Great cabin, amazing views, has everything you need

It’s a large and beautiful cabin, in a nice location, with great views. It has everything you may need, everything works and is in good condition, and even the WiFi has very good speeds through Starlink. I would definitely recommend for a couple, family, or group of friends.

Summer Is Mountain Time

This cabin is fantastic. So much room. It was perfect for my husband, son and his girlfriend. The basement gave them a roomy private space to relax in evenings. The view is incredible, the cabin is super clean, tons of kitchen supplies. Husband said of all the rentals we have done, this one might be the best one.

Mountain Hideway

My family and I enjoyed our 7 night stay in your cabin. The sunrise and sunsets from the porch were a stunning displaying of mountain peeks and abundant wildlife. The 3 story cabin was modern, spacious, and very clean. It is peaceful and beautiful here. We plan to return in the future. Thanks for sharing with us! - The Bowen Clan

Carpenter bees

The roof rafters over the deck are infested with carpenter bees. This resulted in sawdust dropping on us in mass quantities. Also, after the rain storms during our stay washed out the side yard making it dangerous to put the key back where it was supposed to go. Other than that, it’s a lovely place to stay

Hi Jimmie, thank you for staying with us and for your feedback. Carpenter bees are common in this region, which is why all decks are equipped with functional traps, and we have Orkin perform monthly pest control. Insect spray is also available under the kitchen sink for guest use. We appreciate you noting the side yard drainage issue—it sounds frustrating during heavy rain. Our yard team is scheduled to assess the area during their upcoming visit. We’re grateful for your input as we continue to improve the guest experience.

Cleanest Cabin Ever

This cabin is a gem! While not as secluded or private as others we have stayed in this cabin was definitely the cleanest and best stocked. Linens looked brand new and plenty of extra blankets. Kitchen had everything we needed. Great play area/living area for older teens. The family living area was very nice with gas fireplace. It was perfect for our family of four with grandparents. Extremely dog friendly interior, however not a lot of flat grassy spaces but they loved tromping through the woods. Close to hiking and close enough to thrifting. Easy drive to several neat towns with shopping. Thank you for this wonderful before Christmas get away!!

Mountain Views & Lots of Stars

We rented the property due to the close proximity to Lake Hiwassee with the intention of spending days on the lake and enjoying the cabin in the evening. The pictures are accurate for how clean, and well put together the house is. The view is stunning. Things hard to tell by pictures are that it sits almost at the top of the ridge with very steep narrow roads leading to the house. We arrived after dark pulling our boat since the pictures looked like there would be enough room to pull in the parking lot with the boat. I do not recommend bringing a boat to the property as the roads are very steep and narrow and while there is room for three cars, it is not spacious enough for a boat trailer. We were able to rent a slip at Bear Paw Marina for the remainder of our long weekend and that was perfect. If you bring a boat, use Bear Paw Marina or Harbor Cove and only drive single vehicles to the cabin. We enjoyed playing Ping Pong, Corn Hole, grilling, and the fire pit. Coffee on the deck with clouds hanging in the valleys is so peaceful. This cabin is in one of the best locations on the ridge and did not disappoint!

Stayed at this property Sep 2 to 5 - 2022. Very comfortable & well kept property with very nice long range views.

The property is very well kept / maintained , is extremely clean/tidy and has a great layout. The kitchen was very well stocked & the bath rooms on each floor had decent/ample supplies. The bedrooms/beds were very comfortable. On the day of arrival (Sep 2), the AC/HVAC unit wasn’t functioning, the property management contact Renata Coker was extremely professional & diligently worked to make arrangements for repair person to come out & fix it that same evening. It is life & unexpected (unanticipated) incidents (no ones fault) do happen, so to be honest this an excellent property managed by a very professional team & you can’t go wrong by picking it for your next get away with family or friends.
