The View - Gatlinburg Cabin

Great time with family!

Excellent

Every person I talked to was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. The cabin was GORGEOUS! The people we were with all wanted to stay an extra night!!

The canBin was nice but the kitchen was not well stocked with kitchen supplies. The master bath upstairs shower door was mildewed and we found a but crawling on the bed. The name 'The View' is misleading. The term should refer to a view of the mountains not the landscape of trees behind the cabin. The gas grill also took a while to heat/turn on which delayed cooking.

Staying at THE VIEW made it all the more difficult to end a truly wonderful vacation. It was a beautiful place to stay at while we were in Gatlinburg. And the VIEW at THE VIEW is spectacular everyday!

We have stayed at other cabins before in the area and so far Elk Springs has been the easist to deal with and the cleanest. I was hoping for a better view but it was still nice. The movie room was great and was enjoyed by all. They provided plenty of towels, handsoap, and dishwashing detergent which was nice bc other places I've stayed have not done that. The furnishings were up-to-date with flat screens in every room. The gas fireplace heated the upstairs really fast so be aware of that. the upstairs was 85 degrees when we got there. I had one issue with the sheets, I couldnt tell if they had been washed or not bc I found some hair and they didnt smell clean and were wrinkled so I washed them myself just to be sure. A great cabin and would stay again anytime.

The stay started off rough with a call from the resort stating the guests in our rental didn’t leave yet and we would have to be transferred to another cabin without any compensation. The staff acted like it was “no big deal”. The cabin we moved into (smaller) was the one directly next to the cabin we originally rented which made it awkward seeing the occupants. The next day we departed early for a long day of hiking. After a brief trip back to the car I noticed I had a voice mail from elk’s springs. The voice mail stated that they needed us to move back into our original cabin because our new cabin was rented by a different family. At no time did they say we would have to move back into the cabin we originally rented.What really troubled us was the resort though we should put our plans (vacation) on hold until they decided which cabin we should be in or come off the mountain get into the car and drive back to the resort pack up and move over and unpack again (with no compensation). Needless to say, we were having none of it and stayed in the alternative cabin which again made it awkward seeing the neighbors because they were put into our original cabin. All that being said the cabin was great and our vacation was one for our family’s best, despite the above!

Great place

The Fontana, where we were when we arrived was very clean just didnt have everything we were promised. The View, took forever to get checked in, the cabin was not totally clean. dirty cleaning rags left in cabin, upstairs bathroom dirty, heart shaped tub dirty, fireplace didnt work until our last night, hot tub had broken piece left outside of it on rails, could have been a perfect cabin and vacation if everything had been clean and as promised! OUTSIDE PROPERTY condition was 5 STARS!!

We stayed at The View with 3 adults and 3 children comfortably. The kids loved the king size bunk beds. The movie room was a hit. The beds in the master bedroom were nice and comfy. The hot tub was already hot when we arrived. Very clean and well maintained. We will definitely be back.
