Top Forbidden Caverns Hotel Reviews

Smoky Mountain Area Relaxation, Recreation, Family and Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place secluded yet not far from anything"

Retreat Cabin: Gatlinburg•Pigeon Forge • Dollywood • Sevierville

10/10 Excellent

"Great for a weekend get away! Host was amazing!"

Serene Cabin Hideaway, Sleeps 8・Pet Friendly・Deck

8/10 Good

"The cabin itself was absolutely beautiful! It was not as secluded as I thought it would be for it to be that far out in the country. The host messages were about possibly charging extra fees if things were not done as they wanted which I understand that, but those type of things should have been in original post, not in messages after you arrive there and been there for a few days. The rocking chairs on the back porch were the highlight of the stay! I really enjoyed sitting in one in the early morning hours and spending my time with God!"

Special Rates Douglas Lake Front Cabin Retreat w/ Boat Ramp and Private Dock

8/10 Good

"Had a wonderful time staying for the week here. The house was clean and decorated very cute. The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need. We enjoyed the screened in area and porch areas. Thankfully there is a shared boat ramp at this house because the the stairs and dock are very dangerous and steep and was not able to use them the entire time to go swimming. There is no ladder to get back on the dock and without hand rails we did not feel safe. Also no washer and dryer which isn't listed in the description but is kinda a bummer for a lake home where you have towels and wet swim suits. Overall though the home is very nice and would recommend it just a few small upgrades would make a huge difference in experience."

LAKEFRONT Lakehouse with Boat Ramp and Private Dock

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay. House was clean and cozy. Driveway was difficult if you have a large boat or pontoon. We had to drive to boat access to launch boat. Lights outside need replaced so no lighting at dock. View was beautiful and private. Would stay there again."

Voted Best Family Stay in the Smokys 2023-2025 private pool, 55” tvs

10/10 Excellent

"The house was amazing and had everything we needed and wanted for our annual family reunion! We were a group of 19 and we had more than enough room! The game room and pool were big hits with our family. We also liked how close it was for us to travel into Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge and go to activities there."

⛰️Views! Pool&hot tub! Firepit area! 20 mins to DWood, fenced yard! Pets welcome!

10/10 Excellent

"The property is exactly as described. It was the perfect family vacation."

Douglas Lake Front with Private Dock, Private Pavilion, hot tub, and fire pit!!

10/10 Excellent

"House and view was amazing! Everything worked as it should. House was clean. The only thing that bothered us was that the grass hadn’t been mowed and was about shin high. Otherwise definitely enjoyed ourselves."
