Definitely recommend driving in during the day rather than night so you get a better idea of the winding roads. Was impressed with how nice the pots and pans were for cooking. I've stayed in cabins before where the cookware was awful. Was a little sad the jacuzzi tub was out of order but I just enjoyed the hot tub. Loved sitting on the front and back porch and just relaxing. The layout and openness of the Floorplan is perfect.

I absolutely loved it here !! Living in a large metro area and then coming here for relaxing vacation was amazing. It is a very quiet to stay. I loved sitting in the hot tub at the end of the day and having a beer. It rained several days which made it that much better to just sit around and relax i would definitely book it again.

The cabin was beautiful and perfect for our family of 4 including two kids, 3 and 5. The location was perfectly secluded but an easy drive into Pigeon Forge or even Gatlinburg wasn’t too far. The hot tub on the back deck was very relaxing to take in all the fall colors. Comfortable beds and furniture and the entire cabin was very clean. Loved having the washer and dryer so we could do laundry throughout the week and even before we went home to take clean clothes home for easy unpacking. Definitely recommend!

Such a amazing cabin in the woods. It’s hard to tell when looking at pictures of other cabins online if you will truly be surrounded by trees and not have a neighbor right next to you. Well this place didn’t disappoint. We loved sitting in the hot tub with all the nature around. We left the blinds open the whole time, because no houses were close enough to see in. The kids loved the loft area. This was definitely the true cabin experience we were looking for, but I didn’t have to rough it at all. I am definitely a snob when it comes to staying places. It was perfect!

The cabin was very nice and clean. The hot tub was ready and waiting for us when we arrived. The cabin looked just like the pics online except they upgraded some of the appliances which was very nice!! Had no issues finding the place and security at the gate was helpful. The only issue with the cabin was the water smell but was told it’s well water and there wasn’t anything that could be done about it unfortunately. We used the daily attractions feature to ride the mountain coasters and visited the small theme park in town. Overall, the cabin was very nice, clean, and exactly what I expected. Will stay again and highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay in The Wild Life cabin. The Bear Tracts hosts communicated very well and we had all the information we needed prior to and during our stay. We had one minor maintenance related issue, but it was taken care of same day. We were able to use all the amenities provided in the cabin and enjoyed cooking meals in the cabin as well as bringing back some local fare (Apple Barn to go and Boss Hogs BBQ). We took advantage of a few of the free ticket offers and that process was smooth. We loved the Big Creek expedition rafting trip! The cabin location is nice and provided good seclusion. We did see a black bear the first night, so please be careful and secure all your food and trash. Take care and protect the bears by being responsible!!!

The cabin we stayed in on our vacation was very nice. It made being away from home not feel so bad because we felt like we were at home. Everything was clean and there were so many things available for us to use that we didn't need to go out much. The only complaint I have and it's not really a complaint is that the water had a foul smell to it when bathing...hopefully that will be fixed the next time we visit but if not it won't turn us away.

We enjoyed our vacation very much n felt right at home. Everything was as described; April & Matt were very responsive. The guards were very friendly n helpful. The routes we found were very scenic n beautiful (drive carefully). We did notice a very strong sulfur odor coming from the water at bedtime n our 4yr old asked why his bath smelt like eggs; maybe the filters in the water filtration system need replacing...

Our family had a great time visiting The Wild Life. The cabin is close to local attractions, but far enough to feel secluded. The cabin amenities were as described, kitchen was well stocked, ample towels provided, and the OM-site washer & dryer was great to have. Everyone loved the hot tub. The outdoor grill was great. We also took advantage of the free attraction tickets & saved some $$. Would recommend to family & friends.

We got a late start so we had to arrive in the dark. Make sure to have all your information before arriving- Directions and Lock/ Wifi Codes. Upon arrival we were pleased to find the hot tub already warm. We were even more impressed by waking up to an astonishing Array of fall foliage. We also took a morning drive up Sugar Maple Loop and discovered the best Colors we have have seen. This is a must do for Nature Lovers. Matt and April are very easy to work with and do Answer the phone. Don't hesitate to stay here !

Totally recommend ! So beautiful!!

We had a couple hiccups on our way there causing arrival to be much later than expected. April was very helpful and understanding, even assisted in finding a place to park our boat unexpectedly. Definitely re commend staying with them.

Professional processes for reservations and communications. Enjoyed a secure, remote, and relaxing well-furnished cabin, about 30 minutes from Sevierville, TN. Daily drives to activities were time-consuming on narrow, twisting roads. No bears sighted in July 2020 while friends saw them by Gatlinburg, TN.

This cabin is the perfect mountain getaway place. It was exactly as in the pictures, very clean, with lots of windows. There were some stormy nights and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting by the fireplace and the sound of the rain on a metal roof. The hot tub was perfect on the cool nights. Private and quiet, felt like you were in the middle of nowhere, yet close to all the attractions. It was just what our family needed. Matt and April were so responsive and friendly every time I emailed or texted them. Highly recommend staying here.

We had a peaceful stay in the cabin. There were 5 of us. The hot tub was relaxing and used often by everyone. The wood smell when you walked in the door was amazing and fireplace was a favorite. We slept well in the beds, pillows were nice, and spacious rooms. The love seat had a tough time closing and the dryer ruined 2 loads of laundry. Hopefully, they will replace the appliance before another guest. The management company made it right.

This rental is clean and quiet and out of view of the neighbors. It’s a windy way past the gates/guard house up the mountains to this cabin. A few things could use updating like the tub in the master and the dryer that leaves holes in your clothes. The property manager is attentive and helpful.
