  "Delightful Mountain Retreat"

  The property is in a fantastic location; far enough away to feel like an escape, but close enough to attractions that a trip to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg isn’t inconvenient in the least. The c…abin is tastefully furnished, well-supplied, and wonderfully cozy. A well-maintained property where I would stay again without hesitation!

  "Wonderful Getaway "

  We loved the cabin. It was located in a serene community and contained all the amenities to provide comfort and relaxation. It is tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable! Not too far to get …to many things to do, including all the attractions in Pigeon Forge. We would definitely recommend the cabin and Elk Springs, provided outstanding customer service.

  "Definitely a "Sweet Retreat"!"

  We spent our 25th anniversary at Sweet Retreat. It was everything we had hoped for and more! The cabin was so clean and tastefully decorated. The view from the bedroom is incredible! The clouds in… and over the mountain were ever changing and we didn't want to leave after spending a week and waking up to a different view every morning. Elk Ridge Resorts was easy to work with and responded to our one maintenance issue immediately. The hot tub was leaking and they were able to get someone out to fix it within an hour even though it was the weekend. We spent every evening in the hot tub on the deck watching the stars. I would say the only downside to this cabin would be that it is in a neighborhood of cabins, so if you are looking for something isolated out in the woods, this cabin is not for you. Everything inside and out was so beautiful, though, that I would recommend giving it a try even if you thought you wanted isolation! When you are laying up in bed looking out the windows it feels like you are in the middle of nowhere!

  "Solo Get-A-Way"

  A Sweet Retreat was beautiful! It was very comfortable and has a TON of natural light that floods the entire cabin. It is nicely decorated and has a very welcoming/homey feel.
  
  The property c…an actually sleep 6 even though it is advertised as a one bedroom--there are two sleeper sofas..and two full baths.
  
  I'd highly recommend this cabin and will definitely stay here again. It's so close to all the action of Pigeon Forge and easy access to Gatlinburg. This is a gem!

  "Sweet Retreat"

  It was a very relaxing vacation, the cabin was wonderful. Would recommend to anybody. I prefer a bedroom that can be darkened and with this one being upstairs I was unable to do this but that is jus…t a personal preference of mine, nothing negative about the cabin.

  "Perfect Getaway!!"

  This cabin was the perfect getaway for our 3rd anniversary. When we first arrived, the cabin was very clean and there were plenty of basic toiletries ready. The two jetted tubs and outdoor hot tub wer…e both super relaxing, and the media room was awesome - perfect for a Netflix binge!
  One caution: the top level of the cabin where the bed is, there are no coverings on the windows. So if you intend to sleep in and can't sleep in the daylight, make sure to bring a sleep/eye mask.
  It was nice that this cabin was up into the mountains enough to feel secluded, but also not more than a 10 minute drive to Pigeon Forge dining and activities.
  Hoping to make it back before too long! :)

  "A Sweet Retreat, Indeed"

  This cabin was amazing!!!! It was in the perfect location for us, out of the hustle and bustle but close enough to everything too. IT WAS over the top gorgeous!!!! We didn't want to leave even after 4… nights. Elk Springs was wonderful to deal with. I loved their emails and their texts. They were always available and helpful. This property and this rental company gets a 100 from us. I have NO negatives and all positives!!!!! Thank you for a fabulous Spring Break!!!!

  "STILL WONDERFUL"

  We arrived to our Wears Valley cabin rental only 5 days after the Gatlinburg fires. We were worried about a smoke smell or dangerous conditions but our worries were quickly put to rest! While we didn'…t enter Gatlinburg the Great Smokey Mountains are as beautiful as ever! My husband and I enjoyed a PERFECT 25th wedding anniversary at a Sweet Retreat! The cabin was awesome, just as we've come to expect from Elk Springs Resort and the people of the community were great. We were thanked continuiously by people in the area from the grocery store and trolley drivers to the resort and restraunts for keeping our plans to spend our anniversary there! The views were amazing and the rains cleared the smoke smell in the areas we were in. God truely is good and while there was certainly devestation tothe area the resiliance of these people and this place speaks to their faith and Gods grace and protection for us! Can't wait to go back!

  Thank you for allowing us to be a part of such a wonderful celebration, Traci! We were honored to have you as our guest. We appreciate your kind words and support!

The natural beauty that we love to share with our guests is intact and as beautiful as before. We hope you will make plans to come back and visit often!

  "Great place"

  We had a great time at the cabin. It is just far enough away from the main strip of pigeon forge to make it feel secluded but only took about 5 min to get back to town

  For a first timer this cabin was exceptional. It was very peaceful, clean and I loved it. It was a great mini vacation for my fiancé and me for his birthday. I can not wait to come back.

  "Blizzard of 2016"

  Once we finally got to our cabin it was amazing!! The 13 hours we spend stuck in the parking lot that used to be Interstate 75 in Kentucky was not so amazing. The soak in the hot tub with the snow gen…tly falling was so worth it! Would love to come back!!

  Manager Response:

  Thank you for your review, Kara. We are glad that you were able to safely navigate your way through the snowstorm to arrive at your destination. Mother Nature has a way of just showing up when we least expect it and we have to make the most of it. After all of the stress with your drive, I am sure the hot tub was a welcome distraction! No matter how cold the air temperature is, that 104* hot tub water is just amazing! We hope you get the chance to come back and stay with Elk Springs Resort. Perhaps a fall trip would be perfect for enjoying the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains next time!

  "A Sweet Retreat "

  Cabin was very clean and in excellent shape. Really surpassed our expectations. It had plenty of towels and toilet paper, paper towels, soap, utensils, etc. My only complaint was the hot tub had an "H…L" error code, which apparently keeps it from ever getting hot. Would highly recommend making sure it works the first night rather than the last, like I did. But otherwise, would still recommend staying here.

  Manager Response:

  Thank you for your review Chris. An issue with your hot tub apparently occurred after you checked in. Our hot tubs are drained, sanitized and refilled prior to every check in and they are also tested to be sure they are working properly. We would have welcomed the opportunity to correct this issue for you while you were our guest. Our maintenance staff is on site and available up until midnight each night and can be dispatched to your cabin usually arriving within 30 minutes. Thank you for understanding that problems do arise and we are just a phone call away to resolve any issues during your stay.

  "Great Experience!"

  My wife and I stayed at the Sweet Retreat for 4 nights as we celebrated our anniversary. The home was true to the pictures on the website. The house was clean and modern, and we thoroughly enjoyed the… media room with a large TV, as well as the hot tub that is on the deck of the second floor. I would say the only negative of the home was that we thought we would be a bit more secluded from the other cabins. In reality, we were quite close, but it was still a great experience.
