Overall... was a great place for the two of us. We enjoyed being so close to the Tellico River (but unfortunately forgot my fly rod). We took long scenic drives in the area to Robinnsville, NC, Fontana Dam, Tail of the Dragon and the Cherohala Skyway. Also explored the nearby Cherokee National Forest. Very scenic location!
The only downside is that the cabin's internet access (wifi) was pretty slow and unable to stream TV very well while also using our devices to explore Google Maps, etc. The entire area also suffers from very poor ATT signal. So be aware of that. There are very limited eating and shopping/grocery areas nearby. We don't recommend the walkable Ironworks grill... it seemed poorly run. Go get groceries and supplies in Madisonville.
