Cozy, Quaint, Comfortable, Clean
Exceeded any expectations. We were greeted by a cute "fireplace" that was glowing in the darling main room. A super unexpected surprise awaited me, wishing me a happy 60th birthday. Cozy bed, clean bathroom/laundry facilities. Treats were placed around in clever containers and the dishes were so cute. The Banty Rooster is a special place. The owners make their guests feel special and they really put thought and care into everything. Loved it ;-)

Perfect mountain getaway
First off all we loved that the property was just far enough out to feel like we got away from it all but still had plenty of restaurants and shopping in the nearby town. Didn’t mind the lack of cell service. The WiFi made it to where we could keep up with family back home. The whole purpose of the trip was to unplug and recharge and that’s exactly what we got. Plus the added bonus of a flock of wild turkeys in the backyard every morning while I was having my coffee was cool. Our hosts were quick to help and easy to get in touch with For the very minor problems we ran into.

Beautiful but not used
I booked this for the weekend of my son’s wedding for them to have privacy and be close to the venue. They called me the morning of the 7th and said they had no heat or hot water. So I contacted the host and they went home to try and get ready for the wedding. My husband had contact with the host but t being that it was the day of the wedding it was quite later when we told our kids that the cabin was ready. They realized that they had left their medication at home so had to go home and just decided to stay there. I contacted the host and explained I thought they would have offered them a free night at a later time but was not offered anything. I know it was miscommunication on both sides and the weather was unseasonably cold, but I had told them for the time I booked it that it was for my son and future daughter in law.

Unwind and relax
We so enjoyed our stay at the Banty Rooster! With the WiFi we did not miss out on much, but it was so nice to not receive as many calls/texts as normal. My husband and I celebrated our 11th anniversary. Tammy left us wine and flowers for our arrival.
The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. We were able to drive into town at Hot Springs, NC for live music at The Big Pillow Brewery and then took at dip at the Hot Springs Resort. We enjoyed breakfast at The Smoky Mountain Diner and Fox Den Restaurant. Also, we had a delicious steak at Fox and Hounds Restaurant.
We truly enjoyed the rural and slower pace! We even made it to an estate sale up the road and found a couple of great finds!
Thanks again to Eric and Tammy for being such gracious hosts and sharing this treasure with us!

Beautiful, Rustic Cabin
The cabin is very beautiful and smells of fresh wood throughout. All the features of the cabin are very nice to the kitchen, living room, bedroom, shower and bathroom. The hottub and deck are also so nice with lights and a privacy fence. The next door property is close but was never an issue and so we felt alone and safe. A wonderful home away the bustle of it all. Hot Springs was within 30 minutes and so I recommend getting a reservation to soak in the springs and also go to the quaint, delicious restaurants downtowm in Hot Springs. Great vacation! The owners left us treats and a sign that made up feel so welcomed and tons of helpful information on the cabin, A/C unit, wifi, TV, etc.

Anniversary Weekend
Awesome cabin, great host! Super clean and well maintained, online pics don’t do the the property justice. Walked in and there’s flowers for our anniversary and a bucket full of treats. I don’t trust yelp so I messaged the host late at night for food suggestions and I got a message back in less than 10 minutes. Will definitely be back next year!

Beautiful and cozy
My husband and I stayed here for a small weekend getaway. The cabin was so cute and cozy. Very clean and smelled so good. We fell in love with this cabin in a remote location away from almost everything. We finally used the hot tub on our last night and was amazing. Eric and Tammy were such great hosts and communicated so well with us.
Only an hour from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
We loved it and plan to come back again! Thanks so much for your hospitality’

Perfect getaway
The cabin was very nice. It was the perfect get away. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Wish we had booked for longer. Only thing I would do is add Wi-Fi just to help with looking for things to go out and do and incase people need to stay in touch with others at home. Since there is little to no service at the cabin. Other than that it couldn’t have been anymore perfect! Would definitely come back again.
