Friends talked us into booking a trip to Gatlinburg. They found this lodge online and told us about…read moreit. We all booked and we could not be happier that we did! The hosts are incredible! The level of hospitality is beyond anything we have ever experienced at any other resort or hotel for that matter. Each room has your own private bathroom and slide glass door facing out to the National Forest or to the courtyard of the property. It is a 6 minute walk down the hill and you are right in the middle of all the town action. The hosts spared no expense in amenities, decor and make you feel right at home! We will be back asap!

From the owner: We are a private guest house for men only aged 21+. Located 0.3 mile from the Parkway, we are…read moreclose to everything in Gatlinburg but far enough away to be peaceful and relaxing. Relax in the 6 man hot tub after a day of hiking or sight seeing in the Great Smoky Mountains. The lodge backs up to the national park so you never know what animals may coming walking by.

The building itself is very nice. It looks like recent construction…read more We were surprised and disappointed by several things: 1. There were no hangars in the house to hang our clothes (why have closets?) 2. There were 10 bars of soap and no shampoo or conditioner anywhere 3. None of the windows had curtains. Very strange for bedrooms not to have them. 4. We weren't told not to drink the water until we arrived and read the book. Had to buy. 5. There's a washer and dryer but no laundry detergent 6. There were large spider webs everywhere outside the house (poor showing) 7. There were spider webs inside the house, even in the master shower. Need dustmop. 8. Several outside light bulbs were inop. Poor attention to detail. 9. Main floor shower door is installed incorrectly. Doesn't close, no water seal. Poor. 10. There's a coffeemaker but no coffee - paperweight. 11. Main floor bathroom sink has no stopper, just a hole. I paid almost $450/night to rent the cabin. I think that should more than cover my expectations above. Having coffee, shampoo, laundry detergent, hangars, and other consumables is a minimum standard for a lodging rental. If water isn't potable, there should be a few bottles of water to start the guests off and give them time to shop. Curtains or shades should be installed for light control as well as privacy. Other family members can see in from decks, plus most people don't want morning sun right away when they wake up. Shower door installation tells me that shoddy workmanship was used in construction. Glad I'm not the owner. Final note: we arrived and checked out the house and views from the balconies. After reading the guest book, we looked for bears down below. When we returned after dinner in town, we found that someone had placed about 6-8 bread slices on the ground below the cabin balconies. I assume it was to attract bears. The strange thing is that there are no neighbors anywhere nearby, and the area "down below" wouldn't have access by anyone else. Strange.

My Fiancé and I stayed here April 5-7 2019. The location of the cabin is great. But we will not be…read moregoing back to this cabin. We come to Gatlinburg 4-5 times a year and we are on the search for a new home away from home to rent, needless to say this will not be the one. No pillow cases, the fireplace glass was black and never cleaned, the beds hard. And the hot tub only got up to 90*.

Since they don't let you see their reviews on Google, I'll review them here…read more DO NOT use this company. We stayed in Honey Bear Hideaway. During the weekend of the 24th of August. There were several issues we had. One being the cleanliness of the place. Trash from April from other guests lying around. Dirty hair ties in the corner of one of the showers. Even one in the corner of the room. Dust and cobwebs everywhere. Rundown furniture. Grease on kitchen cabinets above stove. Furniture was worn down and very uncomfortable. And the Tv remotes didn't want to work. The one in the bedroom didn't work at all. And both the bedroom and living room remotes had batteries taped in them. The backs were gone. Bad customer service. We were so busy while we were there that we waited til the evening we checked out to email them. But because we had already checked out that day they refused to make the situation right. All they offered was to send the complaint to the housekeeping manager. Apparently this is a common problem with this company. Had I known this beforehand we would have NEVER booked through them. Please give another company your business.

Cabins of the Smoky Mountains - also known as Gatlinburg Falls Resort and other names…read more My group checked into the cabin referred to as Mountain Theatre Lodge which boast of the below: Spacious Accommodations: The lodge features five well-appointed bedrooms, including king and queen beds, along with additional sleeping options to comfortably host up to 14 guests. My Review: This boasts that you can comfortably sleep up to 14 guests in one area- 24 in another, slightly confusing but let's do the math -5 king beds sleep 10, 2 queen bunks sleep 8 total, & 3 sleeper sofas sleep 6, so that would be 24 -no idea why it contradicts itself - possibly to have a crutch to lean on with all the accommodations they don't actually offer. Let's talk about the 3 queen sofa beds, this is only true if you plan to bring your own pillows, blankets & sheets for the pullout couches as not only are none provided but they tell you they will bring some & finally bring them ON THE LAST DAY ... make that make sense. Overall, the house was clean but very damaged-except for the showers which looked like they had not been cleaned at all. Soap wrapper was actually left in one of them. As far as sleep, I hope you don't want to sleep past the sunrise on your vacation as there are NO BLINDS or CURTAINS in almost every room from the back side- bright & early the sun is in your face; no curtains at all on the front side of the house which doesn't help much with the temperature in the summer. Let's talk about washcloths/towels. AT A MINIMUM, we should have been left 24 (since that is what the house sleeps) AT A MINIMUM. We were left 12. Not even enough for everyone that it supposedly sleeps. We called &asked for more, as with everything else, it showed up ON THE LAST DAY. Private Home Theater: Enjoy movie nights in your own theater room, equipped with a large screen and comfortable seating for a cinematic experience. My Review: Comfortable Seating is pushing it but we can live with that, what you can't live with is not even being able to watch anything on the TV "theater" due to the fact that in our 4 nights there, we had internet access for POSSIBLY 6 hours total. We called, texted, & emailed regarding internet service, was told multiple times that a service call was entered-they would get someone out to the cabin. No one EVER came to attempt to fix this issue. Entertainment Options: The game room is equipped with a pool table, air hockey, and arcade games, ensuring entertainment for guests of all ages. My Review: Air Hockey table was unable to be used because the pusher was broken, I called, texted, & emailed about this within the first few hours of arrival,was told they would have a pusher out the next morning;the pusher was finally brought out on our last day. There are NO arcade games. Relaxation Amenities: Unwind in the private hot tub on the deck or relax in the cozy living area after a day of adventure My Review: the hot tub and living area are nice as suggested, however if you look at the photos and think, wow this porch with this swing & rocking chairs look so relaxing and I cannot wait for that .... well wait, there is no longer a swing and the 2 rocking chairs that are out there (so not as many as are shown online) are smaller than shown on the photos & very rickety. Modern Conveniences: The cabin includes a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, complimentary Wi-Fi, and multiple flat-screen TVs with cable/satellite channels. My Review: kitchen is fine, washer and dryer are fine, wifi is non-existent as mentioned above which makes it hard to classify this rental as a "theatre", there is NO CABLE or SATELLITE on ANY TV in the entire cabin. The only TV's that you could even watch while we were there were the two smart TV's that you could connect to your own personal Netflix or other account and that was only for the few hours that we had Wifi to do so. The TV's in the room were POINTLESS. Outdoor Features: Take advantage of the charcoal BBQ grill and deck seating for outdoor dining and relaxation. My Review: you will not see a photo of this grill online, but let me help you with that, it is the $19.99 rickety grill from Walmart that you can put like 4 burgers on at a time. PLEASE SEE PHOTO FOR THE LAST OF MY REVIEW AS HAVING NO WORKING AIR FOR OVER 24 HOURS WAS A FINAL ISSUE.

You cannot drive up to LeConte Lodge because there are no roads. It's on top of one of the highest mountains east of the Rockies. The highest mountain east of the Rockies is Mount Mitchell (in west NC), which is 6,683 feet above sea level. Mount LeConte (in east TN) is 6,594 feet above sea level. Meals and bed linens are transported up the mountain by the lodge employees on the backs of llamas in rain-proof bags (the only place I've seen llamas outside of the Andes is on Mount LeConte). There's no electricity at LeConte Lodge, so you go to bed when it's dark, however they do have lanterns and propane heaters. Bring your own towel.
