Highly Recommended Cabin with Awesome Views

Gneed Knoxville, TN
Review Submitted: November 4, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My wife and I had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay at your cabin. The name of the Cabin, Above the Clouds, was very fitting for the weekend. Actually, many times we were momentarily "In the Clouds" which was an experience we have never had.

The cabin was exceptionally clean and had all the comforts of home. The location was perfectly situated between Townsend and Pigeon Forge which enables you to easily visit various areas, including Caves Code, in the Smokey Mountains.

The large wide screen television is larger than other cabins we have rented. This was important for us as we watch college football games on Saturday evenings.

Awesome Week

My family (wife, me, 7 year old son, 4 year old son and 1 year old daughter) had an incredible week at this cabin. We were looking for a place to get away and we definitely found it. We brought our food with us (although we picked up some cold groceries at Kroger - about 15 minutes away) and spent most of the week at the cabin. The swing set was perfect for the kids. The pool was cold, but we braved it for about an hour one day (late August). The porch swing and upstairs pool table got the most use. Picnicking in the park is about 15 minutes away. We also visited Cades Cove in the park and the aquarium in Gatlinburg. There were plenty of other things we could have done (hiking, white water rafting, tubing, miniature golf, go carts, shopping, etc.) , but we just enjoyed spending time together as a family in a house with lots of things to do. My wife and I used the main level bedroom and the kids stayed in the downstairs bedrooms (the boys took the bunk bed and the girl slept in the provided pack and play in the other downstairs bedroom). Be sure to check out the Facebook page for Above the Clouds for more pictures and info. The owner really cares about the property and was very concerned that we have a great time while we were there.

A wonderful spring break at Above the Clouds

Sean R. Asheville, NC
Review Submitted: April 24, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Our stay at Above the Clouds was wonderful! The cabin and all of the amenities are great. Our kids (3 and 6) loved all of the games and the playground and really enjoyed the log bunk beds. It is so peaceful and relaxing up there, it makes it hard to leave! The location is perfect for access to the National Park and is such a welcomed contrast to some of the more "touristy" locations close by. On that note, if you plan to go into Pigeon Forge (or even travel through there), you may want to schedule your trip around the "Rod Run" car show. We wasted a lot of our time stuck in bumper to bumper traffic.

Connie was such a great help from the beginning to the end. She even called during our stay to let us know that there would be some controlled burning on the adjacent mountains and helped us out with an alternate route to the National Park. Thank you Connie!

I would highly recommend Above the Clouds to anyone looking for a peaceful, relaxing getaway or for a wonderful family vacation like we had. We will be definitely be back!
Owner's Response: I'm always happy to tell people how to avoid the traffic !!!

Our family was one of the first to stay in the cabins of "Above the Clouds". From the kids to the grandparents, we were totally impressed. The cabin was truly a home away from home. It felt as though you could reach out and touch the clouds as they drifted by. Simply beautiful!

Our stay at Above the Clouds was wonderful! From the first time I spoke with Constance, until the day we left, our experience with Above the Clouds has been positive and good. The cabin is absolutely beautiful. No detail has been forgotten, all the way down to the binoculars. The views are stunning. Words cannot describe the magnificent views. Our family made unforgettable memories that will always be treasured. Thank you Constance!
Owner's Response: Thank you! Paul and I love to hear from our guests -- we visit our 2 cabins on Cove Mountain ridge several times a year to make sure that everything is there to make our guests feel right at home!

an extraordinary vacation destination

Review Submitted: August 25, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
I would recommend spending a week at this cabin to anyone. I have been to many different locations. London, Japan, St. Thomas USVI, Etc. A week at this cabin ranks up there, with any of my other travels. As we traveled down the mountain one day. We saw two cars before hitting the main road. We were joking, it must be rush hour. As that was the most traffic we had seen on those roads all week. Quite a relaxing week.

Owner's Response: Many folks who come to the Smokies try to avoid the "cliff hanger" cabins and really steep scary roads. Above the Clouds is set up on a ridge with awesome views, but it won't make you dizzy! My 88 year old Dad says it's the closest he'll get to heaven before he really gets there!

JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT AN AWESOME TIME WE HAD THIS PAST WEEK.
THE CABIN WAS INCREDIBLE. WE GOT TO THE CABIN JUST AS THE SUN WAS STARTING TO SET. MY INTENTION FOR THIS WEEK WAS FOR MY PARENTS TO SPEND SOME QUALITY TIME WITH MY CHILDREN AND THEY GOT THAT AND MORE. I WOKE UP EVERYDAY REFRESHED AT THE SIGHT OF GODS WORK PAINTED ACROSS THE SKY. THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR PLACE WITH US. IT WAS MORE THAN I COULD HAVE IMAGINED.

Connie,
I forgot to write in your guest book and tell you what a wonderful weekend both Rod and I had at your cabin. The weather and view was wonderful and the amenities worked out perfectly for us. We will definitely be back with our family. Thanks again!

Great Property!!!

BZ Chattanooga, TN
Review Submitted: March 22, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Above the Clouds exceeded our expectations in every way. The cabin is immaculate, the decor is beautiful, the furnishings are both unusual and comfortable, and the views are breathtaking. The cabin is easily accessible to those with wheelchairs (we especially liked the showers!), and we appreciated the opporunity to bring our small dog with us. The location is quiet and hidden, yet close enough to the attractions of Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and the national park to be convenient. The owner provided excellent customer service and obviously cares that guests feel at home. My only complaint is that our three day stay just wasn't long enough!
