Cabin was clean and comfortable. Location was peaceful but close enough to Bryson City that it was easy to get things if you needed to. The description did mention that water accessibility depended on the lake water levels. We had 3 days of rain which would have let us drop in there to paddle but there was a big debris/trash log jam that blocked the access for us. The way the water moves there explains it to a degree, but it seems like it had been there for a long time. A rewrite on the description might be beneficial. But the cabin and hot tub were great.

Deb, Thank you for informing us about the log jam, we're sad to see it disrupted your kayaking option. We're glad to see it didn't stop you from enjoying the hot tub and the remainder of your vacation.

Week at Kingfishers Roost

We had an excellent week at Kingfishers Roost. The rental was outstanding and had everything we needed. The location was the perfect balance of seclusion with a quick drive into Bryson City. The river was beautiful!

-the house was nice. Not realizing there was another house right beside us. Now looking back in the photos, i see a slight picture of it. -the house was clean, besides spiderwebs everywhere. Laying on the couch, i had spiders on me. -the back porch hadn't been cleaned in a while. -the water was too low to really enjoy the water/view. -the hottub was fine. -bed was super comfortable. -tv/wifi was barely used due to constantly buffering and going down.

Abby, We are sorry to see that your experience was not up to our usual stellar guest experience. Unfortunately WIFI can be spotty in the area, in the future be sure to reach out and we can attempt to assist with a rest of the router. I'm incredibly sorry to see about the spider webs and will inform our housekeeping supervisor immediately. We hope this experience does not deter you from staying with us again in the future.

My wife and I decided to do something different this year and get away for Thanksgiving. Found this cabin online and really like the idea of the fire pit near the water. This was not the most inexpensive option available but was definitely enjoyable and very well appointed.
