We enjoyed a wonderful family vacation. The cabin is lovely and so comfortable. Everything we could possibly need was already here. The outside surroundings were so nice to listen to and peaceful. Thank you for allowing us to vacation in your cabin, we wish we did not have to leave. Also, got to see a little snow! (November)

The H, B, &E families

What a beautiful place! Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity in letting us stay in your cabin. It was a retreat much needed. It’s so great to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life and come to a place where God’s creation is so evident. May the Lord bless this home and your family. Your brother & sister in Christ.

It is so wonderful to spend time together as a family and to spend it at your warm and interesting mountain home is extra special. After years of looking and planning, you have found the perfect retreat, not only to enjoy but also to share with others. Your hard work is certainly evident and everyone you share it with feels the love you have put into your place. Just sitting on the front porch and listening to the "sounds" puts everything into perspective. We love the Gardens—Great rook games. Thanks.

P, J,S,&J

We enjoyed your home very much! And I do mean "home" as it felt very much like home. The house is beautiful as are the gardens. The location is great-close enough to town but far enough away to feel like a retreat.

We all had a wonderful time—even 3 teenagers!!

The D’s

I loved the TV in my room. I watched air bud seven times. Thank you for letting me stay.

Wow! What a fabulous week! Your "cabin" is wonderful! We felt very much at home yet in such a relaxing place. Even with four little ones, it was easy to get away. The kids loved playing in the yard and watching the creek. We loved watching them….We cannot wait for the next time!

Thank you for sharing your home. You have something very special here.

Thanks for a wonderful stay. We were able to meet out Georgia family half way and spend Easter together. The garden was a great place for an Easter egg hunt for the little ones. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us. God Bless You.

We have indeed felt the presence of The Lord in this place. The house was every bit as comfortable as our own home. And as well furnished. Our children, age 5 and 9 loved the adventure of the garden, with secret places revealed and laughter and giggling echoing through the hills. A great place to stay. Thanks!

I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay in your home.  It was so beautiful and peaceful!!  We just didn't want to leave.  I can't imagine how you ever pull yourselves away from there.  The house was beautifully decorated and extremely nice.  Your yard was beautiful and we even saw a bear in the front yard.  A raccoon came up and scratched on the front screen door.  We were just amazed at how relaxing our trip was...all due to your home.  We are normally in a rush to go and see but this time, we just layed around the house and relaxed.  We didn't want to go  anywhere, we were too comfortable.  Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your home.  We definitely plan to try to stay there again in the future..hopefully the near future.

Thanks so much for opening your home to us. This has truly been a home away from home. We have come in and felt just like we were home. This is such a KID friendly place and that was just what we were looking for.

The gardens and porches were so nice to enjoy while the children played. We have really enjoyed the time spent here.

The "K" Family-High Point, NC

We enjoyed our visit at Baskins Creek Sounds. "T", our granddaughter, enjoyed having her own room. "A", our 3-month-old grandson, enjoyed the porches. The rest of us enjoyed everything about the cabin. Even though we live in the country we liked the yard that gave a feeling of being away from the crowds. The sounds from the creek are so relaxing. Exploring the yard was an added treat. We were always finding something new.

Thanks for allowing us to enjoy your treasures.

The "M" Family-Pontotoc, MS

Once again we have enjoyed our stay in your beautiful home. The snow this weekend was just beautiful and the snowball fights were quite exhausting!

We always look forward to staying here as it feels so much like home. We hope you guys get to enjoy the house as much as we do! God Bless You!!

Thank you for sharing your wonderful retreat with us. After many visits to Gatlinburg over the years, I do believe that we have found the perfect spot. We felt right at home.

As a special treat on this visit, we had snow on the mountains near Clingmans Dome. We all enjoyed a good snowball fight and the delicious 2 to 3 feet long icicycles.

We also enjoyed our three hour hike into the park at the end of the road. (Just up from the cabin) There was so much to see. There are actually remnants of old house places along the trail.

Thanks again for the wonderful visit.

The cabin was more than we expected. The pictures could not convey the absolute beauty and tranquility of staying here. We all went to church on Easter and was truly blessed.

All of our needs were met and the comfort was astounding. Both of our families enjoyed everything. We even got snow on our visit.

Our prayer is that many will continue to rest and reflect how truly God blesses us with our hearts desires.

Thank you Gregory’s for allowing us to be here.

We had a wonderful time during our stay here. Thank you so much for everything. We had all we needed and then some. We enjoyed the hike on the trail at the end of the road.

The trillium was beautiful. We really hate to leave your beautiful home.

Once again, we really enjoyed our stay in your “comfy cozy cottage”. We always enjoy the Gaither concerts, our meals we have together, the times of fellowship and being at your home.

There wasn’t anything we needed that we did not find in your well equipped kitchen, oh, there is one thing—a machine that magically takes the calories out of our food.

Thank you from the three college (Asbury) friends, couples, from way back.

A short note of thanks from our family to your family for sharing your home with us. We certainly enjoyed each and every day of our stay and will always remember our family vacation in the Smokies.

This has been our home away from home and will be our next visit to the area.

Whew! Time flies by so quickly in a place like this. We had a marvelous stay. Our one minor annoyance was quickly resolved. I thank you for that.

My daughter and I enjoyed the opportunity to cook for our families and enjoy the meals together at the large table.

My two teen grandsons and 8 yr old granddaughter watched as a turtle dug the hole to lay her eggs, birds perched to sing to us and the aroma of the flowers and honeysuckle. The cabin was a delight with all the interesting pieces and unique way you have employed them. Even the rain was pleasurable from the back sleeping porch.

We hate to leave and hope to see you again.
