Awesome place

The place was beautiful! And a nice ticked away home for privacy. Terry was easily contacted and easy to work with. We had a great time. Only problem was we were there to fish but the area was flooded. We enjoyed our stay, regardless.

Much prettier than it looks in the pictures. Tucked away in woods along the river. A lovely getaway.

Quiet, comfortable, very spacious, and very well-furnished and equipped home, tucked away in the woods along the river. Easy, short drive to Crystal Mountain. There is a big deck with several seating areas; the pictures really don't do justice to the place.

Great place to get away

Had room for the whole family. The river was a great place to fish and stay cool. The only thing was it had no AC.
