Loved the view the cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The drive from the gate to the cabin was a bit crazy and the parking area was not meant for trucks. Very tight fit.

Great views

The house has great views and was meticulously clean and neat. The roads are twisty one lane hairpin turn roads but that’s just the way it is in the mountains. It was entirely manageable in an SUV and worth the drive for the view and house.

Perfect getaway

Beautiful home, even more spectacular view. Drive up is an adventure, but so worth it. We had great wifi and reception and kitchen is well stocked. Close to the mountains, Bryson City and other restaurants and amenities. It was perfect for our family's long weekend retreat!

Nice cabin, great views!

My family & I really enjoyed our stay at Bear Bottoms. The cabin was plenty big enough, the views were great & even though we had close neighbors it felt like we were all alone in the mountains.The only thing I would suggest is the property needs more utensils & a few more sets of dishes. We had exactly what we needed for meals so we needed to do dishes after each meal.

Beautiful cabin

We have stayed in a lot of cabins. This was the most beautiful one we’ve ever stayed at. We actually, for the first time, used a travel agent and we are so glad we did. KH Travel found us this and we were so pleased. The view is as breathtaking as the cabin.

Great Cabin

We loved everything about the cabin. It’s sooo nice and the view from the front porch is extraordinary!! The beds were more firm than we like, but it wasn’t a big deal. The cabin was very clean and lots of privacy. We loved the sitting area on the bottom level. Just a great cabin overall!! The road to the cabin is very steep and narrow, but we didn’t mind. Would definitely have been difficult to pass other vehicles, but thankfully we didn’t meet any other vehicles.

Great Area

Loved visiting the National Park and Polar Express ride. Was disappointed with the cabin. Spare bedroom was not as listed, instead had wobbly bunk beds so had to improvise both nights! Fire place didn’t work. Maybe it’s just the season but we were severely outnumbered by the lady bugs and stink bugs!

No oven , and no cable. Back door handle broke off in your hand. No wifi or reseption

The home it's self was perfect. But with no wifi, or cell reseption it was hard to reach anyone about the issues in the home. When we did get through, although the 3different peaple I spoke to on 3different days about the same issues were very polite and understanding. No one ever came to fix the issues.

Very Nice 3 story cabin on the mountain

My family and I had a great time staying at the cabin. Everything was as described and we were very comfortable in the house. Warning to all who stay here that, also as described, there is a 1 lane VERY steep road that leads you to the cabin. The only problem with this is that if there is a person going up the mountain and someone going down at the same time that means someone will have to go in reverse on the extremely steep road on the side of a cliff with a drop off. We were not use to this so it was extremely scary for us. Other very small issues was that there were cobwebs and spider webs everywhere with living spiders. We know and understand this is in the woods on a mountain, but it does need a good cleaning with a long duster or broom. There were multiple clocks in the house, but most of them do not work. The door locks to the back deck did not work after multiple attempts to secure the 2nd floor. Again, these are very small problems and did not effect our stay very much. Overall, we had a great time and felt extremely comfortable on our stay at the cabin. Very close to Cherokee SC.

Headache from the start.

When we arrived on Thursday the heat was not working. My husband and my father went outside and the condensing coil was frozen. And the thermostat was locked on the inside of the cabin. They ended up getting the emergency heat to work. When we tried to light the fire place, it wouldnt work. It didnt work our entire stay. There were SEVERAL lady bugs and stink bugs throughout the cabin. A ton in the large windows, bathrooms, bedrooms. EVERYWHERE! There was black mold in the wet bar area. On the wall, the dart board game, the pictures. The bunkbeds in the spare room, were so wobbly and missing screws that no one could sleep on it. When I reached out to Vacasa they offered to relocate us, unfortunately they did not have anything in the area. They then offered to refund my money and we could find somewhere else. Again, unfortunately there was nothing in the area for a reasonable price (it would take 3-5 business days to get a refund) and we had tickets to the Polar Express. They offered to send someone up on friday to address our issues and no one ever came nor called. Our trip was through Sunday, and we decided to leave on Saturday, after trying to tough it out. The only thing positive about this trip was the views! We definitely will not book this cabin in the future.

Very nice cabin has a lot of stairs for older people. If you’re gonna make breakfast and want toast you have to bring your own toaster. Had a real good time sitting on the second floor deck watching the hummingbirds.

Great place great area (poor management means you need to bring your own stuff)

The cabin is great and your adventure will start at the driveway! No WiFi Vacasa manages the property and they won’t answer the phone on the weekend - if you arrive on Saturday you’ll need to do your best to see what supplier you need we got 1 roll of toilet paper /bath no soap for shower 2 kitchen garbage bags no sponges and no broom. They knew for 3 months that there would be six of us staying for a week. It was never stated in the advertisement for the house. “They said it’s not their policy to stock the house” They did deliver a broom on Tuesday. So buy your own supplies ahead of time and you’ll be fine. Bring binoculars to see the elk grazing in the distant pastures.

Over rated

The place looks good and in a good location, it's amenities listed a gas grill, fire pit, fireplace and direct TV, when you travel from out of state you at the amenities and understand you pay a cost for them, the list of 4 important things didn't work and we spoke to several people, 2 phone calls, 5 emails and several text messages and after all of my efforts not a single person showed up to fix anything. We paid up front and got shafted I would not recommend this management team to anyone. We also took very good photos of all the items and the awful none working conditions they were in.
