PLEASE READ!

Before you pack up and head to the mountains, know that when we say mountains, we really mean it!
Dillsboro NC elevation starts at 1,975 feet. Think of this as your starting point. If you want to get a beautiful mountain view, you've gotta climb some mountains. Mountain roads are typically gravel, steeper, narrower and curvier than you may be use to driving. This is all part of our charm.
We do have one big hill to get up. It is gravel. We regularly drive a Hyundai Sonata up. While AWD vehicles make everything easier they are not required. Maintain an even speed (10mph) going up and you should have no issues.

*******No refunds will be given due to weather.*****

Items NOT provided: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, items of a personal nature. We do supply hand soap, dish soap, and starter laundry items.


****Please note this is a SMOKE FREE property. Ashtrays are provided outside on the porch. If the home smells of smoke, you may lose part/all of your damage deposit for additional cleaning & odor removal.***

*****This is a DOG friendly property, however we ask that you bring a kennel for your pet if you plan on leaving him/her alone at the house. We do charge a $45 non refundable fee for bringing your pet. If you are bringing your pet YOU MUST select the pet option at checkout. If you do not, it will taken from your damage deposit. ********** DOGS ONLY

My girlfriend and I came into Cherokee to visit a few days and let me start by saying this property was absolutely stunning! I’ve stayed in a lot of properties and this one tops the list by far! The pictures do absolutely no justice to how this property is in person! Highly recommend this cabin if in the area!

I absolutely loved this place! It was so peaceful and relaxing. The views were amazing. I enjoyed sitting on the porch every morning, with my coffee, enjoying the Mountain View. The place was very very clean and had everythingI needed. The beds were very comfortable. The check in process was easy. I highly recommend this place.

This cabin is called the Allitude adjustment but for me it and it's view was an attitude adjustment. The views! Love! But what really impressed me was the quality of the finishes, the solidness of the sturcture and the thoughtful details found through out. It was built with love and to be used by people who love it. Not just a cheap rental property used and abused with finishes cheap and good enough. All of that attention made it a very comfortable place you can happily spend days relaxing in. And did I mention thoses views?!? Love!

Really enjoyed the stay. View across the valley was fantastic. Able to quietly enjoy reading on the deck. Bed was super comfortable; internet worked flawlessly - which meant the television worked flawlessly, too. Overall, this was just a great stay and I would recommend this host and site to anyone.

First impression..... was surprised to the drive up to the property. Once i figured out the driveway then it was okay. The cabin was beautiful and a great view. Clean, very well furnished with every thing a couple would need for their stay. Good location to Bryson City, Whittier, Cherokee and other cities.

Mountain Getaway
Beautiful, clean, charming little cabin. Absolutely perfect for me and my husband. The porch was perfect for watching the sunset over the mountains. This cabin was in the best location to explore the cutest town of Waynesville. Boojum brewing Company was excellent. Both the beer and the food was delicious! The shopping was great. Hiking and waterfalls are located near the cabin. This cabin will be a perfect place to see the colors in the fall. I will definitely stay here again.

Highway nearby
Water both kitchen and bath dangerously hot. Mattress in bedroom unbearably uncomfortable, needed to sleep in car for 3 of the 5 nights. Pillows mushy. Pictures portrayed a cabin in wilderness, but nearby highway prevented hearing birds and quiet nature. Owner was kind to offer to move to quieter location, but would've had to have checked out earlier than planned.

Amazing Views & Cabin!
This property was a perfect one. The location was close to civilization, but it was our own private oasis on the mountain. The views were amazing, the cabin new and clean. They had everything we needed and/or forgot to bring with us stocked in the cabin. Morning coffee on the porch or in the chair in the living room was awesome. The road up was easily navigated with my AWD, but I didn’t feel like I needed it necessarily. Owners were responsive and communicated well! Would certainly come back here without hesitation.

The cabin was exactly what we were looking for. Great views and everything we needed for a comfortable stay! The location is perfect- secluded enough to feel in the woods, while still being close to everything. The owners were quick to resolve an issue that a massive storm caused. Highly recommend!

Views were everything!
It was very convenient to Sylva and the Smoky Mountains. Our 4WD made the road up much easier. The views were amazing and we loved having our dinner on the covered front porch. We didn’t make a fire but loved the fire pit area. It was very clean and private. Only negative is there is a bit of road noise. That may not bother many but we live near road noise and were hoping to get away from it. Still- I would recommend this property.
