Disliked: Location
The reservation process is a bit quirky. It has been a few years since we last reserved a VRBO property. Once our request was accepted everything was fine. We traveled with a dog. We chose this property because it was listed as dog friendly. On the day we traveled to the property, we read in the contract no pets allowed. So I texted the owner through the VRBO site about the discrepancy. They were OK with us bringing our dog and advised us there was a 30 fee, which we paid. The property was as expected; charming with what we thought would be adequate amenities. Internet service was hit or miss throughout the stay. The bed was like sleeping in a saucer and the coffee maker had an ongoing science project where the coffee and filter go. Out of all my overnight stay experiences, this one lands somewhere in the middle. Overall, the property served its purpose, and overall we were happy with our getaway. Thanks!

Not bad at all for the price.

If you’re looking to explore the area or do some white water paddling, this is a pretty good deal. Quiet, and well stocked with plenty of amenities that made it a comfortable stay.

Super cute and well-appointed cabin

A lot of thought has gone into the design and outfitting of this little place - super cute and so private! Everything you need for a quiet weekend away and very convenient to fun stuff on the Hiwassee. We made breakfast both mornings in the kitchen and enjoyed early mornings on the porch. Do watch out for poison ivy if you’re sensitive to that but it was easy to avoid if you know what you’re looking for.

Fantastic!

This cabin was perfect, my wife and our teenage daughter absolutely loved it. The home has everything you need to cook a nice meal and a beautiful campfire outside. Our pup enjoyed running the hills. The host was great! Super friendly. The cabin has great WiFi as well. Highly recommend.
