"Smokey Mountain Cabins
The clothes dryer didn’t work, even after maintenance came. The water pressure was abysmal."
Jul 02, 2025 - David B., NA, NOTAVAIL
"Make sure you’re getting what you asked for
Beautiful cabin, however, not as advertised. And worth a cockroach in the upstairs bed. Did not find Airbnb nor elk Springs to do anything about any problem that we had the dryer didn’t work correctly, the sink in the basement didn’t have cold water and the hot tub needed repair and when my bag was unintentionally left there, of course no one found it however, it was the only place that we stayed. Housekeeping apparently feels what they find is theirs."

"Lovely
It was lovely the kids and I loved the place"
Mar 24, 2025 - Sonja C., NA, NOTAVAIL
"Nice but there were a few issues
The check in was easy, upon entering the cabin it appeared clean but definitely needed some dusting and window cleaning. We all got together for Superbowl weekend and right in the middle of the game the roof started leaking water right in the middle of the kitchen and the fireplace stopped working, this was Sunday we checked in two days prior on Friday. The response was quick and the fireplace was fixed but the roof had to be seen by a contractor. There was also a cabin nearby being worked on and it was kinda loud. Towards the end of the trip I was sent a text message with a deal for another night so I reached out to customer service because although the response to our issues was prompt I still feel like something should have been done about the inconvenience. I never heard back from anyone, which I am very disappointed about because I am a return customer and I also brought future customers with me on this trip."

"Faulty amenities
Had a pretty good experience. The Jacuzzi bathtub did not work and the sauna did not work. Other than that, the cabin was pretty awesome. The pool table corner pockets were damaged. But was still able to play pool."
Jan 31, 2025 - James B., Pensacola, FL
"New Years Week Trip
It was perfect. Easy to get to cabin with the directions given. It was comfortable, the heater worked, and it was cozy.
We only cooked breakfast there but I feel they do need more bowls and cups. I think there was enough sets for 4 -5 people and we were a 4 adults and 4 children. The water pressure in the upstairs shower was low. It is also hard to get in and out of that big tub, so if someone has restrictions or is older that may be an issue. I would also recommend putting a broom and Swiffer inside so we can clean up during the week and keep the place clean. Overall, would definite rent again from here. "

"Quiet Getaway
As long as you're ok with ladybugs, it's a great place to stay."
Jan 04, 2025 - Daniel M., Chester, VA
"Overall good just not super kid friendly cabin
Just wish the theater room was easier to use. Also there was a good hand full of dust in the corners of places. Definitely washed all our dishes we used before we used them. The cabinets and drawers had crumbs in them. The water pressure is like a trickle. Not super kid friendly. Overall it was a good stay. Just a few little things. "

"Vacation
It was so family felt safe and happy... beautiful designed home"

"Wonderful Stay
We recently stayed in Summit Sanctuary, and I can’t say enough great things about our experience. The cabin was clean and there was plenty to do within to keep the kids entertained and allow the adults to relax. The kitchen was well stocked with tools we needed to feed ourselves during our stay. I was so impressed with Elk Springs communication and responsiveness about check in/out, and the ease of being able to text with questions about the property and have a prompt response. They went out of their way to make sure we had a nice time. My only regret is no booking a longer stay. We will definitely be back."

".Summit Sanctuary
Great location. Easy to get too. Great amenities. Could use better lighting in the kitchen-specifically above the sink and nightstands in upper bedroom. "

"Great location and perfect for the family!
My family of 5 stayed at Summit Sanctuary over the 4th of July holiday and really enjoyed our stay. The location was great and allowed quick and easy access to downtown Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Cades Cove Loop, the Arts and Crafts Community, etc. The cabin was as it was described, so no major surprises at all regarding expectations of what was advertised. The theatre room was great, so if that's something you're looking for, this property fits the bill. Sauna worked well, as did the hot tub. We cooked a number of our meals and the kitchen was well equipped with just about everything needed, and the grill outside was hooked up to a natural gas line so no problems running out of gas in the middle of grilling either.
Of course, not everything is 100% perfect, but you have to expect that from a property like this. Some lightbulbs were out in the kitchen and on the microwave, but the maintenance team took quick care of those which was great. The floors themselves, both inside and out on the deck, weren't fully cleaned off and we found a few different instances where broken glass pieces were found in the bedroom and out on the main deck. Luckily no major stabs, but a bit more attention to cleaning would be ideal. The grill is showing it's age and the igniter is gone, so look for a lighter in the kitchen. Water pressure is rough... the rain shower heads work more like a drizzle so expect a bit longer to rinse. The other main issue we had was the main floor shower leaking into the lower level bathroom, as well as the ceiling in the kitchen leaking when it rained. Both were reported to maintenance but unfortunately it doesn't look like they were fixed so expect to only use 2 of 3 bathrooms.
Overall though, we were pleased with the cabin for the price and the location and resort area was great! "

"Lacked cleanliness
Our cabin was not properly cleaned before we checked in. There were dirty towels in the washing machine. The countertop in the bathroom were not cleaned properly. There were dirty dishes in the cabinet. The oven is dirty. There was food in the window in the window sill. In general the cabin needed to be dusted and e a deep cleaning. Overall, the cabin could have been cleaned better. I would not recommend staying here."
Apr 27, 2023 - , Fairview Heights, IL
"Nice stay
Overall stay itself was nice. We had a few issues such as burnt out lightbulbs and some dirty areas of the house where maybe the cleaning crew was rushed or just check the necessary areas?!? Not sure. The hot tub was nice. The light did not work. We could never get the sauna to heat up. It was always just a lukewarm feel. We loved the movie room and pool table. Overall, I said we would recommend, but we would “maybe” recommend coming back and trying again but not the same cabin. We enjoyed the peacefulness, and not being right in the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge."

"Another wonderful stay!!
Elk Springs had quickly became one of our places to stay while vacationing. We have been vacationing for the last several years and have enjoyed every minute of our stay. This year unfortunately we had some small issues come up, I was able to contact the staff with no problems and the issues were were taken care quickly. Communication with the staff was outstanding and the cable guy who came out was even better. I can never say enough great things to say about Elk Springs, thank you. "

"Sensational Summit Sanctuary
Our stay at Summit Sanctuary was sensational. The game room, theater room, sauna and hot tub added to the ideal location for a Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge vacation. The three bedroom cabin allowed our group of 7 plenty of room for the boys on the bottom floor, the girls upstairs and the chaperones on the main floor. "

"Review
The cabin itself was great but the check in was awful. An hour and a half past time and nothing was done to rectify the situation. "

"Wish things were better Summit Sanctuary
We couldn’t use our hot tub the first two nights, someone came out from Knoxville and put a thermostat on it, the second day. ( we were there waiting all day) tvs weren’t working properly ( we had someone there to work on them , when we were checking out.. A dirty plate was on top of refrigerator. The dryer wasn’t heating properly. This cabin really needed to have had some maintenance before being rented out. Also on the first morning, we were awoken with major construction going on right beside us. Nothing was mentioned on this cabins page about any construction or we would have looked for a different cabin. I wish things would have been better. :("

"Family vacation
First two nights there were not enough parking spaces because the neighbors took our spots. However the management company was very responsive and contacted the neighbors to move cars. Neighbors music and parties were very loud. After first two nights it was very quiet and no issue with parking "
Oct 23, 2022 - , Smithsburg, MD
"Cozy Stay
When arriving, Google Maps sent us a way where we had to go down a one lane street, but was for both directions. That had my stomach turned, but after leaving out again, we never took that road again. We found out the cabin was in a decent location of the area!! We would stay again. Thanks "

"Summit Sanctuary Family Trip
We enjoyed our stay at Summit Sanctuary. The cabin exceeded our expectations and we had a wonderful family trip. There was plenty of room for our whole family and we especially enjoyed the hot tub, sauna, and fireplace. You will need to bring coffee filters. We were able to prepare meals in the kitchen and they had plenty of pot and pans and dishes etc. "

The customer service was incredible I called two times and right away they solved problem In rating I rate it 10. Very happy and highly recomended to family very accessible the downtown area, sightseeing amd the grocery store. Also huber eat believe it or not. "

"Relaxation at Summit Sanctuary
The pictures online accurately describe the cabin. The communication with the management company was excellent. The cabin was clean and stocked with start up supplies. Our group was happy with the cabin and would book it again. Location was easy to find, secluded enough to be enjoyable, and close enough to activities to make it easy to get back and forth to the fun things to do in Gatlinburg. We had a great time at Anakeesta, Dollywood, outlet shopping and visiting the national park."

Everything was Awesome!"
Aug 31, 2021 - Donna H., Canton, MS
"Wonderful home
Beautiful place tucked away in a community of similar large cabins. It was clean, all amenities worked, Gatlinburg was a less than 10 minute drive away. Pigeon Forge less than 15. Bedding, bath towels, and limited kitchen ware were provided but you'll want to bring things like coffee filters or DVDs if you wish to use the theater. No real complaints. Great stay and would absolutely book again!"
Aug 28, 2021 - David R., NA, NOTAVAIL
"Great place to stay
We stayed for a weekend with another family and the cabin is great. It was very clean and a great location. We had a couple issues of with the sauna and they came and fixed it right away. The grill works great and the hot tub was clean. I would bring my own pillows, the pullout sofa pillow was stained. The kitchen was well stocked for what we needed. It would have been nice if there were "resort" ammenenities like a pool or clubhouse."
Aug 10, 2021 - , Medina , TN
"Summer in the Smokies
Our family of 4 (two kids ages 19/13) & our best friends family of 4 (two kids ages 13/9) went for a 6 night stay. It was perfect! Plenty of room, the kids loved the movie room and the pool table. We have family in that area and they visited one night. It was close to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, very centrally located. The hot tub was finicky but that was our only issue. It was very private high on the hill. Overall our experience was so easy, most of the communication was done via text, they even answered a question at 11pm on night. We will use Elk Sorings again. "

"Summit Sanctuary
Great place to stay"
Jul 05, 2021 - Lesley A., Abita Springs, LA
"Spacious & Fun Hideway, Not Quite Luxury
Pros: Contactless check in, cozy and had a nice woodsy smell. The space was great for 9 people. The kids really enjoyed the theater room, although they only sat in back row because front row seats were uncomfortable. They also played pool every day. The hot tub was clean and functional. We appreciated that management was very responsive to any issues. Washer & dryer were very useful after long day of hiking in the rain. Biggest con was cleanliness - the bed linens were not all clean, the table was dirty (When wiped, the cloth was black), floors were not all vacuumed (we could see debris). There was mold around the rim of the whirlpool bathtub. Leftover food left in the cabinets. Couches were a little old. We were overall satisfied with our stay, but because of these little oversights, would probably look for a more spotless and newer cabin next time."

"Just what we needed!
We have not been on a family vacation in a few years so this was just perfect. It was a little more than what I wanted to pay but I planned last minute and was glad we found this cabin. It was centrally located for the activities we had planned & was a perfect place to hand out between excursions! My only wish is that we could have had 1 or 2 more days!"
Jun 19, 2021 - , Dixon, IL
"June 10th
Overall, very nice. Cabin could use some updating. Also would suggest grab bars for the showers. Was a big step for us older folks! Loved the rocking chairs on the porch. Very relaxing."

It was wonderful "
Jun 03, 2021 - Lori K., Nashville, TN
"Not what we expected
The living room furniture worn-out didn't want to sit on it. The main level bathroom had a mildew smell. Curtains on the main level were shear didn't like that at all. Bathroom didn't have the basic toiletry items. The owners need to care more about their property. This cabin is by far the worse one we have ever stayed. Definitely not recommended wouldn't stay here again. "

"Summit Sanctuary winter getaway
Nothing but good things to say. Easy booking/check-in/check-out. Our cabin featured everything as promised. The hot tub and theater room were the stars of our winter getaway. Very easy to relax and unplug, or hit the town - plenty of winter activities and trails to hike, even in the off season. Looking forward to returning!"

"Great vacation rental
This is a great vacation cabin! It’s about 10 minutes from Gatlinburg and 20 from Pigeon Forge. The cabin was very clean and well kept. The management company was fabulous, check in was simple and very well explained. They checked in on us several times during the stay and even gave us weather updates. We will definitely be back! "

"Wonderful cabin

This was our second time renting from Elk Springs Resort. Booking is easy, staff is professional, helpful and always available. The cabin was better then then the pictures and website described. If you're looking for a luxury cabin call Elk Springs Resort, you will be happy you did."
Jul 29, 2020 - Daniel T., Leesburg, FL
"Overall a bit disappointing
We rented our cabin over July 4th week and overall we had a good time. We have rented 3-4 other times with Elk Springs and did notice some differences this time. Previous cabins had granite countertops and overall a luxurious feel. This cabin, Summit Sanctuary, had laminate countertops, very inexpensive appliances which had issues, a very dirty jacuzzi filter, poorly maintained pool table, old run down couches, mismatched flooring, cheap linens, and very uncomfortable beds. The view was nearly non existent given the tree growth and the feel was more like a neighborhood then a getaway to a mountain cabin. The price was pretty steep for what we received and after this last experience we will likely look at cabin rentals elsewhere. The one positive is that the staff and maintenance are quickly responsive to any questions or issues. (They had to order a new filter which would take days to come in - many in our party were not comfortable using the hot tub)"

"Summit Sanctuary - A true Sanctuary!
This is the second time I have stayed in a Elk Springs Resort cabin. Both times have been excellent experiences. From check in to check out, everything was easy! I will definitely rent from them again! "
Jul 03, 2020 - , Clinton, TN
"Great Weekend, Beautiful Scenery
This cabin is a dream and has anything you could want! While it does take a little bit of a drive to get to civilization(grocery stores, gas stations, etc.) the views and relaxing feel are worth the drive. I have no complaints."

"Perfect Christmas Getaway
This company makes it easy to just come and enjoy your vacation without having to worry about anything! The cabin was immaculate and never had one issue! We had the perfect Christmas getaway with our family. Will use elk springs resort every year when we visit from now on!! "

"Paradise in the Wilderness
When we arrived at the cabin we were very pleased Of the location and the cleanliness of the property. The inside of the cabin was amazing and really met our needs for our stay as we were attending my sons wedding...The entire cabin was beautiful and comfortable...took many pictures and posted them on Facebook and told many friends already how nice our stay was."
Oct 22, 2019 - Don F., Cedar Lake, IN
"Perfect for Family Getaway
Summit Sanctuary was in a great location to Gatlinburg, restaurants, and a full grocery. Despite the convenient location, it was in a peaceful location and was tucked back in away from the hustle and bustle. There is a little bit of a hill on the final leg up to the cabin but parking was flat. The cabin was clean and comfortable. We slept great every night. Customer service was wonderful and check-in and out could not have been more simple or convenient. We only had one minor complaint. We did not realize we would need to bring our own DVDs to utilize the home theater. There were no DVDs in the cabin so you may want to bring your own if you want to have a movie night. We ended up running down to the nearby Family Dollar and found a couple to watch. Highly recommended!"
Sep 24, 2019 - Amy D., Troy, OH
"Good resort
It was a good stay, but was expecting a cabin to be clean. The cabinets in kitchen, outside porches, grill, and basement bathroom were dirty. The door knob was broken, so we couldn’t lock it while leaving a cabin. "

They even extended our checkout time by a couple of hours as we had young kids and it helped getting everything ready in time. The cabin was clean and comfortable. Hope to do this again one day! "

"Unusable Movie Theater
The Cabin was really nice overall. I like the separation of bedrooms. The bathrooms were all large and the sauna was nice as well. The cabin was in a resort like area so there was no privacy. I was really disappointed that the movie theater was DVD only which was not information that was provided to me before I arrived. The DVD player did not offer a streaming feature like Netflix as an option so we were not able to use it as we did not bring DVD's. The speaker wiring was also not done through a receiver, it was wired to the DVD player. I could not use my laptop HDMI port either. "

"Weekend in Gatlinburg
This was my first time ever staying in a cabin so I was a little hesitant about it. The staff was very professional. They were able to recommend the best size cabin to fit everyone in my party and still keep my budget in mind. and they sent all the information I needed in a timely manner as far as contracts, directions,etc. On check-in day, the cabin was ready before our check-in time, everything was nice and clean. Our stay was amazing. Check out was easy. I loved the fact we didn't have to report to an office for either. I am definitely looking forward to staying at this location again and would recommend them to friends and family. "

"Never Returning
We selected this cabin because of the theater room. It is not a theater room. It is a DVD only room. No cable. No satellite. No digital input possible of any kind. Unless you bring discs from home or find some discs from someone, you will be staring at a blank screen. This is very outdated and very misrepresented. We contacted the Elks Springs resort office and talked with Erica. Her response was to explain to me how everything was just fine and to offer nothing for the dissatisfaction we experienced as customers. The thermostat for hot water is dangerously uncontrolled and can create serious medical burns. The cabin community is crowded and anything but private. "

"Nice place, pretty view
Had a nice time here. Large cabin, nice layout. Property management company was friendly and easy to work with. Only downfalls, the mattresses are thin and flimsy, led to a sore back. Also, it would had been nice if the theatre room had a video input for something else besides dvd’s. If you don’t bring dvd’s with you, then the room is pointless. Overall, we would stay here again "

"Great Location
Loved the central location to both the national park and for our one day in Dollywood. Cabin was clean and as pictured online. Check in and out process was quick and smooth. If you're looking for privacy this is in a complex with many other cabins but we knew this ahead of time because it's well advertised and it didn't bother us. Will definitely consider a return trip with Elk Springs!"

Great time! Cabin very clean, roomy and convenient to everything the area has to offer. We went to Dollywood, dinner shows, white water rafting, played in mountain streams, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Smokies. The theater room was awesome & wish we had more time to just enjoy that. Check in/out couldn’t have been any simpler. We’ll rent from Elk Springs when we come back. "

"Fun, relaxing sanctuary
Summit sanctuary was the perfect place to spend our spring break. Oncvenient to both pigeon forge AND gatlinburg, but far enough out to feel like we could just stay in and relax without having to leave. Pool table and hot tub kept our kids occupied and happy anytime. The theater was wonderful, an upgrade to be able to stream television and Netflix there would be amazing. Then perhaps some games and cards already there for the “game room”. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. "

"Stunning cabins
The cabin looked just like the pictures. The cabin was very spacious, clean, and had a great smell. The cabin pretty much was outstanding! We are in talks of returning for another stay. I have three suggestions. The Cabin starts off with a starter cleaning package. Being that the cabin holds10 people the bag should be more sturdy. The bags were super very thin. Also check out time as 10 am. Thinking a later check out time should be offered even if a few needs to be added. The basement room is very cold, would suggest a much warmer bedding options..Also staff was great rcvd calls with them checking on us s s also not to mention our weekend neighbors were great as well! We were bombed we weren’t able to use our fire place. "

This place was everything we expected and more. It was spotless clean upon arrival. I brought dishes from home that I didn't need, they had everything needed to prepare, cook, and bake.

It was an awesome experience and me and my family will definitely be back to create more great memories!"

"Beautiful Cabin for Our Wedding Guests!
We rented Southern Philosophy, Misty Mountain Lodge and Summit Sanctuary for our wedding ceremony and reception. All of our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding that they ever attended! The staff was very accommodating and helpful, offering their assistance with any last minute needs! We could not have asked for a better location! The property was perfect for a 40 x 20' tent and our 85 guests! Summit Sanctuary was a weekend to remember for our close friends attending the wedding! They were amazed at the beauty and elligance of the cabin! Every one of them have made plans to go back!!! We rented the three cabins for our famiies and close friends to stay for the weekend, which was close to 40 people! . Everyone had a wonderful time during their stay, not only enjoying the ceremony but all the offerings of the cabins! From pool tables and theater rooms to saunas and hot tubs, Elk Springs Resort is top notch! No comparison to other rentals in the area! If you're looking for a fun, relaxing weekend away, or an excellent spot for a moderate sized wedding, you've found it! Thanks to all of the staff for making our special day better than imagined!"

"Summit Sanctuary - over priced
Upon arrival, I inspected the cabin. I found dust everywhere. It appears no one dusted in a while, tables, dressers, TV's, etc. The silk plants were caked in dust. My husband is allergic, so needless to say, I spent the first two hours cleaning. I also was disappointed at the furniture and how worn it was in the living room. There were burn marks on the rugs from a flat iron, bent curtain rods, and the biggest disappointment were the chairs in the Home Theater. Three of them were replaced in cheap seats like at the old time movies. When I pay top dollar, I expect to get top quality. I don't believe I got my moneys worth. Many of the towels were well worn, and not enough for 8 people, without having to do laundry. Not what I expected to do on vacation. Most of the pillows needed replacing, also. The gas grill was disgusting and a rocker on the porch was broken. I called my complaints into the office, only to receive a call the following day from someone at the office inquiring on the cabin and who had no idea I had already called the day before with my complaints.

"Cabin Review
My husband and I stayed in one of your smaller cabins in September and because it was nice we decided to rent from you again to treat our daughter for a destination birthday and invite some family. I found the cabin to be sparsely and cheaply "decorated". Amenities in the kitchen were cheap and sparse as well. Sheets were thin and needed to be replaced. Linens were poor quality as a whole. It felt like a cabin that the owner used solely as an investment and did not have any interest in making it really nice by having the small things like movies, books and extra little convieniences that make people feel like they are staying somewhere exceptional. We stay in cabins throughout Gatlinburg several times a year and I would not recommend or stay in this cabin again, as I found it to be significantly below what we typically find and expect out of rentals in the area. "
Jun 15, 2017 - Jennifer E., Gallatin, TN
"Great Place to Stay
Our family loved staying at Summit Sanctuary! Perfectly nestled in the mountains of Gatlinburg and a 20 minute drive from the town center. When everyone arrived they were delighted with the host of features including the hot tub, sauna and movie room. The response time for any issue no matter how minor or serious is amazing. Everyone is so nice and accommodating. Clean, pristine and well stocked is how I would describe this cabin. One note of advice, make sure to bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, dish and laundry detergent, trash bags and towels. They provide you with a few but it is your responsibility to bring what you need for your stay. If there was one serious criticism it would be that the sofa "bed" was VERY uncomfortable. My husband and I felt so bad for any of the teens or older family members to sleep on it so we took it. We ended up sleeping on the closed sofa because it was so hard and the mattress is very thin. The two queen sized bunk beds and the two private rooms with king beds are sufficient to sleep 8. My aunt and her two teen daughters ended up sharing one of those beds and they had plenty of room. To say this comfortably "sleeps" 10 people is a stretch, unless they sleep on the floor or a sofa, it sleeps more like 8 people. Overall a great place for a great time. "

"Home Away From Home
Summit Sanctuary is a top notch home away from home!!! Even though I was able to see, through pictures, where I was going to spend some valuable downtime, I was blown away when I entered the cabin. Everything needed to feel at home and on a luxurious vacation was provided...a home theater, hot tub, sauna, outdoor barbecue, pool table and jacuzzi tubs. I could have filled out days and nights just enjoying the cabin and never leaving. It was out up time and down time!!! We will be back to Elk Springs Resort with our children and our extended family friends."

Overall it has great. The only issue we had was on Friday and Saturday when we had to call the property management office several times for the loud and intoxicated residents that were travelling together and rented two cabins. We would NOT stay over the weekend again. The description given on the website was very accurate and looked just like the photos provided."

This place was fantastic to come stay. It was fun for myself and my children. You didn't have to bring any dishes or towels. They even left some dish soap to wash dishes. It was almost like a home away from home. The view from the porch was beautiful in the early morning. So much peace and relaxation you wouldn't believe. The cabin was so clean and neatly organized. I will definitely recommend and go back."

Was a hole in black top where a tree had been, one of vehicles arrived after dark, back up to park hole wasn't very visible and cause damage to under car.should fill that in.

"Very nice resort
The cabin was very clean (with the exception of the top of the refrigerator which had months worth of dust on it). The beds were comfortable. The hot tub and sauna were very enjoyable. The kids loved the theater room and they really liked the queen-sized bunk beds. The only minor criticisms of the property would be the pool table has seen better days. It's been used a lot and shows its age. The other issue is the carpeting on the stairs. It looks old and worn. The rest of the home has hard wood floors. It would be a lot nicer if there was no carpeting and hardwood was throughout the home. Overall, we were very pleased with our stay and we will consider staying at Elk Springs again."

Rented this cabin with a group of friends. We all wish we had extended our trip a few days! Gorgeous, clean cabin with amazing amenities. The rainfall showers were a nice surprise. The rental company was attentive and friendly. We had no major issues during our stay. The only change I would suggest is adding a grippy pad under the rug in the living room on the main floor. We ended up rolling it up and out of the way during our stay because it caused several trips and slips and we were worried about injuries. Minor thing! Other than that, we were thrilled with our stay and would highly recommend it to everyone. We're hoping to make a return trip next year."

"Wonderful time spent with Summit Sanctuary
We heard from one of friend that Elk Springs is one of the best cabins in Smokys. When we book Summit Sanctuary by looking at the pictures in the website we thought the actual cabin will be atleast 80 percent similar to it. But when we wnet and looked at the property amazed to see it 100 percent. It is an fantastic place to stay with family and relax. Planning to visit every year and stay in Elk Spring cabins if time allows. Only concern was to find the property at night time was too difficult.
Great place to spend your vacations!"

"Great cabin, great location, theater room kind of useless
We had a great time and loved the cabin. The only downfall was the theater room. We were expecting to be able to watch cable tv and hook up a PS4 to stream Netflix. We could not do any of that!!! You can only watch dvds on the projector, and there are rules stating if you mess with to in any way you will be charged. I think it should be stated in the description that that is not allowed, when you are booking. Other than that we had a great time, and would use this cabin again if we ever come with a big party. We had 10 people. "

We had a wonderful weekend at Summit Sanctuary. There was simply not enough time to take full advantage of everything - the National Park, the shows in Gatlinburg, the home theater, the sauna, the hot tub, the pool table... Just too much for a single weekend. Summit Sanctuary is great - comfortable beds, nice furnishings, fully stocked kitchen (but the knives are very dull). I wouldn't call the view "spectacular", and the neighboring cabins are pretty close so it isn't secluded or anything, but it was still nice to sit on the balconies or in the hot tub at night."

"Another Great Stay At Elk SPrings
This year we stayed at "Summit Sanctuary". We found the cabin to be clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the Movie Theater and hot tub. The only negative for this room was that the first row of chairs did not match the second row of recliner type chairs. They weren't as comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked but the pans were missing much of the nonstick coating, so we bought an inexpensive set of pans to cook with. Overall, this cabin was great but could use some newer curtains/curtain rods and a little updating. The kitchen needs a broom, we couldn't find one in the cabin. Mattresses were a little soft for our liking but someone else may like them that way. There was an issue with a bee/wasp nest higher up in the rafters outside near the front door. Spoke with an employee in the am and the staff took care of the problem by the time we returned at 5pm. These were the only real negatives about Summit Sanctuary. We do prefer the "Basswood Lodge" just because of the recent updates to fixtures and furniture and will probably stay there next year. The resort itself is close to Gatlinburg and there is a "Food City" grocery store nearby (open 24 hrs during summer until Labor Day, McDonalds, Subway and Family Dollar and Dominios. The resort grounds was clean and pretty. The staff was great from beginning to end. We will be back in 2016!"

There was a pool table room and theater room and two living rooms with a tv in every bedroom as well. I will stay here again it was a great experience.

We were very happy with our recent stay. The house was clean and comfortable. The kids liked the hot tub, sauna and pool table. The grill was very clean and the dishes/cookware were good. Really no complaints, you'll be happy in this cabin."

"Too cold
Air conditioning at the basement is not working so well it's extremely cold at night. Living room is kinda small for 10 people. No blow dryers. "

"Plenty of Room
Making cabin selection and reservations was so easy and fun thanks to Marty Rogers. She was very professional and very helpful. We have a family of 6, with my oldest son 24yrs. another two boys 16 and 14 yrs., and finally our "cherry on top", a daughter 10yrs. old. Everyone had plenty of room and privacy. The orientation of the cabin put the decks facing south, which gave the interior plenty of natural light. This would be perfect for extending the comfort of enjoying the 3 amazing porches even in late fall and winter. Even though we didn't have time to enjoy he theater room until our last night, it will be a must for all our future reservations. The screen size was perfect and the sound was top quality. I'm not a clean freak but I can spot a hair a mile away (It's a curse), but this cabin was spotless! The kitchen was equipped with everything you could need to prepare and serve home cooked meals. Don't bother packing a can opener "just in case", they have everything! Take foil if you want to line the grill though. Washer and dryer worked great, hot tub was wonderful while star gazing and sauna got nice and hot! Totally enjoyed our stay!!"

"Happy Haven
We got this deal on Groupon and I was very skeptical because when you look at lodging on the internet you are sometimes mislead. The cabin was wonderful, the view was to die for, the town was so cute and we really enjoyed ourselves and would love to make this our annual before the winter vacation."

"Summit Sanctuary
We had an issue with the movie room DVD two nights in a row and by the second night maintenance came over at 11:00 pm just to fix it! It was awesome!"

"Some disappointments for the money
We loved what the cabin had to offer. We are looking into investing in a rental property at this time. The things that we were disappointed in were the cleanliness and location. We were hoping for a view of the mountain or more scenic ie, nature instead of the road and cabins. Upon walking into the resort we could see the dust on everything and there were spider webs throughout. For $1200 we really expected it to be clean. Also, because the sauna had a timer for an hour, it never did feel like a sauna, which we felt to be a waste of our money. The cabin itself is beautiful and we are looking into cabins where relatives can gather for the holidays. We have many children in our families and we have twin babies ourselves and I'm just not sure that we feel good about letting them play on the floor etc. Again the cabin was breath taking...but those few things listed above were disappointing."

"Very nice property!
Would recommend a thorough cleaning (corners, out of the way places, deck floor, etc. Front of refrigerator had streaks that had been there for quite a while) Great property, great location. "

"Awesome Amazing Cabins
We loved our stay at the Summit Sanctuary cabin in Elk Resorts. Totally impressed by the cabin - for once the actual details matched the photos. The cabin had everything as shown in the pictures and very nicely decorated and stocked. The kids enjoyed having one level to themselves with the media room and the adults enjoyed the pool table and hot tubs. The linens, towels, dishes everything was clean. We actually plan to return to this resort going forward to enjoy quality and peaceful time with the family. Not once with a group of 10 for 3 days stay - had we to call the maintenance people for anything- that in itself speaks a lot of the quality Elk delivered. We have put the same feedback on tripadvisor too.. so that speaks volume!! Awesome ... hope u continue to keep it that way. "
