Worth every penny
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and had a great time! The property was beautiful and there isn’t a thing we would change about our experience. The property manager is so sweet, very easy to talk to, and even checked in on us once to make sure everything was going well during our stay. I would definitely recommend this cabin and would be interested in renting in the future.

Everything we could have asked for.
This was a surprise for my girlfriend’s birthday and I always get nervous on booking places because she is a clean freak. Not only was she blowed away about how nice this place was , she bragged to me how clean it was. It checked all the boxes for what we needed and didn’t have us wishing for anything more. It is convenient to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg . Can’t wait to book another trip back this winter!

Melton's View
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Melton's View October 10-14. We particularly enjoyed the secluded location, which was still very conveniently located to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The lovely cabin, which has a wonderful history, has a very rustic appearance, but is thoroughly modern! Janice, our host, was very cordial, and we enjoyed talking with her. We would definitely consider staying there again!

Peaceful Cabin
This was the most relaxing vacation ever! This cabin is truly secluded and peaceful with many activities only minutes away if you choose that route. We enjoyed the pure quiet and only hearing crickets during the night time! We saw a momma bear and 3 cubs from the deck on our second afternoon sitting outside. Janice is a fantastic host! Cabin is clean with all modern day amenities provided. This was our second time booking and we will be back for a 3rd time soon!

Beautiful cabin
Clean as a pin. Beautiful cabin. Pool table. Perfect distance between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Owner is very sweet and easy to communicate with. I would stay here again. Skilled motorcycle rider could handle some of the road going up there. It’s paved all the way, but I don’t think I would chance it. I drove my truck.

Updated & Secluded with Mountain View
Of the 24yrs of visiting Gatlinburg yearly ; this was by far the cleanest and most cared for cabin we have ever stayed in. Communication with the owner was prompt and she was just a call or text away if needed. The cabin has everything you need and then some. I really enjoyed the privacy of No one driving in front of your cabin like most places anymore. The history of the cabin is pretty fascinating (1800’s) The mattresses are new; not sunken in and worn out which is huge. Will stay again 😊

17th Anniversary Trip
The property and cabin were beautiful! Cabin had everything we needed. Communication with host was great as well! Close to town but just far enough away to have that relaxing atmosphere. We enjoyed the pool table and hot tub! We accidentally booked the same weekend as hot rod weekend. The towns were packed so we opted to drive the mountain roads. Just as much to do away from town as in town.
