"beautiful area
First cabin was not a fit for the occupants but thankfully we were put into a cabin that we could stay in and be comfortable leaving the cabin and staying in overnight."

"Amazing location
The place was just breathtaking! Beautiful cabin and perfect for a family get away. Me and my wife had a amazing experience and will definitely recommend "
Mar 08, 2025 - Roland N., Jonesboro, GA
"Relaxing Cabin Stay
My wife and I had never been to this area before and are very pleased with our stay here. We wanted to see bears and were lucky enough to see some from our cabin. We were close enough to go do anything we wanted to do. We went to Gatlingurg, Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, and of course the GSM. "

Very clean only problem was the showers over head and no hot water really "

"Beautiful Resort
Everything was wonderful. But the bed was so uncomfortable. Everything else was marvelous. Thank you for a great stay at Elk Springs Resort."

"4th of July Family get together!
Our stay at this cabin was memorable! My family was impressed by the comfort of the cabin and the beauty of the surroundings. We enjoyed it so much that we are going to try to make it a tradition.. "
Jul 07, 2024 - Leslie H., Fletcher, NC
"Disappointed
The theater room didn’t work at all which was very frustrating. The furniture is extremely uncomfortable. It was clean. We have rented multiple times with Elk Springs Resort and we are becoming extremely disappointed. "
Jun 02, 2024 - Bobby C., KOKOMO, IN
"Mixed feelings
We had an excellent trip. The location and most of the amineties were awesome. However, the cabin is listed under luxury and that comes with certain expectations. First the furniture on the main floor was the most uncomfortable things to sit on. The mattress on the top floor seemed to have been there since the early 1980s. The shower on the top floor is pretty and up to date but the water pressure was so poor it felt like a sprinkle instead of a rain, the seating in the theater is not comfortable nor modern therfore was not used. All of the tvs/DVD players were way to small for the space and barely viewable due to the blurry picture. The main living areas were very clean but the closets had a thick layer of dust in places. There is an open wire in the media room just laying in the floor, and the jets in the tubs needs to be cleaned. Finally my dad would have liked to have had a kruig."

"Hilltop Hideaway
The cabin could use more lighting in the kitchen, internet didn’t work very well and the sofa in the living room was very uncomfortable. Putting those things aside the cabin was clean and kept us warm and dry and that was all we needed. "
Mar 17, 2024 - , Prairieville, LA
"Weekend Trip
We stayed here for a weekend and were overall satisfied. Check in was effortless and overall the cabin was very clean other than one pair of sheets having some hair (could’ve came from dryer so we didn’t make a big deal). The amenities were as expected with a nice theater room and pool table. The only issues we encountered was that the grills self igniter didn’t work so we had to use a lighter and we couldn’t get but one side of the jets on the hot tub to work. However the grill the was very clean and a nice thing to have and we still enjoyed the hot tub. There is a number to call for these things if they are an urgent matter that they can come fix but it wasn’t worth the hassle for our two nights. The beds are very firm mattresses which was not our preference but for a short stay was manageable but definitely would’ve hated it if we stayed longer. The beds also could use an additional blanket or heavier comforters. Downstairs stay very cold even we turned up the heat so plan ahead and bring extra warmer blankets especially if you’re a cold person. There was 3 fleece blankets in the cabin closets so we managed but wished we had more. Just a note that this would not be a cabin for someone who struggles to go up and down steps so make sure you read about the layout of the rooms and what levels they are on. This is our second stay at an Elk Springs Cabin and both times we’ve been happy and would stay again in the future. "

"Hilltop Cabin
This is my 2nd time staying at Elk Springs Resort, and I love their cabins. My kids loved the theatre and everyone had their own floor. We will be back in the spring ."
Jan 29, 2024 - , Inman, SC
"Hilltop Hideaway Getaway
Very nice cabin and great for larger groups. The only downside is that there is not a full beautiful view of the mountains."
Nov 14, 2023 - Cathy C., Indianapolis, IN
"Amazing rental
Secluded up in the hills & a short drive to town. Kids loved the indoor movie theater & the pool table was a win win. Very open floor plan made are stay very comfortable."

"Best part of the vacation
We chose Gatlinburg for our family reunion. Although most of the attendees stayed in town, I refused. Who comes to the mountains and doesn't stay in a cabin. I hadn't been to either Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge before. It was much too commercialized for my liking, but most of the group loved the area. I just wanted to relax from my hectic job, so I spent most of my time in the cabin as it was beautiful, peaceful and comfortable. We had our reunion dinners and games there 4 out of the seven nights. It was big enough for people to visit without being on top of each other. The only issues we had were the grill and the door. The grill had not been cleaned, and the drip pan didn't stay in place. The electronic lock on the door broke twice. Maintenance came out quickly the first time. The other time was at departure, so I don't know the timeframe. If I ever were to go back to Gatlinburg, I would stay at Elks Springs for sure, although I would probably try another cabin because there are so many beautiful ones there. "

"A great cabin!
Very well maintained cabin, with all of the listed amenities being clean and functional. We were very pleased with our stay. Close to downtown Gatlinburg."
Apr 27, 2023 - Jason P., Roanoke, VA
"Worst reception into a first time stay
When I arrived at the cabin, it was clean, but I encountered a problem with not having a "starter kit," such as detergent. I informed the management via email, and they apologized and promised to deliver it, but it never arrived.
In addition, the Wi-Fi was slow and unsecured, with the name of the cabin as the username and "elk resort" as the password. The lack of a password was a significant security concern, and I was told someone could come the next day to fix it, but since I was only staying for three days, this was not a satisfactory solution.
If the staff had done a more thorough check of the cabin, including the guest's directions, these issues could have been avoided. Given the amount of money I paid and the poor experience, I have no intention of staying at the resort again or recommending it to others."
Mar 17, 2023 - Nhu Cam E., Waynesville, MO
"Hilltop Hideaway
The cabin was very clean and no complaints. A couple things that I would recommend though. 1- curtains or blinds for the second floor windows. There were no window coverings on the second floor. 2- Add a couple hand holds for the shower/tub on the second and third levels. The tub was very high and for a shorter person very unsafe to step in. "
Mar 08, 2023 - , Harrison, OH
"Has potential!
The cabin has great potential and location is great! It was spacious enough for 8 of our guests. However it was was very dirty, the floors were not clean there was dust ever and the worst was that the sheets were not changed, there was droll all over the pillow cases it was disgusting. I would definitely bring my own, the fans had so much dust on it you can see it so easily the floors were so dirty. I would rate my experience a 3/5 but I wouldn’t go back to this cabin. "
Feb 14, 2023 - , Lilburn , GA
"Great Stay!
We had a great time, we had to check in a couple of hours late due to it not being ready but besides that it was a great stay. Grill worked great, would recommend updating theater rooms to handle more inputs or screen cast. We loved the cabin! "
Jan 18, 2023 - Father Ryan High S., Nashville, TN
"Great Place
Great cabin. Great location if you go in from Gatlinburg. Clean. Very roomy. Only issue was we couldn't get DVD to play. Kids were bummed about that because it rained one day. I couldn't find a can opener either. Overall, we had a great time. "
Jan 11, 2023 - Malinda P., Wartrace , TN
"It was ok...
The cabin was outdated. Needed handrails for whirlpool tubs, additional hooks/towel racks in bathrooms. Needs luggage racks, laundry basket, more linens/pillows, new beds, dressers (drawers fall out), etc... We were afraid to use any of the "amenities" as there are signs everywhere about how they will charge/fine you for everything- including leaving a wet towel on the floor- it makes for an uncomfortable stay. "
Nov 27, 2022 - , Savoy, IL
"Great place to stay!
This was a great cabin! We had a wonderful stay here. The views are breathtaking. The movie room was a lot of fun- especially since we got to watch Maverick again on the big screen! LOVED LOVED LOVED the very deep jetted tubs and the hot water for a good soak after walking all day! Customer support for Elk Springs is available 24/7 by text and we love that anytime we have a question someone is right there within minutes with an answer! We frequent Gatlinburg 2-3 times a year and will definitely be staying at an Elk Springs Cabin in the future. "
Oct 23, 2022 - James G., Huntersville, NC
"NOT WHAT I EXPECTED TO BE FIRST EXPERIENCE
FOR US AS A FAMILY IT WAS OUR FIRST EXPERIENCE, HONESTLY EVERYTHING CLEAN, BUT A BAD COMMUNICATION REGARDING DAMAGED EQUIPMENT, A DAY BEFORE AND ALL PAID CONTACTED ME THAT THEY DID NOT WORK. A SMALL EFFORT TO RESOLVE THE SITUATION. THEY MINIMIZED THE PROBLEM WITH EXCUSES AND SENT IT TO WASH AND DRY IN ANOTHER CABIN, THEN THE GRILL. AND MORE ...OUR NEXT VACATION IS PROGRAMING TO ANOTHER STATE."
Oct 11, 2022 - JUAN M., INDIANAPOLIS, IN
"Lodge Getaway
The lodge was perfect. Close to activities and nice resort area. "
Sep 25, 2022 - Brandy T., Union City, GA
"Hilltop Hideaway
House was dirty and not well kept, both the dishwasher and gas grill did not work and required a service visit. Remotes for the theater room were kept on cables that didn't stretch to where you sat. Windows were filthy and there was dust and cobwebs everywhere. Our bed frame was broken and had been screwed back together with a 2x4."
Jun 14, 2022 - , Cincinnati, OH
"Four Night Stay at Hilltop Hideaway
Our rental was lovely with some minor inconveniences/disappointments. The space had many fun features! We really enjoyed relaxing in the sauna and hot tub and using the movie room. However, the space was slightly dirty (I found clumps of hair and old cereal on the floor, and my daughter picked up a pill she found near her bed). The grill hardly worked and had broken knobs, and our dishwasher was broken. Maintenance came after I called twice, and it still didn’t work properly after they “fixed” it. For the price, I expected better."
May 09, 2022 - Marianne A., Ann Arbor, MI
"Girls getaway
Our experience was amazing. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The movie theater and sauna was a great addition and very relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. it was a little difficult to find. "
Feb 08, 2022 - , acworth, GA
"Family vacation
The furniture needs to be updated as it is very old and uncomfortable. The televisions were much smaller than we expected. "

"Great resort , great cabin!!
The staff and the resort as well as the cabin at Elk Springs were amazing!! Great job!! We will absolutely be staying here again!!"
Jan 02, 2022 - , Cincinnati, OH
"Loved the bells and whistles but furniture uncomfortable
I think I was more in love with the IDEA of this cabin than the reality. It had a lot of bells and whistles which put it heads and shoulders above the other cabins in the area. I loved the idea of having a THEATRE room and a Sauna! The kitchen was perfect and the view from the dining room table was very pretty! Cheese and wine parties were enjoyed from the picnic table on the patio. We enjoyed the gas fireplace several times and loved the ease of it. The hot tub was in great working condition. But I wouldn't stay here again because the furniture was really uncomfortable. The first night I kept losing feeling in my thighs b/c the mattress was so FIRM! I "fixed it" by adding layers of blankets underneath so I could sleep through the night. The seats in the theatre rooms were also uncomfortable. We tried to fix it by propping up our backs and legs with pillows but you still wished the movie was *shorter.* The couch in the living room was also very shallow. I would have preferred a really loungeable couch in the living room with a BIGGER TV over the Theatre room. "
Nov 15, 2021 - Jo El S., Jacksonville, FL
"Quiet, beautiful, relaxing
Fantastic place to stay. The only thing was the water pressure was awful and water in shower wasn’t hot . Had to take a quick warm shower before temp ran out. Grill ... yikes .... Other than that place is spectacular . Spacious . Movie theater was fantastic . "
Oct 30, 2021 - , Lockport, IL
"Stay away! No joke!
The cabin is old and smelly. Not kept up! We left a beautiful cabin we had booked for the first few days that put this one to shame though that would not take much. Chunks of food was left in both sides of the sink. Coffee stains in the sink. When you cooked grease would drip from the vent hood! The bedroom on the main level smelled really bad of pee. The furniture is old and dirty. The chairs sink down in if you sit in them. The arms of the chairs are filthy. The windows are all filthy. Rockers on the deck are all dirty. The beds and the bathrooms look clean. I feel like the cleaners came in and just did the very basics. The owners obviously do not care or how much pride in this place the pictures that are on the Elks Springs website are the same furniture back it definitely does not to pick the furniture now. The pictures are very deceiving and the place does not look like that now like they do in the pictures. We called the management company and they said they would send cleaners out. But cleaners cannot fix p.m. carpet smell was so strong we had to close the door put a towel at the crack of the door. The cleaners did come out and they wiped off the vent hood with a paper towel and took the food out of the sink I didn’t clean the sink. Then told the rental company we were packing up and leaving. Which we were not we were just wanting a clean cabin or to be moved or to get a discount. The rental company said they were going to refer us to the manager and have the manager call us. they never did never heard another word from them. They said they were going to find out about a discount we never heard anything about getting a discount. I have a feeling this property management company has the cleaners go in and just touch up between renters and they really do not ever intend I’m trying to make anything right they say they do but it never really happens. I would not run again from elk Springs resort. We are picky"

"Amazing stay!
My vacation rental was everything I had hoped for and more! Not only did we have everything we needed at our rental (like plates, cooking utensils, towels, entertainment, etc) but the spot that it was located in within Elk Springs Resort was so gorgeous, I already want to come back. "
Oct 17, 2021 - Michelle F., Chicago, IL
"Hilltop Hideaway this fall
I have stayed several times with Elk Springs and if it wasn’t a good experience I wouldn’t keep coming back. Overall it was a nice place in in a good location as far as close to town but off the beaten path. There are several homes in the same area so not exactly private. The furniture could use some much needed updates and the lowest floor was much colder then the two floors above it. So to warm it we had to turn the heat up which then made the two upper floors too hot. Cleanliness is always a concern and most of it was to my satisfaction, though we did find a used diaper in a window sill when we pulled back the curtain. That was disappointing to say the least. In all like I said a good experience and more than likely will book again when visiting Gatlinburg. "
Oct 13, 2021 - , Sturgis, MI
"Stay at hilltop hideaway
Cabin was great and as expected but there were numerous concerns around cleanliness. The showers had very obvious mildew growing up them, the arms of the chairs in the living room were supposed to be red but were black from age/use, the mid level bedroom smelt very strongly like urine if we left the door shut, and we found a pill on the floor of the upstairs bedroom (thankfully before my 1 year old did). The cabin has great amenities but is in need of a deep clean (dusting and such) rather than a quick clean between guests. I don’t know how someone cleaned the upstairs shower before our arrival and didn’t notice the black mildew all over the white shower liner."
Oct 10, 2021 - , Warsaw, IN
"Would not recommend
The house was dirty and every morning we had bugs/worms all over the floor in the bathrooms, hallways and front door. The curtains were hanging off the curtain rods. The linens wrinkled. Disappointed...would not recommend."
Aug 15, 2021 - Herniani S., NAPLES, FL
"Hilton Hideaway
Hilton Hideaway is a beautiful log home. However, with the way the pictures are posted online, I assumed the home would be free from bugs. The home is 3 levels. On the entrance level where the bunk beds are located and the home theatre system, an innumerable amount of small caterpillars filled bottom floor. Webs and spiders were all along the outside of home on all three floors filling many of the entry ways to the outsized decks. Had I known this were the case, I would have considered another rental. I would recommend having the home treated as this would be fitting for guests. "
Aug 14, 2021 - , Beckley, WV
"Disappointed
Overall, the cabin just didn’t appear to be cleaned thoroughly (bedspreads, tables, floors, etc.) The downstairs was full of centipedes. We contacted management and they came out to spray, but it didn’t seem to help. Downstairs shower would leak water everywhere, because the shower curtain was not the correct size. Coffee maker was dirty. "
Jul 22, 2021 - , Picayune, MS
"Overall satisfied
Cabin was beautiful but I think that it was not cleaned properly. Shower was dirty and floor was dirty. I think more lighting needs to be added as it was very dark when we arrived and had a hard time seeing the numbers of the cabin. "
Jun 01, 2021 - Ginnette G., Lorain, NOTAVAIL
"Family Trip to Gatlinburg
Overall the cabin was a fun getaway. The amenities were generally as described and what you would expect at this price point. We were not overly impressed but not disappointed either. The biggest issue we had with the cabin were the very uncomfortable beds and abnormally small TVs."
Apr 30, 2021 - , Monroe, OH
"Girls Trip 2021
Overall the rental was ok. Pro's We enjoyed the sauna and hot tub. There was plenty of room for the 8 of us. Con's the cabin was older than I expected. The carpets and furniture were worn. The grout around the tubs need to be replaced because it has mold growing. Personally I feel if you are using your home for income, furniture and carpets should be replaced every 2 years. But overall, the cabin was clean and spacious.Oh yeah, the gravel driveway was horrible in the rain. "
Mar 03, 2021 - Heather J., Concord, NC
"Hilltop Hideaway
Stay overall was good.We did have a winter storm that knocked out power for three days. I would suggest preparing guests for those things ahead of time. Elk springs was gracious enough to refund us for those days we were without power. We will definitely be returning!"
Jan 14, 2021 - Jowanna W., jacksonville, NC
"Ugggg
We checked in to find the bedroom carpet and bathroom floor wet, called maintenance someone showed up about 11 pm and couldn't fix it. He said send someone next day. Next day they hadn't shown up by 10 like we were told called office said nobody told them. Also had to have theater room fixed. They sent someone else. We sat in the cabin 2 hours while they worked on it only to realize next morning bathroom upstairs was also leaking. Ask for someone to call me never got a response. The chairs in the living room were falling in. The place definitely needed some work. Sooo disappointed.... "
Jan 13, 2021 - Donna H., Belmont, NC
"Much Needed Getaway
We stayed 2 nights in Hilltop Hideaway. The cabin was clean, comfortable and neat. The staff called to make sure everything was going well. Upgrading the size of the tvs is my only recommendation. We will definitely return."
Jan 02, 2021 - Tiffany W., Memphis, TN
"BEST BIRTHDAY STAY EVER!
I HAD AN AWESOME TIME!Everything was just like the pictures. I will say that I was a little disappointed that our driveway was not paved making it hard to drive up the hill without our car sliding. Other than that, we had a great time! I definitely would recommend this cabin to anyone! The staff was amazing and kept in touch with me everyday. They made me feel like family. My guest and I really enjoyed this trip! "
Dec 15, 2020 - Lauren L., Senoia, GA
"Never Again
The worst, the cabin was not nice at all, the outlets in none of the bath rooms worked, except for the one upstairs beside the tub, Water leaked from the upstairs bath to the down stairs anytime someone showered. The dishwasher was falling out of the wall, to the point you couldn't load it. And for this I paid over three thousand dollars for 4 nights. There were no cords for the theater set up to work, I will never recommend this to anyone and will tell everyone I know to STAY AWAY."
Dec 15, 2020 - Kimberly D., greer, SC
"Paradise in the Smoky's
Loved this cabin. Close to Gatlinburg yet far enough away to feel like your in the mountains. We stayed 3 nights. The Home Theater was awesome! A movie theatre in your own cabin! Hot Tub, Pool Table & Large 2nd floor wrap around deck were all amazing too. Never got around to trying out the Sauna, Ran out of time. You could stay in this cabin and never leave it your entire visit and still have an excellent time in Gatlinburg! Worth the price!"

"Hilltop Hideaway
Overall our experience was good. The first and second floor furniture needs to be updated, when you sit down on the sofas and chairs you literally sink down and hard to get up. We loved the sauna and Jacuzzis were great, the hot tub not so much chemicals were floating around had to have it drained and filled again with an extra charge."

"Very Disappointed
This cabin did not live up to its expectations! The WiFi did not work in the theater although I asked prior to booking due to the other reviews complaints. We were informed that it was fixed and was no longer an issue. Which brings me to my next point. There were multiple LIVE millipedes on the first floor, throughout the Sofa bed, the Shower and Bathroom. We understand that it is migration season but we should have been notified prior to booking. The master bedroom sheets were soiled. Although, housekeeping did swiftly provided new sheets, they did not change the sheets, and I, the consumer had to be the maid while on vacation. Lastly, the jacuzzi was filthy with dirty water as if it not properly cleaned in years. Overall, I was extremely disappointed in the cleanliness at this resort! I only rate 1 star because check-in and booking was easy."

"Not too happy this stay
We have booked with Elk Springs twice and the first stay was great! This time not as good. Both of the bath tubs were very dirty and the main level shower spout was leaking. It was very difficult to get it to stay off so it dropped the entire stay. The entrance was covered with little centipede like insects that were also all in the basement bathroom and sitting area. We attempted to sleep in the upper bedroom but the bed was horribly uncomfortable so the next night we moved to the lower level. Same situation. Could definitely use new mattresses and the pillows were way too soft and would flatten out while asleep. The floors were also dirty. Our socks were filthy within a couple hours of walking around. The landing around the stairs leading to upper level were really dusty and the furniture could use some shampooing. But other than that, the cabin was do-able for the weekend. I definitely wouldn’t stay at this cabin again but look forward to a better experience next stay. "

The cabin was big, however, I do think it was small for 10 people. More than one person could not use the shower, orelse, the water would come out cold. And it's not pleasant in the winter. The wi-fi would not work. Really really really slow internet, and terrible service. The sofa mattress from the sofa bed had barely any cushion. All you felt were the wires almost coming out of the mattress. Terrible. Our experience was not great at this cabin and we will not be coming back. We also found a huge spider in one of the bedroom's. Disgusting!"

Very good cabin with good amenities. It has been wonderful stay and would definitely visit next year. One suggestion though is that if you are reaching the place at the night time, the building names are on boards which are not at all visible and you will have hard time searching for your cabin (management - please have radium boards/lighting around boards for visibility). Second, there is no signal on the phone, but I guess that's the idea.."

We enjoyed our stay in the Hilltop Hideaway at Elk Springs Resorts. The cabin was clean, spacious and conveniently located.

It needs a little maintenance. Beautiful place with great service."

Our cabin was clean, secluded and one with nature. We saw a bear cub beside our cabin 10mins within our visit. Close to Gatlinburg tourist attractions,definitely would recommend for my friends and family. Only down side is that this cabin is on a gravel step hillside. You will definitely need a vehicle with 4wheel drive."

Theater room only worked with DVD player(they said that was stated in the contract an it wasn't) and the HDMI cord was broke. We would of got one but it's the 25ft one and needed a ladder to run it. Alot of centipedes in the bathroom. Just be careful going up the gravel driveway. Very nice cabin. Will stay with resort again but not one with a theater if we are not going to be able to use it. "

"First time guest- Hilltop Hideaway
I wanted to plan a relaxing bonding vacation for my family. I spent weeks looking for the best cabin. We arrived at The property and first had to tackle the gravel driveway. After doing that a few times it got easier. On the second day we returned to a first floor full of millipedes. I had to pick up each one individually with tissues. Picked up at least 30 and they just kept coming. My son who was sleeping downstairs had to always be wearing shoes. I called the company and they sent a maintenance guy over. He said he will spray but there is nothing more that can be done. I requested a vacuum be left here so I could clean them up easier and was told they don’t have an extra but will send someone to vacuum in the afternoon. When we came back in the evening I again had to pick up at least 30 millipedes by hand. Otherwise this is a beautiful cabin with great views. Overall we love Gatlinburg and will be back. I was surprised the management didn’t offer an additional discount for the millipede issue that was so bad at this location. I took another cabin for the rest of my trip and no issue here. "

"Elks springs resort feedback
I have been taking my family on vacation to cabins for many years. I have never been to a cabin that was so unwelcoming. I would suggest taking down all the warning signs about charging for every little thing. It didn't seem like a warm welcome, we felt like we were just the next people to stay there. Also a regular maintenace should be conducted. We had three baths but could only used at a time. They advertise a theatre but was not connected to internet, netflix, or any cable tv. Played DVDs but we had to find a place to rent them. It also showed trout fishing. We rented this cabins mostly because we thought we would be close to the water. Very misleading in my opinion. "

We would have preferred to have a larger TV to watch the football game but once again a minor issue. "

"Hilltop Hideaway - bring the kitchen etc items you want to have
Important note: there are no hairdryers supplied. We found using Google Maps and GPS points 35-45-33N 83-27-12W was the only accurate way to get to house (Waze did not get to correct house). We have rented houses from Maine to Caribbean and everywhere in between. The pictures were relatively accurate; however, they missed the signs throughout the house reminding you if you broke or damaged an item, the price you will be charged is marked with the signs. I have never felt so uncomfortable in a house. Furniture was ok - our comforter had some stains & wear. Check out the excessive caulk job at the tubs. We visited the house with our 2 adult children and their husbands. Cooking was difficult at best due to the poor quality and quantity of the cookware, silverware, utensils. The appliances, while stainless finish, were all entry level builder grade. Basically, for about $500 they could have proper kitchen and other amenities that you would expect to be included at this price point. If you are driving - bring your own supplies. We did not use the hot tub, sauna, or the media room as there were so many posted prices of what damaging different things would cost if we did use it and something broke (a $30 DVD cost $250 to replace - really?) The seats costs $950 (think basic movie theater seats). Towels were another treat - think high school gym class or maybe Motel 6 – but cheaper. Getting to the property was interesting, the house sits on a hill, and the driveway is loose gravel with ruts. The next door neighbors Chevy SUV could not get up drive. We ended up leaving one car at bottom of drive too. Bottom line : If you don’t mind the constant reminder of signs, and plan on eating out, this is a decent house / cabin that will work for up to 6 people (one bunk bed set is in lower level); this house is fully functional, decent location to hiking / town / other attractions. Note: we have no idea who installed the signs - the re"

"Never Again
I have been coming to vacation in the Gatlinburg/ Pigeon Forge area on a regular basis for the past ten years, and I have to say that this experience has been, by far, the worst. The driveway to our cabin was gravel that had not been packed down, which no one bothered to mention. This made getting to our cabin extremely difficult. The next morning came with a leak from the upstairs bathroom into the main level bathroom, which almost caused my 87 year old grandfather to slip and fall. That night came with me discovering stains on our king sized comforter (which looked suspiciously like blood), and maintenance bringing us a 2nd comforter, which was a queen and also dirty, and a 3rd comforter, which was still a queen. All of this occurred around 10:30 at night, when I would have much rather been sleeping. The towels were dingy looking, and like sandpaper, the rain showers over the jacuzzi tubs were completely ridiculous and not practical at all, the dresser in the upstairs master is in horrible shape (I was scared to touch it for fear of it falling apart), and the WiFi was a cruel joke. When I spoke with a woman at the management company our second night, in reference to our comforter issue, I was very clear with her about all of the inconveniences we had experienced. I never received any sort of communication from management asking about our experience. The whole situation left the impression of complete indifference. There will never be a circumstance where I will use this management company again, and I would certainly never recommend them to anyone. "

Kind of a bummer. Otherwise the cabin is very nice and has a lovely view of the mountains."

We choose this cabin, and paid a premium, for the media room. We wanted to watch football games during the weekend and this room looks great on the website.

The cabin was very cute and in a great location. We appreciated the early check in. The biggest frustration was that a the first floor was extremely cold and unusable. We had to squeeze my two girls and my mom in the second floor bed. There needs to be a seperate hearing unit on the first floor. No matter how we adjusted the temperature on the other levels the first floor remained freezing. Because of that reason alone we would never stay there again. "

"Yes...I did not want to leave!
On a recent trip to the Smoky Mountains, we stayed at Elks Springs Resort's Hilltop Hideaway cabin. Their warning as you entered the resort: "You may not want to leave!" Truer words were never spoken. My first impression was that the cabin was very clean. My family of six stayed in this 10-person cabin. We had plenty of room. It had three floors and provided an excellent view of the Smokies, especially from the third floor. This would be a big plus during the seasons when there is less foliage on the trees. All the starter amenities Elks Springs promised were there. This conveniently got us through the first day as we got settled. I liked the fact, too, that it was away from the city, that it gave us that cabin feel throughout our stay. Since we are big on arts and crafts I appreciated the cabin being right in the middle of the Arts and Crafts community. On our first day there, the management gave us a courtesy call to assure that everything was fine. After spending our days taking in the Smokies, we looked forward to coming back and doing some relaxing. This was the perfect place to do it. We took advantage of the hot tub, home theater room, sauna, and pool table. Everything satisfied our needs although the home theater system may need a little upgrade to allow something more than just showing movies. All in all, I was very pleased with our cabin. Kudos to Elk Springs for providing an excellent place to stay. Would I recommend this property to a friend or relative? Absolutely!"

"Comfortable but convenient
The cabin was quite comfortable for us with 3 kids in tow. It was convenient to Gatlinburg and in a quiet 'neighborhood' of other cabins. There were a few things that we think needed to be addressed in order to make it a more enjoyable stay. Our fireplace would not stay lighted. Apparently the previous guest had issues as well. Someone came to repair it but the problem continued. (Contacting the rental company involved a bit of time on hold or leaving messages). While the media room is a great idea and a favorite area for our kids, it only works if you bring your own dvds or make a run to RedBox. At the very least have the ability to watch TV on the projection screen or movies on hand. Or possibly inputs on for the many devices people have now like Apple TV, fire stick, etc... we would consider staying her again with a few improvements. "

"Never Ever Again. Horrible Stay and Here's Why:
Nothing worked as it should from the front door that was like a rocket science project to lock to the Home theater room that played movies with no sound (what was the point???). The "customer service reps" were 100% no help 100% of the time (cannot stress that enough), from the beginning of the process they were unpleasant and unnecessarily difficult. The location was miserable from being up a gravel hill that was a nightmare to drive up in the pouring rain to being located in a desolate place where all the roads leading back to civilization were treacherous to drive-- and in all those nonsensical emails mgmt sent, not one mention of this, well, that's an imp. thing to mention!! The noisy neighbors with their motorcycle gang and dogs were ridiculous and it sure didn't help to have no drapes/curtains in the livingroom, never heard of such. The cleaning people cleaned minimally, the linen was old and full of lint, the plates and glassware were not clean and they had the nerve to leave an envelope for a tip as if enough wasn't paid already for this miserable experience. So, no, I would not recommend this place to anyone. "

"Might try a different cabin next time
We didn't realize that you could only park at the bottom level of this cabin and had to carry luggage and groceries up to the main level. The 2 master bedrooms both had incredibly hard mattresses (and we like a very firm mattress) however, these were hard as rocks so were very uncomfortable to sleep in. We picked this cabin for the theatre room (which we were unable to use the first night due to some wiring issues that were fixed the 2nd day), and the hot tub, Jacuzzi's and sauna. The hot tub never got "hot" like it was supposed to be so we never used it. Tried one of the identical Jacuzzi's and found it dangerous to get in and out of (normally, a Jacuzzi has a handle near by for safety reasons), therefore, it was only used the one time. Tried to use the sauna and it also didn't get as hot as a sauna should. Overall, it was a nice place but the execution of the amenities was a fail."

Elk Springs resort is top notch. The cabins are lovely and very well maintained, inside and out. The cabin was super clean, which to me besides location is the top requirement.

There is lots to do in Gatlinburg and it's the best hiking vacation we have ever done; countless of incredibly beautiful hiking trails in the area. Most very challenging.

There are other cabins in this area, but plenty of space in between each one on the hill. Everyone had their own space and then some. The only complaint we had is that we didn't spend enough time at the cabin. We were out every day horse back riding, hiking, or shopping. We plan to return and never leave the cabin. "

"great cabin nice location
Cabin was super clean and features were plenty like home theatre, hot spa, dry Sona room, pool table, large bunk bed, etc. We enjoyed our stay and kids had real fun. Location was very close to art and craft community and 15 min away from downtown in secluded area. We knew what we signed up when we chose in Elk resort community. If you are looking for an adventurous cabin stay with no cabin around you with fantastic mountain view, look elsewhere not here. "

"Hilltop Hideaway
We had a total of 4 adults and 3 kids staying at the Hilltop Hideaway. The kids loved the bunk beds and movie room. The location is excellent and convenient to Gatlinburg with a grocery store very close to the cabin. We will definitely consider staying here again in the future."

"A Great Family Vacation
Excellent week in a great vacation house. Elk Springs is a nice cabin-only resort, house didn't give us the feeling like we were in someone's house and afraid to touch anything, yet well stocked. Great customer service beginning with a call to check in with us shortly after arriving. We highly recommend Elk Springs for a family vacation. Next door to Gatlinburg and Great Smokey Mountains National Park."

"Almost perfect
Only thing I would add is more towel pegs in the bathrooms. One isn't enough. Check in was so convenient, great cabin."

"Great Family Vacation Spot
Seven of us spent a week at Hilltop Hideaway and had an amazing time. The amenities of the house added to our mountain experience. The view was amazing and the staff couldn't be more helpful. We had some issues with bugs and an exterminator was sent out that same day. Our only complaints - and they are minor- are that we could have used more towels and additional paper towel and dishwasher detergent. This was the only rental property we've stayed at that was lacking both. In addition to needing some new carpet, the house was great. "

"Great experience!
We travelled to Gatlinburg for a long weekend, and had a great time! Only problem was we couldn't stay longer! The cabin was very nice. It appeared to be one of the more secluded cabins (off to the side a bit more than some of the others) which we enjoyed. The cabin was clean and appeared to be well maintained. A short drive to downtown Gatlinburg, which was nice! The Company even called over the weekend to make sure we were enjoying our stay and everything met our expectations. Overall, great experience, and we will definitely go back!"

"Great Spring Break!
We stayed 4 nights at the lovely Hilltop Hideaway with our 2 children and their 2 friends. Such a great experience. Everything was spotless and in great condition...true cabin luxury! Just a couple of things to note for future guests. 1. The photo online shows 6 chairs in the media room but there were only 5. We had 6 guests total so it would have been nice to have a chair for each person to enjoy our nightly movies. I called to request an additional chair but one was never delivered. We made it work though...just be aware if this is important to you. 2. It's a true cabin and the walls (or floors rather) are very creaky so you can definitely hear others walking above you. It didn't bother us at all but just make note if this is important to you. We had an amazing time and would book with Elk Springs Lodge again in a heartbeat. Location was excellent to all Gatlinburg activities...best of both worlds, nice quiet relaxation at the cabin and all tourist activities you could want just a short 10 minute drive away. Loved that the Food City is so close too!! Made for easy grocery shopping and preparing meals in the cabin! "

"Enjoyable cabin
The cabin was very nice, a little hard to get to in the snow. Layout was good, kids room was on the first floor which was a bit colder than the rest of the house. Only complaints were the hot tub was not cleaned off and we had to clear off the snow to get in, and the movie room was not the same one pictured. Enjoyed the cabin, the pool table, the grill, hot tub was awesome once we got in it. All around great stay. Sound travels extremely well in this cabin though! Thin walls! "

"Sister's Retreat
My five sisters and I had a wonderful weekend stay at the Hilltop Hideaway cabin at this resort. It was in a beautiful location with a gorgeous mountain view. Everything inside the cabin was clean, updated, and ready for our fun weekend. It had all the comforts of home. Unlike a regular hotel room with little space to move, all six of us lounged between three floors with more than enough room to spare. This was also my first time experiencing the virtual check-in and check-out. It was great to just arrive at the cabin and let ourselves in and when it was time to check-out, just call in and we were on our way back home. Management called to welcome us and checked on us during our stay. The cabin was easy to find and I was very happy to see that it was private, but there were other cabins around us in view. So we were not alone in the woods. Being six women, the best part of the trip was we were only a few minutes away from great shopping, museums, shows and food. It was an excellent trip. We are now in the process of planning a time our entire family can visit. I have recommended this resort to family and friends. "

"Family Getaway
Loved the cabin, very clean and made use of all of the amenities. Great location for getting into town quickly. The only thing I would say is that the location of the hot tub on the deck is not ideal and the water in it was overflowing to the lower lever by the doorway. This is our second time staying at Elk Springs Resort and we will be back for a third. "

"Beautiful getaway
We arrived when it was dark and it was very difficult to find the cabin. An actual address to our cabin as opposed to the resort entrance would have been nice. We just kept pausing outside each cabin trying to find the name of our rental.
The only problem worth noting was that the heating in the unit was very unbalanced. The basement bedroom was frigid, but the top floor bedroom was roasting. At the risk of sounding like Goldilocks, the main floor bedroom was just right. Bring extra blankets for the basement dwellers. There was a 15 degree difference between the basement at 63 and the top floor at 78 degrees.
The views were spectacular and the cabin was comfortable. We loved having our Thanksgiving dinner overlooking the mountains.
There are only 5 movie theater seats unlike the photo so we had to pull in a regular chair when we wanted to watch a movie together.
If you plan on doing serious cooking, you probably will want to bring some of your own gadgets. The kitchen is appointed with the basics, but for example the biggest pot had no lid and there was only one dish that could go in the microwave. "

"overall wonderful experience
The house was beautiful.Although there were 2 problems upon arrival, they were resolved in a timely manner. The downside..(reasons why i wont return) is for 2 reasons..1. Too far from town. 2. Too many cabins in sight. I thought by the description that there was only 1 other cabin in our area..maybe an advertising "stretch" to make it seem more private than it is. Your cabins are beautiful..if only location was different..thought the price was definitely more than the house was worth..especially with the little soaps and minimal little perks provided."

"Top Notch Resort
The Hilltop Hideaway and Elk Springs Resort exceeded our expectations. The cabin was spotless and they were quick to respond the one time we had an issue with the Jacuzzi. I will be staying there again with my family."

"Nice, but definitely not perfect....
Hilltop Hideaway was nice, but based on the amount of money we paid to stay there, I was disappointed. When we first arrived, we notified the main office right away that one of our toilets did not flush properly, and the hot tub was leaking. Repair persons came within a couple hours, but they both basically said there was nothing they could do right away and we would have to live with it. Living with a toilet that will not flush for four nights was not something I was really happy about. Also, not a big deal, but the middle drawer in the master bedroom dresser was missing. It just added to our impression that this was *not* a luxury cabin and details were not important to the staff. Finally, the TVs in every room seemed quite small for the spaces (except for the theater room of course).
On the plus side, the beds were very comfortable, the location was convenient to Gatlinburg, and the cabin was generally clean. The showers were also awesome. Our kids enjoyed the pool table in the loft, but I would recommend a cabin with the pool table on the bottom floor. Every time they dropped a pool cue or a ball went off the table, it was extremely loud throughout the rest of the house. The kids also enjoyed the theater room.
All in all, it was a nice cabin, but for the price, I expected much more. If we ever come back to the area, I will probably look for another resort. "

"Hilltop Hideaway
I felt that the property was slightly misrepresented. I did not consider it "luxury". The linens need to be upgraded, and the beds were very sloppily made. It was a very nice cabin, and could easily be made more "luxurious" with a few added amenities and thorough cleaning, including the furniture."

"Hilltop Hideaway
We stayed at Rascals Retreat last time and it was great. The Hilltop Hideaway left something to be desired. When we first arrived there was urine on the downstairs toilet seat and hair in the shower. In the daylight you could see dust and hair along all the corners and walls out to about 2" from the wall. It appears they only clean the main floors and not along the edges. There were white stains on 3 of the blankets and more hair on the comforter. (I am hoping it was just soap that didn't get rinsed off.) The washing machine only worked for 2 loads of clothes and then quit working and the dishwasher was the loudest one I had ever heard. I also wish we would have asked for a floor plan. With 2 children under 3 there is a lot of packing. The main living area is on the second floor so everything had to be carried up and down the stairs. It wasn't all negative though. The view was nice and it was a quiet stay. Overall if it had been clean we would have been okay with everything else. I would have mentioned these problems to management and I would have hoped they would have taken care of them. Unfortunately my wife took the calls from Elk Springs and she didn't want to complain. "

"Not Bears, Bugs!!!
I mean it was great location and cabin with awesome features but the cabin was not clean or the hot tub. Three family members got bacteria infections and rashes on their skin. A lot of electronics were broke ....but most of all there too many bugs. Different kind! Every hour on the hour. Like I said on my survey, maintenance was fast at getting there .....they justjust needed pest control and they needed to clean up. "

"Fun, family vacation
We had a great time. The cabin was beautiful, very clean and well kept. Nice to have 3 bedrooms and 3 baths on 3 different floors. Theater room was great but one chair had been removed because it was broken and was not replaced for our whole week's stay. Otherwise, very responsive to calls. I would stay with Elk Springs again. "

"Hilltop Hideaway
Excellent place for a family vacation! It was a beautiful, quiet location with a great view. We enjoyed every moment. Our only issue was with what we thought to be tiny centipedes that appeared on the deck and in bathrooms. I am sure this was just an issue in wooded areas."

"Spectacular cabin!
From the moment we arrived at the cabin, it was breathtaking! The cabin was very clean, the amenities were awesome and the view was just heavenly!! The staff there was incredible. Although we never once saw them, they called the day after we arrived just to check and make sure we were having a good time. I would come here every year!"

"Perfect family reunion spot!
The house was everything we wanted, ages 4 to 64! Our group of 40 chose this resort because of the multiple houses within close proximity. The beds were very comfortable; we made every use of the hot tub, sauna, Jacuzzi, theater room, and porch. The staff was prompt with requests. Would love to return and just spend more time at Hilltop Hideaway. We loved it. Cozy yet spacious."

"Great Stay at "The Hideaway!"
We really enjoyed our 2 days stay at Hilltop Hideaway. The cabin was very clean, and had all of the ammenities we needed. The view was spectacular and it was so relaxing to just sit on the deck and relax in the rocking chairs...and later in the hot tub! The home theatre was a real treat. Shopping was close by. It was a great visit! We'll be back!"

"Very nice
The cabin was very nice. It had 3 floors with a bedroom on each floor. The check-in was easy. We had an issue with the theater system and it was fixed quickly. It was a very comfortable place to stay."

"Shrimpin in Gatlinburg
Hilltop Hideaway was exceptional in every way. What other ammenaties other than a butler could you ask for?
The flat screens should be bigger in bedrooms and especially in living room. Also need under cabinet lights in kitchen."
