My wife and our two Chocolate Labs just returned from staying at this wonderful home for a week long vacation. The home is everything we were looking for - beautiful accomodations, wonderful secluded setting, close to outdoor activities and a very, very relaxing atmosphere. We especially enjoyed spending time watching sunsets and sunrises out on the deck. Our dogs loved the hiking and even swimming in the river nearby, as well as the freedom to explore the roads around the cabin on our walks. The owners have gone out of their way to provide their guests with very nice furnishings and many little "extras" that made our stay a great experience - thank you!. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful Mountain Getaway!

After spending many hours looking for a cabin to spend a long weekend near whitewater rafting, I found this Wesser Heights cabin and found everything I was looking for (mountain view, hot tub, fire pit, game room, and wifi). Upon arriving at the cabin it was all I expected and so much more! Each couple (3) had their own bedroom and bathroom with a perfect balance of privacy and group activity. We gathered at the dining room table for dinner and around the fire pit in the evening. The activities we participated in were all within a very short drive included hiking, horseback riding, canopy tour, and whitewater rafting. Mid October with all of the leaves changing was a perfect time to be there. If you are not happy at this cabin, you are not happy anywhere!

Our family stayed at the Nantahala Cabin in Wesser Heights and it was perfect for us. Every detail had been attended to of by the owner and the rental agent was so helpful with anything we needed. We will stay again next year and can't think of a better place -- and we looked while we were there and found it the best.

Owner response:Thank you! Springtime in the Smokeys is really beautiful, isn't it? We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, and look forward to seeing you again next year.

As per my 8 year old grandson, "this house was worth the nine hours in the car." His 8 year old cousin said "best house I have ever been in." The boys -- ages 4, 6, 8 and 8 -- really enjoyed the Ruby Gem Mines, Lake Fontana (swing rope into lake), and trout fishing. They all caught trout at Tumbling Waters Campground! Some of us went whitewater rafting with WildWaters at the Ocoee River -- adults only as you will go on multiple Class IV rapids. We all went tubing at Deep Creek; the older kids and the adults loved it, the 4 year old did not at all! We all want to come back for our next three-generation family vacation.

From the Cabin Guestbook: What an awesome experience! The cabin is so nice that it was hard to break away to do other stuff. We rafted the Nantahala and it was a blast! The river is both fun and safe. And you have to do the Canopy Tour (zipline). It's a great experence and the course is beautiful. Don't the the cost get you as it's 2-1/2 hours of thrills and fun. To sum it up, we had a wonderful family week and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the most fantastic cabin.

Left the husband and dogs at home this trip and came up with my yoga buddies for our Second Annual Yoga Retreat. Five great classes in four days! (If anyone needs a rundown on the yoga studios in the area, just email me.) Already looking forward to coming back up next month with Robbbie and the dogs to enjoy the fall colors. Debra (Owner)

From the Cabin Guestbook: Great views from the deck and you can't help but relax! This is by far the most well-appointed rental home we've ever stayed in -- the kitchen had everything we needed. Can't wait to bring my sister and her girls next time! We'll be back!

From the Cabin Guestbook: We had a wonderful time on our first trip to the Great Smokys. This cabin couldn't have been any nicer. Everything that we needed (and more) was right here at our fingertips. We are planning our next trip -- we can't wait!

From the Cabin Guestbook: We set out to find a great mountain cabin to enjoy with our two children and our dog during school break. The only problem was that we were a little late looking, and most of the attractive "pet friendly" cabins were booked. We had pretty much given up hope when we stumbled across Wesser Heights! Wow, were we glad that we found this wonderful place! Our family has had the best family vacation yet. Our kids (ages 7 & 9) both agreed that our week here in the mountains was even better than our trip to Disney World. That says a lot coming from them! We loved this area and this wonderful cabin and are already talking about coming back soon!

July 2009. This is a very nice home. Comfortably furnished, including a king-sized bed. Good kitchen. Great view of the Smokies and close to Nantahala Gorge and many hiking trails. And the owners accept pets. Among the nearby sites worth visiting are the model train museum (with 7,000 plus trains and an operating three-tier platofrm) in Bryson City and the Cherokee Museum in Cherokee.

Owner response:We're so glad you enjoyed your stay at the cabin! We were up there earlier this month and had a great time -- we particularly enjoyed watching the fireflies at night. For future reference, we have changed property managers, and as part of that change, we will no longer charge an addtional pet fee. Just let us know in advance that's you're bringing your pet. Best regards, Debra and Robbie

Great House, Great Weather & Great Times. The cabin was a great retreat after a long day of exploring all the hiking and site seeing activities. It had everything anyone could ask for. We hope we are fortunate enough to return here many times in the future and continue to add to our great memories. Thanks for providing such a wonderful place for us to get away.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The peaceful quiet that surrounds us in the mountains is almost deafening at first. Hiking was the highlight, the views spectacular. We thank you for sharing you well equipped and beautiful home with us. Great eats at Jimmy Mac's & Anthony's Pizza!
