Decent place for two people.
This was a decent place to stay the only issues I had were problems getting up the driveway took us 2 hours the first night getting up the driveway due to fresh gravel, the jeep kept slipping on the rocks, the other issue I had was the only heat in the house was a space heater which was okay just because we were in one room but if y ok had to stay in the other room you would freeze My wife and I had chlorine burns from way to much chlorine in the hot tub. There was the last people who stayed trash in the yard

Great retreat in the mountains
“Cozy Mountain Retreat - Highly Recommend!”Our stay at the mountain retreat was wonderful! The space was small, cozy, and perfectly nestled near nature and Bryson City, making it an ideal getaway. The hot tub, located just outside, was an absolute highlight—so relaxing and perfect after a day of exploring.While the AC wasn’t working upon our arrival, the ceiling fans kept the rooms comfortably cool, and there was a portable heater available as well. The host was incredibly communicative and helpful, which made the experience even better.If you’re looking for an affordable, cozy spot for a mountain vacation, this is the place to stay. Highly recommend!

Relaxing Mountain Getaway!
The little cabin is in a great location. Far enough in the woods to not hear cars on the main road and so you can enjoy the scenery, but only 15 minutes from Bryson City and the Nantahala Outdoor Center! We took a night ride on the Polar Express while we were in town, and it was nice to take a quick ride back to the cabin afterwards! The property owner, Troy, was very nice and responsive…and my kids loved meeting Ranger, Troy’s very sweet German Shepherd! The hot tub was a plus and, overall, we had a great stay in the mountains!

A very cozy cabin nestled in the mountain. Perfect for what we needed for the fall weekend. The view of the mountain from the deck is beautiful and a clear night sky. The host is absolutely wonderful. Close to Bryson City, Sylva, and Cherokee.

The vacation overall was so much fun! The owner was very helpful with instructions on how to get to the house and when needed. The house was very cozy! We were only an hour from Tennessee and the sight seeing was BEAUTIFUL!!
The drive way was super nerve racking if you’ve never been to the mountains before so it was great to know that you can Door Dash if needed!!
We definitely enjoyed our stay here!!

August stay
Overall cleanliness could've been better. Had to clean the kitchen floor when 1st arrived. Rugs needed to be vacuumed. No blind or curtain on main entrance door. You could tell something use to cover the window by the holes. All other windows had blinds. Bath towels and wash clothes had a light scent of cigarette odor. Never saw but kept hearing something run across the floor after we went to bed, possibly a mouse??? Location was very quiet.

Quick Weekend Getaway
This property was in a good location for day trip to Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge. It was good for what we needed. Cleaning could of been a better. It was nothing major but the rug in bedroom should just be tossed and some dusting. Also, more than 3 towels for 2 people for a weekend considering the hot tube usage as well. I would consider staying here again.

We came for the singing in the Smokies. We Didn't do much at the cabin except sleep and eat lunch. The air did go out while we were there but the situation was promptly rectified. It was very secluded.

Getaway
My partner and I wanted to go to the mountains and stay somewhere secluded and peaceful. This was perfect! We stayed two nights, everything was as listed. Small place, great for couple, view was beautiful, we enjoyed the hot tub and usage of the grill. We didn’t get a chance to use the fire pit but would have been very cozy. Host was very nice and helpful. We’re grateful to have been able to getaway here, really enjoyed our stay!
