first visit, flat screen tv in bedrooms, and some other upgrades that made our stay very enjoyable.I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a location with privacy but close enough to all the shopping and attractions of Pigeon Forge area.
Owner Response
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay this year. We are honored you have decided to make "Smoky Mountain Splendor" your vacation home. We too love the location. It seems like it is tucked far away out into the country yet it is very easy to get just about anywhere you would like to go. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacations.
Cabin was even better than expected. Master Suite downstairs was enormous, the 1st floor was Suite was very nice as well. Hottub was clean, hit and big enough for several adults. Nicely furnished, great views, located about 10 min from main strip in Pigeon Forge and 20 from Downtown Gatlinburg. Could go hours or days without seeing a car or another person, just far enough out of the way to get away. Sleep, gameroom, entertainment room on the 2nd floor was great for kids. Would highly recommend and hope to stay there again ourselves on a future trip.
Owner Response
We always love to hear we exceeded your expectations. It sounds like you took advantage of many of "Smoky Mountain Splendor's" amenities while still enjoying the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area. We look forward to having you back for your next Smoky Mountain Getaway.

Crest view was a no frills resort, but the location, amenities of the cabin itself, and the view was great. Overall, we enjoyed our stay immensely and never even tried the hot tub because of busy doing other things. The adult kids enjoyed the shuffleboard, the beds were comfy although I prefer solid white linens and towels not colored. The showers and water pressure were sufficient, great laundry facility and exceptional porch amenities with swings, rocking chairs. The cabin was cool and sufficient for comfortable sleeping cool at night which is not always the case in some cabins we’ve had. We had a fantastic week together!
Owner Response
We are so glad you had a fantastic family week. Crest View is a neighborhood, not a resort. The property behind us is parkland and a farm. We have had visits from two horses and a donkey at our back fence. It is a quiet rural setting yet it is less than 5 miles to the Pigeon Forge Parkway. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Very well located with gorgeous views. We loved sitting on the porch enjoying the peace and quiet. Furnished to a high standard . Beds v comfortable and the master bedroom is incredible loved the fire in our bedroom! Our daughters room was roomy and perfect for them. We didnt use the cinema room but only due to lack of time we could have stayed here a lot longer! kitchen v well equipped. Lounge and dining areas roomy and beautifully decorated with lovely views. This house has a feel of luxury and feels like a home. Went on a hike and also horse riding hike both were wonderful. Gattlinburg town centre was commercialised and different from pigeon forge we definitely picked the right location for us. We are from UK and would definitely return here. Our host was amazing and gave great instructions on everything we wanted for nothing thank you!
Owner Response
We too love the location. You can hear roosters crow and it is very quiet. Yet, it is very close to the Pigeon Forge Parkway and all the attractions there. It is also close to the Wears Valley Attractions. We strive to make our cabin as comfortable as possible for our guests. So happy you found everything you needed to have a Great Smoky Mountain Vacation. We look forward to working with you again for your next family vacation.
Stunning!

This cabin is so nice. Extremely clean. Plenty of room. Decorated so nice. The Schaefer’s have been very easy to communicate with and will definitely rent from them again. Cabin is not too far away from the Parkway so that was very convenient. Easy to find with the directions given. Quiet and peaceful and beautiful, thank you.

Awesome!
We were so pleased with this cabin - absolutely beautiful inside and out. Very very clean. Close to the parkway and not hard to find. Made our trip most enjoyable having such a nice place and just very peaceful and quiet. Plenty of room . Thanks Mr. & Mrs. Schaefer for keeping such a beautiful cabin that we could enjoy! Will definitely rent again.

The home is beautiful, relaxing, and quiet. Yet only a couple miles from downtown Pigeon Forge activities and drives through the Smokies. You never run out of things to do either relaxing in the hot tub or taking a drive somewhere. We loved spending our 25th anniversary there!! Thank you!!
Owner Response
We love to hear that people are spending their anniversaries in the Smokies. My husband and I started out really well getting away every year. Once the kids hit about 10, we stopped. Good for you getting away and vacationing in Pigeon Forge for your anniversary. I agree with you about the things to do in the Sevierville area. We have been coming for years and there are still several things on our bucket list. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

This cabin surpassed all expectations! It was absolutely beautiful. It had great space, stunning views, and lots of things to keep you entertained if you chose to just relax at the cabin. We had 2 couples, grandma, and a 3 year old with us and it was perfect set up for everyone! We would definitely come back and stay again!

Being from FL I was coming up with someone that got motion sickness from windy roads. This cabin was perfect location, just about 1.5 miles from the parkway and no steep windy roads to get to it. The cabin was also nice because it has 2 master bedrooms.
Owner Response
We too love the layout of the cabin. We love the fact that there is a master bedroom on each floor. There is also a loft which is serving as the third bedroom / game room. We also love how easy it is to get to the Pigeon Forge Parkway / Great Smoky Mountains National Park, etc... from "Smoky Mountain Splendor". Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Our stay was wonderful! Great location and great directions to the cabin. We’ve been deceived several times by photos on VRBO, but not this time. We look forward to staying here again.

So glad you had a wonderful stay in the Great Smoky Mountains. Glad you found the directions helpful. We too love the location.

We are so glad you found what you needed to prepare your meals while on your Smoky Mountain Christmas Vacation. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
The cabin was very large and very nice. My wife and I had the entire downstairs to ourselves this weekend which was wonderful. It's very conveniently located in relationship to the strip being less than 20 minutes from The Island and teaster lane. My only reason for withholding a star is that we cooked most mornings and nights and the stove struggled to get to a good cooking temperature. Otherwise we loved the cabin and would definitely return.
Owner Response
So glad you had a wonderful weekend. I wish you had mentioned the stove while at the cabin. I could have sent maintenance out. I just cleaned that stove and took off all the burners. I wonder if I did not put the burners back in tight enough. So sorry you had some issues with it. I have not had any issues while I have been at the cabin. Nor have I had another complaint about the stove. I will have this checked out. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Really enjoyed our stay. Great accommodations, easy to get to and close to everything.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We love the location. It is very easy to get Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg or the Great Smoky Mountains National Park relatively quickly. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
This property was wonderful. We took a break after the Thanksgiving holiday before the busy Christmas holidays began to enjoy the Smoky Mountain Area. We ( 3 couples) loved this property. The cabin is beautifully furnished and pictures don't do it justice. Everything was perfect. Location was close to everything we did in the area. (Dollywood, Alpine Mountain Coaster, Restaurants, Ober Ski Tubing, etc) The view is amazing. Communicating with the property owners was smooth and extremely informative. They not only tell you about their property but they highlight places to visit in the area. We will definitely be visiting this gem of a property again!!!
Owner Response
Wow! You really took advantage of a lot of things the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area has to offer. We are so glad you found all the information we send helpful. It is always nice to share the Smoky Mountains with other couples. So glad you had a great time. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Beautiful inside and out! Spotless with every thing you could need. Owners are super helpful and so easy to deal with. I will never stay in another cabin in the area if this one is available. Close to everything but still feels very private. Rent this cabin you won't regret it, perfect in every way!
Owner Response
We are so glad you found everything you needed to have a great Smoky Mountain Vacation. We too love the location. You feel far enough into the country to unwind and get away from everything.

Spent Thanksgiving here with my children and grandchildren and everything was perfect. Beautiful, well maintained cabin in a great location. Close enough to town to be convenient, but far enough away to escape the insanity of the area. Especially love that it is a small neighborhood, where the cabins aren't stacked on top of each other like so many other communities in the area. Our stay couldn't have been any more peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend. Thank you!!!

We are so glad to hear that you had a blast at "Smoky Mountain Splendor". We too love the fact that it seems so quiet and peaceful, yet in no time you can be in all the excitement of the Pigeon Forge Parkway. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Every year a I have been renting a cabin in the area for a group of three couples to get away for a few days relaxation and shopping in the Pigeon Forge area. This year was by far the best cabin we have ever rented and we have rented several. All six of the group are ready for me to rent this one again for next year and it is highly likely we will be back to visit again. All of us were very satisfied with the sleeping arrangements which included very comfortable bedding and roomy accommodations. The views are fantastic and our only regret is that the leaves were about a week from turning that would made the views even more beautiful. We shall return!!!!
Owner Response
What a wonderful idea to get away every year and reconnect. No doubt you are making memories to last a lifetime. We are so honored to be ranked the best cabin you have been to in the Great Smoky Mountains. I have always felt that the last week in October and the first two weeks in November are the best for viewing the fall foliage. It all depends on the amount of water that has fallen and the temperature. You also have the option to drive up to Clingman's Dome and view the fall foliage from there. If you have someone in your group that cannot hike, the parking lot is just as beautiful as climbing up to the tower. The higher elevations change before the lower ones. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Very pleased! Great view! We really enjoyed morning coffee on the wrap around balconies! Loved the two master suites! Fireplace in each, as well as two others! Loved the location! Secluded, yet 5 minutes from Pigeon Forge. Had great fun playing shuffle board! Especially loved the cleanliness! Highly recommend The Smoky Mountain Splendor! You will not be disappointed!

It sounds like you enjoyed the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area and also had some quality time with the family playing shuffleboard and relaxing on the wrap around deck.

This property has gorgeous views and plenty of room. The decor and furnishings are lovely and this is one of the CLEANEST places we have ever stayed. It's close enough to wherever you want to go, yet it's away from the noise and busyness of the area. We highly recommend this place...you won't be disappointed!
Owner Response
We too love the location of the cabin. Smoky Mountain Splendor is on 2/3 of an acre on a wooded lot. So, you feel like you are way off in the mountains. Yet, it is less than 5 miles from the Pigeon Forge Parkway. It is less than 10 miles to the Metcalf Bottoms picnic area in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We have rented from VRBO for years and this is one of our favorites! Most important to me was the cleanliness! The house had absolutely everything we needed. The beds are very comfortable too. We plan on renting this again in the near future.

You touched on some of my favorite qualities of "Smoky Mountain Splendor". We just love the wooded lot which makes the cabin feel so private and the 2/3 acre lot which makes it so quiet and peaceful. The location is also so convenient to The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, The Pigeon Forge Parkway and Gatlinburg. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We absolutely LOVED this cabin! The views were amazing. It was easy to find by the given directions and conveniently located to Pigeon Forge. Yoga lovers will find the deck is a beautiful place to practice morning yoga! The game systems were very much enjoyed by the family. We especially liked the selection of board games to choose from. It was very clean and tastefully decorated also.

So glad you enjoyed so many of the amenities at Smoky Mountain Splendor. We also enjoy spending time on the deck. Mostly gazing at those Great Smoky Mountains and enjoying the roosters crow or the birds sing. It sounds like you had a great family vacation. It is always nice to take time from the busy schedule and play good old fashion board games together.
Property was neat and clean. Most everything you need except of course your food. But only ten minutes from store . View from spa was beautiful looking out over the smokey mountains. Main floor bathroom mirrors and dining table had not been cleaned. I am sure they were just missed as the rest of the house was up to snuff. Would stay again!!
Owner Response
We are so glad you found everything you needed to help you have one of your best Smoky Mountain Vacations ever. The location is very convenient to the Pigeon Forge Parkway, The Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Gatlinburg. The mirror in the bathroom is antique and doesn't look clean, however, it is cleaned. The dining room table had some of those white spots. I was able to get most of them out by using old english. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Loved this charming cabin with spectacular mountain views . A way to get away from the business of life to enjoy peace and serenity .

So glad you found peace and serenity on your Smoky Mountain Vacation. It sounds like you enjoyed your time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Big living space and nice deck. There are a few minor things that need fixed, but the house is very nice and the beds are comfy.
Owner Response
Our housekeepers are really good at letting us know about maintenance issues. We also have a vacation property monitor that goes in and takes pictures and checks everything out to make sure we are keeping on top of things. However, sometimes things do get missed. We do depend on the guest to let us know about some things. We have tried to make the beds as comfortable as possible. We want you to have a great time on your vacation. Getting plenty of sleep is the beginning of a great vacation. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
This is a wonderful place! It is very close to Pigeon Forge, but still out in the country. The view of the Smokies from the deck is something we looked forward to every morning. The place is beautifully decorated, clean, and well-maintained (just like the pictures). Our party of 5, enjoyed the spacious bedrooms and well-equipped kitchen. We loved the deck, complete with swings, rocking chairs, comfortable patio furniture, screened -in breakfast nook, and hot tub. We had everything we needed. We definitely would come back and visit again!
Owner Response
It sounds like you took the time to enjoy the deck and the view in the morning. One of my favorite things to do at Smoky Mountain Splendor is enjoy my coffee in the morning on the deck. I enjoy listening to the roosters and birds and just not having to get up and do anything or be anywhere. We are glad you took advantage of all the amenities we have to offer and still had time to visit the surrounding areas. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
My family and I had a great stay! The house was very well kept, easy to get to, perfect space for our little ones and relaxing for us adults. Would stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a family getaway.

We are so glad you had a good time at Smoky Mountain Splendor. It sounds like you even had time to relax. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We were more than satisfied with the cabin and ALL of the amenities. A plus for us was the main bedroom suite was accessible to my mother and she did not have to climb up or down stairs, BUT the lower level master suite for us was EVEN BETTER! I loved the privacy in the lower level and how no one disturbed the others, even with children on the 2nd floor loft level. A nice touch to have the PlayStation 2 and the Wii available. The hot tub was an added benefit and was warm when we got in. Everything was provided, and there was even some charcoal for us to use for the grill. We really could have just stayed at the cabin and enjoyed the views, the amenities and each other without leaving and the trip would have still been worth it. Loved the convenience of a washer and dryer. Was able to wash and dry and pack clean clothes. Very convenient to the strip of activities in Pigeon forge and the Kroger was nice to pick up items. Only about 10 - 15 minutes from the strip...if that. Everything was clean and immaculate. Very elegant. We arrived right before sunset and seeing the drive was a bit difficult, I would suggest, possibly placing a colored balloon on the drive way post and communicate with the traveler to look for that specific colored balloon. We passed the driveway a couple of times after dark and having something that would be a reminder to the location would have been helpful. So glad that the entry was coded and we did not have to first find a key or location to pick up the key. The security system was very easy to operate and made us feel even more secure. No problems during our stay and we would hope that the next time we venture to Pigeon Forge that this property is available. Thank you for providing everything to make our trip excellent and carefree!
Owner Response
Thank you so much for that wonderful review. It sounds like you and your family enjoyed your stay. I am so sorry you drove by the cabin a couple of times when you were trying to find it. We do have a big sign out front "Cabins in the Clouds" with our cabin name underneath. I have solar lights facing the sign. The last time we were at the cabin we noticed that the solar lights were dim. I don't know if it is because of the trees in the area. My husband did purchase a huge solar light to replace the little ones and it is on our list of things to do the next time we visit "Smoky Mountain Splendor". Thanks for letting us know you had a hard time, we will have to tell people to be on the lookout for the sign. We are so glad you had such a great time.
Pictures of cabin are accurate - the place is really that beautiful. The hot tub was a hit with our group as it faces an amazing view. Pigeon Forge is close enough for grocery shopping, but is way too commercial for us. Kitchen is well appointed and we enjoyed many meals there. Fireplaces are easy to operate. When we had an issue, the owner responded promptly both by email and phone. Only negative for us (and this is minor because we watched so little TV) was TV in master bedroom was difficult to watch from the couch because it is inside of an armoire with a door that doesn't open fully or slide back. It would also help to have some labeling of switches - there are LOTS - but we figured it out with trial and error. Would definitely recommend!!
Owner Response
We are so glad you found the place "Amazing". We actually bought a TV for the downstairs bedroom to put above the fireplace. However, when we got there, we realized it was just too small for that large room. So, that will be for another trip. My husband has also bought me a labeler for Christmas. So, on our next trip we will label some light switches. I hesitate because I want my guests to feel at home. I think a lot of labels everywhere would take away from the homey feeling of the place. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We had a great time!! The place was beautiful and even better than the photos. Very clean and comfortable. Had an issue with the hot tub heating up, but the owner had someone out immediately to fix it and we had no other issues. Hot water was limited which was a bummer for several people wanting to shower I the bathrooms. Also water pressure was a little bit lower than what we prefer, but just little things. Overall we had a fantastic stay and this cabin was beautiful!! Would definitely stay again.
Owner Response
We are so glad you had a great time. I have not noticed the water pressure issue. However, I have noticed that it does not feel like all of the soap comes off while showering. I believe that is because of the whole house water softener system. As a rule of thumb, you should use half of the detergents you would use normally when you have a water softener system. The water heater at Smoky Mountain Splendor is much larger than the one I have at home. It is one of those large industrial size tanks. So, not sure why you were running out of water. We are glad that you found the place clean and comfortable. We look forward to working with you again.
The home was lovely! We didn't expect such comfortable beds. The house was just perfect for our party of 5 adults. Everyone had their own space. We really enjoyed the view from the living area. There's everything you could want in the kitchen, plenty of towels, everything worked, great location, and helpful owners. Everyone in our party loved this home. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!!
Owner Response
We are so glad you found everything you needed to make your Smoky Mountain Vacation a great one. We know how hard it is for people to sleep in a strange place so we try to make our beds as comfortable as possible. We are glad you were able to be comfortable while sleeping. We too are loving the Wears Valley location. It seems like you are far away from everything, yet you can be in the middle of the action on the Pigeon Forge Parkway in no time. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Excellent place very central and fabulous places very welcoming
Owner Response
We love to hear our guests felt welcomed in our Smoky Mountain Chalet. We too love the location. It seems like you can be on the Pigeon Forge Parkway, at Metcalf bottoms picnic area in the Great Smoky Mountains, in Gatlinburg, even moonshine tasting etc... in just a few minutes. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We loved our stay. Wonderful cabin with plenty of space and well kept with everything you need. Great location, not too far out from town which made it convenient. Mary was very nice and responded quickly to any questions that we had. Will definitely keep this one on our list. Thank you Mary!!
Owner Response
We are so glad you found everything you needed to make this a very memorable Smoky Mountain Vacation. We love the location too. It is very easy to get to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge or the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
What a gorgeous cabin - full of anything you need for a getaway. I have stayed in cabins in the Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg area for over 15 years and this was top of the line! It was beautifully furnished with plenty of room for large families. We had a girl's weekend and enjoyed the hot tub and the 2 large porches with sitting chairs and swing. The kitchen was full stocked with everything you would need and then some! The cabin is just minutes from all the shopping, shows and restaurants. Definitely a cabin to see! You won't be sorry!
Owner Response
We try to think of everything our guests might need to make their Smoky Mountain Vacation a memorable one. We are so glad you found the cabin and the amenities to your liking. We too love the location. I find it is easy to get around. There is even an entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains about 10 miles down Wears Valley Road at the Metcalf Bottoms Picnic Area. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Our stay here was great, everything was very welcoming and clean. All of the rooms were stocked with everything we needed. We stayed here for Christmas festivities and we really enjoyed ourselves. We would definitely recommend and come back if we had the chance.

We love to hear that our guests felt welcomed at our home. We strive to make your vacation as comfortable as possible. We are so glad you spent your Christmas in the Great Smoky Mountains and we are happy you enjoyed the holiday. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Our stay was more than exceptional. The cabin was very comfortable and accommodating for my family. Beautiful mountain views from the wrap around deck. The cabin was very well taken care of. The location was close to everything in Pigeon Forge. The communication was outstanding with the owner and the housekeeper. The day after we left this wonderful vacation the wild fires got out of control, I pray that everyone in the Smokys are safe. I have no doubt this community will come together and rebuild this beautiful destination.
Owner Response
We are so glad you were able to get away to the Great Smoky Mountains with your family. We love to hear we exceed peoples expectations. We too love sitting on the wrap around deck and enjoying the view. Our area has not been affected by the tragic fires. They were mainly up in the mountains of Gatlinburg. The Pigeon Forge Strip has also not been affected. From what I understand, the Gatlinburg stip is still fine as well. So, I am hopeful that the are will recover quickly.
The booking process was extremely easy! Owners were engaged throughout our stay. Beautiful yet comfortable home! Slept like a baby on the comfortable mattresses after long days on our feet. The views were incredible!! Looking forward to our next stay!
Owner Response
It was an absolute pleasure working with you. It sounds like you made the most of your days in the Great Smoky Mountains and enjoyed your evenings at Smoky Mountain Splendor. That is exactly how I like to vacation here in Pigeon Forge. We look forward to working with you again.
What a beautiful cabin!! Words can't describe the beauty of the inside. It has plenty of room and is well stocked. We had a wonderful family get together and made great memories. The downstairs bedroom is amazing. It is very large with a fireplace, sitting area, Jacuzzi tub, and a very large closet. The main floor and kitchen is roomy enough that 8 of us enjoyed comfortably. The owners made sure we were settled in and available if we had any needs. I would definitely stay here again.
Owner Response
We love to hear that people are going home with wonderful memories of our Smoky Mountain Vacation Cabin. We are so glad you enjoyed your time. We look forward to working with you again.
Awesome stay!! It was everything we expected. We had a nice sunset view this time of year and could see many mountains in the distance. Upstairs with video game consoles and games. Theater chairs! Main floor living room and kitchen well stocked with anything you need. Downstairs main bedroom with jacuzzi and fireplace and washer dryer and huge closet to unpack all your belongings. A charcoal grill outside! A hot tub ready for you to relax. An alarm system to make you feel safe. We had a cell phone signal the whole time and the internet worked great and was fast. This rental is close to pigeon forge an easy drive and the manager/owners were very attentive more than we needed! We didn't have any issues at all!

We are so glad that you found everything you needed to enjoy your Smoky Mountain Vacation. We thought we were buying a cabin that was a little further out and it would be harder to get around Pigeon Forge and get into the Great Smoky Mountains. However, we have found that it is very easy to get around town and we can utilize the back roads to stay off of the Pigeon Forge Parkway and out of the traffic. The Metcalf Bottoms picnic area is about 10 miles from the cabin and has a nice leisurely drive into the Great Smoky Mountains. We enjoyed working with you.
The cabin perfectly fits our needs of 3 couples. The view is gorgeous , all the facility left are very handy we make the place our home immediately. Not mention detail hiking instruction provided make our trip so easy and efficient. Relaxing in the hot tub with starry night and ice cream combination made our last night even better. All in all, we love our experience in the cabin and really appreciate the hospitality of owner.
Owner Response
We love to hear that people felt at home in our cabin. We are glad you found the information we left in the cabin handy. We are so happy we could help you enjoy your Smoky Mountain Vacation.
My wife and I accompanied my daughter and her husband. The trip was fantastic. The accommodations were fantastic and we enjoyed staying there very much. Should we come back, we will definitely look into renting your cabin. I especially enjoyed the short distance to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
Owner Response
We were surprised at how easily we could get around town from "Smoky Mountain Splendor". It is less than 5 miles to the Pigeon Forge Parkway at traffic light number 3. It is a short drive to the Island in Pigeon Forge, Tanger Outlets or The Pigeon Forge Diner to name just a few of the many wonderful things to do in the area. We are so happy you and your daughter could make some wonderful memories in our cabin. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Smokey Mountain Splendor cabin. Everything was just as it was pictured and described. This is the nicest cabin we have stayed in on our trips to the area. We will definitely be back! I would recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg, TN.
Owner Response
Thank you for your kind words about "Smoky Mountain Splendor". We are honored to be ranked as the nicest cabin you have stayed in the area. We look forward to having you back again on your next trip to the Great Smoky Mountains.
My first time in the smokey mountain area. I have to say It was amazing. Where should I begin? With the beauty of the cabin or the location? How about both! First the cabin; they say first impressions mean everything and this place makes a hell of a first impression! Pictures do not do justice for this place. Second the location; if your looking for peace and quiet and a place to disconnect this Is it. Every cool fresh air morning as I drank my coffee on the beautiful wrap around deck And cherished the view and I felt at peace. For myself it was a truly relaxing experience. Not to mention the smoky mountains,if your someone who loves the outdoors like myself This is the place to explore. Truly Gods country. I could write a book about this place and all it has to offer,but to really know what I'm talking about you must experience it for yourself. I am definitely looking forward to my next trip, and staying here again!
Owner Response
We are so glad that we were a part of helping you unwind and disconnect for a few days. It sounds like you did just that. We are so glad we could help you make great memories of the Great Smoky Mountains. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
This was the 3rd time I visited The Smoky Mountains. I was blown away at the size, comfort and decor of the cabin. I slept well. The open concept first floor was dreamy. The kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking tools and small appliances I have at home. The large furniture was a beautiful statement to the cabin and looked like it was chosen by a professional designer. The air conditioner worked well. We were close to everything but when we sat outside on the porch to watch the view you could hear nothing but the wildlife. The water feature was soothing and the humming birds were fun to watch. We saw some wild turkeys walking around one evening returning from dinner. You can quickly get into Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg, where there are a multitude of choices for meals, shopping, nightlife. The State Pare offers lists of different trails and waterfall hikes. There are a lot of zip-line places. I walked on the suspension bridge close-by. Weather we hiked, shopped or just went out this was a great "home" to come back to. I hope it's available next visit. I am sure once the word gets out this place will be booked solid.
Owner Response
It sounds like you had an action packed week. We too love the location. We have quickly learned how to get around Sevierville / Gatlinburg / Pigeon Forge by the back roads. We always love to hear that people were comfortable enough in our cabin to call it home for their stay. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
As soon as I walked in, I was amazed by the cathedral ceilings. We walked into the main level bedroom and thought it was a very nice master suite. Wrong! The master suite is downstairs and it is huge! This is definitely a great place to stay. It is so quite and peaceful yet close to everything. Every morning a humming bird would either visit right outside the window as I did dishes or fly around as we were sitting on the deck. Every once in a while we could see a few wild turkeys walking by. Can't wait to come back!
Owner Response
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It sounds like you really took the time to enjoy the cabin and the quiet neighborhood. I too enjoy the frequent visitors to Crest View. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
This cabin far exceeded my expectations!! The cabin has large, well decorated rooms and the beds were really comfortable. The master suite downstairs and the great room were really impressive. The cabin is located on a circle so there was little to no traffic on the street, very quiet and private. We enjoyed the mornings on the deck overlooking the mountains. We were visited by a hummingbird both mornings as we sat and drank our coffee. We walked the streets of Gatlinburg, visited the Island and sampled a bit of "moonshine". We hiked Laural Falls and just missed a bear by about 15 minutes!! It was a nice hike and not to strenuous. I highly recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the area. the cabin is only about 10 minutes from the "Parkway" in Pigeon Forge and we found a side entrance into the Smoky Mountain National Park from Wears Valley Road that we explored and found ourselves at the visitors center and close to Gatlinburg!! We look forward to returning when we can spend more time in the cabin and explore more of the area.
Owner Response
It sounds like you really enjoyed exploring the Wears Valley Area. There are really a lot of things to do in the area. We love the back way to Gatlinburg through The Metcalf Bottoms Picnic Area as well. It is a nice country road without all the traffic. We love to hear that your expectations were exceeded. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
I don't even know where to begin, we felt like we found the jackpot! We rented a cabin for a friends wedding at bluff mountain inn and this was just moments away. All our friends were so jealous of our cabin! Smokey mountain splendor is the perfect cabin. From the moment you walk in the door you are blown away, wether it's the tall cathedral ceilings, the incredible view or the massive master sweet down stairs you will be more than impressed. We did not have any issues during our stay. We even changed last minute to head down a day early and that was quickly arranged! This cabin is a small drive to gatlinburg or pigeon forge, you will be thankful to be a little outside of town as traffic can get crazy. We loved being in a quiet tucked away area, but only moments from the action! If you are looking for an amazing spacious, clean cabin with a million dollar view don't look any further.. This is it!
Owner Response
Thank you for that wonderful review. We just purchased this cabin and were also blown away when we entered. We love the location of Smoky Mountain Splendor as well. It is less than 5 miles to the Pigeon Forge Parkway, yet you feel like you are far away. It is very quiet and peaceful. There is a Kroger grocery store less than 5 miles away at traffic light number 3 in Pigeon Forge. It is very convenient to use the back roads to get around Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Sevierville. There is even a back entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Wears Valley.
This cabin is the nicest one I have stayed in this area. I usually visit at least once a year and have stayed at many cabins in the area so when I say it is the nicest, believe it!! The décor is very nice and the rooms are very large. Both decks are very nice for sitting on in the mornings and evenings to relax. It feels remote but is only a short distance from all of the conveniences of shopping, eating, and fun adventures. So quiet and serene. The owner was very informative with how to access the cabin, use of the hot tub, etc. We had such a relaxing time. I would highly recommend this cabin and will definitely be reserving again.
Owner Response
We are so honored to be ranked the nicest cabin you have stayed in. It sounds like you really took the time to relax on your vacation. We are glad that Smoky Mountain Splendor could help you do just that. We also love sitting on the deck and enjoying the peacefulness of the Wears Valley area.
We visit the Smoky Mountains at least once a year and have stayed at many cabins in the area. This one was by far the nicest we have stayed in. As you walk in the door you enter in the living room and dining room, with the cathedral ceilings it definitely takes your breath away! The rooms were very large and it was very nicely decorated. The lot was also large and plenty of room for grilling and the kids. But my favorite thing is sitting on the deck in the morning with my coffee, looking out on the beautiful view. It is so quiet and peaceful.... The kids loved the loft area with the bed, shuffleboard and the media style chairs facing the big TV. They even had their own bathroom!! The cabin is also located within easy reach of the "Parkway" in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the area. Walt
Owner Response
We are so glad you had a good time at Smoky Mountain Splendor. I too love the quietness of the cabin. At home it seems like I get up and immediately have something on my list of things to do. It is a welcomed change to be able to get my coffee and just sit and enjoy the peacefulness of the area. The view always seems to relax me somehow. We love the spaciousness of the cabin. There are times when we are there that I actually have to go and check on the kids because I cannot even hear them. We love the easy access to The Great Smoky Mountains, Wears Valley, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. The location seems to be centrally located. It is very easy to get to the Island in Pigeon Forge or shopping in the Tanger Outlets. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
I've stayed in other cabins in the great smoky mountains but as soon as i walked in smoky mountain splender it was just wow.....2 incredible masters each with there own garden tub and a loft with it's own full bath. It also had everything you could think of. We were even able to play corn hole in the backyard. While we were there for some reason we couldn't get the storm door closed we called the owner which was extremely nice and we had a repairman there in an hour....i would highly recommend this cabin.
Owner Response
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. One of the things we love about Smoky Mountain Splendor is the yard. There are so many possibilities for outdoor activities. Another is its proximity to Wears Valley / Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg. We just love the two spacious master suites as well. The cabin is set up to be romantic for just a couple, yet it has so much space for an entire family to enjoy themselves.
Perfect week in lovely cabin
We’ve been visiting the Smoky Mountains for years and this was by far our favorite cabin. It was beautifully decorated, fully stocked, easily accessible and exceptionally clean!! We will definitely see if this cabin is available in our future visits.

We are so glad you had a perfect week. We are honored that we are your favorite "Smoky Mountain Cabin". We try to think of everything you will need to have the perfect Pigeon Forge Vacation. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.

Had a great time on our trip. Cabin location was perfect, quiet area but not too far from town! Only issues were with the AC in the cabin Would definitely return!
Owner Response
So glad you enjoyed your stay. We too love the location. It seems like you are way out in the country, but you can be just about anywhere you would like to be in the Pigeon Forge area in no time. We have 3 AC units. Luckily the only unit that was having a hard time keeping up was the loft. We are glad we had extra Freon put in it within hours of you checking in, so you could enjoy the rest of your stay.
Cabin in the mountains
We wanted a cabin with pampering amenities, a beautiful view, and a quite spot to relax and strengthen family ties. This is the total package and the foam mattresses will give you a solid night’s sleep 😴. There is more than enough room to gather or find your own quite place. Truly enjoyable and a close drive to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountain Park entrance.
Owner Response
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. A good night sleep is always important. We try to make our beds as comfortable as possible. We too love the country feel of the cabin while sitting on the deck in the morning and hearing nothing but roosters crowing in the distance. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
The perfect cabin for us
We absolutely loved this cabin. It was clean, spacious, beautiful and very comfortable and welcoming. The best cabin we have ever stayed in. The location was great, it was peaceful And not too far away from attractions that we wanted to attend. We will definitely try to rent this cabin again.
Owner Response
We love to hear that our guests felt welcome. We too love the setting. It is so nice to sit out on the deck in the morning and enjoy the mountain views. We look forward to working with you again on your next Smoky Mountain Vacation.

Wonderful Family Getaway
This cabin truly exceeded our expectations! The property was immaculately clean and the layout worked perfectly for our group. We enjoyed the spacious deck with stunning views. The property manager was communicative and helpful, making recommendations for day trips and sightseeing. I cannot recommend this rental highly enough!
Owner Response
We are so glad you found the information we email our guests helpful. We try to arm our guests with everything they need to have a Great Family Vacation in the Smoky Mountains. That includes information about the Sevierville / Gatlinburg / Pigeon Forge area. We too love the wrap around deck. We try to start our day their with our coffee listening to the roosters in the distance while we drink our coffee. We also try to end our day on the deck watching the sun go down and the stars come out. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Worth every penny
Overall an AMAZING Experience. This cabin is breathe taking along with the view. Can't wait to come back in the near future!

Social distance getaway
That cabin was great. Nice location. Liked having a grassy area. My kids loved all the games she had. Perfect for our family
Owner Response
We try to cater towards families. We have many board games, books, colored pencils, paper, etc... We have toys, gaming systems, shuffleboard table and media area. The setting is perfect for little ones. We have a horse and donkey who sometimes come up the hill from the farm behind us and visit. So glad your children enjoyed the games.

Spacious, well maintained cabin. Away from the busy parkway, yet close enough for a short drive to get to all the nearby attractions.

Perfect for Family Vacation - Great Views, Nicely located to attractions but away from tourists.
We stayed at the Smoky Mountain Splendor from June 24-29, 2018. This was a great time of the year to visit the area as it wasn't too hot yet! The house is tucked away in a nice little area of other cabins (some privately owned and some other vacation rentals). Each has a nice size lot and privacy, we were pleasantly surprised to have such a great view from the main deck and hot tub, and never felt crowded by other cabins like some of the other areas in town. My husband and I found that the home was designed well for our family with three sons, ages 16, 14, and 9. The upstairs loft had a full bed with a full bath and a game room. The main level had a nice size kitchen, family area and opens to the massive deck overlooking the Smokies. The main level also has a master bedroom and bath. The basement is HUGE and is really the true master sweet, and also has a sofa sleeper. There was also a washer/dryer on this level. We found this area to be a great combination of getting back to nature and proximity to area attractions/restaurants. We were there four full days (Monday-Thursday) and enjoyed hikes and drives in Smoky Mountain National Park. We found the weekday schedule to be great and less crowded than the weekends here. If you can leave the cabin by 8 a.m., it is an easy drive to hikes or scenic drives, and you will find better parking/less lines. We also did tubing at the River Rat in Townsend one day. Ripley's Aquarium was a true surprise and one of the best aquariums I've been to in the nation. We hit it at dinner time one evening for less crowds. Highly recommend this property and the owner was very gracious and easy to communicate with! We stay some place different around the country each year, and this has been one of our best vacation rental experiences.
Owner Response
We too love the area. It is just far enough away to feel like you are off in the country, yet close enough to be in Pigeon Forge / Sevierville or the Great Smoky Mountains in no time. We are so glad you had such a good vacation. We too did the river rat on our last trip and thought it was a great family fun activity. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Breath Taking
The pictures do not do this place justice, it is breath taking. The owners are amazing and super helpful. The cabin was spotless and had everything you could need. Very close to everything but still has the private feel to it. We had no issues at all with any part of the cabin. Anytime I am returning, this will be the cabin I will book from now on if it is available. Hands down best all around...did not want to leave.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We try to think of everything our guests will need to have one of their best Smoky Mountain Vacations ever. We are so glad you were pleased with "Smoky Mountain Splendor".

This place is amazing! The location is perfect, it is close enough to all of the action of Pigeon Forge, but far enough away that you feel very secluded. There are neighbors that are in the same area, but even though the cabins were occupied, they are far enough away that we did not notice them. It is difficult for me to describe just how clean the cabin was. I have stayed at many cabins in the Smokies and typically when you first walk in you have that moment where all of the dust particles in the place are whipped up and you can see all of them sparkle in the sunlight. This place, had NO DUST! There was NOTHING floating in the air. We are neat freaks, and spent a few minutes walking around looking for dust, there was nothing for us to find. My only complaint is the amount of pillows that are given, there are plenty on the bed but most of them are "decorative" and I didn't feel comfortable using them. A problem that is easily rectified by bringing a pillow. Finally, my daughter forgot one of her stuffed animals and I worked with the owner and the cleaning personnel to have it returned to us. They took care of it extremely quickly. I highly recommend this cabin if you are staying in Pigeon Forge.

We are so happy you had an amazing time. We too are surprised at how quickly you can be in the middle of things from the cabin. It feels like you are way out in the country. We are glad we were able to get your daughter back her beloved stuffed animal quickly. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and the beautiful picture.
