"A different experience
Overall, we loved the cabin. It was something different for my group of friends and I. We were a small group of middle-aged women just looking for a relaxing yet different experience. It was peaceful and quiet and the scenery was beautiful. I wish that the cabin was a little cleaner and that we had some of the basic start necessities to clean, like dish soap or the dishwasher detergent that was outlined in the instructions. Also, we weren't given instructions on how to leave or clean towels as I have experienced in other Airbnbs. I would still recommend Elk Springs if you are looking for the quiet and peace of nature."

"Wonderful vacation with family
We had an absolutely wonderful week in Gatlinburg. We stayed in the Buckwild cabin wihich was perfect for us. Everything was as described and worked perfectly for our family. We had a couple of small issues but they were resolved quickly. We had a couple of days of rain but that didn’t stop us. We can’t wait to it again. "

"Christmas Vacation
We really enjoyed our stay at buckwild. We had a small party 4 adults and 1 child but we all had our privacy being that the bedrooms were all on different floors and each floor had an entertainment space. The kitchen was decently stocked with utensils and cooking ware. We all enjoyed the arcade game, pool table and big screen downstairs. The directions to the cabin was definitely the easiest route it only got steep and tight on the roads closest to the cabin. We plan on staying at elk springs again when we return to Gatlinburg. My only com was I wish I could see more mountains."

"Stay was good
The cabin was clean and the staff was great. Upon arrival we had a problem getting in but it was resolved quickly. We also had an incident on site but management came along and handled the situation gracefully and assured my family of our safety while on their property. "

"The Smokies At Elk Springs Lodge
Buck Wild at Elk Springs Lodge was a beautiful cabin and beautiful location. It was clean and comfortable everything was as described and we will defiantly use Elk Springs Lodge again. The only thing i would suggest to the is that the let everyone know that the sidewalk to the cabin has a steep grade. "

The cabin was great for three couples. Cabin was very, very clean we had a great time, and on Sunday evening, a bear walked right past our cabin. Very exciting! Thanks for arranging that. Lol"

"Will not be staying at Elk springs again.
The first problem was the heat. I called upon arriving because the cabin was so hot and was told the thermostats are locked and can not be set below 70. My other issues in no particular order are the dishwasher sucked and had to hand wash dishes after running it. The light bulbs that where not burned out where the yellow dim ones so at night it was hard to see when doing a puzzle,playing cards and cooking .The air hockey table didn't work that well. The felt on the pool table was tornand worn out amalso the rack was broken.Both fold out beds leanded to one side.The stopper in jacuzzi tub was broken,they had a stopper to use that didn't hold the water. The cabin was mostly clean but there was broken glasses on the basement patio that I cleaned up myself. The power went out while we where there and maintenance can in a short amount of time to fix the fridge that stopped working and leaked but did not bother to clean the water out of the freezer and left the puddle to freeze. So no we will not use this company again. "

"Buckwild get away
Cabin layout was very nice, 3 couples stayed so we were able to gather and also have privacy. Very disappointed in the view, there was none due to tree overgrowth around cabin. When I booked cabin I was told there was a view. Also disappointed in cleanliness of cabin. In main floor bathroom there was a heavy layer of dust on the baseboard. Blinds in windows had visible dust on them, windows in living room had hand prints and smudges. Floors were questionable as after being in our bare feet a few hours our feet were black on the bottom. We had a spill on floor when we cleaned up with damp paper towel it was also black from dirt. Home theatre only accommodated 3 people to view from one couch, there was 6 of us. Kitchen could use more silverware, we had wash to forks every meal, there was only 8-9. Mixing bowls and casserole dishes would help in the kitchen as well as a hand mixer. "

"Nice cabin and location is pretty nice too.
A pretty nice place although it's a little close to the neighboring cabin. Also, construction on another neighboring cabin wasn't the greatest thing for a peaceful, natural environment."

My friends and I had a great time staying at the Buckwild cabin with Elk Springs Resort. The website pictures are a very accurate description of the cabins layout, amenities and location. The property was extremely clean and the customer service was amazing and extremely professional. I would most definitely recommend this property to my family and friends. "

"Buckwild
We enjoyed our stay.The owner definitely needs to upgrade the cabin. The grill needs to be replaced and the hot tub needs maintenance.Only about half of the jets were working.The remotes to the TV's,etc need a label to what they go to. But for the price, it's hard to complain too much."

The cabin was clean and well equipped. It was a great location only minutes away from Gatlinburg. Our power went out due to high winds and restored very quickly. Elk springs resort staff were very easy to reach and pleasant to interact with."

"Great stay!
We were in town for a soccer tournament at Rocky Top Sports World. It was very convenient to the fields. We didn’t have to go into the busy, downtown Gatlinburg area at all. The grocery store was convenient- we could go there without getting caught up in the congested Gatlinburg strip. Cabin was beautiful - great setup to share cabin with 2 other couples. "
Mar 28, 2023 - Alicia R., Franklin, TN
"Easy Access and Quiet; plenty of room
Living space and bedrooms were good sizes. It was able to accommodate 10 people, 4 adults and 6 kids. Nice and quiet location, a quick drive to get to grocery store and attractions. Had a couple of minor issues but was able to reach support by phone and chat to get those issues resolve. Furniture was comfortable and the kids really enjoy the hot tub, pool table, and projector. Some areas could have used a little more attention to cleanliness and one of the pull-out couches was broken so we pulled the mattress out so it could be used on the floor (maintenance came out and said it needed replaced). We also were able to get a late checkout at noon instead of 10am which was really helpful for us and our kids. "

"All was good for one day
We arrived the 23rd, everything was good, i say good cause when we arrived i noticed the bathrooms were clean but just like "quick clean" type of cleaned. I also noticed there was no complimentary shampoo just soaps but that's ok. Then we received a message to leave our faucets running or dripping to prevent pipe freezing overnight, which we did, in the morning we woke up to no water or power, the power came back on after 30 minutes but we went without water from the 24th-26th. I called maintenance and they never picked up, till i called again after so many many many calls, maintenance didnt show up till around 5pm, and when i greeted them they greeted me with, "you shouldve let us know sooner" as if i hadnt tried, i understand they had many other customers they had to help but they seemed bothered to be there. We couldnt use the toilets, showers, or Drink water, we kept running out of bottled water and had to flush the toilets with bottled water only in emergencies, which means we had to hold it in most of the trip, and we had two children with us and it was 9 of us total. The 25th maintenance was supposed to arrive around 1 (i understand it was christmas) but they never showed up, or let us know they wouldnt show up, they came to bring us more water after we asked for more cause all stores were out. I told the owner and they said maintenance wouldnt be there till the 26th which was our check out date. None of us felt comfortable after the first day, i understand these things happen but as cabin owners or renters they should know the situations that could arise and be prepared for them. We paid almost $2,000 for this cabin that we did not get to enjoy or be comfortable in at all. This was our first family vacation ever and it was ruined honestly. We were offered no type of discount or refund. Also The couches on the main livingroom were a bit worn out. "

"Buckwild Cabin
Our stay at Buckwild Cabin was good, but we had several issues that other renters should be aware of. Check in time was 3 pm and we received a text saying it would be delayed until 4 pm. We arrived a little after 4 with no sign of a cleaning crew and no way to get in (it was 95* outside). We called and texted the office with no reply. Finally at 4:30 they gave us the code to get in. The cabin was GREAT and perfect for our family, but we also ran out of basic supplies. They gave us ONE trash bag for a weekend. When I inquired about more trash bags, I was told that it was in one of the emails that they only provide 1 trash bag. When I asked if they could bring me another trash bag, the answer was "no". While the cabin was great, the customer service left a lot to be desired."

"Like Elk Springs overall, but this stay not as great as the last
We stayed at Elk Springs last year. The company and customer service were excellent, and we really enjoyed last year's cabin. This cabin, however, did not look like it had really been cleaned. The linens had been changed, but the floors and counters were sticky and dirty. The glasses also looked like they hadn't really been cleaned. There was also a maintenance man inside when we got there, which was a little scary since we had been notified it was ready to check in and didn't expect anyone to be there. The property management offered to have someone come in to clean, but by that time we had swept and cleaned the counters ourselves. There had been damage done to the floors in the past, so it didn't look as nice as the previous one. I would stay at Elk Springs again, but not this cabin."

Everything was perfect! The cabin was clean,smelled fresh soon as we walked in the door. We couldn't find a broom and they brought us a new one very quickly. I would recommend this cabin at Elks Spring to anyone. The kids had a blast!"

"Terrible Stay! Don’t go!
I inquired about construction nearby when booking and they assured me it would be completed. It was not. There was commotion early and all day. 7-10 trucks and cars piled right on top of our rental every day. Construction crew swearing, our children couldn’t play outside. The cabin itself was filthy. There was caked on dust everywhere. Elk Springs said they would have someone come clean after I complained. It should have been done and inspected before arrival. We already had enough invasions. Such a disappointment. Will never book with them again. They are false. Horrible experience. "

"Buck wild cabin
We had a wonderful family vacation. The cabin was very spacious although not as easily accessible as we were told it would be. We had a member of our party that has trouble walking and the sidewalk leading to the cabin is rather sloped and was hard for her to manage. Other than that we enjoyed our stay. "

"TRIP RUINED
Cabin was rented for a couples trip. Cabin was not cleaned and the top floor had so much dust. Kitchen appliances were dirty. The bottom floor was freezing so their solution was to close the vents in the rest of the cabin to heat the bottom floor (so we had to be chilly to warm up the couple downstairs). The hot water heater went out and could not be fixed. They “claim” no other cabin was available for us to move to, resulting in our entire days activities to be canceled because no one could shower. Upon checkout customer service was horrible. I emailed and texted for someone to call me so we can discuss the matter and they would not contact me. I called and when I was queued the phone call was always disconnect. They sent me an email on what they felt was a solution and that was it. 6 adults were inconvenienced and there was no compromise. We had to cancel multiple reservations and stay inside of the cabin. I would NEVER utilize Elk Springs Resort again. I know the cabin owners cannot be aware of how they operate. Elk Springs does NOT care about the renters wellbeing just about getting your money. "

"Christmas Stay
The rental experience was good. The cabin was great with plenty of room for our family. The location was great, just fair out enough to be away from the "noise", but a quick trip to Gatlinburg if we needed something or if we planned a day there. Elk Springs was quick to respond with a couple different problems. I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the cabin. I had to have cleaning come out twice to vacuum up the carpets as they were not suitable for our toddler to crawl on and find all the leftover pieces. It did not look like the furniture had been moved to be swept under in a while. The general cleaning (counter surfaces, toilets, sinks, general sweeping) appeared to have been completed, but the cabin did not appear to have been deep cleaned in some time. This is my second stay with Elk Springs with the first experience being perfect. I have stayed in another cabin with another resort and it was not the quality of Elk Springs. I would still recommend Elk Springs and hope that the cleanliness of this cabin is a one off. I would give THIS cabin and THIS experience 3.5 if possible."

"Couples Trip
Overall everything was OK but needs some improvements. I think they need to put a whole pot set in the cabin and also the cleaning was not all up to par. we had to clean the whole cabin ourselves. Floors were still dirty and the dishes in the dishwasher was still dirty. all the kitchen appliances needed whip down, dirty linen on the bed. And they also need to have someone dust and wash all the curtain. Just to name a few things. I will not rent this cabin again because you can hear EVERYTHING!!! "

"Had a blast!
The whole family loved it. The only issue was it was a bit difficult for my father in law to make it up the sidewalk. The place was clean and well maintained. While we were there we enjoyed the local shopping and restaurants. We played mini golf and even enjoyed the Dolly Stampede. If asked if I would recommend this place, my answer is I have already recommended it."

"Buckwild cabin
The cabin was in a good location but cabin was nasty I have pic I sent to the company and email them and told them. Well when I drive 6 hours for a vacation to start it should be ready for us get there so when we arrived we go in and look at it it was OK it wasn't until I I got to cook around 6pm that dish has mold food in pots and had to clean the. Spoons had dry food on them food on the pot holders. So then I went to look, look on top ot refrigerator there so water shoes left,dust omg the need to take dust once a week off those flower in the cabin even under the bed and furniture the washer and dryer there was trash beside it and socks and there where clothes in the tables in game room pool table needs to be updated and the project screen I was told I could buy adapter and hook up my tab or computer so I bought the adapter and then called and they said I could I had to rent blue ray so I was mad air hockey take was broke need updated dish washer was broke had to wash all my dishes by hand. And after clean the cabin they call the next day say the could send some one I told them I already clean now they. I sent pic to them 2 time no word back I was hope with all the money I spent I could get some back or something put no I haven't even got a email back from the manager about it so I will never rent from Them again. Sad it was like that I hope the clean that cabin good for the next customer cause it wasn't for me. "

This appears to be one of the newer cabins available with Elk Springs. That or it is just kept up much better than others. Either way, there were zero issues with the Buckwild cabin and we would definitely stay here again if returning to the area."

We were placed in this cabin for our last night due to unforeseen circumstances with our booked cabin. Overall, the cabin was clean and well maintained. The pool table and air hockey game were in poor condition; the arcade game did not power up, so we were unable to play. This cabin served it's purpose for one night. Probably would look at another cabin for an extended stay."

Our cabin had plenty of room for our family! Our two teenagers had their own floor and master bedroom to rest and relax in! We used the theatre and hot tub every night after sightseeing. I would definitely recommend this cabin! DID'NT WANT TO LEAVE! "

"Worth the time and money, Great for families
Location was awesome with a beautiful view of the mountains. Picnic table outside was wonderful for a few meals and relaxing outside. Covered porches were also very nice but would like to have seen the chairs on the main level cleaned a bit more from bird droppings. We spent the most time on the upper level porch which was pristine. Grill could also use a thorough cleaning and has too much built up grease which causes it to smoke significantly. Kids loved the arcade, pool table and air hockey, which came in handy when it rained. Appreciated the space from our neighbors. Rooms were great with comfortable king beds. They left additional bedding out for sleeper sofas that we appreciated but didn’t end up using. Overall, a wonderful experience that made us want to schedule another vacation with them in the future. We came in cautiously optimistic and it exceeded our expectations. "

"Family vacation
The cabin was wonderful and looked just like the pictures. The kitchen utensils though need some TLC. There were only 4 knives and there were 5 of us. The plates and cups had been in the cupboards dirty so make sure to run the dishwasher with anything you are going to use. The hot tub was wonderful ! And the location and resort is beautiful"

"Family vacation!
This cabin was awesome and well kept up . Stayed here for 5 nights and it was an successful vacation. Cabin was nice and cleaned and well maintained. I would definitely stay here again. Movie screen was nice the seating was comfortable. And the hot tub was amazing in the morning . Will recommend to others. And for some people wondering has great water pressure and hot water ! Only thing I recommend is a new couch down in the movie room other then that I was great ! "

I really enjoyed my stay at the resort. My cabin looked just like the pictures I saw online the staff was only a text or call away if needed. We were only 10 mins from food attractions and stores."

"Unacceptable
This could be a very nice rental. As I reported it is not kept clean. Stained mattresses/cover, no mattress covers on (2) beds, artificial foliage filthy, unsightly dirty toilet brushes, mildew shower curtains, mildew towel racks, dirt in washer, stained toilet (unclean), light bulbs blown, different light bulbs in recess, chandelier and bathrooms. That's just to name a few."

"Gatlinburg Cabin
We had a wonderful time and the cabin was fabulous. The only issue we had is that several light bulbs were out throughout the cabin. Also the front door did not lock properly. Even once it was set if you turned the door knob hard you could easily walk right in.

Once we finally found the property! It was a nice property in all. But not clean at ALL. Put in for them to send house keepers back out, but never came the next day. So me and my Sisters cleaned up how we like it to be cleaned! Also need to invest in bigger TV'S in bedrooms and also better Mattress, horrible mattress on basement and Main floor bedroom. Maybe with COVID going on at the moment you guys should not rent the cabin in the same day,that a guest is checking out, so that they house keeping can Clean Properly!"

"Buck wild reviee
While this was a lovely cabin, it feel short of my expectations. First, the instructions sent to me had 3 different addresses for the cabin. The instructions suggested not using GPS, so I called the number provided. Brandy told me the GPS was accurate so use it. Next, the cabin was loaded down with signs all over of what not to do which was irritating. I would expect the linens (bedding) to be a higher quality than discarded yard sell buys.. needless to say, this was our first and last visit at Elksprings resort."

"Buckwild
Buckwild is a beautiful cabin in great location for privacy but not great view of the Smokies. The management company was responsive as there was a millipede infestation which was horrible as it was not only on the outside but all over the entire lower floor which made that 1/3 of the cabin unusable. They came to clean them up and spray but with zero effect as I would clean up hundreds daily. The stocking of the kitchen is at the low end of both quality and quantity. My main issue is the management company knew of this issue and did not alert us in advance as we would have changed to a clean cabin elsewhere."

"Wonderful Stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Elk Springs (Buckwild Cabin) and plan on staying here again next year. This cabins are close to downtown Gatlinburg, yet nestled into cozy mountaintops and very quiet. With three kids, the Buckwild three level cabin was fantastic with lots of games to play and plenty of room to relax. We had a couple of problems with the theatre and ice machine when checking in, but the staff was extremely responsive, very nice, both issues were fixed quickly. "

There were no shampoos in the bathrooms No lotion Not enough soap for 2 days We have to go buy soaps and shampoo
It’s much better to stay in a hotel than this place We were in the town around 1:00 pm and they didn’t provide us access till 3:30 pm 3:00 pm was the official check in Check out time was 10:00 am which was not extended upon request Saying new guests are coming So I asked them is it different rules today’s guests Coz we didn’t get the room till 3:30

"Breathtaking
The property was just beautiful. The cabin was very clean and very well-maintained with all the amenities that are needed for a home away from home. Close to different attractions but secluded enough for a peaceful get away. The only thing I would recommend is if you have children, you would need to bring some safety gates to keep them from going up or down the steps. I would definitely recommend staying here. "

I wish there would have been outlet covers as we have two small children. Also baby gates would be awesome at the stairs. I would also add on the website that you need DVDs to watch on the theater screens, that you can't just watch tv. Other than that we had a great time and will be back again!!!"

Family vacation with 2 adult sons and daughter/son in law and 2 children ages 1 and 3. We liked having bedrooms/living areas on each of the 3 levels so sons could stay up late and kids could go to bed. Bring 2 baby gates if you have little ones. Very good customer service from management."

"Great Stay
We were pleased with our stay. Cabin is spaced out from other cabins. Ideal for privacy & lots of parking. Lots of entertainment for everyone, from shooting pool, playing air hockey, enjoying the hot tub,watching movies,making smores,etc. The only issue was when we got locked out of a bedroom (kid locked the door) and one of the cable boxes went out. We called and left a voice message for maintenance. We waited 2 hours and no one contacted us. We called a 2nd time and a person answered & help arrived within 5 minutes. So I'm not sure if they actually check the answering machine. Overall great place to stay! Most likely will stay again! Staff very friendly! "

"Clean Cabin.
The cabin was beautiful and clean. The customer service was hands down the worst I’ve ever experienced and is the sole reason we won’t be returning to Elk Springs. The cabin was spacious and the arcade machine was a hit with the kids. We had rented a few movies for the kids to watch on the projector before bed, but the projector kept turning itself off every few minutes so we had to keep the remote close by to keep turning it back on. The beds could use some updating, they were a bit firm and the pillows were flat. But overall it was a nice getaway, but we won’t be returning. "
Apr 13, 2018 - , Crown point , IN
"Enjoyable Vacation
My family enjoyed our stay in Buckwild cabin. With plenty of amenities and room to spread out, the nine of us remained entertained and comfortable for the duration of our four night stay. A few more days were needed even to make full use of all that was there to do. We enjoyed the relative seclusion of our cabin and the minimal to almost non-existent intervention of property management. It was truly our family and our family alone. The only point of criticism is that there are very minimal modifications (i.e. lateral bracing and raised edges for air hockey table, permanent fix to arcade intermittent image visibility) that can be made to the amenities that would substantially increase the enjoyment that they deliver. All things considered we are satisfied customers with intent to return in the near future. Thanks! "
Feb 21, 2018 - , Boiling Springs , SC
"Nice Vacation
when we got to the cabin the main floor bathroom toilet would not flush and the water in the toilet and sink was brown, maintenance did come out and repair quickly. the website needs to reflect updated pics, especially of driveway and entry to house because some may not be able to walk up the ramp and some interior photos are not correct according to current state of cabin. Pool table needs to be more in the center of the room so you have room to play (only easily accessible from two sides). upstairs shower liner was moldy and several dirty spots on carpet. Didn't personally feel sheets were very clean. Recommend at least one extra toilet paper roll per bathroom (we only had one in each bathroom). the main floor was not technically a master suite because the bathroom was not connected (website states 3 master suites). Also the arcade game did not work which is one reason we rented this one for the indoor entertainment it had and the air hockey pucks were very cheap and didn't slide well on table."

My husband, our two daughters, their husbands and our four small grandkids stayed recently for 8 nights in Buckwild. We had a wonderful time. It was a wonderful location and close to the Arts and Crafts area, the store, and downtown Gatlinburg. It was clean and beautiful and we enjoyed the easy check in and out process. The three king suites worked perfect for separate families. Just one suggestion, if you are bringing small children, bring a few baby gates for the stairs. Would definitely stay again."

"Great Cabin, Great location, better than pictures
What a great place to stay! Staff was great, making sure everything was to our liking once we checked in. Buckwild is in a great location, not too far from all of the attractions, but secluded enough to give you that mountain cabin experience while still in a safe resort area. The farthest we had to drive was about 40 minutes to whitewater rafting. Downtown Gatlinburg is about 12 minutes and Pigeon Forge about 20, grocery store about 10. The place was very clean and better than the pictures. All of the Tv's are upgraded from the pictures with flat screens in all bedrooms, along with a bigger flat screen in the corner by the pool table. Flat screen on the loft with an air hockey table. My kids and I loved the arcade game and the 8 foot theater screen on the lower level. Comfortably accommodated 7 (My wife and I, My 2 girls, My Mom and My In-Laws). The hot tub at night was awesome! There is a lot more space in the rooms than the pictures show. If I had 1 complaint (which is very minor) it is that the directions that they give you are kind of confusing. We were coming from St. Louis and got lost, they tell you not to follow your GPS once you get off 40 because it may get lost on some of the roads. But I decided to eventually just follow my GPS on my iPhone and it took me right to the resort. Also, used it the entire time there and it worked every time. I would just put in your destination before you leave the Cabin just in case you lose service. Check-in was easy as they just give you a code for the door which is obviously reset for every guest. Beds were very comfortable. Jacuzzi tub was awesome, as my 8 year old would get in and look like she was in a mini hot tub because it is so big. Bring your firestick, roku or google chrome as you can use it on the theater screen while relaxing after a long day. Bathrooms are very big. Overall, just a great place to stay!!!"

Peaceful location in the Smokies. Convenient to grocery and activities. Cabin was in good condition. We had a family of 5.

"OK overall
Cabin was decorated nicely and lots of room. There were a couple of maintenance issues that we had. The jacuzzi tub in the downstairs onsuite did not work. The toilet in the mainfloor bathroom took a long time for the tank to fill up and flush. The big thing for me was only 2 or 3 towels were in each bathroom. There were 3 bathrooms and we had approx 8 or 9 towels for a group of 10 people. We had to wash towels the very next morning after arriving in order to have clean towels for that day. Make sure and bring washing powder and dishwashing tabs as well. You are required to leave dishes clean in the dishwasher when you leave but they don't give you enough for the week. Also, signs everywhere in the cabin that said do not do this or do that or you will be charged for any damage that this may cause. I understand renters can be very disrespectful of property but for those of us who are respectable, it made me "

"Nice Weekend
We have used Elk Springs Resort for the past 6 years and have always enjoyed our stay. This stay wasn't quite as nice as others in the past. When we arrived for our 3pm check in we had to wait 30 minutes for the cleaning lady to finish up. Our cabin's WIFI kept going off and on the entire stay. The Projector for the theatre kept giving us an overheating warning saying the filter needed to be cleaned. So we were unable to enjoy it. I will say they are always very quick to get back to you when you call and have an issue. Overall we still love the cabins and we will return, its just this stay did not meet the expectations that past times have lead us to expect."

"Best vacation ever
I had a good experience with elkspring, the cabin was clean and easy to drive to. Although, we've been having problem with the internet and they have miscommunication with their maintenance guy, since the first maintenance guy came and move the router without communicating with them, and they thought we did it ourselves, so this is the only problem they have, but that wasn't a big deal, and they still end up fixing the internet even late at night. So overall, they are easy to talked to and they have the best customer service."

"Girls Weekend at Buckwild
This cabin is beautiful inside and out. Comfortably housed 6 ladies for a long weekend. The hot tub with great views and entertainment amenities were a hit. My only suggestions would be more comfortable couches for the great room, more comfortable bar stools for kitchen counter and the cabin needed a couple more place settings for meals. Otherwise a great experience and would definitely come back to same cabin. "

"Wonderful Cabin in Peaceful Setting
This cabin is the great escape for a 3-day weekend (or more-day weekend). It has everything you need for entertaining a group of 12. The setting is perfect, well-secluded, yet only minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and the Smoky Mountains. Our group had a blast, as we went into downtown Gatlinburg on Saturday, and then did a super day-hike in the Smokies on Sunday. We couldn't have asked for a better set-up. The cabin is clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. It is a perfect spot and we hope to return sooner rather than later."

"Great Time at Buckwild
Just stayed a week at Buckwild. The Cabin was great and we had a good time. I am going to list the Pro's and Con's of this cabin.
Pro's Great location. Management response to minor problems was great. Only noted problem was wasp nest on the hot tub and they responded same day to fix. Property was very clean when we arrived. Buckwild is somewhat private compared to other cabins on the property. Kids loved the movie theater screen, pool table and Arcade game. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of space for 6 people with sleeping and sitting areas on each of the three levels. Also had TV in each sitting area.
Con's Furniture looks nice (couch and love seat) however the springs are worn out and very uncomfortable to sit on.
Air Hockey needs upgrade on the equipment as the pucks no longer move freely.
Everything Else was great and I would recommend to others staying in Gatlinburg, TN."

"Quiet and Secluded
We checked into the Buckwild cabin on July 9th and stayed for a week. The cabin was clean and there was plenty of room for the six of us who stayed there. We chose this cabin at the recommendation of a customer service representative. We had done our research and narrowed our choices down to three different cabins but were not sure which one to pick. The representative shared some information with us that we were not aware of (distances of cabins from downtown Gatlinburg, how secluded they were, etc.). We were happy with our final decision.
We had one issue upon check-in that was no fault of the resort. We contacted a customer service representative and they responded within a couple hours and fixed the problem. We were then contacted to make sure that everything was to our satisfaction.
There were ample emails from the resort with confirmations, instructions and directions to the cabin.
We were very satisfied with our accommodations and would recommend Elk Springs Resort to family and friends."

"Buckwild - a little bit of everything
We had a great time at Buckwild cabin. Highlights included the hot tub and deck, video arcade game, pool table, air hockey table - all of which got plenty of use. The proximity to the GSM was perfect and being away from the Gatlinburg strip was clutch. The Elk Ridge community was nice - you never feel too close to your neighbors. The rental experience was easy and the cabin was well kept. "

"The Best Stay in Gatlinburg thus far!!
This is my 3rd time visiting Gatlinburg, but my family's 1st. I've tried different cabin rental companies each stay, and Elk Springs by far, is the best I've had. Our cabin was "Buckwild", and it was perfect for us. The layout was great, and everyone had their own comfortable space. Very clean, beautiful views, and the staff was VERY courteous, making sure we had all we needed, and that we were comfortable. Great job! I look forward to utilizing Elk Springs on future trips!!"

"Nice Cabin No Hot Water in Master Bathroom
I took a small birthday trip for myself and two other couples. Upon arrival the cabin was beautiful but there was a dirty towel left on the bed in the bedroom on the common area floor. We enjoyed the cabin sat around and talked all night when it was time to take a shower we discovered the shower on the first floor did not have hot water. I called maintenance immediately and the representative assured me that a maintenance personnel would be out first thing in the morning which was understandable since it was about 2:00am. The maintenance did not get there until after 12:00pm and then had to shut the water off to the whole cabin and when we returned there was still no hot water. I called maintenance again they showed up around 11:00pm and I told them we had already bombarded someone else’s space to take a shower and they could come back tomorrow after check out since we were leaving in the morning anyhow. I got a call on my way home saying that we declined maintenance to the cabin and my call for hot water was not on file from Friday and they didn’t have a maintenance man on file being at our cabin at on day Saturday really!!!!!! A representative called me Saturday morning and I explained the situation which I believe is the only reason the maintenance man showed up to begin with and then never fixed the problem. This was a huge inconvenience but the cabin was nice. "

"Not what we expected!
Upon first arrival at the cabin at approximately 3:15 p.m. we still did not have a code to get in the door. Several attempts was made to contact elk Springs Resort and someone finally contacted me back and gave me the code. She stated that things were running a little due to the housekeeper's did not have any linen. So the beds were not made when we got there. As we entered the cabin to inspect it,it was not like the pictures the sofas are really worn there were no adequate pots and pans we had to call to get it delivered in which they only bought us 2 pots. We got in the bed on the lower level and it collapsed. We were not able to get in touch with maintenance that night so we had to sleep on the sofa bed which was horrible. This is not a luxury cabin at all. I was very disappointed. Do not believe everything that is posted on this website as per the reviews of this cabin. Buckwild was not a good experience!"

"Where Unforgettable Memories Are Born
My friends and I couldn't have asked for a better place to just relax and celebrate a friend's birthday in the mountains. The place was gorgeous, comfortable, and cozy. The fireplaces were just what the doctor ordered after coming out of the jacuzzi or enjoying the fresh crisp air early in the morning or late in the afternoon. There was an issue with the fireplace (or perhaps we didn't know how to work it) but maintenance responded within 20 minutes. The layout of the house was perfect, giving everyone enough privacy but not so much space that you feel seperated or disconnected. How dare I not mention the neighborhood and community. The neighbors and folks in town were AWESOME!!! They were all so welcoming and helpful. We were so close to everything- shops, galleries, shopping, outdoor activities,and etc.! Oh yeah, dont forget to go moonshine tasting!!!! Nothing but great memories and fun times at this place. We will return in January!"

"Overall a great place and great getaway
Beautiful cabin perfectly situated just outside of town and very private in that you could not see any other cabins directly. There is room for improvement: 1) the cabin was very clean on the inside when we checked in, but the property on the outside had trash around the cabin that was ignored. 2) the DVD player for the theatre room was very poor quality and the DVDs we rented kept freezing up to the point we had to use the small TV and DVD player upstairs. 3) the pool table was not level, so the balls would roll to one side. 4) the arcade game required service immediately upon checking in, however the management service was very prompt. These are all relatively minor, however they were things the kids really looked forward to at night after busy days hiking and rafting, but we kept discovering issues. Overall the cabin was very serene and well appointed. We would go back."

"Great family get-away!
This cabin and surrounding area provided a great escape for our family. We enjoyed that it wasn't on the main strip in Gatlinburg, yet close enough to allow us to travel to each of the activities we chose throughout the week. Loved having a washing machine (family of 6) and kitchen area to make a few meals each day and offer snacks. (P.S. Enjoyed hiking chimney tops, horseback riding--saw bear, white water rafting and zip lining, plus having some quality downtime--lots to do!). "

this was our first town out of town as couples. We had an amazing time with 4 couples. The cabin was a just right for all of us. Our stay was not long enough so we have booked another cabin for 5 days. We can't wait to return. "

"Pre-Thanksgiving Vaca
Our family of 8 adults and 2 toddlers thoroughly enjoyed staying at Buckwild. The view was gorgeous and we especially liked the separation (privacy) from other cabins. There was plenty of parking for 3 vehicles. We hope to return next year."

"Amazing Time
We did a trip with some close friends and 3 kids 2 and under and it was great. The cabin is amazing and has everything you need. Plenty of room and tons of amenities. It was clean and well-maintained, only a couple minor things that needed to be fixed. The owner and manager were checking in before, during, and after to make sure we were set with everything. I would totally recommend and will plan on coming back very soon. We did mostly hiking and it is beautiful. We also checked out the downtown area and it is very nice. Grocery store only 10 minutes away. We had a wonderful stay and will be back!"

"Relaxing At Buckwild
I enjoyed my stay at Buckwild. This was my 2nd time staying at the resort but a different cabin. I liked the cabin however there were a few minor issues like the tv downstairs by the pool table didnt work, leaving only the dvd player as an option to play. If you didnt bring a movie, then you wouldnt have any tv service besides in the bedroom. Also the couches are a little worn out on the entry level and definetly on the bottom level. The one on the bottom level pillows sunk in really bad due to use. Other than that, the cabin was clean and the grounds were very clean. Enjoyed my experience and will definetly come back."

"Family vacation!
This wa sour first family vacation after our sons marriage to a wonderful girl. Our plan was to go to the beach but with the dates we all could attend, the mountains was where we changed our plan too... What a wonderful experience !! From the moment I called, until the end of our stay, it was nothing but wonderful. Early mornings sitting on a choice of covered porches, eating meals around a table large enough for all six of us, playing games, sitting in the hot tub, taking walks or just a good nights sleep, it was great! They even called to make sure we had everything we needed and our experience was good???? "

"Family Winter Vacation
Great Groupon purchase and a wonderful 4-night stay in the Buckwild 3-bedroom cabin. Snow on the first morning was icing on the cake! Our cabin was less than 10 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg where we enjoyed the sights and, best of all, snow tubing at Ober. About 20 minutes in another direction was Foxfire Mtn. where we did some light hiking on a chilly but beautiful TN morning. The cabin was beautiful...3 stories with 3 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms, a great kitchen and lots of room to relax. Our 4-yr-old grandson thought we were in a tree house! The Elk Springs staff was always helpful, from the time of booking until we checked out. Definitely plan to make another visit to Elk Springs Resort."

"ELK SPRINGS ROCKS AGAIN!!!
This is our 5 year staying with ELK SPRINGS and we will be back.We stayed at Buckwild for 10 days and did not want to leave!! We have stayed at a different cabin from ELK SPRINGS every time and have no issues.All of there cabins are spotless and very well maintained.I even try to look for issues and can't find anything wrong.The cabins are always spotless and everything in working order.Buckwild had plenty of room for the kids to stay busy.We loved the Theater room it was so cozy.The views from Buckwild are breath taking.Buckwild is more private then the other cabins near by(not on top of each other).Check in and check out was awesome we never had to go to any office,they call you with a door code and on check out they just tell you to lock up and have a safe trip home.They even called us to see if we needed anything after we were there for the day.Our family is already getting ready to book our next trip to ELK SPRINGS.Keep it up Elk Springs!!!!!!!!!"

"Keepin' it Calm at Buckwild
It was very nice. We loved that our Cabin was a little more secluded than some of the others. We had a blast playing pool and video arcade games, and just sitting around the fire place "chillaxing". The only real disappointment was that the big TV was not equipped with cable. We were getting really excited about watching UK play basketball while we were there, but ended up having to watch it on a smaller tv upstairs. There are just a few maintenance issues that should probably be addressed... the toilet in the main floor bathroom tends to run, we kept having to jiggle the handle. Also, the auto lighter on the grill did not work and we had a hard time getting the thing lit; putting a long lighter in the kitchen might be nice. Other than that, the place was clean, comfortable and cozy. We would definitely stay here again."

"Bennett Family Fall Break
We will not be returning to the Elk Springs Resort. The carpets in the cabin were extremely dirty and stained in the cabin. My six year old little girl's feet were black on the bottom from walking bare foot in the cabin. The bathrooms all smelled like dried urine. I would think for over $400 a night, I would get better quality."

We spent 2 nights in the Buckwild cabin and had a great time. The kids had a blast with the arcade game, pool table, air hockey table and of course the hot tub. There was plenty of space to hang out. We'll be back again!"

"Fun times in the mountains
it was a very nice experience. We enjoy playing pool and watching movies on the projector screen. I would definitely refer Elk Springs Resort to those who have never been. It was really refreshing to wake up and look out your door to the view of the mountains. We hope to come back in the fall for an even longer vacation."

"Buckwild trip for 3 couples April 2014
It was a great stay! It feels more secluded from several of the other cabin options on the grounds. The decks and bedrooms were great! The top floor and main level were very loud in that you could hear noise from both levels when on the opposite but the bottom floor was very quiet and comfy! The kitchen is nice but the tools supplied are greatly lacking. I brought some ofour own tools to ssupplement just in case and we still struggled a little.very convenient to Gatlinburg trolley and the local family dollar."

Beautiful, clean, secluded, and comfortable. Very spacious, great kitchen, and nice hot tub. Easy to find and close to downtown Gatlinburg. We would definitely book with Elk Springs again!"

"Great cabin with great private space and views
Wonderful location and very private location compared to the other cabins. Very peaceful and all beds and baths were on separate floors which was great for privacy. Property management staff was quick and was great with unprompted follow up. The only negative to me was that the 3rd floor bedroom shams were very dirty and noticeably unwashed. Other than that, we had a fabulous time and would love to come back!"

"PERFECT MOUNTAIN GETAWAY
We will definitely be back to Elks Spring. The Buckwild cabin was perfect-very clean, plenty to do, and great mountain view. Kids loved the arcade game and air hockey. Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen well stocked with everything needed for cooking. This cabin was in great location in Elks Spring, not too close to other cabins and high enough for a great view of the mountains but without a scary drive. The downtown area was only minutes away and an easy drive to store and sites. The whole rental process was a breeze. We loved our experience and highly recommend this cabin and Elks Spring. "

"Buckwild 2014
It was a great time. Beautiful cabin. The hot tub was awesome! There were very few negative thing about our stay. One being someone put dirty dishes back in the cabinet and some Pizza dude walked up on the porch advertising for his company. That freaked out the girls in the hot tub. They should not be allowed to do that. Other than those two things it was a blast. We will be back next winter. "

"Mostly Good, Just a little Bad
Well for starters, the location depends on what you want to do really. For us sugar maple is better because it's closer to pigeon forge than elk springs is and we enjoy the restaurants and outlets. The cabin is beautiful, it has 3 levels and the fireplaces are awesome. It was really too big for just the two of us but it was all that was open,it would be perfect for a big family gathering. The appliances were great, the cookware was great, no complains about ANY of that.
My few suggestions would be that the couches definitely need replaced. They are incredibly flat and uncomfortable. And also the TVs in the bedroom I think should be upgraded for the price of this cabin, they could put some inexpensive flat screens in there not these little TVs from the 90s.
Also as a warning to anyone from places like WV, VA, northern US etc that is used to snow do NOT go to Gatlinburg if there is snow in the forecast. Our vacation was ruined because of 3 little flimsy inches of snow. All the restaurants, all the outlets, EVERYTHING. It was like they had never seen snow before which is crazy, it's the SMOKY MOUNTAINS!! So if you're looking for a winter vacation go somewhere that isn't scared of 1-3 inches of snow because it will ruin your time to not be able to do anything, eat, or even get groceries.
Also, the customer service here was excellent. We got lost several times trying to find the cabin because we usually stay in PF and the front desk guy, I think Daniel is his name is extremely helpful."

"Weekend Adventure
We had 4 adults and 4 toddlers and the cabin was great for all. There was plenty of room and activities there in the cabin. There aren't many activities for toddlers in Gatlinburg so the cabin was critical."

"Christmas in the Smokies
My family and I stayed at Buckwild in the resort. The cabin was beautiful, had ample room for 3 families and my grandchildren throughgly enjoyed the arcade game, pool table, and hot tub (grandchildren called it their hot pool). I would recommend more closet space in the cabin as the first level did not have a closet at all and more dresser space as their was not a dress or chest in two of the bedrooms. Overall, a wonderful trip was had by all and would highly recommend this cabin. Thank you. "

"Great Place
There were a few maintenance problems when we first arrived. Called the property management, they responded very quickly and resolved the problems immediately. The cabin had very nice amenities and we enjoyed everything."
