We came together from various states to be together for the Christmas holiday. I was immediately impressed with this home, from the thoughtful gifts left for us, to how fully stocked the home is. The decorations were beautiful and your hospitality was beyond words! The kids enjoyed the grinch decorations, the games in the bunk room, jacuzzi, axe throwing, swing, fishing, and the canoe. We never heard a peep of them being bored! The beds were very comfortable and no details were missed! Your home was truly magical and we thank you for sharing it with us.

Spent a long weekend at Twin Ponds Retreat and it was perfect! Very quiet and exceptionally clean. We spent time fishing the pond where we caught 15-20 bass, played two great golf courses (Sequoia National was beautiful), and going to Harrah’s. The location is perfect and not too far from all of the surrounding activities. The host was also very welcoming and answered any and all questions I had in an extremely timely manner. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a convenient home base to all that Cherokee and the surrounding areas have to offer! ##### Will S.

We almost never leave reviews and if we do, they are usually not positive. But I am just so impressed with this property and Debbie/Dean that I had to post this review. You will not be disappointed. They have thought of everything down to details that other VRBO owners never even think of such as bars of soap, backup security codes, and other details that are noticed, appreciated, and impressive. You guys could give seminars on how to do a vacation property. Thanks so much for your care and heart in providing us your home for vacation rental to us. If we ever come back to Smokey Mountains, you will be my first call! ##### Jeff J.

Many people refer to the Twin Ponds Retreat as the “Ritz-Carlton of the Smoky Mountains.” And considering the closest Ritz is 150 miles away in Atlanta, you’d be looking at one heck of a commute to explore all of the exciting adventures that the mountains have to offer. Oh and good luck trying to fit you, your 10 closest friends, and your weird uncle Andy, all into one reservation at the Ritz. Twin Ponds was incredibly clean, offered all of the kitchen amenities needed to satisfy Gordon Ramsay, and had plenty of games and activities to escape to for when Gordon blows his lid. Also, the amount of extra pillows, bed sheets, and towels provided could have probably stocked the Superdome after Hurricane Katrina blew through the South in 2005\. And did I mention the bath robes!? Honestly, the best stay we’ve had in the area, after years of coming to Whittier to raft the Tuckaseegee - and we were only 5 minutes from the river! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Allyn B. 31 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### AMAZING customer service The customer service at this location is PHENOMENAL! From the moment I booked, I felt truly welcomed. They were able to accommodate a special request that I had and they got back to me within 24 hours even over Christmas holidays. We chose this house because my mom was worried about staying in the winter up a mountain...this was low enough on the mountain that wasn't a worry and still had beautiful views. When I arrived there was a welcome note and basket. My mother just kept saying she loved the thoughtful touches throughout the home. We started saying that my mom was becoming besties with Deb. Everything that we needed was right there. There are fishing poles for the pond, a hot tub with tv, an ax throwing game, a stocked game room with an arcade machine, pool table and skee ball. The kids kept saying, "Will we come back here?" When we checked out, my daughter was upset because she left a stuffy there. Before I could mention it to the host, she texted me to ask if it was ours, and SENT IT BACK to our house (free of charge) the very next day. I just cannot believe the level of hosting that occurred here. It just went over and beyond what you would ever imagine at a VRBO. Thank you Deb for inviting us so warmly into your home. ##### Allyn B. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ---
