Marilyn was a fantastic host. My wife and I had a great time celebrating our anniversary here, complete with a snow storm. This was a great place to get snowed in. Very comfortable and clean. We would love to stay here again with our family next time.

The host was amazing and "Johnny on the spot." Unfortunately, the HVAC went out the day we were to arrive. But the host jumped on the problem and the house was more than warm and cozy for our stay in spite of the 17 degree temperatures. Also want to note that the house was clean, beds were comfortable, and if you plan to cook like we did, it has EVERYTHING and then some that you might need.

The Host is so accommodating and genuinely kind. She made sure our stay was perfect in every way possible. The views are beautiful, the entire home is built for comfort and we also loved cooking on the high end gas stove and oven. We would have stayed longer if we didn't need to get back to the real world. We will deffinately be coming back! Thank you for making our stay so wonderful!

This was a very nice and clean getaway in the mountains. We loved everything about it! I didn't realize Sky Valley was in a great location either, but it's close to Highlands, Dillard and Franklin. And also it's very close to Otto, which has a good Thai restaurant with boba tea. There's also a pickleball court about a mile away where we played as a family and loved it. Very happy with Marilyn and The Canopy!

Family Fun and Relaxation

The Canopy was the perfect spot for my family this Summer. A hidden gem away from the hot, Summer sun but close enough to lots of adventures. My teenage kids, 14 (girl) and 17(boy) had a blast white water rafting, hiking around waterfalls, zip lining and touring the area. The hosts were the absolute sweetest and most accommodating we've ever experienced. Would definitely recommend and hope to go back soon!

Great place to stay

We stayed at The Canopy for a wedding at The Vineyards at High Holly. It was a great location just minutes away so it made everything so easy to get to. The house is just as pictured and was very clean and comfortable. We would definitely like to come back and visit the area again. Marilyn is very responsive to anything we asked and we felt right at home. Thank you so much for letting us stay!

Marilyn was so kind and accommodating from start to finish. Our stay was so last minute and yet she made everything work perfectly! The Canopy has everything you would ever need and is much more beautiful than the pictures could possibly portray. The gas outdoor fire pit is a nice addition and perfect for making s’mores (which we did). The place also has an indoor sauna, an elliptical machine, and other exercise equipment should one feel so inclined. Sky Valley is one of our favorite places partly because it is just minutes from Highlands, Dillard, Mountain City, Waterfalls, nice restaurants, hiking, etc. We love staying in places where things are not just attractive, but are clean, and comfortable. The Canopy is all that and more! We are looking forward to a return visit!

Amazing getaway in Sky Valley!

We had a wonderful stay at the canopy! Everything was nice and clean, the hosts were very accommodating, and the home offered plenty to do for a family of 6. Not to mention, it’s a short and scenic drive to places like the Highlands and other local attractions. I’ll definitely look this place up if we’re ever back in the area!
