Comfortable, clean and well stocked cabin

This was the perfect stay for our family with young children. We were looking for something very close to everything and without a scary drive up a mountain. The cabin had so much to do, beautiful views and was the perfect spot for our family’s spring break.

Beautiful cabin!

This cabin was so warm and welcoming - the perfect size for my husband, me and our two kids. We swam at the pool every day, played pool/checkers, saw so many things in Pigeon Forge. We even saw bears! The view was spectacular and the cabin was so clean and well-stocked

Great location and views

Very nice cabin with great views of the Smokies from both levels and easy access to everything. Well stocked kitchen and nice sized dining table. We very much enjoyed the game room and hot tub. This has been our overall favorite place we’ve rented in the Gatlinburg area. Communication was great. Thanks for an awesome week away.

Gorgeous Cabin in great location

The Morning Star was the perfect spot! We were close enough to take quick Uber rides downtown and still were far enough away from the craziness to enjoy peaceful, scenic views. The place was impeccably clean and so spacious. We loved it! David was helpful and responded to us right away when we reached out.

Overall everything was good… I have only one complaint that is there were spider webs on deck, front porch and balcony (very thick)… need to be swept.

This was our first time staying at this cabin, but hopefully not our last! Everything was perfect! It was very clean with plenty of supplies. The view from both balconies was just amazing! The cabin was definitely big enough for our group of five adults. I would really love to return to this cabin again, hopefully soon! Thank you so much!

Beautiful Cabin!

We come to Gatlinburg almost every year. We have loved Gatlinburg Falls for many of those trips! This cabin was clean, beautiful, and had such a pretty view! We even got to see two bears on my daughter’s Birthday! That is all she wanted lol. The kitchen was well stocked and even had a waffle maker! Also a plus for our birthday girl! It was the perfect stay, and we wish we could have stayed longer! Would definitely stay here again.

Spectacular view!

I can’t even say how rejuvenating it was to watch the sun rise while drinking coffee on the deck every morning. So many extras! Pool table hot tub Netflix games. So clean and tastefully decorated. We hated to leave. Also very good location. Close to the hubbub but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful.

Amazing cabin, amazing views!

We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful cabin! The cabin was very clean, had everything we needed and we loved all the bear decorations. The hot tub was a great feature for us as well. This cabin is close to shops, restaurants and stores. The views were stunning from both decks and we even had 4 bears walk right behind the cabin that we watched from the deck! There was an issue with the water heater the day before we were supposed to leave and unfortunately David wasn’t able to get anyone there to look at it. We did leave that day but David gave us a refund for the last night that we couldn’t stay. Things happen and we would not let that stop us from staying here again!! Can’t wait to come back!

Great Experience

We had a great time staying here. David was very good to work with from booking through our stay. The description matches what is on site. Very easy access to property and it is conveniently located near all attractions in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. My only very minor complaint is the dirty appearance at the front entrance area and some dust accumulation. Porch needed swept, along with some cobwebs. Also many areas inside the cabin needed dusted. Other than that, it’s a very clean, well managed property. I recommend staying here, you won’t be disappointed!

Fabulous cabin with amazing mountain views!

This cabin was better than we even expected. Our first impression was how spacious it was (much more than it appears in the pictures), followed quickly by how clean it was. Everything felt freshly cleaned, and very comfortable and homey. Our kids loved all the games (the old school arcade game was a huge hit), and the views from both decks were beautiful. Nearly unobstructed views of the mountains from the comfy rocking chairs on the decks. It had all the necessary kitchen items, nice towels, lots of extra blankets, beds were comfortable - it really felt like a home away from home. We could’ve spent an entire day or two happily just hanging out at the cabin. David was very responsive and kind with any questions we had. We would highly recommend this property!!
