It was wonderful, This was our second time staying here, so we knew where to go. Everything worked out great, An added bonus was seeing the nightly visits from many deer eating apples off the front yard tree.

It was a great cabin, but the bed situation was a struggle for sure. Two of us who normally sleep on a king and went to a double bed was rough.. but it was close to where we needed to be. The traffic noise was more than we anticipated during the day but it got quiet at night.. we would stay again if there was a bigger bed..

Location too noisy, although convenient to amenities. Toilet in bedroom fell off & tried to contact property mgmt no response so I fixed it. We were charged for cleaning but had to put linens in washer before we left. Unit inside clean so liked that.

Returning Guests - Adventurous Stay

Historic property in the heart of Mountain City. We were returning guests. Resident ground hog was active some nights under the house doing his thing. Work is being performed to rid property of this non-paying tenant. On Saturday, flying ants or termites (unsure which) invaded the main bath, probably due to warmer weather. Owner stated that pest control company would be scheduled for the following week. We found a vacuum cleaner and Hoovered those buggers up.
