| We were looking for a relaxing stay in the mountains. When we saw the strip in Pidgeon Forge we were worried that it would be more like a stay in Las Vegas. But the cabin is in the mountains and very private. We loved the peacefulness and our sons loved the pool table and loft. We would go back in a minute! |

We had a wonderful time at your cabin. My husband and I were just married 12-23-07 and we came here on our honeymoon. This was a beautiful place to spend our honeymoon. Cades Cove was BEAUTIFUL!! We visited Dollywood and other attractions. We enjoyed playing games when it was raining the other night. We hope to come back and stay again.

William and I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at your cabin this past weekend. It is absolutely beautiful! It is obvious you put a lot of thought and consideration into details when building/decorating it. It is simply gorgeous. I also wanted to compliment you on your web site, as the cabin is just as we had envisioned it to be after looking at the photos on your site. Also, thanks for being flexible in allowing us to stay the additional day. We loved it so much we didn't want to go home!
Thanks again for what is truly one of the most memorable trips we've taken. We are seriously considering making a trip to Little Pine Lodge a Christmas tradition!

The little pine lodge provided a great getaway after Thanksgiving for our family. Most of the leaves are gone from the trees but the scenery on the drive up was still beautiful. There was on the top of the mountain Friday morning as the rest of our family arrived! Our children loved the fireplace most of all and the loft! Pigeon Forge provided plenty of night time fun for the kids. The Miracle Theater performance was also wonderful. We look forward to coming back next year.

We had an amazing time at your cabin. The pool table, hot tub and surroundings were so fun. The only animal we saw skunk, but God showed his glory beautiful mountains and amazing scenery in the National Park. Thanks for allowing us to stay and providing all the amenities we needed and more. We recommend the dixie stampede for a fun night out with the family. We will be back!

This was our second stay at Little Pine, both to celebrate to celebrate to celebrate our anniversary. The cabin is just as wonderful, beautiful and relaxing as a year ago. We had such a wonderful time this week and will continue telling all our friends in central North Carolina about the Little Pine Lodge!

| The owner said we would enjoy this cabin if we wanted to get away from it all...boy was he right. My wife and I just wanted a few days away from it all and this little gem of a cabin fit the bill perfectly. It was fully stocked with all the necessary accessories to make the stay stress free. We were looking forward to visits from the wildlife we heard visited the cabin but only saw the racoon on the upstairs roof one night. The weather was great and we spent some time in Gattlinburg and Pigeon Forge to highlight our TN visit. We definately will come again as this rental was worth every penny and minute. |

To quote our 10-year old son, "This is the most awesome place we have ever stayed on vacation!" We did have a wonderful time- very relaxing. It was nice to come back "home" after a busy day. We spent 2 1/2 days in the national park. If anyone reading this has children, we recommend the Junior Ranger Program. We spent 2 great days at Dollywood Splash Country and went rafting on the lower Pigeon River (Smoky Mountain Outfitters Unlimited). We did have an exciting first day at the National Park. When we were driving a branch fell down and scratched the side of our van and took out our driver's side mirror! We even attended the Gatlinburg Midnight July 4 parade.
We had a great time. Your cabin is very nice. The Smoky Mountain National Park is amazing. God is an amazing creator! We could see his handywork everywhere.

Thank you for letting us stay. We really had a good time and enjoyed the cabin. The cabin is beautiful!! The cabin is conveniently located to everything! (P.S. If you are leaving here to go to Gatlinburg- Take the parkway- its a lot quicker and less traffic!) We Visited Cades Cove and saw a lot of bears and deer. We also played a lot of miniature golf. Our favorite places are Hillbilly Golf in Gatlinburg and Professor Hackers Lost Treasure in Pigeon Forge. The neighbors saw a bear in the backyard. We've seen turkeys and rabbits around the cabin, but we didn't see the well known raccoon! We enjoyed sitting on the porch playing cards. We look forward to coming back soon. We had an excellent time on our honeymoon! Thank You.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin. We were all tickled at how wonderful everything was. It felt so cozy and it was hard to leave. We do plan to come back. We saw a "big" bear the first day. That was fun!!! We also saw a wild turkey, raccoon, skunk and rabbits in the area and heard a pack of coyotes one night. Thanks again.

You'll never know how much fun we had while visiting your cabin. Honestly, we didn't want to go anywhere but stay here. We had everything we could need or want. We're very simple people and what we found here was what we needed: rest and relaxation. Our boys really enjoyed the pool table and the whirlpool. We do plan to come back and believe me, we will tell our friends about this great place.

Your cabin was the perfect destination for our honeymoon. We really enjoyed the park, driving on the curvy mountain roads and getting away from the flat and straight roads of central Illinois. Your cabin feels like home. We can't wait to come back!

I had a wonderful time. Me and my brother loved playing 8-ball. The outdoor jacuzzi was very relaxing. One night a raccoon got onto the roof and we could see it through the window. My, my dad and brother hiked 7.5 miles to Laurel Falls. In the drawer upstairs is the game National Parks Monopoly- thats extremely fun.
Hi- I'm the brother. I had an exciting time at the cabin. I saw a mom bear and two cubs. It was amazing! We played soccer outside the cabin in the cold rain then came inside and sat in the bathtub in the hot water with the jets on. One jet sprayed water in my face. It was funny!
We had a wonderful vacation here!

We had so much fun on this trip. What I loved most was we didn't have uncomfortable feeling like usual on vacation. We relaxed, played a lot of pool. We laugh now but we took a 3 hour trip to Cades Cove and then that night we found the short cut everyone had wrote about! For anyone who is reading this, if you wanna know the shortcut, read the "trash" on the side of the fridge. Thank you for letting us enjoy your cabin.

We had a wonderful time. The cabin is beautiful and very quiet. Had a little trouble getting to Gatlinburg the first time- ended up in Townsend. We saw some Elk but no bears!

We came here for our twenty-fifth wedding anniversary and had a wonderful time- loved the cabin. It was hard to leave here to go do the "tourist" things. We had a hard time finding a cabin that wasn't decorated tacky for romance- and finding a real wood fireplace. Thanks for it all!

First of all, I would like to thank Neal & Debbie for letting us rent their wonderful cabin. We got the pleasure of meeting them personally and I promise that they will go out of the way to make sure your stay is pleasant.
The first couple of days we went to Dollywood and enjoyed the Christmas plays and rode a few rides. Other days were spent at Maggie Valley, North Carolina and Cherokee, North Carolina.
Cades Cove has a lot of history and I suggest reading the book in the cabin about the rich history before visiting. Take at least half a day, saving the latter part of the day driving the loop and seeing lots of wildlife.
We had a bear visit us at the cabin one night and while playing pool upstairs, a raccoon had a visit on the roof by the windows.
Thanks again for the lovely stay and we look forward to a return visit.

The cabin is absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed being away from it all. It is very peaceful and has gorgeous scenery. We had a great time just hanging out and playing pool. We went to Cades Cove while we were her and were lucky enough to see a bear and three cubs. It was so relaxing; we had a wonderful time and plan to come back as soon as possible. Thank you so much for sharing your cabin with us.

We LOVED the cabin. It was great not to have to drive through the city in order to get to the park. We were close enough to town to go shopping but far enough away to not hear it or have to deal with the business. We even got to see a bear. It walked right in front of the cabin!!! We recommend the hike at Chimney Tops. Its a bit challenging, but it's definitely worth it. The view is amazing as long as you're not scared of heights. If you go, be sure to pack plenty of H20 (don't forget the camera either). -And yes, we the parents enjoyed it also. We hope to come back again sometime. Wonderful cabin!

We stumbled across your little cabin on the internet while searching for some affordable honeymoon options. I was a little doubtful however, as pictures can be deceiving. When we drove up to the cabin, I knew it was the real thing. We were elated to walk into the cabin to such a clean smell and interior. Our first full day we shopped at the outlet malls in Pigeon Forge and then went out to Gatlinburg. On our second day, we decided to do a whitewater rafting trip (which was a little disappointing), but we were cautious to get back to the relaxing atmosphere of this little cabin. Our only complaint is that we are unable to stay longer, because we have to get home and prepare for school to start up again. But we will most definitely be back!

The cabin was great. We really enjoyed our vacation week here. It was beautifully decorated and equipped with the items you need. We appreciate the thoughtfulness to include all the extra items (like salt & pepper, etc.) that might be needed. We loved the hot tub. That really spoiled me and I would love to have one at home. We loved the location and would love to return sometime. We will carry with us home many memorable moments from this vacation. Our greatest moment was our hike to Grotto Falls, where a bear and her two cubs came out into the path right in front and we got some really good photos to take home. It was awesome!

We loved the cabin. We are used to the woods and country, but we are not used to having no work or chores to do everyday. We really enjoyed our stay. We relaxed, we toured around, we ate and we had great quality family time. We did have one very exciting night; we had a big black bear pay us a visit on the porch. He was trying to get into the trash can, but he did not succeed. Thanls for your cabin; it a was home away from home (except for the bear).
