If you’re looking for a cabin in the Great Smokey Mountains area your search has ended. Make the trek up to the top of the hill to the Misty Mountain Hop. Where when you open the door to the cabin you’ll be met with a fresh clean smelling cabin, step inside and you’ll immediately be greeted with a remarkable view of the mountains. The place has large comfortable beds, an awesome porch, comfy sofas, a gas grill, and kitchen equipped to cook some tasty meals. There is an easy hiking trail just outside the front door. It’s also centrally located to all the mountain activities. I’d recommend the zip line outfit Climb Works for an exciting time. We had the opportunity to speak with Luke on the phone to help us trouble shoot an issue with the TV. He was very responsive and the ladies in my party loved his voice. This was the second stop on my Tennessee trip and the quiet and solitude was welcome relief from the crowds in Nashville. And since this place has a lyrical name let me leave you with a couple of verses. So let me move over and let Jimi take over … Well, she's walking through the clouds, With a circus mind that's running wild, Butterflies and Zebras, And Moonbeams and fairy tales. That's all she ever thinks about. Riding with the wind. When I'm sad, she comes to me, With a thousand smiles she gives to me free. It's alright, she says it's alright, Take anything you want from me, Anything. Fly on little wing. ~Papa T

I'm late writing this review, but better late then never is what I always say lol. The stay was wonderful! It is an absolute BEAUTIFUL place, has a very "Homey" feel to it. We stayed Feb23-25th, for our annual weekend get-away, and am so Glad we found this lil gem. The mountain views are WONDERFUL. It is close to Ober Ski Resort, we watched ppl going down on the tubes from our balcony. One thing to be aware of, where u are so high up, that at nites the wind can get strong, real strong, I told my husband I wonder if it was like that in the Summer or just winter. One thing did not work during our stay, the VCR in the bedroom did not work, no big deal but kinda a bummer when ur 4 yr old granddaughter has discovered the VHS Disney movies that they have there for u lol, but like I said no big deal. The only issue we had, which turned out to be my mistake, was when we arrived I couldn't get ahold of the owner to get the code to unlock the door and get inside. The front desk n I both called and no luck. I told her that I would check my inbox again and make sure they hadnt sent it, I looked only to see that they had actually sent all that info like a week ahead before I got there. I felt so dumb n embarrassed as to the experience with previous owners while going on vacation they never would send that info until the day I arrived, never would have guessed this one was sent a week early. Like I said, it wasnt the owners fault that I didnt look and pay attention to my messages in my inbox. The owner called me that night making sure I got in, I explained what happened and I apologized for my stupid mistake. He said that from then on that he would update his info to have his cell number n not just his house number since he was out that nite, he apologized to me, but like I said it was my fault for not paying attention to the previous messages. Our stay was wonderful, rental was very nice and very clean. We will def come back next year!

I was hesitant to book this cabin months ago because it had few reviews. Booking this cabin turned out to be the best vacation decision ever! When we arrived, and my wife walked in for the first time, she was so happy with what she saw. She hadn't seen many of the pictures before then and couldn't believe how pretty it was. This experience checked all the boxes. Cleanliness, a mountain view, a convenient location, responsiveness of the hosts, essential amenities, and a comfortable chill vibe. Joey and Gina could not be nicer or more helpful. The mountain view from the master bedroom balcony is incredible. The cabin is a quick drive into the central part of town and about 15 minutes to an excellent gym (321 Fit). Please note you must go down a few steps from the main entrance to the cabin's front door. Keep that in mind if you struggle with luggage and stairs. Ultimately we both felt the same about our stay. 1) It was a transformative experience that changed what we consider the ideal living surroundings. 2) We felt more "at home" there than at home. 3) We didn't want to leave. This was the first stop of our 3 part trip. We cut our Nashville stop short a couple of days just so we could extend our stay at this beautiful, peaceful home. That should tell you how we valued our experience in this cabin. A final note about driving, if mountain roads are new or scary to you. This was my first time driving in this type of area. We rented a GMC Acadia, and it handled the roads fine as a mid-size SUV. I got used to the roads pretty quickly. However, I would have probably been more comfortable with a smaller SUV, like a Rav 4 or Nissan Murano. You will likely need to navigate steep, narrow, or intimidating roads no matter where you stay in Gatlinburg. I drove responsibly with careful respect for the surroundings, and it went ok.

This is the cleanest cabin I have ever stayed in! The owners are fantastic to communicate with! They get back to you quickly and always have an answer or suggestion! They helped me so much with getting my Mom a vacation there. Mom is on oxygen and can't get around much and the owners made sure she was comfortable as well as my Husband and I. The cabin is amazing! The hot tub was ahhhhmaazing!!!!! My hubby and I enjoyed it while it snowed one afternoon! Very nice time. The beds are very comfortable. The roads to get to the cabin are...well...in a mountain! They are curvy. They can be a bit steep. All this is expexted when you rent a cabin in the mountains! Arrive in the day time to get a better feel if it is possible but really no big deal for us getting to and from the cabin! All in all this was one fantastic vacation to remember! 100% recommended to everyone!!!! Thank you to the Owners for allowing us to stay!!!

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was our 3rd time renting a cabin in the Smokey Mountains. This was our favorite. It was a good balance of having a great view but also close proximity to grocery store, things to do etc. Also the cabin was set up great to sleep children and adults-bunk bed room and 3 other bedrooms. I like that all the bedrooms were on the same level. Other cabins we stayed had bedrooms on different levels which made me uncomfortable with little ones possibly waking in the night. The game room and theater rooms kept the kids entertained so the adults could relax. Everything was super clean and well maintained. The only complaint I would have is that there were no dressers in the bedrooms to unpack our clothes into. Not a big deal- we only stayed 3 nights so living our of suitcases - not a big deal. We would definitely stay here again overall a great property!

We enjoyed this mountain getaway 10-9-23 to 10-16-23. This mountain condo was just as listed on VRBO. The condo had all amenities needed for your stay. The pots included for cooking were also in great shape. The condo was very clean and comfy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The views are great and we did see a bear from balcony eating on plastic bag of trash 😢, and then sprawled out on ground sunning and then on his or her back scratching tummy. (Sooo cute) . The roads leading to and from condo were a little exciting (anxiety) for one of our travelers, but rest of us loved it. However , I don’t think I’d like to drive up and down in icy or snowy conditions. The only negative of condo is the very soft beds, but it’s a personal preference for firmness. We enjoyed great colors on our drive through the National park to Clingmans Dome, then to Cherokee and then to Parkway as recommended by condo owner. If you wish to see views at Clingman Dome, start your drive there very early 7:30 to 8am and drive straight there without stopping for pictures of views or you will hit traffic jam and not get to Clingmans Dome. You can then make all the stops you want on your way down from Dome to take in beautiful colors and views. You won’t be disappointed by this condo.

What a true gem in Gatlinburg! As soon as you walk in, you know you are in a special place. It looks exactly like the pictures you see on Air BBB. Laura has put so many small touches in to make guests feel at home. The fridge is stocked with waters and juice. The fruit bowl has fruit, candy, and moon pies! Yum! Our little Morkie loved that there were balls just for her to play with., along with dog bowls for here. My husband walks with a walker but had no problem moving around in the house and navigating the shower. Everything is immaculate. The backyard is a very quiet retreat. We didn’t have a chance to use the fire pit but it looked so inviting. Our only regret was that we didn’t allow enough time. So we already booked it for a future longer stay. It’s in a great area of Gatlinburg, away from the crazy crowds. You only have to fight the traffic if you want to. Thank you, Laura for a wonderful stay! PS. If you are traveling with kids, get them to do a scavenger hunt for all the “moon” decorations. The house is loaded with then, indoor and out!

We stayed at Chipmunk Corner for a week over the July 4th holiday. Family including 5 adults and our dogs, and the cabin was more than spacious enough and very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed morning coffee on the main deck, the ultra comfortable downstairs media/game area, and capping off a full day in the hot tub each evening. We were on-the-go daily to attractions in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and several areas of the National Park. This location was ideal for quick travel to all of those areas while still being secluded and quiet away from those busy tourist spots. The best of both worlds. I can’t say enough good things about our hosts. Mike and Amanda are more than generous with recommendations on where to go and what to do. We messaged them quite often and they are very helpful and responsive. Even when one of our pets created a bit of a problem, they were so kind and understanding. They were the most outstanding hosts we’ve ever met on any vacation rental…and we use rental sites fairly often. Five stars plus! When back in this area we will definitely stay at Chipmunk Corner again.
