Beautiful Cabin
This cabin was exactly as described. It was a beautiful cabin inside and out in a peaceful setting by the river. Cabin was immaculately clean on the inside and to our surprise was decorated with the most beautiful woodsy themed Christmas decorations and tree when we arrived the first week in November. Communication with the host was quick and most helpful, as she even sent ideas on things to do in the area and places to eat. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. This was our first time booking through vrbo and we couldn't have been more satisfied with our choice. This was the most beautiful, perfect cabin and location for the first getaway without children in over 24 years for my husband and me.

Jennifer is everything you want in a host! She’s quick to reply and the absolute kindest! The cabin is beautiful! Whether you’re going with family or want something romantic, it’s the perfect place to stay. I booked this for my mother in law’s birthday and Jennifer took the time to put out the cutest happy birthday sign. You’ll be so close to town and there’s a ton to do. You won’t regret booking this cabin!!!

The cabin was just as nice as we could have asked for. Very well equipped, beautifully decorated, gorgeous view and comfortable. Simply because we are not accustomed to mountain living, we would have preferred easier access - at least a wider road in and out, but even that was truly an experience we will always remember.

Would have been nice to have a trail to see the water
The place was nice and clean. We thought the mattress was hard, and the sofa and chairs were hard too. It would also have been nice to have a clearer view of the water. The driveway was a little scary but we are not used to driving in the mountain's. Overall it was as it looked.

Beautiful private cabin that is away from all the busy of tourism. Having a fully stocked kitchen was a life saver and a pocket book saver. We also had a kitty visit us one evening to say hi. But was a quiet getaway we wanted for our honeymoon.

Close but not to close
The location for us was great. We usually stay in Cherokee but enjoyed being right outside this time. Loved the seclusion of the cabin and privacy. The cabin felt like home. It had everything we needed and more. A bonus was the provided firewood because ours got wet from rain the day before arrival. The neighborhood picnic area was quiet and relaxing but wasn't really ideal for swimming for the kids. They got plenty of swimming in the river though! The hot tub was relaxing. It does take 5-10 minutes to get to the cabin once your off the main highway. The cabin overall was nice and quaint. Would definitely recommend staying.

I liked the atmosphere and the remote location. The house was quaint and had everything we needed. The only problem we had was that the spa/hot tub wasn't functioning correctly. The owner and I pretty much played message tag for 3 days. Never got it checked out but she did apologize and refunded us $50 off of our stay.

Great get a away cabin!
The cabin was absolutely wonderful! If you're looking for a peaceful place this is it! We didn't have to have 4x4 to get there either however......it is a single car road all the way back there and the driveway does drop down a good bit. But it was fine. We had a great time!

Peaceful Retreat
This cabin is ideal for a relaxing, peaceful adventure! It was the perfect size for my family and had everything we needed for the week. I've rented many places over the years and this cabin had the best stocked kitchen I have seen yet! The hot tub with the beautiful view was a big hit and we enjoyed dinner by the fire pit...who doesn't love smores even in 80 degree weather! Jennifer was quick to answer any questions I had and we would definitely rent this cabin again! The road in is narrow, but luckily we only met one oncoming vehicle during our trip. We really enjoyed being a quick drive into Bryson City in one direction and a quick drive into Cherokee in the other direction!
