Amazing Views Retreat - Gatlinburg Cabin

Our family gathering of 11 fit well in the Amazing Views cabin. We had ages from 1.5 yrs to 70 yrs. The kitchen provided a good space for several to gather for meal preparation, eating and clean up. Theatre room was used by all and everyone had their own space to retreat for quiet time. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Kids bunk room needed a better cleaning was our only criticism. Thanks so much for a great Smokey Mountain gathering!

We absolutely loved our stay. The cabin was everything we hoped it would be. It was wonderful sitting on the deck drinking coffee and looking into the mountains. We can't wait to return.

This was an exceptionally wonderful experience minor details could have been better but overall we had a wonderful time can't wait until next year. Minor details were cabin was cold when we arrived, the water on lower level was cold wouldn't get hot, the grill had little gas in tank we had to use the oven and griddle for our food we were grilling, like I stated before the overall expetience was wonderful this is now an annual vacation for our family. We loved everything.

Amazing views retreat is a beautifully located cabin in the middle of the Cobbly Nob village near Gatlinburg TN. Pros - * The booking process was simple and we were offered a 10% discount on the overall price by the booking agent. They were also kind enough to hold the booking for us for 48 hours before payment. The agents were knowledgeable and had ready answers to our questions. * It is beautifully located and is easily accessible from the main roads. * The cabin was built with a lot of thought and it is perfect for large families or friends travelling together. * The views from the patio are amazing indeed. You would enjoy a good chat over coffee or soup here or also enjoy the barbecue. Cons - Unfortunately, the cabin is in need of a lot of TLC. We paid over $2k for the whole cabin for a 02 nights weekend stay. I wonder if it was worth it for the following reasons. * Yes, like another reviewer stated- the towels were pretty old and were rough. * The movie theatre had 2-4 DVDs from decade old movies. * The Wi-Fi did not work most of the time. We had to restart the router a couple of times. Since, most mobile networks do not work in the cabin, it is tricky to be in touch if necessary. * The kitchen equipment was the biggest disappointment. All the cooking utensils were old and 'used'. We had to clean multiple times before using them. The utensils were randomly thrown around the kitchen drawers. * The window panes were unclean with full of smudges. Considering, our check in was delayed by an hour for cleaning - we couldn't see any cleaning done. The floors seemed dusty in various areas. * The washroom located next to the main entrance was stained. * Apart from a pool table and some sort of a video game console, there were entertainment options for young children. No books, no games. Recommendation for property management - * Change the linens, beddings, and towels to

We really enjoyed our stay at Amazing Views Retreat. My parents loved sitting outside and enjoying the views, especially during the quiet of the morning. The kids practically lived downstairs in the theater room and game room. And the kitchen is well stocked for a rental. In the common areas, there was plenty of room to spread out for a group of 14. However, the bedrooms are better suited to a party of 10, 12 maximum. Regarding location, realize that it's probably a 20 minute drive to the main entrance of the Smoky Mountains & Gatlinburg and you need to be cautious driving to the house once you turn off 321 - until you get comfortable with the roads. If we decide to vacation in this area again, we'd definitely like to return to this house. Only a half hour from the house, you can raft on the Upper Pigeon River. It's fun for all ages (8 & above) and was a highlight of our trip. We also enjoyed going on hikes & creeking in the Smoky Mountains, the alpine slide at Ober Gatlinburg, and the driving tour of Roaring Fork (we even got a glimpse of a couple bears!). The kids had fun at a mirror maze (not the Ripley's one) in Gatlinburg. I would encourage taking the route to the house that avoids going through Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg. It's much less congested and you drive right by a Walmart for last minute groceries. (There is a good sized grocery store on 321 if you arrive the other way.) If you decide to rent this beautiful house, I'm confident that you'll be impressed.

The pictures online do not do this cabin justice! It is truly AMAZING!! My family and I LOVED everything about this house! We wanted for nothing. The views were awesome, the Theater room was a huge delight! The enormous open kitchen, dining, and living area was perfect for our family get together. We have stayed in cabins before, this will be the one we choose from now on. An AMAZING VIEW RETREAT!! We loved every minute of it! Beautiful house, beautiful furnishings.

Vacation property was exactly as described on the Internet. Checki in flawless and property inquiries response very timely. Great for multigenerational families. Views outstanding! Kitchen stocked beyond belief. Entertainment options appealed to all generations. Privacy and luxury . Outstanding experience

We had a wonderful time. It was way more then we expected, the views were spectacular and the grounds were so peaceful.

My fiance (at the time) and I rented several cabins from Elk Springs for our large families to enjoy the beautiful and majestic views of the mountains as they came to celebrate our wedding! They were extremely impressed with the attention to detail, cleanliness, and most of all the views from the cabin that Elk Springs offers! Thank you Elk Springs for spoiling our families and giving them a mini vacation.

The cabin was exactly what I was expecting and provided our family the space to be together but yet have our own space. Beautifully done and breathtaking views.My only recommendation would be to provide more of the basics like toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags. Overall the cabin was immaculate, but did have to call to have a cleaning issue resolved and it was immediately. I would recommend a "spring cleaning" noticed some cobwebs and such in rafters and in windows. But with that said was extremely happy with how clean the rooms and bathrooms were. Would recommend highly to anyone.Loved It!!!! Couldn't ask for a better place to stay. Made me want to stay longer to enjoy the serenity and beauty. All rooms are beautifully decorated and were yet comfortable and inviting.If you are able to stay here, I recommend it!
