Great VRBO Property

Possibly the cleanest property we’ve ever rented, and we’ve rented many! Very comfortable, well stocked & the hosts kept in contact with us through texts to make sure everything was good. We’ll absolutely stay here again if it’s available.

A hidden gem in Nantahala Forest

We had a lovely quiet time at the space. Truly one of the more organized and clean properties we have ever stayed at. Rode the Skyway there and the Dragon back. Will want to come back in warmer weather 😇

Comfortable and prisitne

Cottage was so clean and neat! We enjoyed returning to the cottage each day after riding our motorcycles. The washer dryer came in so handy and we forgot laundry detergent, and to our nice surprise the cottage had some for us to use. We highly recommend the Sweetgum cottage!

Our 1st experience with renting. It was wonderful. Our hosts were gracious and they thought of every detail and item you would need. Definitely a rental we would return. You should use these hosts as examples or representatives of how a rental should be fitted.

Perfect in every way!

The cottage was absulotely perfect and had everything we needed. It was close to everything and far enough from the road itself that the traffic did not bother us. We spent a lot of time on the porch, it was perfect for relaxing and eating breakfast. We did cook a lot and they had everything we needed, they had a coffee maker and provided coffee and stocked the fridge with water bottles for us as well as some butter and coffee creamer. Everything was clean and comfortable and, for those who need internet and service, both were superb. I would definitely come back again and recommend it to others!
