Perfect cabin for a family. We had 3 children and 4 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone. They even had plenty of toys for all ages groups in the kids room. It was located just outside of town in a quiet Neighbourhood but only 10 minutes to everything this beautiful small town has to offer.

Dreams!

I love this mountains and this house is the epitome of a mountain house. Location, property and amenities were spot on! We were only here for graduation weekend but if I had longer, I would have sat in the back yard at the creek the entire time!

Beautiful home and setting

The home was as beautiful as the pictures. Listening to the stream while rocking on the front porch was relaxing and delightful. TV needs to be bigger and it would have been nice to have Wifi. Overall it was a very nice place to stay. Would definitely consider staying here again.

Great for Group

We stayed here with friends, four adults and five kids, and there was enough space for all. Kitchen well-stocked with cookware. Close to an Ingles grocery store. Close in mileage to Bryson City train depot but with the winding roads, took a bit longer than expected. All in all, a great stay and 100% as advertised!

Great family cabin

This cabin was great for our 5 night stay!! We have a 2 year old and was afraid it would be hard to keep him busy. It most definitely was not,(they had games,toys,movies and coloring stuff). Not having wifi or cable was a bit of a bummer but there was so much good stuff that we forgot all about that. I very highly recommend this cabin if you have all age of kids like me, something for everybody.

We were visiting for polar Express, the spot of the property was good, but the key code was can a difficult to lock, we have a little problem with the company host they didn’t send me the code after I send the contract agreement to get in, I have to call to emergency contact to ask for the code and we got it until our arrival, the coffee machine was nasty looks like they didn’t clean it. That’s the reason I leave 3 stars

House

The house was great and well stocked kitchen and games for all ages. The only problem we had was no TV. Direct tv was advertised but did not work. And by the vines on the dish it hasn’t worked in awhile. So dvd was the only option.

Great View, Very accessible to the casino

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had some maintenance issues but did get the main one fixed very timely. The cabin is a great size and has so much potential. It needs some updates including all of the beds need mattresses replaced. I would love to stay here again but won't return until the beds are updated nor recommended without caution. A bad night's sleep can ruin your day.

Anniversary stay

Actually the house looks nice from the road. It is when i got inside that i realized that the descriptions given were not what i saw. I was totally disappointed with the place. The back deck was not clean, needed power washing. The oven was practically unusable, couldn't figure out how to adjust heat. There were no linen exchanges. Had to use same sheets the whole time we were there. Was not worth the money paid. I will not be usins VRBO for nothing again. I feel like I've been robbed.

wasted potential from lack of Attention

Place had plenty of room. Clean enough inside. Some of the stove didn't work. It wasn't what we are used to for the money we spent on this property. Could have been better. Garage wouldn't lock so the place wasn't secure. Yards were neglected. Potential was lost with the neglected yards. Would have been awesome to had a view of the creek that lines the property. Would have only taken a little bit of effort to clean up the undergrowth. the back porch is covered in mold and very slippery when wet. An ounce of concern would have gotten us back. Property is simply neglected.
