We just met a bunch of friends in TN that we hadn't seen in years. This was a great place for it, and I do not think you can find a better value for the size and quality.

Pros:
- the house is in immaculate condition, very well kept. Hot tub was clean
- very well equipped. Kitchen had everything needed and more (pots, pans, utensils, etc.)
- very nice grill, can actually grill large meals on it
- beds were very comfortable
- tv hook-up in media room was great, not just DVDs.

Cons:
-the fireplaces are electric with the "glowing coals". This was a big let down for everyone since we were excited to sit by a fire and catch-up
-the walls and floors are thin, so the babies were frequently waking up to laughs and talking, it was a small inconvenience. If you have older kids and if you all go to bed about the same time it wouldn't be much of a concern at all.
-the house is kind of in a development with active construction still. Not exactly a isolated setting, but it did have a nice view and the construction didn't pose a problem other than altering the outdoor setting a bit.

Overall this is probably the nicest vacation rental I have stayed at, and certainly the best value I have had recently. I would highly recommend staying here, and will certainly consider staying again in the future.

We had the best time ever !! It was my mother's 65th birthday and ppl came from Ga, CA, and TN! We had a talent show in the huge living room, showed a video of 65 years of pictures of my mother in the Theatre room, played minute to win it and a good time was had by all. The bedrooms were nice and comfortable for all too. Large dining table that everyone ate all together. We were going to zip line but it rained so we just hung out and laughed and had a wonderful time. Went to Dollywood nearby. This is a great place for a family get together for adults and kids...not sure who played the games the most!!

For our annual vacation we decided to go to Tennesse this year. It is very hard to find a nice home that will accomodate 21 people. Well this is the house. 13 adults and 8 children stayed comfortably. The house is beautiful and spacious. The view is unbelievable. The beds were wonderful. We were even able to eat together combining the dining room and kitchen. And it very close to all attractions such as Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. But, far enough away to have peace and quiet. Every family member kept repeating themselves saying this is the best vacation so far. If we ever come back to Tennesse this will be the place we would want to stay.
