Beautiful cabin. Inside was immaculate. Really enjoyed the hot tub, LP fireplace, and view. The only improvement would be to clean the large windows above the deck. Definitely will be back.

Beautiful cabin. Really enjoyed the hot tub, LP fireplace, and view. Inside of cabin was clean and well organized. Large windows at rear of cabin need to be cleaned. Will definitely be back.
I contacted the cabin manager when we got there to let her know there was an issue with the fireplace. She let me know she would contact someone to try and get it fixed. It was never fixed. We stayed Saturday-Tuesday for our honeymoon and wasn't even able to use the fireplace. It was letting out black smoke and setting the fire alarm off. It was so bad I was blowing black soot out of nose the first night when we tried. Not a romantic get away like we wanted. Other than that the cabin was ok, decently cleaned. Location was quite except for occasional gun shots and dogs barking.

Easy to reserve. Clean one room cabin with hot tub. Hot tub was clean. Nice that there was charcoal and lighter fluid for the grill.

Our visit to Townsend and the Great Smokie Mountains National Park was fantastic.
That being said, the only positive comment about our cabin is the title of this review. The suet was black and on the walls, floors at each vent in the cabin. Up the walls and on the floors and carpet. My white footies was black. It was on my skin and I am sure in my hair. When we blow our noses, it was in our discharge.
One dish cloth and towel for a week. Soap was quarter size. Try to shower with that! Light in the shower was motion sensor and did not stay on while showering. No trash bags other then what was in the trash containers. Started to stink and we couldn't change them out. Dishes were minimal.
A couple of other positives. Stove and refrigerator were clean. Ice maker worked very well. Pots and pans were clean. Silverware was nice. Coffeemaker and microwave functioned properly.
Extremely poor maintain on this property. Will not make use of Evolve Rentals again.
