  "Smokey Mountain Vacation"

  Our stay at Hawks Vue was very nice and relaxing. We didn't have any problems with anything on our stay there. We enjoyed playing pool and watching tv. it has a great open floor plan. It also has a… nice porch to sit on. There are other cabins next to it but the way they are positioned you have plenty of privacy. The view is very nice but to get to this cabin it is a little far out on some country roads that are curvy. We would stay there again if it's available in the future.

  "Beautiful Hawks Vue"

  It was AWESOME! Wish we could've stayed longer. Customer service and needs were met anytime we needed and questions were answered right away. Quiet, privacy was great, and watching the sun rise was be…autiful! Roads windy but overall it was wonderful! Highly recommended to stay here.

  "Beautiful View!"

  This was our second stay with Elk Springs. We have been highly satisfied both times. This cabin is beautiful. I chose this one for the views and I was not disappointed! The cabin was clean and everyth…ing worked as it should. Our family of 8 had the best vacation ever! Loved the deck. Love the ease of checking in, not having to go to an office for check in, they send you the door code and you can go straight to your cabin when it is ready. We would definitely recommend Elk Springs resort cabins!

  "The Perfect Getaway"

  Initially my family booked 3 nights for our stay and as soon as we found our location and entered the cabin we called to book another night. The cabin was very clean, private, and had a beautiful vie…w with many options for relaxing. My only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. We accidentally locked ourselves out of one of the bathrooms and maintenance was there within a half hour to open the door for us and give us sightseeing suggestions. Everyone was helpful and friendly. The kitchen also had everything you could need to cook any meal throughout the day. Just bring groceries and you're ready to go!

  "Hawk's Vue"

  This cabin was very nice. The highlight was the amazing view! Absolutely gorgeous. A little far from town, but not too bad. Very secluded. The cabin was clean and nice, but definitely not what I… would call "luxury." While everything looked really nice, you could tell most of it (furniture, TV, kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures) were done pretty cheap.

  Thank you for your business and for your feedback. Each of the cabins that we manage are individually owned. The owner has plans to do some upgrades in the future. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay overall and yes, those views are pretty amazing!

  We had a wonderful experience. The cabin was far enough away from the city that we could enjoy the outdoors, but close enough that we could go into the city to explore.

  "Great Cabin Rental"

  Overall our experience with this cabin was great! We booked only a couple of weeks before coming yet were able to find this cabin available with most of the amenities that are important to us. We va…cation quite often in the Smokey Mountains and always get a cabin to stay in. Most important to us is that the cabin must have wonderful mountain views. We also desire as much privacy as possible. This cabin was different in the fact that the front of the cabin had the deck with the mountain view and it was indeed a great view! As far as privacy goes, this cabin is located in a cul-de-sac on top of a mountain, so while there are several other cabins including one on one side, we found it to be quite private. Everything was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was nice. Drive up to the cabin was not too bad at all, but winding & a little tedious after dark.

  "Beautiful setting"

  We loved the location of the cabin but beware of lack of cell phone reception getting there especially if it's dark, misty raining and you're driving those windy roads all alone then it can be pretty …scary and easy to get lost! . Stunning views (when the cloud lifted, it rained most of the time we were there). Cabin was very clean inside and out and well equipped except for a lack of kettle. Beds all comfortable except for pull out one in living room. Loved the hot tub and sitting on the deck with the gorgeous views. Big complaint would be that we couldn't get any sleep the 1st night cause the sound of the rain on the metal roof and coming down the down pipes was so irritating and loud particularly in the upstairs bedroom!! I would give this place 5 stars had it not been for the rain noise but it's getting 3 cause if I can't sleep it's not the relaxing vacation we needed.

  We appreciate your business and for taking the time to give us this feedback. Please understand, we cannot control the weather or the amount of cell reception you receive in the mountains. We will look into adding a kettle to our kitchen inventories in the future.

  "Great cabin. Awesome view"

  We stayed at Hawk's Vue over Thanksgiving and it was wonderful. The view was unobstructed and amazing. Cabin very clean with updated kitchen and appliances. Had a small glitch getting the door code to… work and the Internet but the staff was on it immediately. Looking forward to our next trip down. We traveled with two boys 10 and 14 and they loved the pool table!

  "Hawks Vue"

  The cabin had a great view. We enjoyed our vacation at Hawk's Vue. We have stayed at Elk Springs Resort for seven years now. We enjoy staying on the main resort property more but everything was still nice.

  Manager Response:

  Stephanie, we certainly appreciate your business for the past seven years! Customer satisfaction is very important to us and your feedback helps us to improve our services. October is always a busy season for us with the tourists coming here to view the beautiful fall foliage. If you would like to stay on the main resort for your next stay, please be sure to book as far in advance as possible to ensure you get the location you desire. Thank you again for your repeat business! We look forward to your next trip to The Great Smoky Mountains.

  "Hawks Vue rental"

  great location, view, experience. Annoying that the Resort people came at 9am to change the batteries in the door knob

  Manager Response:

  Thank you for your review Brittany. Our system is set up to alert us when the batteries are low in the door locks and we have a small window of opportunity to change these out so that you don't get locked out of your cabin. We can track this in our computer system and this whole process took from 9:54 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. to complete. We appreciate your understanding regarding this minor but necessary inconvenience.

  "Great Mountain View"

  It was gorgeous! The entire cabin was beautiful and there was so much room for everyone! Waking up to the view of the mountains was amazing. However, the mattresses on the pull out couches were very t…hin and uncomfortable so we had to combine the two onto one bed. The pillows were also too soft/small so I'm glad I brought my own since I'm so picky. Amazing experience overall!

  Manager Response:

  Thank you Danielle. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the cabin and the views. The sofa sleeper mattresses are much thinner than a regular mattress so that the mechanism can be easily folded up when not in use. We are sorry that you were disappointed by this. For that reason, most of our guests use these mainly for children to sleep on.

  "Great Experience at Hawk's Vue"

  We stayed at Hawk's Vue for the better part of the week and absolutely LOVED it. The cabin was just as advertised. I loved the mountain views while my kids enjoyed the pool table and other amenities…. The cabin was clean and had all the items we needed for a perfect stay in the Smoky Mountains. We would absolutely stay there again and again and again!

  "A Fabulous Stay!"

  For a large family of 7 it is difficult for us to be able to take a vacation all together. Elk Springs Resort gave us a wonderful family experience in an absolutely beautiful cabin. The view of the mo…untain from the living area was fantastic. What a treat it was to be able to have stayed at such a place! The cabin was in great condition and perfectly clean and well prepared upon our arrival. It's just a short drive to the Smoky Mountain National Park and even shorter drive to downtown Gatlinburg. A great place to explore! Definitely would love to return and highly recommend this cabin and Resort to others!

  "A wonderful view at Hawks Vue"

  The stay at Hawks Vue was amazing! After the second time navigating the road to the home... it was such a beautiful drive full of winding roads (barely enough room for 2 cars to pass though, but that… was the purpose of being in the mountains)! The home was very accommodating, roomy and cozy! The view from the loft bedroom was like looming at a painting! We will definitely be back soon!

  "Fantastic view and quite setting"

  Hawks Vue cabin sits on the mountainside with a view of the beautiful Smokey Mountain National Park to greet you. We loved the peacefulness but yet close to arts and crafts community. Just a short dr…ive to Gatlinburg downtown. The cabin was great and we would love to come back for a longer stay next time. Directions to the cabin were good but definitely get there before dark if you are unfamilar with the area. Keep the directions in the car with you or you can easily forget a turn onto the right road since you have a few roads to turn onto to get to the cabin. Beatuiful area, beautiful cabin, and beautiful weather couldn't ask for more than that we had a great stay!

  "Nice cabin with nice view!"

  This is our second time renting from Elk Springs. We liked this cabin a lot. It's in the arts & crafts area. It had a beautiful view from the front of the cabin. It's in a neighborhood with other …nice rental cabins, but the area is very quiet and not to hard to get to. The only cabin really close to us was separated by a sliver of trees on a high natural wall of dirt, so although it was right next door it still provides privacy. The only problem we had was that our security code did not work at first, but this was fixed in a timely manner. I would recommend this cabin, especially if you want to spend a lot of time in the arts & crafts area.

  "Perfect Family Get-Away!"

  We booked this cabin at the last minute, got in the car and drove!!! It was a perfect 3-day, 2-night getaway. Beautiful accommodations! My nine-year-old discovered that he LOVES pool, and my 13-year…-old took off, exploring before the car was even in park. So much to do!! Close to Gatlinburg and touristy things, and a little bit farther to white water rafting and hiking to Midnight Hole. We will be back!
