Quiet cabin retreat
We very much enjoyed the cabin and outside fire pit. The host was very helpful with helping us with early check in and when we had vehicle troubles. He had neighbors come help us. The driveway was a challenge for our full dress touring bikes but we made it work. The amenities in the cabin were great! Overall we loved our experience and the rides around the Smoky Mountains was awesome!

Summer Family Trip
The home was easy to find, quiet, very clean, and had a great location to get to wherever we were gonna spend the day. My only critique to someone who might be interested in renting the cabin is that the cabin is small and the upstairs bedrooms are wide open, it felt cramped for a larger group (we had 7 people). However, overall we had a great experience with the owners, the cabin, etc. Would defnitely recommend it for smaller groups.

Excellent clean modern cabin
Everything was as expected the cabin was excellently cleaned. The three queen beds were the perfect assortment of comfort the amenities were great and it truly is conveniently located close to everything in that area. The only thing I would change is the surrounding area around the cabin. It takes away from how gorgeous the cabin really is.

20-30 minutes to ski area
The cabin is great. The listing shows it is 1.9 miles from the slopes and ski in and ski out. While there is a road that would make it 1.9 miles, it can not be used by the general public so it is really 20-30 minutes away. I rented this cabin so my high schoolers would be close to the cabin and wouldn't have to drive far. This was a huge disappointment. Also one of our cars could not make it up the drive after it snowed. Wheels just kept spinning. Might need more gravel. We had to park it a long way away and walk.

Fall getaway
Wonderful spot to get away and see the fall colors. The cabin was conveniently located to go hiking, see the elk in the Great Smokies, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. We had more than enough space and enjoyed the deck and fire pit.

Cozy Cabin
We had the best time and loved this cabin. It’s so cozy! The driveway is a little steep with sharp curves but not a problem at all if you have a truck or SUV. Loved the sound of the stream across the street. Would definitely stay here again! The owners are so nice and helpful also!!

Thanks for sharing your cabin! It was very roomy for our family of 4 adults. Loved the front porch. The kitchen has all the essentials, and the cabin was clean and new. Terrific location with easy access to Waynesville, Maggie Valley, Asheville, Blue Ridge Pkwy, and the Smoky Mountain National park.

Cabin is fantastic.. But...
The cabin is awesome.. and all the amenities are fantastic.. but if you ride a motorcycle it's not so fun.. the driveway is terrible ( it is a shared driveway ).. and getting up to the cabin is not fun.. the other thing that is a problem is you have to take your trash with you when you leave.. You are to take it to the county dumpsters.. that are NOT open on Fridays.. How do you do that on a motorcycle? Owners should make it easier in that respect ( especially when they know in advance that the guests are coming in on motorcycles ) but other than that I would definitely recommend that rental..

There are a lot of great golf courses within an hour of this property. Me and 3 friends each had a room and the house was immaculate. An added bonus was the cornhole boards that allowed us to continue the competition we’ll into the evening

Good weekend away
The cabin was beautiful! The beds are more like doubles, but they sleep great. The fact that they have all the pots and pans for their guests is just amazing. The view is gorgeous and we loved sitting on the porch and just enjoying the mountains. We weren't able to to enjoy the firepit because it was raining. Unfortunately, the cleaning fee is the same whether you stay for 1 night or 7 nights. Along with the cleaning fee, you have to take your trash with you, but there is nowhere to throw it away on a Sunday. We only stayed one night, but it was a nice getaway.
