This was the perfect spot for our family of seven adults and our dogs. Everyone had their own space for privacy and we all fit comfortably in the main living area to hang out together. We appreciated having a the convenience of a dishwasher and laundry facilities and everything was perfectly clean and ready for us- we even had a beautiful Christmas tree to enjoy! Great communication before and after our stay made this easy for us. Thank you!

Perfect stay, water front, you can literally hear the sound of the water. My family loved the cabin, perfect location and accommodations. Definitely will recommend it
Our family (4 adults, 1 child) stayed in July 2024. The condo is beautiful and makes you feel like you are in a cabin. The view from the balcony is peaceful and relaxing. The kitchen is well stocked, making breakfast and one meal in so much easier and healthier. The Xplorie benefit is a great option too!
CONS: The pool is not heated and was very cold. There was some work being done on the exterior of the buildings and they started quite early.....not what you're wanting to hear on vacation.....but it has to be done.
We are season passholders to Dollywood and come to the area often, but usually stay in PF or Sevierville. This week in July is our "long vacation", so we wanted something a little more peaceful and relaxing. This location fit the bill!
We had a great week before Christmas! We had four couples and everyone had plenty of room. Great location and very nice cabin. Would love to come back soon!

The unit was clean and close to the strip. You have a reserved parking spot. Comfortable bed, lots of towels. We did not really use the kitchen, but seemed to have plenty of items if you planned on cooking. We had great communication with the company.
Cabin was perfect!!!! Rustic and comfortable, located right on the river with wonderful views and amazing sounds of the water. Fireplace was awesome. Lots of room to spread out. I was even impressed with the water pressure. Thank you for providing our family a very Merry Christmas!!!!!

We loved the cabin feel of the condo, and it was the perfect place for us to rest and recover before going on our next adventure in the Smoky Mountains. The view from the balcony was so pretty, with fresh snowfall on the mountains!
Me and my family loved our stay. It was beautiful, private, and we got to see bears nearly everyday. It was an incredible cabin to stay at. It had everything we needed plus more. We will definitely be booking a stay there again. And the location was just perfect! We enjoyed our trip and will definitely be back next year! And the privacy was amazing! This cabin would definitely be a favorite for me.
Great place for a family retreat. Beautiful cabin, we got to see a bear family hanging around the cabin’s yard. Host was very responsive and their service guy Jason was super helpful and nice. It was an amazing experience. If you are looking for peaceful, beautiful, amazing experience in Gatlinburg this is the place to be.

We stayed the last week in Oct/2024.
Had a wonderful time in Gatlinburg, loved the cabin!!
Got engaged on the porch swing the first night 😍.
Within 30 mins of being there had a bear knock over 2 coolers I had just unloaded on the front porch.
We saw bears every day on the porch, up a tree right next to the windows.
They even left muddy bear tracks in the back of my truck.
We Had a wonderful relaxing week at smoky bear vista!!
Will definitely be back.

Beautiful and brand new cottage, with all the amenities needed for a great girls weekend. Game room is awesome and the kitchen spacious and well-provisioned. Plenty of parking. A few suggestions...need lamps in the main area, and clothes hangers. Also would suggest grab bars and anti-slip straps in the showers. Should update description to mention steps up to cottage (30). Not ideal for older renters.

The cabin was beautiful—spotless! The view was spectacular! We had a mother bear and two cubs walk by one night and a larger bear strolled by another evening.
We had the best time with our family during our stay. The view from the deck was breathtaking and the weather was perfect. We even got to watch a mama bear and her 3 babies from our (safe place on the deck). The trees still had some beautiful color and the cozy town of Gatlinburg offered a lot of options for dining and activities. We also enjoyed a day of hiking in the nearby Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It checked all the boxes for our family.

We had an amazing time at our cabin and it was so nice to be able to bring our fur baby!! The only thing I would point out is that the road up to the cabin is only big enough for one car so be EXTRA cautious coming down or up the hill where the cabin is located. It was a 20 min drive to everything and perfectly tucked away to get that peaceful mountain feel!!! We will definitely be back.

Great property, one of the nicest cabins we have ever rented. Great location, close to Gatlinburg, easy to access Smokey Mountains and quick to get to Pigeon Forge and Cosby areas. Yet Cabin in a quiet location with nice views of Gatlinburg region. Great amenities and large deck. Lots of bears so be careful to leave no food in car.
The unit was beautiful and perfect for our group we had a wonderful and peaceful weekend stay. We had 10 people stay very comfortably. My only issue is the rug by the front door it was a small tripping problem, but other than that no complaints.
Despite the weather we had a lovely week. We have been coming to this same cabin for 3 decades and out family tradition continues.
My only request would be more than one kitchen towel and dish rag.
Thank you for a great vacation.
Until next year…

What a great escape we had staying at Hidden Springs Cabin. Excellent accommodations, short 5 minute drive to downtown Gatlinburg. Had trouble with our television and after a call to office it was quickly fixed for us. We saw black bears every day around the cabin, lock car doors. I have used Diamond Mountain rentals several times and would highly recommend them.

The cabin was very clean, well stocked with what we needed. They could use new frying pans though. I would bring my own next time. The view of the Little Pigeon River was absolutely beautiful. I didn't understand how the dehumidifier worked in the closet. It stopped working and I realized the water tray had to be emptied. The bathroom needs to be updated. The shower head was too low. A floodlight in the back would have been a nice addition so we could see the river at night. I have to say that I would definitely re-book in the future. I'm glad we had wi-fi, even though it was spotty.
Rebecca B (Okmulgee, OK)

We chose this cabin for it's location right on the Little Pigeon River and it did not disappoint. The view of the river from the living room windows is really lovely, the only thing that would make that any better is being able to open the windows and here the peaceful sound from inside the cabin!
Yes,, the cabin itself is dated but we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The host was very responsive for the couple of questions that I had.
2 nd stay at this cabin with my family. Enjoy everything about the location. Cleanliness. Plenty of room for 10 people. Close to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Will stay here again looking forward to it
The cabin is beautiful and very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay tremendously. That said, the entire community is built on the side of a steep mountain meaning the roads are very steep and there are very few level spots. We had a truck, trailer and a motorcycle and maneuvering all of that was tricky. Thankfully this particular cabin has more level ground than most so we were able to make it work. Except for this one issue I give it my highest praise.
Absolutely beautiful home overlooking Gatlinburg! Enjoyed sitting on back porch with our friends in the cool evening. Great communication for checking in and minimal duties to complete prior to departing. I would definitely return to this cabin.

Excellent stay. Very clean and exceptionally well stocked. Had everything in basic supplies necessary for a 4 night stay. Thanks so much!
Excellent place if you want to enjoy nature. Place is amazingly clean, neat and new. If you are afraid of driving on steep roads, the place is on a hill and may be a challenging. Host was responding very fast for couple of questions I had.
The cabin was exactly as described online. Great facility, clean and just a great overall place to relax. Enjoy just spending time at the cabin, enjoying coffee on the deck board and card games with the family. The host and diamond Mountain were very responsive, answered all questions, and all details for check-in, and check out that we needed.
This home in Gatlinburg had everything we needed for the rest and reset we were looking for.
After a good night's rest in our comfy bed just off the wrap around deck, I enjoyed a daily cup of tea in my favorite spot on the day bed swing. We enjoyed the gorgeous views from the deck while watching the chipmunks play in the driveway and had saw a bear family amble through each day across the driveway.
After a day exploring, we returned each day to the deck for a nice soak in the hot tub while watching the sun set and the fire flies light up the mountainside around us.
The home is newly built and is beautifully appointed, with everything you need in the kitchen and even laundry detergent in the laundry room. We loved our stay and would highly recommend this home to families since there is even a cute bunk room with games.
Note: The drive way is steep, but we had no trouble with access in our mid-size SUV.
Wow!!! What an amazing cabin to stay at! We had the most amazing time for my boyfriend’s birthday weekend. The cabin exceeded our expectations! The views were amazing it was super clean! And we saw a ton of bears up close!!! It truly felt like home & was so serene 10/10 would recommend booking here and with diamond mountain cabins! We will be back to stay here again & cannot wait!
This cabin was a perfect place for my friends and I to relax for the weekend. The views from the back porch were beautiful and we had multiple bear sightings during our stay. The beds are comfortable and kitchen is very well stocked—I highly recommend this listing if you like to cook while traveling. The hosts were very responsive throughout our stay. The road up to the cabin can be quite steep in some places, and I’d recommend caution if the roads are wet. My four-wheel-drive Xterra had trouble in some spots because it was slick. Worth it for the views and lovely accommodations!
Smoky Bear Vista has amazing views, is very relaxing, but is still close driving distance to Gatlinburg and Great Smoky Mountain National Park. It was easy to find despite Google Maps not locating it exactly; driving just a bit further, it was easy to find the driveway. The cabin is spacious with plenty of beds for a family of five or more than one family. The hot tub views are amazing, and the large deck was perfect for relaxing day and night.
6 of us went up for the weekend to celebrate some birthdays. It was better than the pictures. The bear level was high so we got to see some fluffy creatures throughout the weekend! We will definitely be renting this place again!! Highly recommend!!!
Positive: Muy buen lugar para vacacionar, mi familia y mi mascota felices por el lugar, es grande y cómodo, lo recomiendo 100% y el personal te atiende con cualquier duda, yo personalmente alquile un lugar pero no aceptaba mascota y no tardó ni 5 minutos y ya me había encontrado uno para poder llevar mi mascota 😃
WOW! Is all I can say! Amazing property, love how private it is! If your trying to see bears this is the place!!!! We seen bears everyday of our stay on the property. I highly recommend visiting Anakeesta especially since you can see it from the property. Absolutely beautiful experience for the family. We can’t wait to go back already planning a return.
We have stayed here so many times, so many memories, it’s getting older, some little issues but we always have a great time,

Second year in a row staying here. Place has everything you need and is a great location to the strip, but isn't busy with neighbors. We were almost completely alone both stays and hardly saw anyone else on our balcony.. Great place to stay and will definitely be back
This cabin is cute and cozy and perfect for those who want to spend time between Gatlinburg and PF! We enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning.
This cabin was everything we were looking for; clean, updated, peaceful and private. The host was super responsive prior and during our stay. We will be back!!

The cabin was spacious and clean. There was lots of space for all seven adults, with room for more. There were lots of activities close by and we found a new hiking area every day. We were visited by some local bears, we had a front row seat on the porch as they wandered in and out of the area. Great house in a great area!
We had a wonderful stay at this home. The home was clean and beautiful with breathtaking views. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and I highly recommend this home to fellow travelers.

It was my first time in Gatlinburg with family and friends. I was so glad that we booked this property. Cabin is brand new and looks exactly the same as it’s shown in photo. I will definitely rebook this when we go back on our next trip there.

The house was perfect for our needs and we were able to book it on the same day we saw the house. The interior is dated, but worked well for our needs. Love the proximity to the river and the sound of the water runnning each time we stepped out was a breath of fresh air! Great place!
Cabin was very clean, lights were on as well as ceiling fans so we didn't walk in to a dark cabin. Very quiet, and perfect location. Grandson enjoyed the pool table and the air hockey. Oh we did get to see a black bear too !! 5 stars
Spirit of the Mountains accommodated our family very well. Beds very comfortable. Saw a bear the first day. Fun extended family vacation.

I'm sure its been said many times before, but the pictures don't do this place justice. We absolutely love our time here. The highlight for us was definitely the porch. We spent mornings out drinking coffee and watching bears. A few nights we had dinner on the table outside and watching fireflies from the hot tub was magical.
Our family of 4 agreed that this was everyone favorite place we have ever stayed.

Very serene and peaceful! The cabin was clean and the bed was very comfortable! The bathroom was spacious and nice. The only thing I would add is somewhere to put your soap and shampoo on in the shower. We spent recharging evenings sitting at the fire pit and listening to the creek! We took walks the views were great. Would stay again!
