  Stephen W from Simpsonville, SC recommends this vacation rental

  The location is in a great place. The cabins are very nice. Their was some parts of the cabin that might need to be updated. Newer TVs would be a easy upgrade from the ones that are there. It was time to replace the air hockey table. It was worn next to the goals. The thermometer did not work on the grill as well. Other than that it was a real nice stay. This was our second time staying in this cabin. We have been going to elk springs sense 2008 and always enjoy it!

  I rented the Knotty & Nice cabin for my 40th birthday and shared it with some family and friends. I had the BEST TIME EVER!! The cabin was PERFECT!! Very nice, clean and comfortable. Everyone enjoyed it and said that they would love to come back again. I was very pleased and would recommend this cabin to family and friends that did not get to experience it. Thanks Elk Spring...You guys are GREAT!!

  My wife's family and mine gathered here to celebrate Thanksgiving together for the first time and let me say that this cabin was not only spacious but also very clean and came with all the amenities and extra cookware stated in our agreement ! We all abosutley enjoyed our stay so much that we are considering doing this every year at elk springs. Customer service was amazing and very prompt to return calls and simple fact that they called me to just make sure we had everything we needed on the weekend speaks volumes!
  From the Pratt & Henry family we say thank you soooo much and look forward to staying here again, and again, and again..well you get the point! :)

  a guest from Jasper, IN recommends this vacation rental

  We were a group of 11 people and this property had ample space to accommodate all of us plus more. Location is a little out in the sticks but it's very peaceful and has forest views plus a peek into the mountains.
  
  The indoor theater is amazing, pool table, ice hockey table, jacuzzi all add to the fun of staying in this location.
  
  Check in / Check out is effortless.
  
  Negatives - no cell phone reception, very patchy wifi network. And yes, the front door started beeping at 3am one day and woke all of us. It was fixed by 10 am. No, it wasn't beeping continuously, just every 30 mins or so

  As if the cabin, complete with home theater room, sauna, pool table, air hockey and hot tub wasn't enough, the resort is in a great location. Close enough to downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge that you dont spend all day driving but far enough away tucked in the mountains enough that you are away from all of the hustle and bustle. It was a wonderful vacation and we will be going back.

  Marlene C from Cordova, TN recommends this vacation rental

  The Knotty and Nice cabin was just simply Awesome, Beautiful and Very Spacious and we felt like it was our very own home while we were there. It was very clean and decorated very beautiful. The deck was so refreshing to sit out on and drink coffee, read a book, or just talk. Every thing I needed to prepare a family meal was in the kitchen which made it so convenient. The children had a ball playing in the game room and so did I. We had so much fun visiting the many attractions, there's just so much to do there no matter what your age is. The theatre room was like being at the movies, but only better because we were able to recline back as we watched our movie and ate popcorn. It was Awesome and the "Best Family Vacation" trip ever!!! We are still talking about it and can't wait to go back!

There was something for everyone here. The location was excellent to as we were very close to Gatlinburg. We defnitely plan to come back to this lovely cabin.

  This had to be the most relaxing vacation ever. My friends and I take about 3 vacations per year, and this one is at the top of our list. Weather was great, lots of thinkg to do and see in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Cates Cove, Maggie Valley. We hot tubed every night, and used the theater room. This was amazing, we loved it. Just like going to the movies. The sound wasnt working right when we arrived, it was checked that afternoon, and the next morning, a brand new systen was installed. Have never had better service. Will be going back, and I will be taking my family. There is something for everyone. The game room was wonderful. Thanks for sharing this beautiful retreat with the Bakersfield Clan.

  a guest from Mansfield, OH recommends this vacation rental

  Our family stayed August 1st > the 5th. in Knotty and Nice. The cabin was just as pictured on the web site, beautiful and roomy. The cabin was clean and well maintained, the only suggestion we have would to check the tips on the pool sticks and maybe have a couple spares on hand, as they had been worn down and worn out. When we tried to use the sauna it did not work the first time I called and left a message but we tried later that evening and it seemed to be working so we called back to let maintence know.
  The location was great as well as long as you don't mind a short drive to the attractions. The staff and property manager were very helpful from booking to checking in. Would have loved to stay longer, so we could have spent even more time relaxing and hanging out in the cabin.

  a guest from Milford Center, OH recommends this vacation rental

  I loved the cabin! There was a lot of room and separate areas for everyone in the family to go; also i have two infants and pretty much this cabin was "baby proofed". I liked that this cabin was a little more tucked away than others and provided a lot of parking where as some i could see did not. Just a couple of things i did not like, the jacuzzi tub didn't appear to be cleaned when i arrived, it could have been dust i don't know. I would recommend bringing your own sheets and towells if you like something with a little more thread count. I don't believe there is a pool going in at all if there is i never saw one it would have to be at a different location... I will be staying at Elk Springs again and i cannot wait to try out some other cabins!

  unusable due to falling through the frame. We really did have a nice time and enjoyed the overall condition of the cabin. It suited our needs perfectly. We would return - but just felt some things could have been better. We would have liked to have had a vacuum available as the children do drop crums and food onto the carpet around the table - but we weren't able to do anything about the small crums. The heat/air conditioning was broken and it took 2 days to get it repaired. By then the temperatures were cooler and we didn't need air. Just things that should be checked between each tenant. It sounds like we hated it - but we really didn't. 1 more thing - our garbage added up quickly - and we couldn't get anyone to pick it up.

  • Manager Responded on 4/14/2011

    Thank you for the feedback and we're sorry for the issues. We should have been more thorough on this unit to prevent these items from happening. Spring and the warm temperatures did come early and we did not yet have all of our A/C units inspected and did not know there was a freon leak in your unit. We have since fixed the unit and all of our other units. Again, we do apologize. You do get a 10% discount on future stays as a repeat guest and we are glad you still enjoyed your stay despite these issues.

  My son was married at Little Log Chapel on December 18. Our family and a few friends stayed at Knotty & Nice (which was very convenient to the church) from 12/16-12/18. The cabin was beautiful and very clean. The layout allows for privacy when needed and the game room, hot tub, etc. were welcome additions. We are looking forward to visiting again in warmer weather and getting our family together again since we had such a good time during our last stay. As my husband said as we were leaving the cabin, we should do this at least once a year.

  We were booked into a different cabin than knotty and nice, but upon arrival and getting settled we encountered a problem that could not be fixed that evening. when we called they came out immediately and tried to take care of it. it was a problem they were unaware of. they moved us to knotty and nice and helped us move. We couldn't have asked for more instant helpful management. They were great. The cabin is beautiful and the cleanest we have ever been in and we have been to the smokies for the last 27 years, We have never stay in a Motel, condo or cabin as clean and nice as this resort offers. Our family came in and we enjoyed the pool table, air hockey, movie theater.sauna room and hot tub. We hated to leave and our 59th anniversary will always be remembered as so special because of elk springs resort. We highly recommend it. and will definitely be back.

  We just can't say enough about this incredible cabin! The double bunk bedroom located on the lower level with the pool table and air hockey table was a teenager haven!

We loved everything about this cabin and would definitely consider staying here again if we ever get the chance to return to the Great Smokey Mountains!!! Thank you!

  Since we had AT&T cell phones, we had no cell phone coverage. I strongly recommend that ESR install phones in all the units so we can call the office, especially in the case of an emergency. Fortunately, we could flag down the maintenance man on his "buggy" to help us out.

  The cabin was beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay. There were a few issues with cleanliness, mainly a couple of the bathrooms, but nothing major. We will most likely stay again.

  Beth V from Mount Juliet, TN recommends this vacation rental

  The Elks is located just far enough away from town, but close enough to make an easy vacation. The Knotty & Nice was beautiful. A couple of the movie theater seats were unusable which stunk, and a toilet in the community bathroom was leaking. But it didn't affect our ability to enjoy the weekend. We will definitely be back!

  • Manager Responded on 1/18/2010

    Hi Beth, we do apologize for the inconvenience with the theater seats. We did have to order some parts and they were not available by the time of your check in. In any event, we're glad you enjoyed your stay as it is a great cabin! Please remember that you get 10% future stays as a repeat guest!

  Lisa C from Fairview, TN recommends this vacation rental

  We love Elk Springs Resort. We started a tradition a few years best friend and her family, along with my family, come to Gatlinburg every Oct or Nov. This makes our 2nd yr at Elk Springs Resort. My best friend also comes every Feb for her wedding anniversary. We absolutely love it, and would recommend and do recommend to everyone. We stayed at Knotty and Nice this time. It is beautiful!!! Our only complaint is that one of the seats in the theater room was missing the springs or something. It was caved in. We had 9 people, so it limited how many could get a seat. We reported it, and I'm sure they will fix it. I wouldn't let that stop me from renting this beautiful cabin again. However, it is our goal to come back every year and stay in a different cabin until we have stayed at all of them. We absolutely love Elk Springs!!!

  Everything was wonderfull. It was more than what we had hoped for. We stayed for 5 nights. Total of three couples in the Knotty & Nice cabin. Great time for all of us. Very comfortable beds. Great view of mountians, and spacious kitchen area. The cabin actually looked just like pictures on website. Looking forward to staying there again.

  We will definitely stay again. There were a few kitchen items we needed, and they were promised the same day. Someone showed up with them within an hour. We had seven children in the same cabin, and there was plenty of room and they had a great time.

  Rich H from Plainfield, IL recommends this vacation rental

  We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at your resort. There were 8 of us (4 couples ranging from 58 to 67 years old) so our plans were to spent an ample amount of time in the cabin with some time for sightseeing, shopping, and dining. The cabin was plenty spacious for our group so that we could do things together or separately. One small thing that the balconies could have used were tables by the rocking chairs for our drinks and snacks, but this was just a minor inconvenience. One more small annoyance, the street that ran by our cabin was not paved, causing the bottom of our car to occasionally scrape as we pulled into our driveway if we weren't careful. Overall, we, all eight of us, were very pleased with the accommodations and location and would recommend this resort to our friends.

  Grisel O from Miami Beach, FL recommends this vacation rental

  Our stay was everything we hoped for. The house was absolutely gorgeous. The game room is away from the rest of the house on the bottom floor which kept all the party animals away from the grandma's. The house looks JUST LIKE THE PICTURES. There isn't a great view but the trees keep the house pretty private, which is important. The management is very helpful and provided everything we needed. The only advice i have for future guests is, do not take a luxury car or compact car for that matter to this area. Stick to SUV's Vans etc... my BMW's bumper suffered severely because of the unpaved road to the house. That's just a heads up and a mistake on MY part for not being familiar with my surroundings.

  • Manager Responded on 9/15/2009

    Hi Grisel, thank you for the kind review! We've had some heavy rains which affected the roads, but we've gone and fixed the up so it should no longer be an issue. As a repeat visitor you automatically save an additional 10% on future stays!

  THE ONLY THING THAT WE HAD TO DO WAS BUY MORE POTS AND PANS BECAUSE FOR A LARGE GROUP THE POTS AND PANS WAS NOT BIG ENOUGH. WE HAD TO HAVE MAINTINENCE DONE ON THE HOTWATER HEATER AND THE GENTLEMAN WAS VERY PROMPT ON GETTING IT FIXED. WE WOULD STAY AT ELKS SPRINGS AGAIN.

  We stayed with another family of 4 and had plently of room to spread out. We are looking forward to coming back in the summer and staying with Elk Springs again. Marnin the maintanence man was the best. He helped get our projector fixed and brought us a new coffee pot. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Knotty and Nice. Thanks!

  We celebrated my twins' 13th Birthday at our Cabin and considering that they are Florida girls who have never seen snow we got everything we wanted and more with one of the biggest snowfalls in 40 yrs. Our cabin was just spectacular and our entire family of 4 adults and 7 kids ranged in ages from 9 to 23 had a great time. My wife is already planning our next stay.

  John E from Louisville, KY recommends this vacation rental

  All was good accept that we had to move to 3 different cabins during our stay. The first cabin Snuggled In had Bunk beds and we had two couples, the second cabin The View the electricity was shut off due to not getting a final inspection. Although Whitney and Kim were helpful if was a bit of a hassle having to change cabins 3 times. We will make it back but would like some compensation for our troubles in moving cabins twice in 2 days

  I was very impressed with the cabin at Elk Springs Resort. It had everything mentioned on the website and so much more. The only thing I would like to see added would be serving dishes. There are pots and pans as well as mixing bowls, but nothing to serve dinner in. I will be bringing my entire family to stay at Serenity in two weeks to celebrate Thanksgiving. It would be great if we didn't have to bring serving dishes. Other than this complaint, Elk Springs is the greatest place I have stayed at to date.
