A beautiful, peaceful mountain retreat

We went to see a show at Cherokee Casino, and this was a conveniently located hideaway nearby. Beautiful views both day and night

Cherokee Ridge Retreat

We loved the cabin. Very cozy and convenient to Bryson City, Sylva, Dillsboro, Waynesville. We ate lunch at Kosta's one day in Dillsboro, and we ate dinner at Clyde's in Waynesville. They have delicious food and the service is great and friendly staff. We went to Darnell Farms twice. Their fall festival was on Saturday, October 26. It was fun! We went to Harrah's several times and did good on the machines! The trees were beautiful and the weather was too. We wore shorts every day. We changed into jeans before going to the casino. One night, we turned onto Hidden Springs Rd. and there were fire trucks and policemen. They said a tree had fallen across the road and they gave us directions on how to access our cabin from another way, thank goodness. The cabin did not have electricity, so we turned on the gas logs for light. At 10:00, still no electricity, so we went to bed. Electricity came back on around midnight. We sat in the dark, except for the gas logs, from 8PM to 10PM.

Lovely cabin!

Near ideal location, great views, very private. My favorite part was morning coffee on the porch swing listening to all the critters. Also appreciated the well-equipped kitchen!

Perfect location and views

The cabin was perfect for a couple or small family. The road in is steep but paved and although it feels remote, it was very close to hiking and the casino. We arrived late and were given the wrong gate code, but the management company got it to us quickly and assured us they would change it for future guests. The views from the porch and hot tub were amazing. We would definitely stay again!

Great place to relax!

The cabin was exactly as described. Even though there were other cabins near us it felt like we were the only ones for miles, very quiet and private. The views from the porch and hot tub were just breathtaking. It was easy short drives to Cherokee and Bryson City for shopping and attractions. The cabin was very clean and really cute! Plenty of clean towels, nice starter bathroom amenities, and kitchen supplies. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Nothing Short of Amazing

My wife and I booked this cabin for our trip to Cherokee. We were blown away with the views. From the inside and out this cabin is beautiful. Amazing views and very clean. The view from the hot-tub was hard to beat. Will definitely be staying here again.

Beautiful cabin

Loved is private location. Never saw any neighbors. Was given the correct gate and door codes. Easy to get in once understood how the door lock worked. Beds was great. Could not figure out how to get the dish network to work in the bedroom. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.

Quite weekend

A weekend getaway.. The drive getting to the cabin was very scary. I would NOT recommend going at night. Once we drove up and down it a few times it wasn't so bad. Once we got there we unloaded the truck and took a look around for things that they provided before we took a 10min drive to Food Lion. The kids enjoyed the hot tub. Theres only a few things I would complain about is the TV in the master bedroom only have 6 channels. My husband tried messing around with it to see if he can get, but was unable to. The other thing was the amount of ladybugs and stink bugs in the house. I know the cabin is in the woods..but OMG they were everywhere. Other then those few things we had a blast here! Thanks for sharing your cabin with us!
