PLEASE READ!!!
Before you pack up and head to the mountains, know that when we say mountains, we really mean it!
Dillsboro NC elevation starts at 1,975 feet. Think of this as your starting point. If you want to get a beautiful mountain view, you gotta climb some mountains. Mountain roads are typically gravel, steeper, narrower and curvier than you may be use to driving. This is all part of our charm.
We do have one big hill to get up. It is gravel. We regularly drive a Hyundai Sonata up. While AWD vehicles make everything easier they are not required. Maintain an even speed (10mph) going up and you should have no issues.

*******No refunds will be given due to weather.*****

Items NOT provided: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, items of a personal nature. We do supply hand soap, dish soap, and starter laundry items.


Please note this is a SMOKE FREE property. Ashtray is provided outside on the porch. If the home smells of smoke, you may lose all or part of your damage deposit for additional cleaning and odor removal.

This is a DOG FRIENDLY property, however we ask that you bring a kennel for your pet if you plan to leave him/her alone at the house. We do charge a $45.00 non refundable fee for bringing your pet. If you are bringing your pet YOU MUST select the pet option. If you do not, you will receive an invoice for the pet fee. DOGS ONLY

We loved the beautiful location and privacy of the cabin. The cabin layout is perfect for 2 couples with the 2 ensuites with large walkin showers. We spent a lot of time on the front porch with a great mountain view. The owners were very responsive and very helpful, which was important to us. We will definately book another stay here in the future.

Awesome time at Horseshoe Bend

We had another wonderful experience at one of Chuck and Sandy's properties (Horseshoe Bend). Perfect location, beautiful views, well thought out top shelf amenities, and the best hosts you could want. We even had a box of chocolates and a Valentines balloon awaiting us upon our last arrival. What more can I say? We'll be back in April for our 4th stay this year. Give them a call, you won't regret it..
