Great location

This cabin fit all our needs. It was a great location from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. It had all the amenities we needed. The driveway is the only downfall. It is super steep and twisty! Other than that it was great!

Perfect location

The cabin was very clean! Great instructions posted for instructions! We loved where we were, nestled in with some Mountain View’s off the deck and in the master suite and close to grocery store, gas station, and places to eat! Easy drive to downtown, trolley stop, and out to the national park. Our kids loved playing ping pong, the little arcade and relaxing in the hot tub! Plenty of kitchen dining for us all too!

The cabin was nice along with surrounding wooded area. However the screened in porch was overrun by spider webs. We had issues with outlets not working outside along with some inside. Several of the clocks did not work, perhaps bad batteries. Ping pong table was missing, a huge disappointment for all. Hot tub had plenty of room but the jets did not work. We enjoyed our stay none the less.

Gorgeous cabin!

We loved the location of this property. Quiet and secluded with a beautiful view of the mountains from the huge porch. Super clean, an awesome lower level, and plenty of space. My only (tiny) complaint was the limited number of throw blankets for cold mornings and evenings and no measuring cups that we could find (we cook most meals on vacations). Loved the proximity to so many cute shops that weren’t in the middle of Gatlinburg’s busy downtown. Great stay!

Positives and negtives

The entire room was spacious and could use a bit more cleaning. Under the couch was dirt and dust. The Internet was excellent. Negatives- the added cost of 750.00 and 250.00. Didn't know it would be more than half of the cost of the house. The stairs they are a triping hazard, rickety, and banter hanstire was sticky. The poach was Filthy. There was mousepoop under the swing, and the chair pads were very dirty and dusty. The swing. Cobwebs all over the porch area.

Great location- could use some changes- awesome hostOutdated and very worn out furniture.The ping pong table pictured and listed isn’t there. We had some issues like a broken bed, railings, dead bugs and dirty furniture when we arrived. Dirty dishes still in the dishwasher. But we contacted the host and he sent someone over the following morning to fix the railing and bed. Lots of dishes for cooking.
Chair looks like someone died and left there.

Glades Getaway

We stayed in the cabin for 4 nights, took my teenaged daughter and her friend. The cabin is set up nicely, plenty of room, and the wrap around deck is awesome. Beds were comfy, and the place was clean. We love the location the cabin is in because you can avoid all the big traffic in Gatlinburg. Only drawback is the driveway, it’s very steep and pulling out onto the main road can be tricky.
