    We had a small family reunion with my son, his son and family. Having a cabin kept us all together and really had a good time. I live in Michigan, my son here in Gatlinburg and my grandson's family is from Iowa. This cabin was a great place to stay in, it had everything we needed. Thank you

    Headline: We enjoyed the location of this property very much. We made use of the screened in porch every morning. Having the cree Positive: Loved the location. The Creekside location was great. Very close to everything we needed but still felt private. Had everything we needed for our stay. Negative: Needed a little more cleaning. There were cob webs hanging from the ceiling lights and in the corners. Need a shelf in the shower While I love the idea of a fire in the fireplace I hated that it smelled like it Would have loved to have been able to sit outside on the swing but it was broken Needs a walkway to the kitchen door. It was raining so bad when we got there and it was muddy walking to the door

    We really enjoyed staying in the Creekside Ponderosa Cabin. Cabin is clean, pet friendly, walking distance to downtown Gatlinburg. The Website was also user friendly. Yes, We will rent this cabin again.

    The cabin was just what we were looking for - love the imagination this cabin brings (due to the age) and would love to know the history. Love that it had some privacy -unlike the cabins in most resorts . The beds were very comfortable Enjoyed listening to the creek at night. Would like to have a longer stay in this cabin in the future Definitely will return

    We’ve stayed with Diamond mountain for over 15 years and have never been disappointed. First time in this cabin and it didn’t disappoint either. It’s old but totally remodeled. There are three twin beds upstairs in a really cute loft and one bedroom downstairs with a full bed. The shower is huge. It has a wood burning fireplace. My husband and I took my 81 yr old mom and our dog. This was perfect for us. The yard is big for the dogs or grilling, and a nice creek that runs near the cabin. The only thing missing were a dishwasher.

    Great location. It’s so close to everything in Gatlinburg! Sits right beside a pretty creek. We really enjoyed our stay.

    Our family had a great thanksgiving vacation at this home. I love the quiet cabin experience yet walking distance to all of Gatlinburg! We hope to come again!
