Cabin was great, clean and creek was amazing! Difficult getting in touch through Evolve, didn’t get a return call from first person but when we finally got the name of Bill, he was great & helpful!
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at Freedom Cabin. The cabin was very clean and had a very homey feel to it. We would definitely recommend this cabin.
Very hard to find. Needs something on street with addresses. GPS can't find it. It was cozy and exactly what it shows online. We would stay there again.
Cabin was very clean. Cabin was supplied with everything. From dishes, pot holders, crockpot, pots pans everything!!!The creek was absolutely lovely.The only problem was the neighbor on the right side on Saturday run his powersaw and leaf plower all day and even after dark he actually wore a head lamp to see. He was right on the property line. It was a little bothersome but it didn't ruin our time there. It says on 25 acres but i dont no where the other 24 1/2 acres were located at. Had a great relaxing time. Will rent again!!

The good and bad
Other cabins are too close. Cleaning fee is higher than anyone else in this region. The stove needs attention. From other reviews it seemed no concerns had been addressed. We enjoyed the porch and the swing. The creek was lovely. It was a little difficult to get to, but we enjoyed its peaceful sound.
Beautiful area, nice and quiet. Cabin needs a little work. Oven was dirty, grease under the burners, and the burner protective dishes need to be replaced. Blinds on sliding doors were missing 12 slats. Left bed in loft needs to have the frame adjusted, bed kept falling through. Overall the cabin was very nice, we would consider staying there again.
Booked this for my parents wedding anniversary and it's exactly what they wanted. They loved the creek and the deck the most. This was in February and alot of the gift shops, welcome centers etc was all closed for the season. This was a disappointment about the area. The TV in cabin was tricky. My dad couldn't get it to work except for basic channels. Deff enjoyed the cabin and the scenery. I'm sure they will always treasure these memories

Not bad
Difficult to find in dark. Poor driveway. I did damage to front lip of my Porsche. All in all decent mountain cabin. Outdoor facilities need cleaning badly! Interiors were better, but a bit musty. Directions for WiFi connection are incorrect as well as the posted instructions on property. Property manager did not answer phone.
Don’t expect more than a decent place to stay.

A bit misleading
First, we did have a good time. However, we felt that the description was misleading. It said the house was on 25 acres, but failed to mention that there were houses on both sides, so no wondering around on all that acreage. We were also surprised to find that that the highway was so close. We could see the cars through the trees from the deck and it was quite noisy. The most disappointing thing was how hard it was to access the creek without going on another property. We had to climb over a pile of rocks. In addition, it is advertised that the property is 7 miles from downtown Tellico. We clocked it at 15 miles, which was about 20 minutes. We had specie plans for the weekend and had to modify, so we were disappointed.
We really needed some time away from having had a difficult year. We were looking to just get away from the world. This place was perfect for just the 2 of us! We loved the cabin!! Sitting on the swing and listening to the creek was just what we needed to relax. We felt like we had such nice privacy in the woods. We loved driving along out in the beautiful countryside! It was not far to see Bald River Falls!! We had a great lunch at Ironworks Grill! There were so many options to go do fun things close to the cabin but we didn’t have much time. We would love to come back some day and take a few more days off to sit and listen to the creek after we go enjoy some sight seeing! The cabin was well equipped and the bed was comfortable. We felt at home. The loft looks like a great place for some of our family to join us!
This property was clean, comfortable and in a great location.

Great Escape!!!!!
What a perfect time of year to visit this area. We have family close by. The Cabin was clean, cozy and comfortable.
Loved the view from our deck overlooking the creek. We picked up plenty of fall leaves to take home. We're from Florida so we don't see seasons. LOL
We would recommend this Cabin to anyone staying in this beautiful area. And we would certainly stay there again.
This cabin was perfect for my family for the weekend. I enjoyed our stay. We went to the waterfall close by. It was really beautiful

Secluded and romantic. Great place for just two or a group.
The place was private, beautiful and a great location. The only hitch was, somebody forgot to tell the cleaning staff we were coming and the linens were in the tub, beds were unmade and not ready for us. Once they were notified, they quickly came to tidey up and we were pleased with the cabin. A large and well stocked kitchen was a welcome sight. Sitting by the small creek with some wine was wonderful. We recommend it highly.
It was A really amazing place I had an awesome time the cabin was very nice it was in a really good spot I love the creek behind the house that was beautiful to sit out there and drink coffee on the porch swing and it was really well located all the sites that we went to see we’re not that far away it was an awesome experience
We picked up the grandson in Cleveland and spent 4 wonderful nights in Coker Creek. Campfires, lightning bugs, and fishing in the creek created a great change of pace for our family.
Awesome cabin and very good host. Thank you very Liz. We checked out Bald River Falls like you mentioned, definitely worth the trip.
I'll be back in August.
Thanks,

Our stay was so peaceful. Sitting on the porch listening to the creek was perfect. Hope to be able to come stay again soon.
