We enjoyed our time spent with grandchildren and our fur baby! The area was quiet and the views of nature and the sound of the stream in the background were so relaxing. All the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.

Not ideal for longer stays. The whole house smelled rancid upon arrival from closet full of trash that hadn’t been removed from previous guest. Communicated several times with host, but still only part got picked up. We had to move it outside which we were told not to do because of bears, but smell was unbearable to leave inside. No vacuum for daily maintenance, only a broom with no dust pan. Living room furniture was so cheap and uncomfortable-like seriously, achingly uncomfortable! Cozy location and amazing front porch with swing, but the inside was seriously lacking. Bathrooms were mostly clean except for mildew on shower curtains. Towels and linens were clean. Hot tub was a selling point for us, but upon viewing, we decided not to use it as it looked very unappealing. Overall, not a terrible stay. Probably wouldn’t be bad for 2-3 days, but I wouldn’t stay again.

Anniversary get a way

We had a blast. It was our 2nd time in 2 years. We like the location, the views, and the hosts. The Hosts was very professional and quick to respond with any helpful advice and information. We would absolutely recommend this place.

Great location, but dirty

Would not stay again. The location was great, the price was great, but the entire place was dirty. I did discuss my concerns with the property owner, but they didnt offer a solution. We paid a cleaning fee and arived to the property not have being cleaned prior to our arrival. When I addressed it with the property manager the reply I received was that they had been on site the day prior to us checking in and had even addressed it with the cleaning crew and it apparently still did not get cleaned. No refund was offered. There was mold in every crevice of the downstairs bathroom, cobwebs in every window dead bugs everywhere. Not my idea of a welcoming vacation at all.

Upsetting

This property needs a lot of repairs and updates. The couch was broken with wood pieces sticking out. We didn't use it at all. The stove is so old that all the settings for the burners and oven are worn off. I couldn't get up the front drive because of large holes. They say to use that drive if you don't have 4 wheel drive! So we had to use the steps all 19 of them all the time, my 86 year old Mom included! so we didn't use the hot tub because you had to use the steps to get to it! The pictures are very deceiving there is no flat yard so it's not kid friendly at all! The fireplace is for looks only! There was dirt and hair behind the bathroom doors and the pantry was dirty with stuff just thrown in there. We had to clean it before we could use it. there wasn't anything on the living room windows to be able to close them off at night. If I could of afforded to stay somewhere else I would have! It was very disappointing! Our group was my 86 year old Mom, my sister who has health issues and myself which I have heart issues. so the steps were a large problem. They do have a new stackable washer and dryer we finally figured out how to use! The money they spent on that should of went into repairs.

This house overall met our needs for 2 nights, and it was nice to be able to have our dog with us! However, the trash had not been picked up from the prior guests and was never picked up during our stay at the home. Communication was great with the hosts, but the house was not very cozy or clean upon arrival.

This is a great cabin, conveniently located near Dillsboro, Sylva, and Bryson City. Love the pet friendly amenities and the porches and hot tub.
