Creekside Haven-Fantastic Location, Heated Pool!
My family and I had a great time. The place was awesome. First of all, it is super clean. We enjoyed the creek, playground, grilling, the pool, and were able to work at night with the WiFi provided. The location was convenient and peaceful. The house was also loaded with plenty of essentials. The coffee machine was very clean, I usually have to use my own but theirs was clean so I did use it. We would definitely book here again. The owners were responsive and very pleasant.

Peaceful Mountain at Sapphire Valley
Well, my husband and I have stayed there on and off for the last six months for local work, so we know the place well. Sadly, our project has come to an end, so our most recent stay will be our last for work. BUT, we love everything about Todd and Barbie and the house, and we will be back for fun hiking weekends. Hiking, waterfalls, everything nearby. It's the best place we've stayed in the area. Private, squeaky clean, big deck, large dining room table for big meals or spreading out the paperwork, GREAT internet connection and TV options. We'll definitely be back on our own - we feel so comfortable there in every way. I could not recommend any higher - would give it a "10" if I could. Todd and Barbie also bent over backwards to help us with a couple of last-minute schedule changes. Such honest and thoughtful hosts. Thanks Todd and Barbie for EVERYTHING over the last few months. We love you guys!

New Remodel-Pool-Amazing View-Location-Game Room
Wonderful quick getaway for our family of 4! It was beautiful and was described perfectly by Chris and Morgan. Lots for our 2 boys ages 9 and 12, gaming table, pool table, and hot tub. Lots of room and still felt cozy. In the morning we sat out on the deck and enjoyed the views of both downtown Gatlinburg and the beautiful mountains. We also got to watch as the Ober Gatlinburg tramway go by the house. We will definitely be back!

Wears Valley Retreat Dog area Seasonal pool OPEN
I recently had the pleasure of staying at a fantastic cabin in Tennessee, and I can't recommend it enough! The cabin was absolutely wonderful—spotlessly clean and nestled in a beautiful, peaceful area that made for a perfect getaway. One of the highlights of our stay was the hot tub, which provided the ideal spot to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. I was also incredibly thankful that we could bring our fur baby along for the trip. He loved the fenced-in backyard, which allowed him to roam freely and enjoy the great outdoors. Overall, this cabin exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to return for another memorable stay!

Serene 5BR Cabin Pool Playground Theater Game Room
we had a wonderful stay and there was something for everyone. The host was very responsive and helpful. It made for a wonderful holiday stay for our family and friends. Would definitely recommend this home to others.

Mountain View*Pool*King Beds*Nice Roads*No Steps
We really enjoyed our stay. The house is perfect for a multi generational family. It has a split bedroom floor plan, which was perfect. Everything was spotless and in great condition. Everything worked as well. We will return to this home in Wears Valley every time we come to the Smokies! Cassidy was awesome to work with, great communication, helpful with all questions. This is the best home we have stayed in.

Amazing views of Mt Leconte, Pool Access! Hot tub
We had such a wonderful stay at this cabin! The home itself was beautiful—clean, cozy, and well-maintained. Everything we needed was already there, which made our stay so easy and comfortable. The views were absolutely stunning, and we loved being able to relax and take it all in. It truly felt like a peaceful escape. Highly recommend!

It’s close to Asheville, the Smokey Mountains the Blue Ridge Parkway and lots more. The host is very responsive and great communication from check in to check out. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful Mountain Home-Pets!
I think this was our 5th or 6th stay, I’ve lost count. We love this place and will come again!

Sapphire Daze - an amazing view, with a cottage!
Beautiful view and plenty of room for our family. Kerry responded quickly to my questions and gave clear directions. I’m glad she recommended to stay on paved roads since we arrived at night and alternate routes take you down gravel roads. Convenient location for our stay to enjoy snow tubing and amenities at the Sapphire Valley Community Center.

Cozy Blueridge Mountain Retreat
My husband and I were in town for a quick weekend of house hunting, this made a great home base. Lots of little touches that made our stay comfortable and go very smoothly. Great location, private, peaceful. When we come back we’d stay here again for sure.

NC Mountain House | Mountain Views, Hot Tub & EV
We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb with our family of 10, ranging from a baby to grandparents. The house was meticulously maintained and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing trip. The layout was perfect, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out while still having great common areas for gathering. Every room was beautifully designed, so no one felt like they got the “lesser” room. The views were absolutely incredible, and we loved the added amenities—board games, foosball, a jacuzzi, and a grill. The host was fantastic—super responsive, helpful with local recommendations, and proactive in keeping us informed about a nearby fire. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this home for any group looking for a relaxing and well-equipped retreat!

Rita’s Smokey Mountain Lodge
Great place to travel between cities and visit Smoky Mountains. Nice, quiet area and the trails on the property were great. Rita's place had everything you need for a home away from home. We'll stocked for cooking meals and great resturants nearby. We recommend a ride on the Smoky Mountain Railroad!! Thank you Rita for sharing your home..

Turtle Trax
Our second time staying at Turtle Trax with Rachel. Everything was wonderful and we love the little touches she adds. This will be our go to place to stay in Cherokee, NC!

Smoky Mountain Luxury Retreat - Getaway in the Mtn
We booked Aaron's home for a family getaway. The house was amazing & clean. I think the sunroom was our favorite room. The view was beautiful! There were TV's in every room even though we didn't watch much TV. The basement was like a completely different living space. Would be nice for teenagers to get away from parents. Honestly, there's just too much to compliment but our favorites besides the sunroom & view was the kitchen & the bathrooms. The main bathroom felt like a luxury hotel. Massive shower, heated floors. The only thing we had issue with was we couldn't figure out how to start the dishwasher & towel warmers in the bathrooms but thats "first world problems"! My only suggestion would be to have instructions on how to start appliances. All in all, the home was gorgeous, we felt very comfortable there & we were able to bring our pup along. We would definitely stay again!

Luxury Home, Best Views, Close to Town
We had a great family stay at SKYHAUS. Very clean and comfortable. Beautiful view. Great parking. Close to town. Daniel is a great host. Very responsive to questions, etc. Can’t wait to go back.

*Not damaged-Cabin on 60 acres -Starlink Internet!
Looking for a private mountain top escape? This fits the bill! Beautiful views are a given. The house is comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. My kids were disappointed it wasn’t a full size pool table but still played several games. I’d caution anyone without 4 wheel drive not to try the driveway during the winter months or even very rainy times. We had a great time hiking nearby trails, hanging out at the house, and enjoying the peace of the mountain. There were a couple maintenance issues but we asked they be solved after we left. Our host was always quick to answer any questions and was helpful. We enjoyed our stay!

Mountain Creek Escape! 2 Living Rooms & 2 Decks!
We appreciated the attention to detail! Overall very nicely decorated. Well stocked with games, dog supplies, and even two coffee bars (upstairs and downstairs). The sound of the small babbling brook below was peaceful.
