Great cabin in an excellent location. This place has everything you need! Just sit back and enjoy the peacefulness of the mountains and watch the horses run in the field across the small drive. Well stocked cabin and the beds are very comfortable! We will be staying here agian!

Thank you so much for staying with us, Dean, and for the kind words about the location and how well-stocked the property was — we're so glad it had everything you needed for your trip! We also appreciate you flagging the water pressure, and as noted, we're already working on getting that improved so future guests have an even better experience. Hope to host you again soon!

The cabin was clean and cozy. The location was great for activities we had planned for our trip. While we didn't cook during our stay, the kitchen was well stocked. The beds were comfortable. We loved the large bath towels as well. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

This place is great. We gambled at the Casino during the day and crashed here at night. Great spot and much cheaper than staying at the Casino.

The little extras were such a pleasant surprise such as the smores station. There was plenty of the essentials such as dishwashing supplies, paper products, etc. Not skimpy as the norm. Thank-you!!!

I never stayed at this property, so I cannot really say anything about it. However, I did book it and had a last-minute death in the family. THEY WOULD NOT EVEN REFUND THE CLEANING FEE! Sorry for your loss. I'll just keep all your money. Rules are rules and common decency is uncommon.

Hi Denny you were given the option to cancel and a refund for any dates we could rebook. However you never cancelled. You also declined the offered travel insurance at time of booking that would have covered such an incident.

Will be back

I am apart of a group of friends that have been making this trip to Cherokee for 16 years now. We have rented different places looking for that one place to call "home". We have found it. The location was perfect. Less then 10 minutes to the casino. Beautiful scenery. Beautiful house that accommodated 6 adults perfectly. Absolutely loved this place and look forward to renting it again.

Nice place and location for where we wanted to be. Just a few things that I would like to see when renting a place. Mirror in the bedroom, while sharing a bathroom this would make it easier for female adults to get ready. Fire pit area needs to be free of yard debris/ leaves especially if you cannot see the cabling running through the outdoor furniture to keep it in place or edge of area. We removed what we could the first night. We did notice the second night we were there someone had blown the area free of leaves. Overall house was fine for 2 nights stay.

Quick trip

We only stayed for a couple of nights but the cabin was just what we needed! It is very cute. The road to the cabin is a one-way driveway. It isn’t too bad. There are a couple of spots it’s a little hard to see the road. But nothing treacherous or steep. One thing to note is the stairs going up to the loft is more like a ladder. But it is just as shown in the photos. It is a beautiful and relaxing place. The only thing I would say was that if you have a house where you can see the top of the fan, you might want to dust it. But that is being nit-picky! The screened in porch was my favorite area! Would definitely stay again.
