Quiet Mountain Retreat

We really enjoyed our time here. We slept like babies in the comfy beds! We spent mornings and evenings on the deck taking in the view-gorgeous! During the day, it’s a short drive to Bryson City with all its cute shops and tasty restaurants! Loved it!

The views from this cabin were beautiful. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Excellent directions. Plenty of wood for fires. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub and at night watched the stars come out. Hot dog sticks were great making delicious hotdogs over the fire. We heard a barred owl a couple of nights and saw deer on the road in. Excellent restaurants in the area.

Beautiful views, very well equipped cabin. It is a beautiful place, however it needs new windows on the main living area desperately. Loved the location. We will be back if in the area.
