The cabin was wonderful. We stayed in a one bedroom cabin with our two kids (4,9). They were in awe of the beautiful scenic views from all the windows. The lighting in the morning with the snow falling was a dream come true for the whole family. The hot tub was wonderful. Everything about our experience was PERFECT!

The cabin is beautiful! However, relying on the internet to book excursions- when the wifi is sketchy- is not very helpful for the guest staying there. Another method should be implemented. Thank you for the stay and we had a great time!

Expect a nice view trees are kinda thick during the summer can’t see the mountains great but you’re on a steep hill I’d prefer backing up the driveway! Very nice clean & everything worked fine!

We liked the cabin. However, the hot tub was weak. I am a regular visitor in the smokies cabins, and unfortunately, this cabin has the weakest hot tub, and the jet pressure was not strong enough. Other than that, I enjoyed our stay.

This was a great experience. The customer service was great and the cabin was well taken care of. We had no issues during our stay. The only thing that was missing was the welcome packet with local activities/restaurants I requested prior to my visit. We did make find some great places on our own though. We loved the Great Smoky Mountains and will definitely use Natural Retreat for our next getaway.

Our stay at Brother's Cove was very nice. We stayed in cabin #18, Bear Hug and it was just right for the two of us. It was very clean and comfortable. We attended a wedding at your venue and it was also very nice. We would definitely stay at one of your cabins again.
Thank you,

The cabin was wonderful for me and my Husband’s Honeymoon. The location was great and the precautions for the health and safety of guests and staff was very nice. The only complaint I would have is a small hot water heater but that is just because I like super hot baths. Everything was wonderful and I love that it was decorated for Christmas really made us feel at home. We will definitely be back and will definitely suggest to others to visit as well. I also received wonderful and timely responses when I had any questions prior to arrival.

Everything about the location and cabin was a 10! I gave a 9 because there was a wedding taking place Saturday night and the music was SO loud that I was not able to sit outside. It went on way into the night. I feel that for the money, there should be staff on site if there is a scheduled wedding to keep the noise from disturbing other paying guests. And all guests of the resort should be told a head of time that there is an event that is going to DISTURB thier stay.

Cute resort
Pros: The staff is very nice and friendly! The cabins are cute. Great location for a wedding at the lodge! Cons: The cabins are very close together so if looking for true solitude this is not the place.

Beautiful views to wake up too!
Enjoyed our stay and the cabin was exactly like it was advertised. Kitchen had everything needed and bathrooms were perfect with plenty of soft towels. Bed and pillows were super comfy! Hot tub was very nice and had plenty of seating on the deck.

Bear Hug #18
We just got home from a wonderful week in Beat Hug #18. It was a really good experience. The cabin was immaculate! The staff was great. Our cabin was in the perfect location. The only drawback was that the pool was only reachable by a very steep part of the road. Being folks not used to driving that type of terrain, it was not a drive we chose to make after the first time. But overall the experience was amazing and we had the best time. We will definitely be back!

Great view
We visited for our wedding anniversary. The view from the loft was great. A few issues we had were door to lower deck was very difficult to open, porch light bulb was out and the way we were instructed to drive up the mountain (to get to the cabin) meant that we had to pass the driveway and back up to park. Everything else was good. The drive to area attractions was quick and easy. Overall, we had a cozy getaway, very peaceful.

Such a Cute Cabin
My family of 3 visited this cabin over July 4th. The cabin was nestled on a hilltop with solar lights along the driveway. We absolutely loved our stay and definitely recommend this cabin. It was very clean and smelled of fresh wood. Just like a cabin in the mountains should :) the drive to Pigeon Forge wasn't bad at all! It took around 15-20 min to get there, and the drive was scenic and beautiful. Getting to Gatlinburg took an extra 10 or so minutes! The cabin supplied everything you would need (except for laundry detergent). Our view from the top balcony was pretty, mostly trees but we could see mountains. I have stayed in several cabins, and this was up on my list of the best. I have really bad allergies but they didn't bother me a bit here! (I have stayed in other cabins where I literally sneezed the entire time.) The only thing I found slightly wrong with this cabin was when you flushed the toilet you had to hold the handle down longer than usual to get it to flush. But that really wasn't a big deal! Overall an A+. We can't wait to visit again :)

Weekend Getaway!!!
We spent a wonderful weekend at Brother's Cove, Bear Hug 18. The view was magnificent, and the seclusion was a welcome experience. The colors of the mountains was something to behold, and it was cold enough that we enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub very much.
