We had a great stay overall. The home was exactly as described, and the location was perfect and accurately listed for the town. Everything was comfortable and met our expectations. The only issue was that the towels had a strong unpleasant smell, so we ended up buying our own. Aside from that, everything else was great. Would definitely stay again.

What an incredible relaxing stay! Wanted to get away from the grind of the rat race and this is exactly what we needed! Close enough to civilization yet remote enough to let yourself enjoy some solitude. Beautiful, clean and comfortable! We felt right at home the moment we walked in to the cabin. More than enough room for a large family or multiple couples. Highly recommend!!!

This cabin was an excellent base for visiting with our family members who were hiking the Appalachian Trail. It was located between Fontana Dam where we picked them up and Bryson City where we shopped and ate a lot! The cabin was clean and cozy. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. It was so nice to be able to bring our dog and the driveway was very accessible and not too steep. Jackie was an excellent, responsive host. We would definitely return to this cabin!

Jackie is a wonderful host. She relied quickly when I asked questions. Our grandchildren loved the hot tub and there were plenty of places for them to hide when playing hide and seek. The greatest was the wood burning fireplace and being dog friendly. The cabin was close to downtown which was also a good point

This cabin was perfect for our family of five and our dog! It was spotless, comfortable, and very well-stocked. We especially appreciated the cozy sofas and abundance of blankets—they were ideal for snuggly family movie nights and relaxing after long days. The location is fantastic for mountain activities: we enjoyed dog walks and the incredible convenience of horseback riding right across the street. Highly recommend for a comfortable and memorable family getaway.

Girls trip to the mountains for the weekend. Cute cabin, nice hot tub, fun fire pit. Not far from Bryson City and the train. One bedroom is downstairs and the only bathroom downstairs is in thru the bedroom. 2 bedrooms and a bathroom are upstairs. There are quite a few stairs to get up to the front door - in case you are going with elderly people or anyone with disabilities. Definitely recommend staying.

We set the bar high when we planned our trip. Our twins had never seen snow so for Christmas we decided to take them to N. Carolina near The Great Smokey Mtns. We thought if it didn’t snow there might be some at least on the mtn tops. We selected this cabin because it didn’t have a steep driveway but we were thrilled when we pulled into the driveway. As soon as we turned off the car snow flurries were landing on the windshield. We could’ve gone home right then as our girls were thrilled. It only lasted about 5 minutes & there was no accumulation but it was pure magic to our girls! We went in the cabin & the posted pictures on VRBO did not do it justice. It was warm, cozy and inviting. Our hostess checked on us shortly after we arrived & provided a notebook with little things like where to find more blankets, instructions for the hot tub & thermostat. A reminder in the kitchen to leave the water dripping (since we are from Florida it was helpful!) She included places in Bryson City with different types of food. The cabin was only about a 30 min drive to Cherokee & The Great Smokey Mtns. There was wood for the fire pit & the fireplace. She included some info about warm weather fun too! We hope to return next year in warmer weather to give rafting & ziplining a try. We did get snow one night & our girls got to make snowballs. We did the Smokey Mtn Railroad & would love to do it again in the fall when the leaves turn colors. We certainly hope this cabin will be available then!
We got to see snow!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It was cozy, clean, and very comfortable, making it the perfect home base for our family. The kids especially enjoyed the games that were available, which kept them entertained during downtime.After long days of whitewater rafting and hiking, the hot tub was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We also appreciated how welcoming the cabin was for our dog, making it easy for the whole family to enjoy the trip together.The location was excellent—close to whitewater rafting adventures and numerous hiking trails, making it convenient to explore the beautiful surrounding area. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would happily return!

My family of 8 (4 adults and 4 kids) had a wonderful stay here! It was close to everything we wanted to explore and had endless entertainment of games for us as we waited to ring in the new year. It fit us all very comfortably and our host, Jackie, was amazing at replying to our questions. The hot tub was also a favorite and was very clean. We would 100% come back!

Convenient location to Lake Fontana

It had been raining all day when we got to the property. The forecast called for more rain during our stay. Fortunately, the weather cleared up, and the sun came out for our entire stay. We rented a pontoon from Almond Boat and on the following day, we went to the Fingerlake day use park. We enjoyed the lake and had a fantastic time. We also saw the most beautiful sunset down the hill, a short walk from the property. There’s so much to do within a short distance from the cabin that we never turned on the TV. We really appreciated the convenient location.
