Smoky Vistas

We really enjoyed our stay and the Hand Hewn Hidaway! The driveway was definitely a bit sketchy to get up and down, especially at night, but absolutely worth it! The outdoor space/landscaping could use some work, decks and hot tub are nice, but not great outdoor space for kids to play. The indoors was beautifully decorated being nicely updated without feeling too modern for a cabin in the mountains- still had a great cabin/rustic feel! A few minor maintenance issues on the inside as well as a few wasps, but otherwise well maintained. Would definitely recommend and our group is already planning our next stay, hopefully in the same location. The only thing that would take us somewhere else is if our group grows. Thanks for the wonderful stay!

There was so much construction the house rattled when all the equipment was constantly going by. There were skid steers, loaders, excavators, dump trucks.... They were unloading lumber literally 10 ft from the front door of the house at 7am. The hot tun was covered in dirt / dust. The cabin was nice and clean. I feel like the company should have made me aware of all the construction going on when I booked it but they said nothing. We ended up leaving after one day and paying to stay somewhere else so we could have some peace and quiet. I sent them an email and text and all they said was thank you for reaching out, we are sorry to hear about the inconvenience the construction is causing and that they strive to provide a peaceful experience.....

10 18 25 That one star more appropriately would be a 'minus' one The cabin at 1523 Gillespie Way, and named, at the time, " Mountain Bliss", was the subject of an objective, but real time video experience by the renters of that cabin, a Gatlinburg LEO, and the owner-operators of a local vehicle recovery and towing company. This property had been snowed in. This property was on a private driveway. This owner/ management company was clearly negligent in maintaining access between the property and public roadways. As the renters tried to vacate the property, one , a woman, fell on the property and was injured to the degree of needing EMS response. The tow company assisted the EMS ( which had to walk in to the property due to lack of drive maintenance), with transporting the victim of the u

Beautiful cabin! Very, very clean…perfect size; all it said to be- except- no hair dryer—view is gorgeous; and hot tub was awesome after the long hiking days. Saw 2 bears during our stay- and the waterfalls were exceptionally beautiful!! Loved our stay- you will too!! Thanks!

If I could give no stars I would. Negligent to clear their own private property of snow, forcing renters to pay ridiculous fees to the fact they can't get out. A woman broke her ankle trying to walk to her car. EMS couldn't get to them because they refused to clear their own drive way. They were forced to use a tow trucks winch to drag her out on a snow stretcher. Pathetic service. I would avoid using them.
