  "Great experience, had no issues at all!"

  We rented this cabin at the end of February 2017 and had a blast. Had no issues at all with anything. Everything was very clean and organized when we got there, and everything worked as expected. Woul…d highly recommend to anyone interested in the cabin, best experience I've had.

  "Heaven Away From Home"

  The views were simply breathtaking and the home was extremely spacious, almost over accommodating for our group. We spent so much time enjoying each other in the common room that we hardly had time to… enjoy the extra amenities like the theater room. This place doesn't disappoint.

  "The Great Escape"

  As we ventured up the mountain, we were unsure what awaited our family! In true Elk Springs' style, we were amazed and excited to see the Amazing Views Cabin! It was spacious, well equipped, and a spe…ctacular retreat for our group of 13! The kitchen was well stocked! The theater put us to sleep on several occasions! Just being there was peaceful and tranquil! A great escape!

  "Wedding Retreat"

  My fiance (at the time) and I rented several cabins from Elk Springs for our large families to enjoy the beautiful and majestic views of the mountains as they came to celebrate our wedding! They were …extremely impressed with the attention to detail, cleanliness, and most of all the views from the cabin that Elk Springs offers! Thank you Elk Springs for spoiling our families and giving them a mini vacation.

  "It was all we hoped for..."

  Beautiful cabin with really amazing views wherever you look. It was exactly as described, secluded, very clean and well maintained. My family spent Christmas at this wonderful cabin and everyone enjoy…ed themselves immensely. The customer service was outstanding, we planned to grill for dinner and realized the propane tank was out, notified management and we had another propane tank in less than 30 minutes...dinner saved! I would highly recommend Amazing Views Retreat, my family would definitely stay here again.

  "Amazing Views...Awesome Experience!"

  We chose Amazing Views Retreat for our daughter and son-in-law's wedding ceremony. The retreat was absolutely perfect for our family...and was beyond our expectations! The views from the multiple deck…s were beyond amazing and served as a spectacular backdrop for the wedding! We loved the privacy of the location, as well as the close proximity to attractions, stores and restaurants. Thank you!!!

  "Amazing Views Retreat, repeat customer."

  Excellent cabin, perfect stay. This management company has repeatedly delivered for us. Aside from the well groomed, amenity rich cabin they handle hiccups professionally as well. The outdoor propa…ne grill was not performing well (burner elements were corroded and needed replacing) and I complained about it. That same afternoon a new grill showed up. Presto! Thanks, Elk Springs, for another good vacation.

  "Epic guys weekend!"

  We had 11 high school and college buddies get together. The cabin was secluded, great for a campfire, awesome kitchen and main room, great views to grill and hang out on the balcony....overall such a… great venue. And it is just down the road from a nice golf course! Elk Springs Resort's customer service was excellent as well.

  "A Family Vacation to Remember"

  My family and I had a wonderful time in the Amazing Views cabin at your resort. Your ad photos were spot on! The view is simply incredible. The cabin was clean and welcoming. It was spacious enough fo…r both adults and kids (10 of us) to have our own space for awhile. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, the arcade, and billiard table. Highlight was a large bear emerging from the underbrush in the backyard responding to our grandson's taped animal distressed calls. WOW! A full moon made it perfect. We have memories to last a lifetime!

  Thank you Johanna! It sounds like you made the perfect cabin choice for your family to enjoy an incredible vacation!

  "Gorgeous views! Beautiful cabin!"

  The name of the cabin "Amazing View Retreat" is appropriately named. The views are stunning! Amazing property in a great, convenient location. It felt like home away from home. Will definitely visit a…gain. Elk Springs Resort made the whole process effortless.

  "Awesome Spring Break"

  We had a wonderful time at the Amazing Views Retreat. Perfect for two or even three families to share, the views are the best, and the house is amazing. The only problem was that the kids didn't want …to leave! We look forward to making this an annual destination for our family.

  "Definitely an Amazing View!"

  We went there for my sister's 30th bday and we loved the cabin! Plenty of space and it was equipped with everything we needed. We played crud with the pool table and even jumped in the hot tub in 18 …degree weather. We're planning on coming back next Summer.

  "Great Family Getaway!"

  Amazing Views Retreat lived up to its name. The cabin is perched on the mountain side with amazing views of the surrounding mountain range. In addition, there was plenty of privacy from nearby cabins… and enough space in the cabin for our large family to kick back and relax and enjoy each other's company. I would highly recommend this cabin!

  "The Great Vacation Get a Way"

  We enjoyed the property, it was very spacious, beautiful woodwork, enjoyed sitting out on the covered porch. The mattress was very comfortable. Lots of extra blankets if needed. I wish we had spent… more time at the home and less time fighting traffic in Pigeon Forge. Overall we had a great time.

  "Small things make a difference..."

  First I'd like to say this property is phenomenal. My family go to the smokies frequently and stay at a variety of cabins and I don't think there is one better than this at any price. The combinatio…n of the view, space, and upscale amenities make this retreat a steal. Some small things kept me from giving this 5 stars. The ice maker not functioning properly was not that big of a deal. Smaller things like only 2 trash bags for the kitchen, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, etc were bigger deals for us. I didn't expect to have waste time making an extra trip to a grocery store for a whole package of garbage bags and toilet paper for 3 nights stay in a place this high end. If I was staying a week I may be able to understand, but if you are staying more than one night be sure to pack those items and bring them. The place was immaculately clean and some terrific memories were made here. I would stay again.

  "Beautiful view and beautiful cabin"

  Amazing Views cabin provided us with an awesome family christmas. We travel every year from GA, AL and KY to meet for a family christmas and this is by far the best cabin we have stayed at yet. Very b…ig and provided plenty of room for 12 people. The kitchen was very big and spacious and made our big family meals more easy to cook. Little disappointed they don't put up a tree for christmas, but we were able to pack one in the car and threw it up. The drive to the cabin was a little scary. Spun tires on the hills in just the rainy wet roads. On the morning of our 5k it was sleeting and it made us all too scared to try and drive it at 5 am so we missed our race. That was a bummer! Other then that we had a blast in this cabin from eating tons of food, to watching movies in the theater room, to having donkey kong competitions on the arcade.

  "Amazing Views!!! "

  The view from the deck of this property is amazing! My family and I enjoyed our stay at the Amazing Views Retreat. The media room was a hit with the kids, the large kitchen was easy to cook in, and w…e all loved the huge windows and views. The property is private and convient to a grocery store and activities. We would definately recommend this property to friends and family.

  The property is situated on a beautiful mountain side on the north edge of the Natl Park; peaceful, very private, spectacular view (better view than Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge). Cabin was spacious, we…ll designed, with many modern conveniences including a great theater room!

  "Amazing Views Retreat is ....amazing!"

  Beautiful view and super nice, upscale house. The express check-in was great....Elk Springs gives the door code and a visit to their office is not necessary. There is a good sized area for parking …several cars. We didn't have internet service when we arrived and were unable to get any channels on the TV downstairs. After a call to the office, a quick response was made by Jeremy, a very nice young man, who replaced the modem. Internet worked the remainder of the week, although a bit slow. The owner of the cabin also showed up to fix the TV and also spent some time talking with our group.
  
  The cabin furnishings are upscale and the kitchen is very well stocked for a group. I've read other reviews which mentioned the ice maker in the frig works sometimes and not others. Same story for us. It would be nice with a house that large if there was a larger frig.
  
  We did get to watch a bear in the yard below the deck on 2 occasions. Great week!
  
  I would definitely rent this lovely house again and recommend it highly.

  "(Mostly) Wonderful Experience at the Amazing Views Retreat"

  This was our second stay at the Amazing Views Retreat, and we fully intend to stay there again in the future. We truly love the house and the experience. My one sour note was the Internet connection…. The house does have a DSL Internet connection, as described on the website, but the actual connection is HORRIBLE. I work from home and, thus, usually have to work while on vacation, as I did this time around. If I was able to maintain a connection for longer than 10 minutes, I considered that a success, and that's just unacceptable. I was late submitting the final grades for a college English course that I teach because the Internet connection crapped out for most of the hour before the grades were due. I couldn't maintain a connection long enough to submit anything. Obviously, that's disappointing. For most people, a poor high-speed Internet connection might not be a big deal while on vacation, but I'm sure it must matter to a few people other than me. Other than that, we couldn't have been happier with the management or owner, who had to come to the house to fix an air conditioning problem, which he did the same morning we called Elk Springs to notify them of the issue. The views from the decks are not to be believed, and the house, as a whole, is just incredibly roomy and comfortable. Love, love, love it!

  "Words Can't Describe"

  Words can't describe how my family and I enjoyed Amazing Views. Yes its WAYYYYYY up, but its gorgeous. The bedrooms were very nice and comfy, the kitchen was very spacious and had every cooking pot/ut…ensil you could ever need. The movie room was exceptional....i fell asleep in there a couple of nights. The only problem that I did have was the washer machine is very slow in washing clothes...other than that I give the stay a 100! We will be back!

  "Truly Amazing Views and House!"

  The house and remarkable mountain views were truly spectacular. The resort provided us with directions for a "back" way to get to the house, and we utilized them in order to avoid the Pigeon Forge tra…ffic--very helpful and easy! I plan to rent the house again in the future, several times, if possible. Not necessarily the best house for people with mobility problems (elderly or children younger than 3-4 years old) because of the steps, but that's true of most multi-level homes. The house was generally clean, but the light fixtures and stove top and floors under furniture needed to be cleaned. There were also a few dead bugs behind doors in the downstairs bedrooms. Basically, the dusting and vacuuming needs to be a little more thorough every few weeks (much like my own house). Also, there were several burned-out light bulbs, inside and outside. These are minor complaints, though. We had a wonderful, wonderful time!
