Cabin was clean and as listed. Easy to get to with a short commute to downtown Bryson City, but far enough away that it didnt feel like you were in town. Was a great stay!

Beautiful cabin with wonderful views

Our stay was wonderful. When we got there, we struggled to find the cabin, but they were super helpful and sent Zach to meet us. He took us right to our cabin. The area was beautiful, our children enjoyed being outside in the yard. The cabin was perfect for our family of six. It was stocked with everything you needed. We will definitely be back soon.

Best vacation rental I've had!

The location was perfect between Bryson and Cherokee! The place was very clean with upgraded bathrooms and kitchen. The extras they provided were a lovely touch. I loved the gates that were able to be put on the stairs to keep our little ones safe. I will definitely book this house again next time we go to the mountains! We had a great time playing corn holeCheokee

This property was beautiful. The cabin and the surrounding areas perfect. Our boys enjoyed playing in the yard. GPS directions were kind of messed up. But they were wonderful with helping us get to the cabin. We definitely be back.

Secluded

Be sure to get step by step directions before you leave home because the address on confirmation email IS NOT the address to Elk Crossing and web site says the office is open until 6:00pm we tried calling at 5:10pm and office was closed, called after hours number and took awhile for anyone to call me back. Rental was clean and nice once we found it!

Could not have been a more perfect cabin. Everything about it was just perfect.

I’ll be visiting this little piece of paradise often. The cabin was adorable & had everything we needed. Location is perfect! Views from the porch were stunning. I will be back!

Perfection Location!

We had such a good time - we went up to see snow and it did not disappoint. It had a couple of cabins on two sides of us but the way it was set up felt like we were still alone! Cabin was very nice and neat - beds were comfortable, kitchen was decently stocked. My ONLY two complaints were the sulfur smell from the water was beyond awful and the wi-fi/cell service is bad. IF either of these issues are fixable (may not be) it would definitely be something that would make all the difference in the world. As good as a time we had, we probably would not be back because of these two issues - the wifi is an importance (for us) due to our work schedule (we are business owners and the only way we can get away is if we can work remotely). Thank you for allowing us to visit your cabin - it is absolutely gorgeous and we did have a good time - I only mention the two complaints simply because it may be able to be fixed and be the absolute PERFECT home!!!
