"We stayed in unit 102 at Bear Crossing. Condo was clean and roomy. My favorite part was the balcony overlooking Little Pigeon River. Nice outdoor furniture to sit and relax and just listen and watch the river. We highly recommend Kirklands Smoky Mountain rentals. "

"We stayed at Cuddle Bear cabin and the view was insanely spectacular and just as pictured. Cabin is very well maintained, clean, cozy, and in great condition. We will be back! "

Emma Stahl Guest

"We stayed in the Old Mill Cabin. It is really more of a home, but what a wonderful location! The back yard is so pleasant and quiet. We actually even saw a fox! Communication was great, and house was very clean. Door code entry was a breeze. "
