My husband and I spent the weekend at the Chocolate Moose and it was great. The cabin was very cozy and comfortable. I loved when we walked it and the smell was wonderful. We had everything we needed and more. It was so clean and that is one thing I really liked. I hope we get to go back in the future. It's always nice to find a place you can count on to be everything you are looking for in a vacation rental. Geri was so great in getting us all the information we needed including a map that lead us right to the front door.
Thanks Geri

I was so happy to find this cabin! My niece loves moose and when she said she wanted to stay in a cabin to celebrate her birthday I could not have picked a better one for her, she said she was in moose heaven! We enjoyed our stay, everything was just as it was described in the listing. The bed was comfortable like other guests said, I slept great. The owner, Geri, was very quick to reply with friendly emails. We enjoyed visiting Gatlinburg and going to Smoky Mountain National Park (even though it rained the whole day). Thank you for sharing your cabin Geri!

We stayed at the Chocolate Moose and what a wonderful experience! The cabin is so well equiped with anything that anyone might want for a great vacation. It has 2 different type grills, charcoal and gas and even a George Forman type in the kitchen, more dishes, pots and pans than I have at home for cooking. There was a crock pot that we used a couple of days while we were out sightseeing, then our meal was ready when we got back.
We relaxed in the hot tub, used the porch rockers and porch swing everyday, played pool every night. There is a TV and DVD player in every room, but we really loved the wide screen and all the many, many movies that were there.
The location of the cabin was great, only about 10 min to Pigeon Forge or to Gatlinburg. The cabin is so quaint and cozy and home like, very comfortable. We just simply did not want to leave and go home. It is on a quiet dead-end road with a couple more cabins, but it has so much privacy. I felt better knowing I wasn't totally alone in the woods and really enjoyed the peacefulness and privacy of this cabin.
Geri has definitely outdone herself decorating and making sure that it is a fun and cozy place to visit and making us feel welcome. She was always very accessable and very helpful when we needed anything, not that we needed much.
We will never stay at another cabin and will always visit the Chocolate Moose every time we go to the mountains. Just simply the best place ever to rest and relax!
We loved the gate on the porch, sure made it easy for us to keep Butch on the porch.

Choclate Moose Cabin
Submitted: October 23, 2012
Stayed: October 2012
Great cabin, lots of moose, owner was very helpful with renting it. Only drawback was the steep driveway and road up to the cabin. I own a Dodge Challenger sports car and although it made it up there I would not advise anyone to take sport vehicle up the road. It was paved but in the winter it would be inpossible even with four wheel drive to get to this cabin. All and all for spring, summer and fall this is the idea cabin to rent. I give it 5 stars.

A Disappointment
Submitted: August 13, 2012
Stayed: August 2012
This property is listed as "...the ULTIMATE in luxury in style." Unfortunately, we did not find that to be the case. There are several items in need of attention in the cabin and it did not meet up to the standard that was advertised. The upholstery in main room was torn; the pool table was not placed in the same position as shown in the listing and consequently a proper game could not be played at all since it is placed in such a way that the pool cues hit the walls/windows when attempting to play; the igniter button on the gas BBQ grill did not work; the cover of the hot tub is in need of repair or replacement; the door from the bedroom to the hot tub area does not open/close properly and could only be opened with an extreme amount of exersion, when using the hot tub we were afraid to close the door for fear of getting locked out; several light bulbs were inoperative throughout the cabin; water pooled on the shelf and in the bottom drawer of the refrigerator.The Chocolate Moose certainly has great potential, however, inattention to some important details resulted in a disappointing experience. We emailed Geri upon our departure and let her know about these issues. She did not seem concerned about our disappointment. Her response to the issue with the refrigerator reveals her general attitude. "I have know about the refrigerator inside water leak for years. I knew about that from the initial Inspection BEFORE I purchased the cabin. I have had 2 appliance repair men at different times to look and try to fix that problem, but neither were able to do so or detect the origin of the leak, as it seems to be an intermittent problem. The only solutions would be to purchase and new refrigerator and I do not wish to do that..." I would not recommend this property.
Owner's Response: When Tracy CHECKED OUT she emailed me with these & other similar issues. My first thought would was, why would I be getting this type email when it sounds more like a punch-list from a Home Inspection than from people that vacationed there. I understood when I read that last sentence that reads "For the most part, we have enjoyed our stay in your cabin,but we do respectfully feel that we are due a partial refund of our fees". I promptly ordered an Inspection to check for legitimate problems. I emailed Tracy with the results & DENIED her REFUND request. INSPECTION RESULTS: 1.One small rip in couch, normal wear & tear 2.Weber gas grill self-starter hard to start, but starts fine with hand lighter, 2 lighters in cabin 3.Hot tub cover probably in need of replacement soon, but in NO WAY effects use & enjoyment of hot tub 4.Direct weather causes exterior door to swell from moisture when it rains, like any wood. She also said that there was something wrong with lock mechanism in email, Inspection showed it was fine & only way they could get locked out is if they turned the lock to the lock position.5.2 Low-wattage candelabra bulbs facing ceiling in 20" high chandelier that produce very little light burned out. Total of 21 bulbs in room supplies PLENTY of light, I bulb burned out in bath, 4 more bulbs in bath,1 bulb unscrewed in bedroom ceiling fan, easy to reach,PLENTY more light in room 6.Slow intermittent leak inside refrigerator, couldn't find source & was told it did not compromise temperature or food storage. I don't think many people would replace a perfectly good refrigerator with a new one that has this minor issue & it is cleaned after every check-out.7. Pool table is in same position for 5 years & I have NEVER had a complaint about the position before. ONLY 1 of these issues (grill) was brought to my attention while they were there,I offered to send Maintenance & was refused. I then got email saying "All else is good. Thanks much" MY THINKING is life is not perfect, there will always be rips,slips,drips & minor malfunctions. But, MY ATTITUDE is SUPER GREAT concerning my cabin! I LOVE the Chocolate Moose & DO EVERYTHING I CAN DO TO SEE THAT ALL MY GUESTS ARE HAPPY & COMFORTABLE! I don't mean to be harsh, but..the MORAL OF THE STORY is: You can't go to a restaurant, eat a steak,complain & then ask for a refund. Same with a cabin rental, can't stay for days, check-out, complain about issues that were never brought to my attention & expect a refund.

We sure love it here...it surpassed our expectations..and gave us the needed privacy and quiet we were after!! We recommend this for any couple needing a romantic get away, or anniversary, or even honeymooners like us. We're from the Big woods of Northern MN and wanted a home away from home. Everything the owner states on this website to describe this place is so true. It is just as she says. We walked in thru the front door and all our stress from the trip instantly started melting away! It was clean and you can tell the owner has taken such good care of it. The first day there we had a minor concern with the hot tub, which ended up being just ignorance on our part, but Geri was right there, just a phone call away to answer our question. This bed is awesome..the peacefulness is so wonderful. and as I write you, we are waking up from a blissful afternoon nap..just patiently waiting for the coffee to brew. I have beautiful music playing ...soft and magical. We will be venturing just a few short miles into town for a good meal, then back here for the hot tub. Our wedding in these Mountains was the most beautiful thing ever, more than I imagined, and to spend the first week as husband and wife in this wonderful wooded cabin, so welcoming and romantic...its been perfect. Geri, Thank you so much for sharing your cabin with us! We can't wait to plan another visit...maybe an anniversary trip.?

Chocolate Moose was fantastic. The cabin was just what we were looking for in a vacation. The amenities were excellent and better than advertised. You cannot go wrong with this cabin. The bed is amazing, the hot tub is very relaxing, and the views from the porches are great. We were up there for a nice relaxing time and that was exactly what was provided. Geri was great through the whole process.

The cabin was lovey and charming. The name of the cabin fits it perfectly and there was no lack of moose decor. I stayed with my grandmother, mother, and dog for 2 nights. It was a perfect fit for the 4 of us. I was so happy to find a pet friendly cabin with front porch gate. The bed was much larger than the pictures seem and it was very comfy. It was a bit of a challenge to find when first arriving at night. However, it was a perfect location - close to the Gatlinburg visitors’ center with trolley service to town. A word of advice: Housekeeping was at the door at 10am so be ready well in advance of checkout time. Geri was great to work and accommodating even with late night email/reservations. I would absolutely stay here again!

We spent a long weekend at Chocolate Moose and enjoyed it immensely. It was quite private, which is exactly what we wanted to escape from reality for a while. We didn't venture out much, but it was a quick trip into Pigeon Forge if we needed anything. Very quiet. The cabin was lovely, clean, nicely decorated, and VERY comfortable. Geri was great to work with, from the beginning of the rental process to the end of our stay. Often when you find a rental online, there are at least one or two aspects that seem a bit oversold, but Chocolate Moose was exactly as advertised, and more.
