PLEASE READ!
Before you pack up and head to the mountains, know that when we say mountains, we really mean it! Dillsboro NC elevation starts at 1,975 feet. Think of this as your starting point. If you want to get a beautiful mountain view, you gotta climb some mountains. Mountain roads are typically gravel, steeper, narrower and curvier than you may be use to driving. This is all part of our charm. We do have one big hill to get up. It is gravel. We regularly drive a Hyundai Sonata up. While AWD vehicles make everything easier they are not required. Maintain an even speed (10mph) going up and you should have no issues.
*******No refunds will be given due to weather.*****
Items NOT provided: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, items of a personal nature. We do supply hand soap, dish soap, and starter laundry items.
Please note this is a SMOKE FREE property. Ashtrays are provided outside on the porch. If the home smells of smoke, you may lose part or all of your damage deposit for additional cleaning & odor removal.
*****This property is located off US 74 in a curve. You will hear road noise while outside. While it is not obtrusive it is noticeable, but we think the convenient location makes up for this.
*****This is a DOG friendly property, however we ask that you bring a kennel for your pet if you plan on leaving him/her alone at the house. We do charge a $45 non refundable fee for bringing your pet. If you are bringing your pet YOU MUST select the pet option at checkout. If you do not it will be taken from your damage deposit. DOGS ONLY

Everything was literally perfect. It was so cozy and I was so happy to see the Christmas decor still up!! This was my favorite place I have ever stayed at!!
Great cabin! Cute and cozy. Had everything my family needed for a wonderful getaway. Views are spectacular and cabin is private but still close enough to town to be convenient. Highly recommend!
We had a great time! The cabin was exceptional! Very clean and updated with comfortable beds. The hot tub and fire pit were great. It was very cozy and really had all the extras you could want. Our hosts were wonderful! Thanks for a great trip, will be returning!
Enjoyed the house and liked how it was decorated for Christmas. The view was awesome from the deck. The bed we chose was very comfortable. Great location as it was very close by all of the towns that we wanted to visit. Would definitely recommend to others!
Location and view were fabulous. The host was wonderful, kind, and responsive. Thanksgiving was wonderful and cozy. The Christmas decor was appreciated.

Thank you for the great review. Come back anytime!
Very enjoyable stay with a beautiful view! We loved hanging out by the firepit or in the hot tub. The drive to the house was not difficult at all and the signs helped us locate the house at night. 10/10 would recommend this place to everyone and stay here again!
