Belated Bachelor Trip

This house was just about everything you could ask for in a vacation rental. Plenty of activities around the house and surrounding area. For us the proximity to the Cherokee Casino was the highlight of our trip. The only advice I have is to be sure you are ready to drive up some steep roads to reach the house.

Very clean with stunning views

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the layout is perfect for a large family. Our four teens were very comfortable in the basement setup. The property was very clean and the outside set up with hot tub and fire pit was very nice. If you plan to do much cooking, the aware that the kitchen is sparsely stocked. We had to go to Ingles to purchase aluminum pans for cooking casseroles, etc. The location of the cabin is very central to Bryson City as well as hiking, and outdoor activities, We would stay here again.

New years celebration and polar express

House is in dire need of upgrades. Everything is old and worn. Bad smell in basement but permeated through whole house. Very few exterior lights. Parking was a bear. Steep drive up 1-way road. Decks were so uneven and mix matched. Screen porch had furniture we wouldn’t even sit on bc it was mildewed and dirty. Not enough kitchen stuff. Plates silverware etc.

Disappointes

Disappointed in the amount of supplies like toilet paper, towels, coat hangers and other comforts of home. Kitchen had lots of pots pans and dishes but very few other kitchen condiments. Paid for extra firewood which was green and caused extra smoke in a fireplace setting off the smoke alarms. The fireplace needs to be clean. If property owner continues to rent during the winter months they should equip the home for cold weather with pump house heat and a generator

The house is beautiful. It does need updates but overall accommodated my family.

Pros - lots of room - plenty of bathrooms - large kitchen - pool table - beautiful view. Plenty of towels and blankets. Cons - fireplace needed to be cleaned, we got smoked out the first night and wasn’t able to use the fireplace. Damper was open. We had people that have allergies and The smoke really bothered them. When we first got there we had to wash the pans because they had rust on them. Need new pans. The shelf in the refrigerator kept falling out and leaked water on the floor. The gas stove knobs are mixed up. When you turn on the front (L) the (R) front came on if you turned it to far. The dishwashers bottom self comes out really fast and hits you in the shin if you don’t stop it. The dryer took 3 hours to dry clothes. The downstairs was freezing. There is only a wall unit and wasn’t able to keep up with the cold weather. We had 9 to 12 degrees on a couple of nights we were there. Had to shower upstairs because it was to cold downstairs. Had the heater on 80 and it was 62 at its highest. I know dogs are allowed but the carpets needed to be cleaned. (Not sure the spots are from dogs). There is a dog deposit which such help out with this cost. Big spots on the stairs going downstairs. Plus there was previous dog hairs on the cover of the pool table. Remember, people with allergies and just a little dog or cat hair can cause problems. There was also stains on the comforters upstairs. Again, with the cost of rental these should be taken care of. Didn’t have any cleaning supplies so bought our own. There was cobwebs and dust on the ceiling fans. Yes, the location and house are beautiful but a little attention is needed for this rental.

one of the best cabins I've ever been to

It was really a good experience. Extraordinary balcony view in the day and a fire place to chill in the night. Everybody loved the place after two nights of stay.
