wonderful stay - great tennessee getaway

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this rental cabin. The staff was friendly and helpful, we really had no issues at all. Nice location, and so many great amenities. The property description was completely accurate and the cabin was in great shape. We really enjoyed to hot tub, pool table, and numerous TVs in the cabin. We ate at the old mill and shopped at the outlet stores - it was such a nice, cozy getaway!

2 night stay at a desire fulfilled

Cabin was beautiful, clean, everything pictured. We wish we could have stayed longer. My 8 year old and his friend loved the hot tub and pool table. Close enough to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg that we made several trips from cabin to those places daily.
Possible downfalls:
Gps took us several different routes. The go to route was VERY difficult to navigate, up VERY steep narrow roads, many roads without guard rails. would NOT recommend staying during winter without really good 4 wheel drive :)
Wifi is great but we had NO phone service at all, at the cabin or in town. We didn't receive our "welcome call" until we had been driving 3 hours to leave the cabin.
"2-3 day supply" of toilet paper is actually just 1 roll in each bathroom. Just in case people expect more :)

Carrie B. on 12/07/2018

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, Carrie. We are happy you enjoyed your stay, however, disheartened to hear you experienced these issues. We do recommend using the directions that are emailed to each of our guests prior to arrival. GPS does not always work well in our area, and often takes our guests on the smaller mountain roads, while we keep you on the main roads as much as possible. Our recommended routes are not always the quickest routes, but will be the best route for anyone unfamiliar to our area. We are sorry to hear you did not have cell phone service during your stay. Although this varies among providers, most of our guests do get great reception throughout our main resort. The cabins are stocked with a starter supply of toilet tissue, along with other items. As described in the FAQ and email information, this is only a starter supply and will not be enough to last throughout your stay. We provide this as a courtesy to our guests, as we find that often times our guests like to find the cabin and unload prior to going to the grocery store. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced and hope you will consider staying with us again in the future.

definitely a fullfilled desire

This cabin was decorated just as the pictures were advertised. Clean, spacious all over really nice. It was easy to get to, signs were posted which made our arrival stress-free. Judy called to make sure that everything was going well which was a surprise because Ive never had anyone to actually call and check to make sure we were okay. I will definitely book with them again.

not luxurious

This home is in serious disrepair and the pictures do not represent its current state. The entire home reeked of old hot tub water, including the downstairs loveseat which could not even be used given the stench. I wish we hadn’t tried to soak away a day of hiking as the swimsuits are no longer usable given the stale water stench. The rain shower is aimed at the door and as such was not enjoyable and barely functioned as a shower. The dust and overall lack of cleanliness left is all with sinus infections. The bed clothes were stinky. The pool table felt was torn, which is a problem for me as I love billiards and had looked forward to teaching my child. The deck offered no views of anything but the trees immediately next to it. Sitting on the deck still should have been peaceful but it was not given the constant construction noise. The carpet was thread bare and torn in both bedrooms. Starving bears were seen several times in the driveway. I contacted the property managers upon arrival about the homes stench and misrepresentation and was brushed off. I contacted them again when I received the email to review them and they assured me that they would refund some of my money. They never called me back or refunded a dime. Before booking I made it clear that I needed a clean place and they lied. Very disappointing.

We appreciate your review, Luciana. There are many items in your review that we would like to address. We would like to make note there were absolutely no complaints logged during your stay with us. Keep in mind, we do offer 24/7 staff assistance, and we take each customer's complaints seriously. It would have been made a top priority to assist you had you called in during your stay to report these issues. We are here to assist our guests, and we want nothing more than each guest to feel as though they have a home away from home while in our area. Prior to each arrival the hot tubs are cleaned, sanitized and refilled. This process does involve the use of chemicals but I can attest that the smell does not linger in the cabins whatsoever. If you felt as though the cabin was dusty enough to cause illness it would have been wise to let our staff know immediately. Our housekeeping staff is top-notch and would have noticed an immense amount of dust throughout the cabin. We do have several cabins to choose from, and many of them offer spectacular mountain views, however, we are very specific both on our website and directly when describing the views for each cabin. A Desire Fulfilled is listed as having a 'wooded view'; this means you will be surrounded by trees but will not have a direct mountain view. We apologize if you assumed otherwise. The pool table felt is a minor issue, which I have reported to our maintenance staff. Please note that this does not cause the table to be out of order in any way. As for your claims of speaking to our staff upon arrival, this is simply not true. We pride ourselves on pristine customer service, and would never allow concerns such as these to slip through the cracks. I can guarantee that no member of our staff would promise compensation without first seeking approval. Your concerns were noted by a staff member on September 10th, over two weeks after your check out. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.

beautiful wall of windows and nature

We had an amazing trip. The house was in a great location. Close to everything but out of the busy strip. Wall of windows is beautiful. The hot tub and walk in shower (with great water pressure!) were bonuses. The house fit our family of 4 just right. While there was clearly nothing "wrong" with the house we did see a few areas that were beginning to look worn. The master could use some fresh bedding (it had holes) and some of the towels were stained. It would have been helpful to have a few updated kitchen pans as well. The two we mainly used were warped or food stuck to them (even with oil) and they really needed a good scrub. We did dishes each night which meant we had enough for the following day. If we hadn't we would have run out of dishes. A second set of dishtowels and scrubber brush would have been helpful too for our 6 night stay. The lower level carpet is snagging with some runs throughout. Those items aside, the house was very comfortable and nice to come back to each day. We would consider rebooking when we return to the area. Thank you for having us!!

gatlinburg family vaca

This is an absolutely beautiful home!! The SHOWER...lets talk about that shower WOW oh WOW. The cabin had everything we needed for a nice, quiet, relaxing stay. We returned home completely rejuvenated and ready to concur the world once more. The only downfall is the view. I knew there would not be a mountain view and I was ok with that but, literally when you walk out on the back deck you are greeted by a wall of trees......maybe a little bit of trimming would help....

Casey P. on 08/10/2018

Thank you for your fantastic review, Casey! It is a pleasure to hear you enjoyed your recent cabin stay. A Desire Fulfilled is certainly a great cabin to relax and escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We appreciate your feedback regarding the trees. I have reported this to the maintenance department for review. We hope you will choose to visit us again very soon. Please keep in mind, as repeat visitors you will enjoy a special discount returning.

not a luxury cabin as advertised!

The cabin was advertised as sleeping 8. We had a family of 7 and it was extremely tight. The kitchen held 7 people at the table. Other than that there was NO where for us to sit.
The upstairs had one couch that held 3 people. The downstairs had a love seat and wooden rocker-seating.
The deck had 4 wooden rocking chairs and one was broken.
There was no where for our family to sit and be together...which was the purpose of our family vacation!

Sleeping 7 people was also a challenge. We had 3 teenagers in the bunk bed room. We had 2 adult males sleeping on the sleeper sofa --they did NOT sleep well at all. The bed was uncomfortable and was extremely noisy. Every time they moved, the noise was so loud in the master bedroom below, that we did not sleep either! It sounded like someone was breaking in or scraping the floor. Horrible noises!

Curb appeal was poor- the cabin was located in a stoned cul-de-sac. Our cabin had weeds growing in the eaves near the roofline. The driveway had large ruts that made our car bottom out even when driving extremely slow.

Luxury cabin--NOT! The carpet in the master bedroom was all ripped and torn. The bedspread in the master bedroom was ripped. There was nowhere to set our luggage/suitcases. (Unless we piled them up in closet) The teeny tiny dresser did not hold much! In addition to the lack of storage for our clothes, there was no where to place our toiletries! So, they sat on the floor in bags.

The blankets in the bunk bed room and ones for the pull out couch were disgusting, stained and nasty.

We found a bug (cockroach) in our bed on the 2nd night! You don’t sleep well knowing that there are bugs in your bed. The last night we were there was a snake, YES!, a snake was slithering around on the bathroom floor
Contacted Elk Springs and they were like "sorry-nothing we can do after your stay. You should have called during your visit!

Stacey K. on 08/07/2018

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, Stacey. We are sorry to hear you were disappointed in these aspects of your stay. We can understand your frustration, however, we would like to clarify a few items in your review. There is seating for 4 at the kitchen table, an additional 3 at the breakfast bar, and not to mention an additional 3 people on the sofa merely steps away from the table. If you go a few more steps then there is seating for 1 more person, which totals seating for 11 in this open area. We are not sure why you would think there would be no where for you to sit together. The layout and description of the bedrooms and sleeper sofa are listed on our website. This cabin is exactly as described. We can assure you the carpeting in the bedroom is not all ripped and torn, but rather there is a run in the carpet. We are aware of this and will be replacing the carpeting with hard wood flooring. Our cabins are professionally treated by our local pest control company. We can also assure you, there was not a cockroach in your bed. We sent our technician out and after a thorough search he was unable to find any roaches. The cabin has been treated as a precaution, as we care about the comfort of our guests. We were unaware of the snake. This is not something common, but possible with people coming in and out of the cabin often. While we understand your frustration, as outlined in our Guest Agreement, we are fully staffed and willing to take care of any issues that may arise during your stay. As our representative explained, we do not refund for issues that we were not given the opportunity to see or address. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced and hope you were able to enjoy your time spent in our area.

nice. but no view

Cabin was nice. But had no view. We enjoyed our stay. But we were disappointed with the outside of the cabin. Looked nothin like the picture on the web site. Cabin needed to be bug sprayed. Several centipedes, over 20 crawling on the floors and one on the pillow. Ice maker didn’t work. Queen comforter was on a King size bed and the bed was not comfortable. Light was burned out in the shower and over the bathroom sink.

Doug P. on 07/15/2018

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Doug. We truly value your feedback as it helps us to improve. We have reported these issues to our housekeeping supervisor as well as our maintenance team so they can be addressed. Please do not hesitate to contact us during your stay if you should find any item in the cabin is not up to par. We are always happy to send out one of our experienced technicians to correct any issue that arises. We can assure you, our guests are our number one priority. We certainly understand that these items were an inconvenience and sincerely apologize. We hope you will consider staying with us again during your next visit to Gatlinburg.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Fiona. We are happy you enjoyed your stay, however, disheartened to hear you experienced this issue. Each of our cabins are professionally treated by our local pest control company. Your comfort is our primary goal. Even with the best efforts, insects can sneak in. With most of our cabins being in wooded areas these are usually wood roaches, not cockroaches. We will share your feedback with our technician to ensure the cabin is pest-free. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience experienced and hope you will consider staying with us again in the future.

short getaway in "a desire fulfilled"

My wife and I stayed in A Desire Fulfilled for two nights, and it wasn't long enough! We loved the semi-secluded location, and the cabin was wonderful. There were a couple very minor issues (icemaker not working and some brush growing up over the back deck) but it did not bother us during our stay. We loved the rainfall shower! We have stayed at Elk Springs Resort twice before and will plan on returning the next time we can get away!

Stay was great. We would have liked more information on the location of the cabin before booking. Cabin was also not as clean as expected, there were dirty dishes in the cupboard and seasinal bugs in a bedroom which should have been taken care of by the cleaning crew. Maintenance addressed the issue within an hour. Otherwise a fantastic experience.

could be better...

The Cabin is great, the design is beautiful but the furniture is in very bad conditions, the coach in the lower level seems to be the coach from a mechanics body repair shop, dirty and old, also the mattress and pillows are expired. It deserves an update in furniture...

all other points as location and cleanness were good.

unexpected surprise

After having a scheduled vacation the week of the fires in 2016 and having to cancel the trip, we selected (thru a very easy process by Elk Springs) new dates for travel. Due to winter weather, we could not get to Gatlinburg for the first night of our rental. On our 6 hour drive we were contacted telling us our cabin was not accessible due to icy mountain road so they put us in a new one. It was a lovely nice cabin for a two night stay. It was well equipped and clean. The only draw backs were there was no restroom on the ground -entry floor and the second bedroom was queen bunk beds...they were pretty cool but not for my 75/80 year old parents who had planned to join us. * since this was a substitute, I'm sure Elk Springs would have found something suitable if we requested it. They were certainly customer service oriented. * need to replace wobbly bars in kitchen and put more gravel at entry as with the snow melt it was pretty muddy and we didn't want to track it in the lovely cabin!

Tammy P. on 01/23/2018

Thank you for your kind review, Tammy. We are very sorry to hear that you were inconvenienced by the unfortunate weather we experienced. I can assure you that customer satisfaction is our number one priority and we want nothing more than each of our guests to create a home away from home while visiting the area. We appreciate you bringing the wobbly bar to our attention. I have reported this to our maintenance team and it will be addressed. We do understand that with all the snow and precipitation we are in need of more gravel in some areas. We will be taking care of this in a timely manner. It is our hope that you will join us again during your next trip to The Great Smoky Mountains. Please keep in mind, as repeat visitors you will enjoy 10% off all future bookings.

Nell O. on 04/03/2018

Thank you for your honest review, Nell. We certainly appreciate your feedback as it helps to ensure we are constantly improving. In the mountain area, especially in the spring and summer time, it is almost impossible to completely eradicate insects. We do have our cabins treated monthly and our housekeepers make an attempt to sweep away any dead bugs during each cleaning, but we certainly apologize for any that were left behind. I have forwarded your suggestion to provide filters and sponges to our housekeeping department for review. In an attempt to avoid confusion, we do send out an email prior to arrival noting to our guests what is provided in their cabin and what is not. We are very sorry if you assumed these items were provided. We are delighted that you enjoyed the cabin and we do hope you will allow us another opportunity to show you a true 5-star experience.

disappointed

We were very excited with our selection after looking at pictures online but after arriving to this cabin it was darker and more secluded than we thought. The worst part was finding termites in our daughter's bedroom at this cabin. Our first day there we saw some dead ones in the window and didn't think too much about it, however, the next day when we got back toward evening, the window was full of them again, even live ones and some were in the bed. We called to complain and they offered to spray, but we didn't want our daughter to sleep in there after they just sprayed and they would not refund our money. We asked for a manger to contact us and we have yet to hear from anyone. They did move us to another cabin which helped but it was very inconvenient trying to pack up and move all of our stuff at 10:30 at night. The cabin could have been cleaner too. The floors were sticky and the bedspreads looked very old and had holes in it.

None Given on 03/24/2018

Thank you for your honest review, Nicholas. We certainly appreciate your feedback in regards to your recent visit. We certainly apologize for the inconveniences you faced during your time with us. I can assure you this is not indicative of a usual stay with us. Customer satisfaction is very important to us and we are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with this cabin. We did have pest control confirm the critters were flying ants and they have been taken care of. In the mountain area, and especially in log cabin homes, flying ants and other critters are a real possibility. We do have our cabins treated monthly, but this does not always eradicate the issue. We do however, have 24/7 staff assistance to address any issue that might arise during your stay. We did offer to spray the room with a nontoxic spray but we can understand if you did not want your child around this spray. Therefore, our staff did accommodate you in another comparable unit. It does appear that our manager reached out to you on 3/22 to further discuss his matter, however she was forced to leave a voice message. Please know it was not our intention to disappoint you. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts with us.

I was very impressed with the property management such as receiving texts about traffic, directions, check in, etc. The cabin was listed as sleeping 8; however, the sleeper sofa springs literally were protruding from the bed which made it uncomfortable leaving 2 guests sleeping on the living room floor. One of the rocking chairs outside was broken when we got there and didn't realize until we sat in it, and when covering up with a blanket which was folded in the closet my aunt noticed small black hairs. Otherwise our stay was enjoyed.

incredible cabin and experience!

Our experience at A Desire Fulfilled cabin was amazing. It was just my wife and I, but we very easily could’ve had 2-4 more people there without any problem at all. The pool table and foosball table were fun and we used them both nights of or stay. Same for the outdoor hot tub. You could tell it was nice a clean and had a privacy fence surrounding it. The 18ft rainfall shower was sooooo nice. We definitely need one of those in our next house lol. The cabin also had a small grill, full kitchen, and most anything you could need. Everything you should need is there! The cabin is about 20 minutes or so from Gatlinburg and Pigeon forge, which was perfect. We wish we could’ve stayed longer and will definitely be back soon!

We enjoyed our cabin and visit to Elks Springs. It was beautiful, secluded and nicely appointed. My only bit of advice for families with young children would be that bedrooms are located on bottom floor and you can literally hear every step above you when your kids awake before you and run upstairs, the rocking chair is especially torturous.
It was all worth it, as we really had a lovely time and would come again- when our children are a bit older, that is. :)

We loved our first cabin. It was awesome. Perfect and the pictures did it justice. Our reservation was unfortunately mixed up...Always check your dates and we were switched to another cabin on the last night which was not nice at all. Not in the caliber of this one. The alarm would not stop going off, we had maintenance down twice. It really made a downer on our last night. Magic Moments is no where in the caliber of this one. I would avoid it at all costs.

Carmen P. on 04/23/2015

We are very sorry that there was a misunderstanding about the number of nights you were staying. We did our best to accommodate you with a move to a similar sized cabin that would accommodate the number of guests you had. We understand that you didn't like this cabin as much as the one that you personally selected, but it was all we had available at the time. Some of our cabins are more elite than others.

We stayed for a week, we were very impressed overall with the cabin. Follow recommended guidelines as far as what to bring for longer stays. Would definitely return again!!

Thank you Candice. We send out several emails prior to your arrival advising you of what is provided and it is important to follow these guidelines like you stated. However, our resort property is located just a short driving distance to several of the local stores in the event you need to go out for any last-minute purchases.

no mountain view

First off DO NOT book this cabin if it's two families. You WILL be very crowded. Second, the tv' weren't working properly in one of the bedrooms. Third, the pictures are very misleading. It's like a cabin that was cut in half vertically. The pictures make it appear much larger. Last, when we called to complain the first day there a supervisor was supposed to get back with us and never did. Also, this may of been our misunderstanding but there is no mountain view u less you go tomthentop of the road. The only view in
The back is woods. We were pretty disappointed. The other staff that did call was very kind and maintenance was there very quick. It is a beautiful cabin
Will allot of luxuries for a couple or one family. It's just very misleading, photograph angels do wonders.

None Given on 08/03/2015

Hello Kim, I am very sorry that you were not happy with your stay. All of our customer service staff is highly trained in dealing with guest issues. You did speak with a supervisor by phone to ask for maintenance to come over to show you how to light your gas grill and to pound a nail in on the steps for you. You never mentioned once in our conversation that you were unhappy. Also, our website pictures and description of this cabin do not imply or indicate a mountain view from this cabin, so I am very sorry that you expected that. We have many luxury cabins in the Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville areas that do offer mountain views, but this is not standard with every cabin.

Our family had a really great time. We loved that the code to get into the cabin was simply given to you by phone the day of check in, so no waiting, and the staff called the next day make sure we were happy with everything. The cabin was very clean and equipped with everything we needed to enjoy all our meals. The beds were super comfortable, and the shower was amazing!! Our kids loved the game tables and we all enjoyed sitting in the hot tub. Checking out was also very easy and quick. Would definitely stay here again!!

beautiful cabin in a perfect location!

Our trip to the Great Smoky Mountains could not have been more perfect! From the weather to the many different activities for both the kids and the adults, we never ran out of things to do! The best part of the vacation, by far, was the time we spent reconnecting as a family in our beautiful cabin! It was the perfect size for our family, was clean and tastefully decorated. We had everything we needed! The kitchen was stocked with dishes, serving pieces, and even plastic ware for storing leftovers. The hot tub was clean, private, and in a perfect location on the deck. We loved everything about our cabin experience!

heaven in the smokies

The property was even better than the pictures! It was beautiful and we had the option of being cozy or having our own space to relax. The cabin had a perfect privacy screen around the hot tub making us feel secluded and added to the romantic ambiance. The property was clean and while some areas could use an update (carpet in the master bedroom), overall, it was a beautiful property. During our stay it snowed almost a foot and the team at Elk Springs came by and shoveled the walkway, salted it and even shoveled around our vehicle. It was above and beyond our expectations of customer service. The check in was easy, we were able to go straight to the cabin and were texted our entry code. We would definitely recommend this property, and the resort to anyone looking for a place to stay in the Gatlinburg area.

Couple of area notes: make the the trip to Cades Cove. It is nearby and worth the trip. We went and the road was shut down to cars (this is more common until March), so we walked a bit of it and it was like being in another world. We stopped at The Ship the first night since it was near the cabin and we wanted to grab some appetizers and something to sip. It was a very cute bar and the food was really very good. We were so enchanted that we even bought a t-shirt to commemorate our visit. We also visited the Smokey Mountain Brewery and did some shopping, although some shops were closed due to the season. All in all I would say we had an amazing time and would recommend the trip to friends and family.

Jacquelyn H. on 01/27/2016

Thank you for your wonderful review! Thank you for bringing the master bedroom carpet to our attention. We are happy you enjoyed the cabin, as well as quite a few of our local attractions. If you are in the area during warmer weather, please return to Cades Cove. It is always worth the trip. We see bears and a lot of the local wildlife there often while visiting. We hope that you will consider choosing us for your next vacation as well.

very pleasurable stay

Was a great, clean cabin with lots of space and in a great area. Pool/Foosball tables were in great shape, beds were nice. Only complaint would be the heating is not equalized (upstairs vs. downstairs). For example, bottom floor is comfortable, top floor is too hot, etc. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Don E. on 02/12/2016

Thank you for your kind review, Don. We recommend keeping the ceiling fans going throughout your stay to keep the air circulating. Sometimes, it is necessary to close a vent or two off in the upper level to make the temperature more tolerable. For future reference, Customer Service is available to troubleshoot any issues you may have over the phone. If they aren't able to assist you, they will dispatch a maintenance tech to personally come to the cabin within 30 minutes to fix the problem for you. We hope you will consider a future stay with us.

a desire fullfilled-not really

We got this cabin for a reasonable price from groupon. The cabin is two stories and for such a small space, it is laid out very well. Upon inspection, as I do anywhere that I stay, I pulled back the sheets on the master bed and found 3 hairs at the foot of the bed, on the fitted sheet. (I believe it was just an oversight from laundry.) I immediately pull the sheets to wash them and notice that the mattress cover had several hairs on it too.
The rain tower shower was really cool, but it had 2 bulbs that didn't work and so it was really really dark. I finally decided to call Elk Springs and complain when I walked in the shower and found a Bobby pin laying on the floor of the shower!
The kids went to try out the hot tub, and when we uncovered it, we noticed the it was dirty, but the filter had came off and was laying in the bottom of the hot tub. I called Elk Springs Resort and they sent 2 separate people out to take care of my issues. Along, with one follow up call to ensure the maintenance guy resolved my issue. So I'm not sure if it was just bad luck on my part, but I just wasn't overall satisfied.
I'm not sure if I offended housekeeping, but when they came and were making the bed with the new sheet, they made the comment that the hair on the fitted sheet must have fell from the ceiling fan. Lol.
The front desk was great to try and resolve my issues, so I would recommend them for customer service. But this particular cabin needs some attention. The trim and baseboards were very dusty. And the fake wood tree at the steps needs to be cleaned as well, it had clots of dust on it. I hate to give such a detailed and negative review, but I wished I had known the condition beforehand and I would have chose a different cabin with better up keep.

Not at all what we expected. There is NO cell service at all, which is not on the website anywhere. It's a very little cabin, pool table room is so small you can't hardly play. It has bugs on the floor and bathtub. For the price it should have been ALOT cleaner and roomier. Pics on website very misleading.
Don't waste your money. Not worth it !!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are sorry to hear you were disappointed with your stay.

We can certainly understand your frustration with the lack of cell service and the bugs found in the cabin. The cell service varies depending on the carrier. Each of our cabins are professionally treated by our local pest control company. Even with monthly treatment, we are unable to stop all bugs from coming in. We sincerely apologize for your discomfort with these issues.

great time pretty good cabin

We love going to the smoky mountains. Found this cabin on groupon and enjoyed our stay very much. The cabin itself is nice and very well cared for. One thing I will mention is that once you arrive, the staff is hard to get in touch with. We got there and there wasn't any chalk for the pool table and no channel list for the TV. We also needed extra towels. when we finally reached someone, a man showed up with chalk only. Also, the floorboards creak something awful as well as the doors to go outside. So if you have an early riser with you and a child that you would like to sleep in so you can have morning coffee, forget about it at this cabin. Other that that, we had a perfect vacation spot.

This cabin was very nice and exactly what we were looking for... It was in a good location to the activities and attractions. The cabin was clean when we arrived except the beds were not made yet. Shortly after we arrived someone came and made them which was after 4pm..There was some wear and tear in the master bedroom with a tear in the carpet. We also had some unexpected guests every evening you could hear some kind of critters (maybe mice) in the ceiling above the master bedroom. The first two nights it kept us up which was annoying but night three we could sleep through it. There was no evidence that they were coming in the cabin so we were not panicked about it. I would recommend this cabin to friends.. We loved visiting the Forbidden Caverns, Exotic petting zoo, Ripleys Aquarium and Dollywood. You definitely have to eat at Davy Crocketts and Dixie Stampede.

We are happy you enjoyed your stay with us, Tara! We are sorry you had an unwelcome guest during your stay. In most cases, this is from squirrels that have found their way onto the roof or into the attic. The guest that checked in after your departure reported hearing an animal as well. Our maintenance technician was sent out and thoroughly inspected the cabin. He did not find any evidence of any animals being in the cabin either. Any areas that may have been used as access points were sealed off and they were not heard again. The cabin was rechecked after they checked out, we still did not find any evidence of any animals having been in the cabin. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you need our assistance during your stay. We are fully staffed and welcome the opportunity to take care of any issue that may arise. We take these matters seriously and will take any steps needed to ensure your cabin is pest free. We value your comfort and want each stay to be relaxing and carefree.

Thank you for your business and positive feedback, Garrett. We are pleased to see that you enjoyed a 5-star stay at Elk Springs Resort. Our prices are competitive with other local cabin rental agencies.

Very nice cabin! Very beautiful inside! We loved the tower rain shower! Beautiful kitchen. Loved the tall ceilings and Windows. The majority of your time would be spent inside this cabin while there as there isn't much outside the cabin. There is a small private deck out back with a hot tub that we used. Not much of a view other than a few trees. The cabin is on a cul-de-sac with other cabins around but we barely realized they were there. It was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed our stay.

great little cabin near gatlinburg

Stayed at A Desire Fulfilled for 2 nights during the Winter Storm Helena. The cabin is a perfect size for our family of 4. We had stayed here for 2 nights the year previous and the kids were very keen to come back to the same cabin.

The cabin is open and spacious and has two working fireplaces, one on each floor which quickly heat up the cabin - although the downstairs is noticeably cooler than upstairs as you would expect.

The only criticism of the cabin i would have is that the carpet is starting to look quite shabby. We really noticed the difference from the year previous. It is looking quite discolored in places and is even threadbare in places in the master bedroom. We also wondered why there are no doormats, either at the front door or balcony. It means whenever we cam in from outside there is nowhere to wipe your feet and results in walking in snow, ice and mud every time - which i am sure does not help the state of the carpets.

We really like Elk Springs Resort and i am sure we will be back - but i think we will try and check out a different cabin next time.

Kevin M. on 01/10/2017

Thank you for your feedback, Kevin. I am very sorry about the condition of the carpets. We are currently working with our owners to get these replaced. We didn't realize the doormat was missing until you stated it in your review, so I have sent a request to maintenance to get one there immediately. I agree with you that it would help to have a place to wipe your feet upon entering the cabin. We love our repeat guests and want to let you know that we have over 100 cabins to choose from both on the resort and throughout the surrounding cities of Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Sevierville. We also offer cabins with swimming pools inside that your family would surely enjoy! When you are ready to book again, we would love to assist you in selecting the perfect cabin for your next stay.

great cabin, very clean

We had a wonderful weekend staying at the cabin. My only complaint (with a STRONG recommendation to fix) is that the DVD Player shelf in the 2nd bedroom (non-master) is right at head level with too little room to walk around. My older son hit his head twice and my wife once. It's a horrible location and an inevitable hazard. Other than that, we've raved about the cabin and it's amenities and cleanliness.

paper products

Had a glorious time at this luxurious cabin which is why I couldn't understand why they use the cheapest paper products known to man!! I had a cold so I left there chapped and sore (if u know what I mean). Everything else in the cabin was so top notch (kitchen goods, furniture, decorations) that I just didn't get it. Please, spend a tad more on quality paper goods (u use less anyway since they are more absorbent!) and make this cabin stay a 10!!!

romantic weekend

It was my first experience to the mountains and I loved it. It was suppose to be just a getaway, but it felt like a honeymoon. Plenty of fishing and great restaurants. The resort was quiet and I didn't want to leave.

not the cabin i booked but was nice overall!

This was not the cabin I originally booked but after a minor problem, we were moved to this cabin. It was very nice and clean. The rain gutter was coming a loose from the cabin but wasn't a problem for us. We like seclusion, and this cabin was not secluded (like the original cabin I booked). It was in a cluster of other cabins but we didn't have a problem with that either. I would return to stay again and I would recommend this cabin to someone else! Thanks, Elk Springs, for a great vacation!

romantic weekend

Nice place overall. Hot tub too hot for my taste (104). Large bedroom and shower were very comfortable. Will stay again someday. Sadly all parks were shutdown and we could explore the mtn.

Fabulous cabin with everything you need. Very clean and comfortable. Quiet location with shops and grocery a short drive away. Our family of 4 had lots of room to relax. We spent more time in the cabin than we would have a hotel. This is definitely the way to visit the Smokies!

family time with all the bells & whistles!

Check in was wonderful--got a call on my cell phone hours before check in saying it was ready early and giving me key code. Place was convenient to National Park, downtown, and decent grocery. Kids had a ball with fooseball, pool table, and our own hot tub. Shower a fun bonus! Only negative is the fireplace in master is a fake, but you have two other beautiful gas fireplaces, so it wasn't missed. Elksprings pricier than I would usually pay, but for all the extras, it was kind of worth it! Enjoyed living in my dream cabin for 4 nights very much!

beautiful cabin

The cabin was beautiful and everything was clean. Two minor negatives, it was a little hard to find and the handle fell off the microwave. Neither of this had an effect on our trip. The bunk beds were large. The shower in the master was the best shower I've ever seen. The cabin, in general, was impeccable and a cabin I would gladly rent again.

5's all the way around we were very please. If there was a down side it would have only been the guest room. With the queen size bunk beds there is barely room in there to get dressed. But since we did not have any other guest it did not affect us in any way.

beautiful cabin, needs some small adjustments

Not the fault of anyone, but there were termites in the bunk bed bedroom window area. Luckily we did not have guests, reported the problem and exterminator did a temp. job, however termites back before we left.I am sure that matter will be taken care of. We also found that there were no place mats or hot pads even though the table had a warning sign on it about marring the finish on the table, yet no protection except for a metal trivet that I found useless. Could have used some juice glasses,more ample dresser space for clothes, only 1 very small dresser in main bedroom.We stayed 6 nights. All of these can be improved very easily. We have stayed at Elk Springs resort 3 or 4 times and have always been completely satisfied with our cabins, the staff great. Again this is a beautiful cabin with many very nice amenities,but it needs some finishing touches for comfort, some books ,games and movies would also be a nice addition.We would not stay in this particular cabin again, but would choose another Elk Springs Cabin.

excellent once again.

From reservation to check-out, the experience was simple and quick. We were called at noon for a 3:00 pm check-in, providing us with our lock code and informing us the cabin was ready for us to occupy. Check out was simple, I told the cleaning crew who was at another cabin that we were leaving and they handled it.

Cabin was exactly as presented. The bed in the master bedroom is very good, much better than is usually the case for a rental. The shower is incredible.

Both bedrooms are downstairs, so if someone has difficulty with steps, this might not be a good layout for them. The TV in the master bedroom is small, but we never turned on any of the 3 sets anyway. Hottub was ready for our use.

Elk Springs will certainly be our first contact the next time we are in the area.

room for improvements

We visited for 4 nights for a family vacation. Disappointing view...was hoping for a mountain view. Did not like being on the gravel road. Rain Shower smelled musty, beds were getting worn out and bedding was poor quality/comfort. Sink in master did not drain well and their was no counter space in master for getting ready such as cosmetics. Kitchen was nice well equipped and the hot tub and foosball table an pool table were a plus.

fun vacation

We stayed at A Desire Fulfilled for a family of 4. It was a good size, the pictures make the cabin look larger. The rain shower is amazing and everything was clean and in good condition. View was just of trees but nice. Located next to a cabin next door and one across the way, but had a privacy screen for the hot tub. Tricky to navigate the windy roads but fun after you get used to it. Convenient location as we spent a lot of time in the Smoky Mtns, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Lots of driving, about half and hour to an hour to most places. Did not spend a lot of time in the cabin but it was nice to come back to soak in the hot tub at night and have privacy and all the amenities needed to relax and unwind after a long day of play.

fantastic cabin in the woods.

Beautiful place, great vacation rental.
I think it would deserve a newer hot tub. It's on a resort so expect to have other cabins around. For this one there is only one really near to it's right where they even had to block the view with some wood panels or they would be looking at you when you are using the hot tub.
The only cons is that there is no view from the cabin (Desire Fulfilled)

nice place, but the location did not work for us

The cabin was very clean and the management company and staff are excellent and very friendly. Our air conditioning went out and it was repaired within hours. The location was not right for us because we planned on hiking everyday and we felt we spent too much time driving back and forth so it is not very convenient if you want to take a break back at the cabin in the middle of the day. It's about a 40 minute round trip from the cabin to the main entrance of the park. The cabin is very private and if you are interested in the arts and crafts area this location is perfect for you. The seating is not very good for more than two people and only one person can stretch out and I would have preferred a larger master bedroom with more natural light because the bedroom is dark. The shower is great and the kitchen is beautiful and nicely appointed. The gravel road directly to the cabin was a PITA but thankfully a good part of the road is paved. I would have rated this property spotless and the carpeted areas may be clean but they are a bit worn and stained but overall it is a nice property and we really enjoyed our stay

Our family of 6 spent a long weekend at A Desire Fulfilled and had a fantastic time. The cabin was great, just as we had hoped. It was somewhat secluded, but not too far from Downtown Gatlinburg. The whole family had a great time.

disspointing check in

I arrived to the resort at 12:15 AM following a road closed because of the snow - and a consequent detour that made my trip longer by an hour at least. I informed the front desk in the morning that we will arrive at night and was given my code. upon arrival, the code did not work. i have called front desk there was no answer. called sales - Dan said I should call front desk - there was no answer. and the massages I left were not replied. Dan called and tried to give me a diferent code - which did not work either, he tried to reach front desk. over-all it was 30 minutes that we waited outside the cabin, me being pregnant and needed to use the restroom after the long drive - which was not available to me, 2 kids uncomfortably asleep in the car. 30 min later I received a call with an entirely new code saying that although my frustration is understood the focus is for me to get in. I did not receive a call afterwards only a massage in the morning saying they heard my massage and wanted to make sure I got in. this was not at all what I expected from this high value cabin - truly dissapointing exwerience. I would not recommend it.

chance to re-connect

cabin was great,getaway not so much! got back to cabin after Christmas parade,planned on romantic evening. Started with bath in jucuzzi ,only to find what appeared to be like dead skin floating in water. that killed the plan then carbon monoxide alarm kept beeping after downstairs fireplace went off and called Sevier County Utility district at almost 4am and they said to open all doors and they were sending someone out. Kevin got there about 5am checked everything out and it was fine,just the batteries needed replacement,which he did.He said I was correct in calling because you cant take a chance with a carbon monoxide alarm and just assume it is bad batteries! Needless to sat my husband was then very upset and wanted to leave immediately! I said no it was paid for and we were staying.We finally got to sleep around 630am slept until 1pm,husband still pissed went to eat dinner at a lousy restaurant in Pigeon Forge came back packed he went back to bed alone I stayed watched movies rest of the time until 5am Sunday morning packed and was out by 6am.Needless to say we didn't connect,haha!

better than expected!

We were called early and allowed to check in. The check in process was simple and straightforward. We were pleased that the location was not downtown but close enough for a quick drive and very close to Smoky Mountain National Park. The cabin we stayed in was above and beyond our expectation. Everything was immaculate, clean, and well thought out. We LOVED the hot tub and the rain shower. WI-Fi worked well the entire time, although our phones did not get service downstairs in the cabin, only upstairs. That was fine with us as we wanted to go unplugged for a weekend! Kitchen was well stocked, bed were comfy, and everything was in tip top shape! Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

We had a great time at the cabin. We took our 17 year old child and she brought a friend. They loved the hot tub, foosball, and pool table. We enjoyed all of those and the large shower. One day we just stayed in the cabin to enjoy it and the local area. One of the best things about the cabin was its location to the town.
