About this property

Beautiful Cabin located by the Creek. 15 minutes to White Water Rafting

We would like to invite you & your family to stay with us in our beautiful mountain cabins located on the banks of Big Creek and the French Broad River in beautiful east Tennessee.

Our cabins are nestled near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park on over 4 acres of land with a stocked trout stream. Some of our many amenities include jacuzzi baths, hot tubs, fully-equipped kitchens, picnic area by the creek with charcoal grills, satellite TV and gas log fireplaces. We supply towels, sheets, dishes, glassware, and kitchen implements so all you need to bring is yourself, clothing and your groceries. There is no cell phone service or WiFi. This is a great opportunity to disconnect and enjoy The Great Smoky Mountains.

We are within easy driving distance to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, and the Great Smoky Mountain's National Park on the Tennessee side. Equally close are Asheville, the Carl Sandburg Homeplace, Biltmore Estates, Maggie Valley, Pisgah National Forest, Hot Springs, Cherokee and Harrah's Casino.

Cozy cabin with lots of privacy. Well positioned to get to Asheville or Gatlinburg. Irene is lovely! We accidentally left our key behind and that sweet woman came down well past most folks' bedtime to save us with a spare key. I will absolutely rent this space again.
Cozy sitting porch on both sides of the house. This one's out back.
Back yard view. It's so pretty!

Great location, very comfortable

Loved the brook just behind the house and the perfect covered porch. Comfy beds, well outfitted kitchen, very very quiet day and night. Responsive host and easy check in. Water has a funny smell, taste, and oily film on top so bring your own.

Creek side cabin

The stay was overall great, we all loved being able to go outside on the back porch and watch and listen to the creek. We also enjoyed the peaceful nature too. It was a little closed off from the rest of the world but it was great.

I love that there is 3 different sizes of cabins that meets different needs. You can sit on the back porch and enjoy your coffee,while listen to water and birds chirp in the morning. A grill and table to cook by. It's peaceful. I'm definitely coming back again

Beautiful creek!

Cute little cabin right on a creek that you can hear from the house. Cabin was clean and check in was easy. You may want to take bottled water as the water has a very strong sulfur smell. Good place if you want to unplug and relax.

Christmas Getaway

It was so beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed the stay and the owners were so nice. It was a nice getaway from all the Christmas chaos. No Internet or cell service but well worth so much family time that was well needed. Would recommend to anyone who wants to get away from the city and enjoy their family!

Relaxing weekend trip

We loved the cabin. It was everything we needed. The property was very well kept. The only thing was we had a late checkin and went to the address on the email I was sent and went to the owner's property. And there was no cell service so I couldnt call. But it was right down the road and the owners were very nice and helpful. Perfect place to get away and disconnect.

Nice Cabin

We spent 3 nights here and it was nice and clean. Loved being beside the creek too. We had a problem getting the hot tub working but Irene quickly visited the cabin and helped out. No cellular service and no Wifi here which we were fine with but was disappointed that the fireplace and the Jacuzzi tub did not work. A fireplace was one of the things we really wanted while on vacation and especially b/c it was so cold. These 2 amenities really should be removed from the description until they are repaired and functioning or at least disclosed to the traveler before booking.
