Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
Learn more about our review moderation.

This was a quaint property with so much character. It had everything we needed and was a perfect location for sightseeing in the area. The owners went above and beyond to add special touches to make sure our stay was enjoyable. We loved it!

The Gatehouse is a beautiful little cottage. Very clean and had almost everything I needed. I grew up going to Cowans Gap state park. We would go 3 to 4 times a year with my mom. My mother is no longer with us, but I will continue are tradition with my sons. James and Kelly have always been extremely kind and welcoming. I would like to thank them so much. It meant so much to me to be able to go to my mom's favorite place. Her ashes were spread up at the lake. This was my first time being there since she passed and it was very surreal. We had a great weekend and will be back for many more. Thanks again it really did mean so much to be able to go and continue to make beautiful memories.

The house itself is really cute and well maintained. The woods behind it are beautiful. But, I did not realize how close to a major road the house is. The noise from the road and constant view of the cars hurt the experience a bit.

Loved my stay! The cottage was cozy and homey and thoughtfully stocked with all the right supplies needed for a weekend away. I spent most of my time hiking in nearby Cowans Gap which was absolutely beautiful this time of year. I gave a 5 star review because very thing really was wonderful, however I feel it should be noted this property is just off a main road and the traffic was a bit distracting (coming from someone that doesn't live near much traffic). But overall would absolutely recommend!

Very cute and relaxing cottage.
My sisters really enjoyed staying in this adorable cottage. Very clean and comfortable. It was surprising to be greeted with some soothing music , hot apple cider and all the fixings for S'mores. It supplied everything we could want. We would highly recommend this cottage for everyone and the hosts were wonderful. We hope to return sometime.

Great location for Historic Ft. Loudon
We got off to a bumpy start (poor checkin communication from owner, missed the picture of the VERY steep 18th c stairs to 2nd floor bedrooms and no hot water for the first 2 days) *BUT* the cottage was comfortable & spacious & the A/C worked beautifully. Once we simply turned on the hot water setting ourselves, all was well. If you are looking for an old-fashioned country cottage, this is the place.
