GBFive little bears cabin in gatlinburg… Five little bears cabin in gatlinburg tennessee. Awful experience. Cabin need renovations interior and exterior. Furniture outdated, stained and dirty. TV cable didn't work. Bed comforters stained. Bathroom rugs stained,gray-black. 2 games in game room and they were outdated.. This was my first and last cabin rental. Definitely not worth all the money I paid.

GBThe reviews on there website appear to be written by staff and would not let me leave an honest review. Colonial Properties were NOT accommodating, the cabin was unoccupied the week before and after our stay, they made us sit in the driveway for 45 min and call them back 3 times before they would put in the code to unlock the door. We stayed at the “Overlook” They failed to tell us we would be overlooking the tops of trees that blocked our views of the majestic mountains we traveled to see, the windows are also old and dirty, we tried to clean them and the seals are broken and moisture was trapped inside ☹ The cabin was to sleep 12. There was only 6 forks, 7 spoons and 8 butter knives. (they did bring 4 of each, which was still inadequate) The bedspreads on the beds were old, OLD and warn out, there were not enough blankets and Colonial told us we had to buy our own, they would not supply them. The couches were kinda gross, we put the sheets on them to sit on. The chairs were mismatched and 1 broken. There was black mold in 2 of the bathrooms, 1 bed was broken, 1 tv was broken. We made a trip to Colonial Properties and spoke to the manager about our long list of things that should have been cleaned, repaired, disclosed, as well as proper etiquette. We invited her to come to see, she said she would get back to us and never did. PITYFUL! There are multiple beautiful cabins with reputable realtors, I strongly suggest you save yourselves trouble and go to one of them and steer clear of Colonial Properties Cabin and Resort Rentals AND The Overlook Cabin

GBBEDBUGS BEWARE AT BIG TIMBER CABIN BEDBUGS BEWARE AT BIG TIMBER CABIN. Husband spoke to josh who seemed profesional said we would get a call back a week passed so we had to call back only to be told nothing could be done we weren't expecting a full refund just the night we didn't stay. They said they found nothing when clear picture proves we found bugs. Blood stain on old pull out sofa bed. Nails sticking out on top step leading to basement,stained pillow cases,a bed supported by plastic understorage tote, old beds,outdated electric stove that one takes forever to get hot. needs a lot of work. steps leading to door dangerous.

GBNightmare of dirt After we got there, we found the cabin not cleaned, dirty bed linens, dirty bath towels, towels all over the floor, bathroom was uncleaned. When we called the management, Josh, was unapologetic, rude, claimed they had 24 hours to fix the problem per the rental agreement. I reviewed the contract, that was a lie, when I told him that, he became increasingly rude. We waited over 3 hours for the cleaning crew, horrible service all the way around. Will never stay here again.

GBNot Impressed We have only been here for a few hours so far but we are disappointed. The cabin sleeps 6 by opening the sofa. However, there are no extra pillows for sleeping. Nor are there towels enough for 6. We have 4 towels, period. We have stayed many places like this and were always provided with things like salt and pepper, coffee filters, dishwashing liquid, etc. Not here. Not my idea of a great start to our vacation.
