We’ve visited the area several times and this cabin was conveniently located to the places we wanted to visit. It was a wonderful break from the incredible Florida heat this Summer.
The property was well kept and was a great location for a weekend mountain trip. Overall I’d say it was worth it and definitely would book again for the summertime.
The cabin was great. The driveway has only enough room for one vehicle comfortably, and 4wd is highly recommended. Take the advice of the owner and walk the driveway before driving it for sure. A great remote location near the Nantahala Gorge. Perfect for a weekend fishing trip!
Overall great stay! A couple of cleanliness issues but we would still stay here again. The good definitely outweighs the bad!!! Beautiful.

We only stayed for one night but wish we could've stayed longer! The cabin was adorable, very quiet with the sound of the nearby river. The cabin was very clean, and we were thankful not to be tasked with cleaning it ourselves when we left. The fall leaves were gorgeous. Our host provided every amenity we could've needed. I will say for future guests to just take caution when arriving and the road up to the cabin, and the driveway are a tad steep and unpaved. Despite that, we arrive aftwr dark and didnt have any significant issues. I drive a rinky dink corolla and did fine, but those with cars that are low to the ground may have trouble. Thanks Jim!!
Abundant solitude is this cabin to a tee. Beautiful, tranquil and remote. Comfortable beds and great deck.
Please heed the owners suggestion of checking out the driveway. We had 4 wheel drive and cameras on our Expedition...so we had no problems. If you aren't use to mountainous steep areas please check first.
Otherwise easy peasy.
Fabulous location!!
Great little cabin! Very peaceful.
One thing to be aware of, is the last part of the driveway is very steep with loose gravel. We arrived after dark ( I know the instructions advise against that) so we decided to park at the top of the hill and walk down. Not a big deal, just be prepared. Especially if dark, because it is DARK!! :) I would definitely stay again!
Beautiful little cabin in the woods. Loved watching the fire flies from the back deck! It was wonderful having a washer and dryer available so we had fresh clothes to wear. We did get our car stuck but the housekeepers responded immediately and were able to drive it out for us. I think you need a 4 wheel drive or more experience than us flat landers to navigate the hill. Would also recommend new pillows. All and all a great stay!

Thanks for your kind words and suggestion. New Pillows are on the way.
The nantahala gorge area is breathtaking! I would recommend a trip to that area for a warmer time of year.

October in Topton
Apparently there were issues with DISH on Thursday before our Friday arrival . Had we been informed, we could have brought movies but no tv for the weekend made for long, quiet evenings. Light didn’t work over washer/dryer and there were dead bugs along the baseboards in the twin bedroom. Driveway to cabin is extremely steep with little room to maneuver a vehicle. Added to this, it rained and made it made difficult to manage the driveway; it really needed paving between the 2 cabins. Description needed to stress that it’s not really close to anything.

Melanie,
We are sorry you were disappointed with your cabin. It is a secluded cabin in the woods, near hiking trails, trout fishing, white water rafting and other opportunities to reconnect with the natural world. Possibly you should have chosen a more commercial venue.
The satellite TV company‘s problem was discovered on the morning of your arrival. Their representative arrived the next day, but was unable to solve their problem. It was too late to notify you when the problem was discovered. However, as I told you by phone, we should have kept you better informed.
The drive is not too steep by mountain standards and if it were paved it would impossible to navigate during our snowy/ice winters. The weather here is quite different than it is in S.W. Georgia. We are also sorry that it rained during your vacation.
There is no excuse for your finding dead bugs on a baseboard, nor for the light in the laundry room being out. We will address these issues immediately.
Thank you for choosing The Cabin’s at Long Branch and thank you for your candid review. We are always glad to receive comments from our guests.
We will be happy to have you visit again and we will try to make up for these deficiencies if we can. Best wishes and safe travels,
Jim and Peggy
