The house was beautiful and great view. The only thing is the driveway was rough getting into. A 4x4 would be better. Enjoyed the hot tub.

Rooms were very clean and the cabin was a great location! Just far enough and nestled in the mountains, but still a very easy drive to Bryson City to enjoy the local restaurants and shops. Also very close to Deep Creek, which made for a great hike!

This cabin is absolutely gorgeous! It has a million dollar view of the mountains. All the furniture and decor are cozy and exactly what you want when you stay at a cabin in the mountains. This place has absolutely everything you need. I've stayed at other cabins where you had to supply everything-dishwashing detergent, trash bags, paper towels, etc. They were all provided here. It was luxurious and took away so much stress. It's very close to Bryson City and was a wonderful home base for rafting on the Nantahala River, seeing the elk and bears in the Great Smoky National Park, and hopping across the park to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. This was an amazing trip. I can' t recommend this cabin enough.

The cabin is fantastic. Very clean and the porch is awesome, we could have sat there the entire weekend. Easy to get into Bryson City and Harrah’s. Highly recommend it.

Exceptionally clean and exactly as described. Only downside was the comfort of the beds. Probably need to purchase new mattresses.

This cabin is a great size for the price and conveniently close to Bryson City. It was not clean at all though. Bathroom mats were filled with dirt. Glasses and silverware in the kitchen had dirt and smudges on nearly all of them. Bathroom towels smelled musty. If this is just what was noticeable, the unseen aspects of the cabin like sanitized surfaces raise concern. A less serious problem, but still unappreciated, is the "starter" amount of toilet paper. I understand a small roll, but there was not even half a roll in one of the bathrooms. This just felt like the cherry on top for a poorly prepared cabin.

We had such a nice time at the Great Escape! The kitchen (which we did not use this visit) was impressively stocked with every appliance! The rooms were tastefully decorated and so comfy! There is a hammock on the wrap around porch which I enjoyed! And, the hot tub was so very lovely! I was wishing we had more time there!For interested folks, there is a master bedroom upstairs, with a tv, and a shower in the bathroom. Just outside of the en-suite bathroom is a loft with a trundle bed (2 twins). I imagine anyone staying there could use either the bathroom in the bedroom (also with a tv)or the full hallway bathroom across from the bedroom downstairs.The driveway was mostly gravel and was a little bit scary at first, but I had no trouble in my Toyota Corolla! There was plenty of room to turn my car around at the house in order to get out going forward!Bryson City is a cute little town and the Nantahala Outdoor Center is a pleasant drive, about 18 min.All my questions were answered promptly by Darrell; made it so easy!I do plan on returning in the future!

LOVED IT. The view of the twin mountains from the porch is so nice. There is also the hot tub and the firepit area so plenty to do at the cabin. Then Cherokee is less than 20 minutes away.

Hello future Guest. The only issue i’m aware of is our Internet went out due to our provider experiencing issues. Our Wi-Fi is working great with no issues. We were hard to provide a five star experience for our guests and look forward to having you stay!
