Like, so-gorgeous-it's-hard-to-describe kind of views. And we saw a bear frolicking in the distance in the woods! An incredible set of wraparound mountain views and the perfect patio for a glass of wine. The place was sparkling clean in a way that Airbnb can be hit or miss, so I really appreciated the clearly diligent cleaning protocol.
Our kids loved the swimming pool, which actually gets up to 4 or 5 feet deep, and as a water safety nervous parent, I really appreciated the involved lock and alarm system on the pool room door.
And another major highlight was that we were able to get Gatlinburg Mobile Massage to come right to the house and oh my god we felt like geniuses. Definitely recommend!
The not-quite-as-stellar aspects of our visit included one of the deck areas being out of commission with a "do not use" sign, and we also had a pipe burst during our stay. Sarah & co. were quick to bring out a plumber and resolve it, and I understand these things happen.
