We had two families staying here and we throughly enjoyed our stayed. It was a beautiful property and in an excellent location. The kids enjoyed playing in the creek and roasting marshmallows in the outdoor fireplace, while the adults enjoyed drinking coffee under the pavilion, listening to the fire crackle and the birds chirping. We hiked down the AT to Laurel Falls waterfall and enjoyed the day on Sunday exploring all the beauty nearby. The cabin itself was a perfect set up, clean, and so relaxing. We especially loved enjoying each others company and watching the kids use their imaginations outdoors without the distraction of television or electronics. It was a perfectly unplugged weekend! The hosts were wonderful to communicate with and extremely hospitable. We will definitely be re-booking the cabin for a future family trip. ##### Karah C. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jessica R. 17 May 2019 #### Absolutely Beautiful! My family and I stayed for 3 nights here and we really enjoyed the stay. Our goal was to disconnect to reconnect as a family and not did we! No signal whatsoever so we were definitely not on our phones. The house is so cozy and the outdoors just so relaxing. We fished, played board games, ping pong, played outdoors, made some s’mores, it was really nice. Areas of concern: the drive up can be very tedious, and I wish the stores were closer by. If you want to go out, there aren’t really many attractions. But if you want to stay in and just relax, this is the place for you! ##### Jessica R.

Pictures do not do it justice! The cabin sits in a valley with a small creek across the way. Perfect pavilion with a fireplace that came in handy on those cold evenings. Very serene. The cabin itself is beautiful! Attention to detail in every way. Very clean and well maintained. The road to the cabin is not for the faint of heart. Very mountainous and curvy, but worth it!The owner/manager was quick in response with any concerns we had. We would definitely rent this beautiful cabin again in the future. ##### Janine K.

I am used to short-term rentals looking great in photographs and then turning out to be poorly maintained dumps. This one was quite the opposite. It was clean, well provisioned, and in every way. We will stay here again! One note: the toilet paper could use a serious upgrade. ##### Jesse B.

There was plenty of beds, lovely kitchen and living room and our favorite was the outdoor fireplace area. Everything we needed was there. We had evening fires, played games, cooked s’mores and just enjoyed visiting. The only thing that would have been nicer was if the grass had been cut before we arrived. We played a game of softball in the big open yard, which was loads of fun! It’s a great place we would loved to visit again. ##### Kari P.

Our family celebrated Easter at this beautiful cabin and loved every moment of it! If you’re interested in replacing the iPhone, WiFi and TV’s for laughter, conversation, nature, relaxation, privacy, making memories then don’t hesitate to book this beautiful oasis. The cabin layout was ideal for our children and grandchildren. Our grands range from 5 to 12 years old and enjoyed climbing up the ladder to their sweet bunking quarters and had no issue navigating it. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and dining ware. Food City is only 15-20 minutes away for your grocery needs. The grounds are breathtaking - perfect for kickball, wiffle ball, lounging in hammocks, fishing in the creek, Easter egg hunts and s’mores making. Try to arrive in daylight as the road leading to the cabin is a bit narrow and winding. We were sad to leave and hope to return again. ##### Michele N.

We planned and looked forward to this trip for months. We had a group of 10 adults that had the best time. We went in January, so it was pretty cold. And when they mean no service, it’s no service. I have sprint and I got enough bars to make a call out if you walk towards the road from the house. The drive up is a very very windy mountain. It gets foggy at night, so make sure you’ve got good lights on your car. When we went, the mountains were covered in snow and it was breathe taking. They have a self serve coffee bar (complete with beans), a good amount of kitchen gadgets, plates and all the dishes, and some essentials like salt and pepper. Plenty of bedding and towels were stored in the closets. The house stayed really warm at night, and overall it was the perfect place for us to stay. We look forward to booking it again! ##### Addie L. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chelsea M. 27 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location #### Sutherland Wedding.

Easy check-in, great communication, amazing house and grounds. For full disclosure, there is no internet and no cellphone signal, but that made the property even more appealing to us (we had lots of teen and pre-teen boys that were forced to disconnect).

We disconnected from the rest of the world (I.e., no Wi-Fi, no TV and no cell service at the house) but lots and lots of talking, relaxing, hiking, game playing, playing in the creek, fishing, and of course, eating! Of course there were many short trips to the top of the mountain to check phones, etc., and not just for the teenagers! The location is beautiful and private and the house is awesome! It met our needs and so much more. We will be back for sure! ##### Julie T.

We had an excellent time at this BEAUTIFUL rental location. The owner and the property manager were very responsive and answered any questions and responded to any needs we had. The rooms were all beautifully and simply decorated with plenty of blankets and pillows. I would say, for our family, the loft was not great for the kids but it was not a problem and we had plenty of space for them to sleep elsewhere! The creek was a hit for the kids in our family, ages 2-5, and I would recommend bringing water shoes as it is very rocky in most places, we also made our kids wear life jackets that we brought. The hike was beautiful and a great challenge for our family with 5 little children! The house was superb, with little things here and there that showed the owner's obvious desire to make his guest's stay comfortable. The showers had shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in a nice dispenser, there was a pack 'n play, a highchair, nice hand soap, a nice coffee bar, TONS of games, great music to listen to, etc. I would certainly stay here again! ##### Jill Z.
