Our stay at Blake’s Place was very nice. The home was extremely clean, nicely furnished, very comfortable with plenty of things to do. It easy to find off of interstate and close to Pigeon Forge. It was so nice not to stay where the crowds were. The neighborhood was nice and quiet as well. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The house was clean and well-appointed, with all the necessities we needed for a comfortable visit. The location was great, nestled in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of parking available. The adults had fun in the game room, which kept everyone entertained for hours, and there was even a kids' corner for the little ones. We appreciated having lots of towels available, wonderful linens, super comfortable beds and lots of special touches Blake provided through the house. Blake’s hospitality was a 5 star experience! Highly recommend!

I stayed at this cabin with my two teenager boys and my 70 year old parents for a week. Everyone loved it. The cabin was charming with the best views of the mountain. Super clean, decorated with great taste, with ample supplies of linens, coffee, dish detergent, etc. Kids enjoyed a ton of fun playing pool and in the hot tub. My parents found the amenities great and loved cooking in the kitchen with a great view. Stephen would always respond to my questions right away, making the whole stay worry free. We would definitely rent this cabin again were we to return to the area. You won't be disappointed.

Stephen's property was absolutely amazing. Snuggled in Gatlinburg's mountainside, it was a pristine house with a resort-like feel. We were surrounded by nature, the neighborhood was very quiet, and we felt like we were in a five star location! Stephen also is a great host and ready to assist at a moment's notice. We would highly recommend this property or any other for which Stephen is the host!

This Gatlinburg Rooftop Retreat offered the perfect mountain getaway. The home was clean, spacious and beautiful. The mountain views offered from the rooftop are unbeatable. The road to the home is long and winding, but very driveable. We appreciated that the home was away from the congested strip of Pigeon Forge offering quiet. The kids loved the game room and we all enjoyed cooling off in the swim spa, but also relaxing in the jets of the attached hot tub. Stephen was very helpful answering questions before and during the stay. I would highly recommend this home for your family or group stay!

We stayed at the Rooftop Retreat during the 4th of July holiday week and had an amazing time! Traveled with 4 adults and 3 children (2, 6, 8). Stephen’s place is 10 minutes from the entrance to the Smokey’s, and the southwest end of downtown Gatlinburg - avoids all traffic coming down from Pigeon Forge! Our family loved Bennett’s Pit Bar-B-Que and Park Grill! 10 minutes from Gatlinburg Trail (easy 4 mile hike alongside the river, for the entire family), 30 minutes from Alum Cave Trail for more experienced hikers (12 mile round trip to Myrtle Point, and you want to arrive by 6:30AM to guarantee parking) and 1 hour from Cades Cove (recommend vehicle free Wednesdays ~5:00pm-8:00). We saw multiple bears at Rooftop and utilized all the amenities, but our favorites were the rooftop Spa, and North Clubhouse - the views were breathtaking! Finally, Stephen was VERY helpful and proactive in all his communications before and during the trip! We would love to book again in the future!
