We were in the area for Bronco Off-Roadeo and this cabin met all our needs. It was 12 mins from our event, surrounded by nature and was probably the cleanest cabin we’ve ever been in. Communication from the host was top notch and our stay was very comfortable.

Beautiful cabin in a great location for exploring Tennessee! All of the personal touches were so thoughtful and welcoming. Great central location for our adventures with beautiful surroundings to just relax and enjoy nature on the porch or by the fire. Truly, they thought of everything! :) PS driving to and from the cabin is an experience in and of itself

Our little family of four stayed for the week and it was the perfect spot to relax. A very comfy stay. The cabin was really clean and home-y. Our host was nearby but we only ever saw them once and it was when he made a point to wave and check in about wifi service. They were super nice and communicative. My partner thoroughly enjoyed the proximity to the tail of the dragon. The views, in general, were awesome as well. Would love to come back!

My two teenagers, my husband and I stayed here so we could be close to The Tail of the Dragon for the week. The location was perfect for that. The cabin was the perfect size for us, the host was super friendly, and having some groceries in the fridge when we arrived was super helpful and appreciated. Highly recommend this cabin!

The cabin was very easy to find. The place was extremely clean and was exactly as described. The hosts were very kind and accommodating. I had no issues getting an answer from them if I had any questions. It was also a perfect location to get to the Tail of the Dragon and Foothills Parkway. I would definitely stay here again.

Place was great — clean, comfortable, had everything we needed. Matched the listing, no surprises. Greg and Amy were great hosts — easy to communicate with, quick to respond, and just genuinely nice people.Location worked perfectly for what we were doing (relaxing and riding motorcycles), and everything we needed was right there. Would absolutely stay again and recommend it without hesitation.Thanks Greg and Amy!

Place was great for what we needed it for. Spent the weekend to ride the tail of the dragon and surrounding areas. This little cabin is conveniently located minutes from the dragon. Parking is great and enough space for full size pickup and 14ft trailer. Garage to park bikes inside at night, perfect.

Was a little surprised to find no full size oven, however the toaster oven did the trick for what we needed. Also there isn’t much privacy between bedrooms, was fine for us, may not be for others. Had a great stay and will definitely consider another stay in the future!

Absolutely great cabin, very peaceful and quiet. We road motorcycles in and were able to fit 3 full dressers in the garage. Friendly host that we met and discovered that we all work in the same industry. Would definitely recommend for riders coming in to ride the famous roads, and the not so famous ones. I would however recommend if your coming in on bikes do your best to arrive before dark. Happy valley road is pretty twisty with a substantial elevation change.

There were three adults in our party and we stayed four nights. We came to the area to ride The Tail of The Dragon. This property is in a great location with easy access o TOTD. We had plenty of room for a large truck and a 12’ trailer and also use of the garage to put our bikes away at night. It is in a fairly secluded and very quiet location on the TN side of the Dragon. You will also see wildlife roaming the property. We saw turkey and deer. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed in kitchen and bath. Also the checkin and checkout process were both very simple.We appreciated the host checking on us the first morning we were there. All in all I’d say I would come right back if in that area again.

It was a little confusing finding the Vrbo. As we followed the gps directions we only seen a gate that had house #123. However, we continued pass the gate. There was a big house and what looked like a garage from the side. The numbers on the side of the garage were easy to over look. It would be very helpful if the numbers were on the gate too so that people would not feel like they were trust passing. I feel that the description on Vrbo should clarify that the bedrooms are not very private. So if you are looking for privacy I would not recommend this cabin. The host was very friendly and answered our questions immediately. We enjoyed the fresh eggs, bacon, milk, butter, water bottles, and Little Debbie blueberry muffins. Over all I would stay there again.

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin. It was spotless, beautifully maintained, and you can tell the owners put so much care into every little detail. They truly thought of everything you could possibly need, which made the whole trip feel easy and comfortable.We ended up in a bit of a predicament during our stay, and the hosts went way above and beyond to help us. They didn’t hesitate for a second; they were kind, patient, and genuinely invested in helping us. You don’t always find that kind of kindness when traveling, and it honestly meant so much to us.The cabin itself was peaceful, cozy, and perfect for unwinding. Between the thoughtful touches and the incredible hospitality, this was one of the best experiences we’ve had. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-cared-for getaway.
