The place is adorable and I loved the sun room, which is nice and cozy. The best part of the property is the backyard! We saw a beaver in the creek and found it to be a peaceful place to sit and relax.

Very cozy cabin. This is my favorite stay so far out a handful while being up in the area. The outdoor creek adjacent area is really nice. You can tell the owners have put a lot of thought into making your visit a great one.

Great little place!!

What a great little place! Everything was as listed. Great running or biking trail nearby (around North State Park). Maybe 100 yards from Silver Dollar for meals. Adorable back yard with stream. Really good amenities (soaps, shampoos, etc.). Good wifi.
