Great Vacation and Location
We have been coming to the mountains once or twice per year for many years. We have stayed in Gatlinburg, Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Townsend and never in the same rental home. This is the first time my wife has said she would like to rent the same home the next time we visit. The yard was totally fenced in the back making it safe for our dog who marked and ran for multiple bumpers I threw. It was great being able to let her out without putting her on a leash. The house was immaculate and very comfortable; everything worked as it should. The internet connection was plenty fast and there were TV's in every room. The accommodations were very comfortable. The location was great for us, halfway between Townsend and Sevierville. The hosts Mathew and Sara answered all our questions before arriving and kept in touch with us while we were visiting in their home. My only hesitation about giving them 5 stars is that it may make it harder for us to rent the house again if too many visitors find this "gem."

We LOVED this property and would definitely stay again! Enjoyed fishing in the pond that was within walking distance. The outdoor space was perfect, and the yard was huge (enjoyed the privacy of the property). We celebrated my son's birthday while there. Plenty of room indoors and outdoors to eat. Thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit. Thank you!!!

Beautiful Cabin
We stayed from Sunday night until Friday morning. It had the perfect amount of space for my fiancé and I, our two sons, my mom & our dog. We loved the screened in front porch and got tons of use out of it. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing. We didn't realize the pool was open to community so it was busy at times but we was able to enjoy it for a few times. It is a really nice pool just has times of being busier and more packed. We used the fire pit and it was really nice! This cabin feels like home, with all of the special touches and makes you want to stay forever. The only complaint would be if multiple people are showering the water would get cold fast. I'm pleased with how easy it was to communicate with the host and even though we had a small issue with a repair needing to be done during our stay our host communicated through it and made our stay smooth.

Perfect in All Aspects!
Everything about the description of cabin and property was exactly as described. As we pulled in we were in awe with the gorgeous property and surrounding areas. I don’t know who was more excited with the fenced area, us or our dogs! The cabin interior was beautifully decorated and cozy throughout! There was plenty of room for 4 adults and 3 children. The kitchen was well stocked and plenty of extra bedding. We spent most of our time enjoying the cabin and outdoors and only adventured out a couple times. We were too busy sitting on the deck, screened in front porch, playing with the dogs, shooting some pool, playing cards, sitting in a clean and refreshing hot tub and sitting by the fire pit making s’mores and looking at the stars! We even got a pretty good late night show each night from the Synchronous Fireflies each night. Plenty of exterior seating on the deck and fire pit area. The Owners were great! Although we did not get to meet Mathew in person we were able to speak with him. Within an 1/2 hr of arriving I contacted him to see if we could stay another night. Unfortunately it was already rented. Very close to the Smokies, Coves Cave, tubing and waterfalls. It’s close to Pigeon Forge however we were more into enjoying the outdoors than the attractions! Highly recommend! We will be back! Thank you for sharing your property with us! The Van Newhouse’s and Canniff’s

I along with my mom, boyfriend, and Shihpoo stayed at Golden Oaks. We had a fantastic stay, and even got to see a big momma bear and her cub cross the road while walking my dog! So much to do nearby! We will definitely stay at Golden Oaks in the future.

Great flatlands rental in the mountains
We picked this vacation rental based on reviews and the fenced area for our Italian Greyhounds. They loved being able to race at full speed and burn off some of their pent up energy. Very hard to find this type of outlet for them in a vacation rental. The house was clean and furniture reasonably comfortable. The bed was comfortable as well. We really enjoyed relaxing on the screened porch area in the early morning and late afternoon. The house was easy to get to without having to navigate the treacherous roads that many rentals have in this area. We have rented more than a dozen rentals in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area over the past 2 decades and Golden Oaks would definitely rank near the top of our list. The local pool and snack bar/deli would be a great spot for families with kids to enjoy. We had a good time, would recommend the rental to others, and will possible visut Golden Oaks again.

Great mountain home!!
Our family loved it! The screened-in porch was amazing, and our dog loved to watch the geese and squirrels! We all enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit on the cool spring nights. The back yard is awesome too. You can’t beat the location as it’s a perfect distance between Pigeon Forge and the quieter Townsend. Just minutes from the National Park and Metcalf Bottoms picnic area. We will definitely be back!!

Always LOVE this place!
This was our third or fourth stay at this property and we ALWAYS love it here! The home lives a bit more like a ranch home than a cabin, but that's a large part of the charm for us as we have to deal with minimal stairs and no creepy basement bedrooms or open lofts (been there, done that!). The furnishings are great and comfortable, the location is wonderful (closer to Townsend which is nice if you want a slower paced vacation) and the YARD is the selling feature! Our dogs LOVE going off leash and running the HUGE yard and I too would have LOVED it as a kid! So much room for activities! This home is always clean, always inviting and always peaceful. Thank you for another great stay!
