We stayed at the montgomery schoolhouse cottage. This place was in a great area and we had the best experience! It was clean and cozy and we got to bring our two little dogs. We loved it so much we extended our stay an extra night. The host, Melinda, was phenomenal as well. The hot tub wouldn't come on and within an hour of messaging them, it was fixed! We can't wait to come back!
The house is in a good location close to The Island, Dollywood and Gatlinburg. Very private with no direct neighbors and plenty of parking. Not very clean; every room had cobwebs on the ceilings, doorways and trim all had black fingerprints, bathtub had mildew around the rim and floors had not been swept.
Very quiet and private for where itâs located. You could walk to Dollywood or ride a bike if you wanted to. Easy access to Pigeon Forge and everything there.
Positives: comfortable furniture, fast internet, plenty of room, kitchen appliances and utensils are well stocked. Also a nugget ice maker.
My family and I were thoroughly impressed with this place! It is family-friendly, clean, and well-maintained, with the extra charm of embracing its history as a schoolhouse. Both bedrooms are spacious, the bathroom works well, and there's lots of space for a family to hang out and spend time together. The Foosball coffee table and arcade were both hits with my kids, and the outdoor area was a hit for my spouse and I. I also liked that it felt secluded to a degree, but major Pigeon Forge attractions were short 5 minute drives away. Overall, we liked this place quite a bit, and would love to come back whenever we visit Pigeon Forge again.
I will start with the positives about this rental. The location is great! The land around the property is great for kids and dogs to play/walk. My kids loved the arcade game. The bad started upon arrival. We arrived at night and not a single light was on. Which was scary and thankfully we had flashlights. Needs basic maintenance, cobwebs, bulbs out, clock out. The bathroom toilet had issues and there were ants in the bathroom (large ant hills on property). The hot tub was dirty(owner was quick to respond though and have someone clean it). Outdoor area not very inviting at night around hot tub because there is no lighting other than a few solar lights and ants all over the inside of the box that has the outdoor cushions. Also, the entry french doors could use some curtains because they are mirrored so at night you cannot see out but someone could see in which is creepy. In the end, we made the most of it and do believe this place has great potential, but based on our stay I'm not sure how it has a 9.8 rating.
Our stay was great. Perfect location. We walked to Dollywood. It was great for anyone with a dog. Our dog really enjoyed the upper yard. It is flat and surrounded by bushes, like a fence. We could play frisbee with him up there. Would definitely stay here again.
Property nice, clean. No light at kitchen sink, low water pressure, only one closet, kitchen cookware very used. Tried to use a spatula and it broke, we bought and left a new one.
We had such a nice time in Pigeon Forge, and our stay in this special cabin made it even more enjoyable. It is in a perfect location! We would definitely recommend it to anyone.
From Charles, then owner: "After an extremely long, daunting renovation I wanted to share my schoolhouse with the world because it is so special to me. There is so much history within these four walls, it's astounding. I kept the historic schoolhouse theme in the decor while renovating it into a comfortable vacation rental! Being so close to Dollywood also makes it a perfect rental. By passing through and staying here you will be adding to the rich history of The Montgomery School. I hope you can make your own unforgettable memories here like so many have before you. "
