The cabin was very comfortable and we enjoyed the quiet getaway. It contained everything we needed to prepare meals and was close enough to towns if we wanted to dine out. Great homebase for the area excursions.

Great place!!

We stayed 3 nights. Great location, very clean and comfortable. Right by the river just no river access but there is just a short drive away. Convient to Bryson City and Cherokee. Paved road around the complex made for easy walking. Highly recommend the cabin.

Super cute and clean cabin with everything we needed for a week away. Perfect location for accessing multiple parks, for hiking and fishing and swimming in the mountains, as well as restaurants and shopping in Bryson City, Cherokee, and Sylva. Great location on the property, with a decent view of the river and a little privacy (in the cul de sac, so less traffic, so also pretty quiet). We'd definitely stay again.

Wondered, relaxing vacation.

This is our third time staying in the cabins. We choose a different cabin each visit. Every one of the cabins have their own charm. Plan to be be back as soon as we can. Love the quiet area and the beautiful river.

The cabin was clean but the smoke smell was horrible. Raised windows to try to get rid of the smoke smell but didn’t work . Would expect a non smoking cabin to not smell like that. Had to rewash all of our clean cloths when we got home

Nice clean cabins

I'm very particular about where I stay. These cabins were clean. We stayed in cabin#5 the coop. Nice looking shower, not stained etc. Good water pressure. Nice, new looking washer and dryer. My only issue were the bath towels. I think they could use an upgrade in that area so I'd likely bring my own next time cause as stated I'm particular. My biggest thing is that things appear clean. Could maybe use a night light in the bathroom for night time trips.

I love this place!!!

I come and stay at these cabins at least once a year. I love it here, they're so clean and peaceful. The owner Dave is awesome and really goes above and beyond to work with you on check in times, and also very responsive! I will be back again!!! Thank you

Home away from Home

This cabin was a home away from home. You can go right out the door and see the river and Elks in the river. Also everything you need is in the cabin. Not far from anything you want to do.

Smokey Mountain adventure

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean and roomy. My only concern was, possibly my fault, that I did not realize we could have stayed in a cabin with the river directly behind us. Also, a handle somewhere in the shower would have been more safe.

Our stay was wonderful. The cabin was very nice! Exactly how it was described. It was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. Will recommend to anyone that is looking for a cozy place to vacation.

Wonderful community

Clean, well maintained, had everything that was needed. The neighborhood is great - had a nice time talking to others. Loved sitting and watching the river - so peaceful. And the bed was incredibly comfortable. Each cabin decorated with a theme and are adorable.

Renting was very easy. No surprises. Owner(s) were very nice and communication was easy. Location was good, very nice cabin! Enjoyed using covered community pavillion and grills. Made a new friend and enjoyed a drink with him. View of Tuckasegee River.
