Love the mountains of NC and the excellent cabin. The kitchen was equipped to make meals for our family of four, the beds were comfy, the location exactly what we wanted. Close to Bryson City and the surrounding Nantahala Forest and the Smokies. Fontana Lake was at the bottom of our hill and we went paddleboarding there. Loved it!

Great cabin to get away from it all. There were plenty of bedrooms and we made good use of the fire pit and hot tub. It was lovely to look down and see the river. The only disappointing spot in our weekend is not seeing a bear. Guess we will have to come back and try again. 😀

Hickory Ridge Long Weekend

Property was as described. We found it easily with the directions provided and via Google maps. I worry about large places sometimes not being clean, but this place was clean and tidy. We enjoyed the park-style grill and evening in the hot tub. Even saw the aurora borealis while there! Good base for our visit to Joyce Kilmer, hiking in Nantahala National Forest, Bryson City, and Great Smokey Mountain National Park.

We came for a quick getaway for my son’s Birthday. We had a great time. The cabin was clean and had all the necessities needed. We visited Bryson City and the Casino in Cherokee. We had a day of rain but enjoyed hanging out at the cabin relaxing. My son enjoyed the hot tub. I would definitely recommend this cabin!

This cabin was extremely clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. It was so relaxing and the porch was a perfect spot to curl up with a cup of coffee and a good book in the morning. My family and I all enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend this place.

Rainy days

We enjoyed the house. It is a little bit of a trek to get to it. The rain did dampen our spirits a bit but we found things to do. As I noted to Mngrs, the kitchen sink leaks and I tried to cut off the water at the valves but they do not work properly.

Beautiful scenery! Perfect spot!

My family of 5 stayed here for our spring break. It was the perfect spot. Beautiful home, perfect view. Checking in and out was very easy. Communication was excellent with owner. House was clean. Plenty of cookware, for the nights/mornings you want to cook. We would definitely stay here again. Oh and the drive up to the home isn't as bad as I thought, just a little rough. Just take it easy! Location for our vacay was PERFECT! Went to the wsterfalls, so very beautiful. Visited Cheerokee, was a little disappointed bc the village was closed, only open in the summer. Plenty of shops! Just not what I expected. Our last day we went to The Tunnel To Nowhere, that was pretty cool. And I would definitely recommend checking out Sheffield Mining. The guy that helped us was amazing and the kids absolutely enjoyed that experience. Location 5 ⭐ 's House 5 ⭐ 's
