Carter County : locations de vacances

Me and my family were very lucky to find this hidden gem. We visited several peripheral cities pigeon forge, Gatlinburg, smoky mountains national, biltmore to only realize that this home and its view was the most scenic and peaceful. Of take local hidden roads they lead to the most beautiful rivers and mini falls. This was the perfect escape from busy loud cities, a place to decompress immersed in nature, where your kids can break away from their phones and live the childhood they should have had. Thank you Christie and Donovan for sharing your home and giving me and my family this opportunity to explore.

Paul was so quick to respond to any questions I had. He was also very friendly and helpful. Heavens Gate, WOW, the name says it all. The cabin is so beautiful and very well decorated. When you first walk in, you're on the second floor. There's large sliding doors that lead outside to the deck that has the most amazing views of the lake. It is truly breathtaking! They have a very well equipped kitchen. It has a regular pot & a K-cup maker which came in handy. There are games, tv, great wifi and an awesome hot tub! The hot tub was hot and clean. We quickly unpacked, made a mimosa and jumped right in. That view, also amazing! The Wifi worked outside to play tunes while we soaked in the tub & amazing views. The road was scary for this FL girl, but you do get use to it. Also deer walked around the house and we saw an eagle. The beds were super cozy and there were plenty of dressers to unpack. The master shower was so nice. I can go on and on... just book it, you will not regret it!

Beautiful place & the hosts were wonderful. Would highly recommend!

The house is such a gem!! It was perfect for our family of 9 for Thanksgiving. We could have never left the house our entire trip because the main level is so cozy and comfortable. There is plenty of games and puzzles to keep everyone entertained. My son loved the little nook area with the bean bag. There is plenty of space to spread out with the 3 different living room areas. If you want a good workout - go for a walk! The house is at a higher elevation in the neighborhood, so you will have to walk down and back up. We hiked to Laurel Falls - that was another workout! Be prepared to drive a little ways to the grocery store. We brought most of our groceries but needed a few things and the next town is 25-30 minutes away. (Of course, there is always Dollar General that is closer!) Not many places to eat out. The first night we went to the Trading Post and the food was good and the people were so friendly, we stopped back in on our way out to say goodbye!

In a word, serene. it was spotless, quiet, roomy. The animals even made appearances, squirrels, deer, birds galore. the hot tub was great after long days of sight seeing and antique shopping. my only complaint was there are not enough stars to give as a rating.

WOW what a beautiful cabin in the woods! By far my favorite vacation spot! It was so private with a private back yard! The owner left the porch lights on for us as we were arriving at night. The cabin is so clean! There was not one spot of dirt in the entire place. It was so beautifully decorated. It’s perfect for a couple weekend get away. The backyard is so private and beautiful with the creek that runs through the yard. The sound of the water flowing was just so peaceful. The owner was very clear on directions and how to get in the house. He was very responsive when I had questions. We just found our new mountain vacation spot!

The cabin was beautiful, with amazing views. We went for Thanksgiving week & while there were some places that were closed around the lake due to the holiday, there was still plenty to do & enjoy. We drove into town for groceries & firewood & had a lot of fun making fires in the fire pit. The kids went kayaking & fishing at a few spots on the peninsula. They caught a few fish. We went hiking nearby & also rode ATV’s at Roan Mountain. We took our two dogs & they had a great time exploring the property & taking long walks with us. The weather was great, we even got some snow flurries! I was able to make an entire Thanksgiving meal in the kitchen. The beds were comfy & the bathrooms were clean. The cabin is spacious enough where we could all hang out together or retreat to our own spaces. Jenelle was great, too. We communicated during our stay, she was attentive ans responsive. We are so happy for the memories we made at the cabin & hope to make it back soon.

We arrived much later than we had anticipated and Carl and his son were there to greet us. Carl showed us around the house and explained how to use the lights and appliances. He also had the refrigerator stocked with breakfast cereals, milk, bread, coffee, etc… Our dogs loved roaming the outdoors.

Had two of are six people come stay for one night, and loved it and may plan on booking a trip next year.
