The highlight of this property is not only the view, but how accessible the hosts have made themselves. They were available at all times. Although we brought detergents and paper products, the cabin was indeed well stocked! The location was ideal, and the locals couldn't be any friendlier or more helpful. In a word, accommodating!

This cabin was just so cute and the communication with the owners was excellent. Everything you could need in the kitchen is there for you. They also had plenty of bedding and throw blankets for you. The hot tub was clean and temperature adjustable to our liking. I really like that they had porches on the east and west side. Also had a several books you could read. This cabin is high up and it is so quiet and peaceful.

What a beautiful, relaxing experience this was! I rented the cabin for Valentine's Day weekend for my girlfriend and I. The weather was just right for the experience we were looking for. This was not far from Bryson City so we took a mini trip there for one of the days. The cabin was extremely nice, the views were great, and the host, Dan, was great! He was always available to reach out to if we needed anything or if we had any questions. We will definitely plan on doing another trip to this cabin one day. It was just what we needed to get away for a bit from regular life and relax.

Very secluded private and quiet. Just exactly what we needed! Host is very gracious and communication was easy. The cabin is at the peak of the mountain so the views are amazing and temperature was always cool, that being said the driveway is a bit steep but well maintained.
