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 Furniture outdated, stained and dirty.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 Bathroom rugs stained,gray-black. 2 games in game room and they were outdated..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.

GBDo NOT rent with this company We stayed in Keatons streams and dreams. It was a nightmare. Black mold and sewer smells after use of water and toilets. Very cold-the bottom part of house shouldn’t be considered part of the cabin at all. Management doesn’t answer your calls but still charges for a terrible experience. Dead bugs everywhere, heater sparked when turning it on, bathroom floor rotten, the support beam doesn’t touch the ground…the list goes on.

GBThey left us stranded in 19 degree weather They left us stranded! After driving 8 hours and arriving at check in time we were told our cabin was “unavailable”. Speaking to Josh I asked what were we supposed to do. He responded not his problem. He was rude, belligerent and offered no options for us. It was 19degrees outside we had our small dogs and no place to stay for our week long vacation. Day after Christmas nothing available. After more than two hours we found a hotel an hour from Pigeon Forge. I have never experienced such rudeness and lack of customer care. If the owners of the cabin (assuming there really was a cabin) knew how they treated guests they would move their business! Don’t trust these people! They take your money early in the process and leave you stranded with no accommodations.
