The owners go above and beyond to make sure that all our needs were met We received a call a couple of days prior to our stay to make sure we were all on the same page our questions were all answered. On our arrival we were very pleasantly surprised.. I would recommend the bear cabin to anyone looking for a quiet clean well furnished rental. The owners are very gracious and look out for all your needs. I let it slip that it was my birthday and found a birthday card on the dining table when I went in the cabin.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Jun, 2023
Thank you for the kind review and appreciation for the cabin cleanliness, something we take great pride in. However, we assume you only gave us 4 stars due to the steepness of the driveway. If so, we've had many bikers stay at this cabin who have had very few, if any, issues with the driveway. Some even said they enjoyed it! The hill has a smooth blacktop and is well maintained and the parking area is large with sufficient space for your bikes and trailer (for those who use one). We hope you consider one of our cabins for a future trip to Waynesville.

About the host

Hosted by Gloria and Mark

Host profile image
We are Gloria and Mark Ray, we love to vacation in this country's beautiful National Parks. In fact, after a vacation to the Smoky Mountain National Park more than 15 years ago, we both fell in love with the mountains of Western North Carolina and started making our plan to spend more time here. After many visits and much searching, we discovered these two cozy cabins and decided this would be the location for our second act career.

Why they chose this property

We spent many years vacationing in this area and have traversed many roads throughout Haywood County. We fell in love with the location of this property because it is private with many trees and conveniently located ( only 3 miles to downtown Waynesville) off of a paved county road with a paved access road to the cabins. We also like being located near Smoky Mountain National Park, accessible to hiking, rafting, waterfalls, biking etc.

What makes this property unique

Cozy Cabin Lane is located off of a paved county road that takes you to an elevation of 3,000 ft. which is conducive to beautiful mountain views by day and viewing the sparking lights of Waynesville by night. Only a 3 mile drive to the town of Waynesville that offers all the amenities a wandering traveler could want. The property has (2) one bedroom, one bath log frame cabins name "Bear" & "Deer" with themed décor. They were built for your travel enjoyment to experience the area and all the mountains have to offer. We hope to see you soon to enjoy our little piece of Western North Carolina. We have a private driveway leading to the cabins and each cabin has it's own 2 car parking area. The cabins are located approximately 100' apart but are separated amongst the forest of trees in between and around the property. There are family farms nearby so it is not unusual to hear a rooster crow in the morning or cows moo'ing during the day! This is a great option for family and/or friends traveling together but wanting their own private cabin. It is a special treat vacationing this close with nature and having modern conveniences available to suit everyone's idea of the perfect mountain vacation. Some amenities vary but we are sure you will find what you're looking for in either of our “Bear” or “Deer” Cozy Cabins.
After many months of waiting for county permits we now have Spectrum wireless Wi-Fi at both cabins and YouTube TV streaming is provided.
