Perfect place to get away from the daily routine to relax and enjoy nature. Lots of places to visit and enjoy the magnificent scenery at the same time. Cute place and big enough for a couple to spend quality time together watching tv, cooking, grilling sitting by the fire pit and the wonderful hot tub!! Had some questions and Shelby got back right away and was super friendly. We'll definitely come back again.

We booked for a week long anniversary trip. We usually camp/backpack but wanted something more comfy this year. Perfect for hiking and soothing muscles afterwards in the hot tub under the stars!! The road in front of the place had a rather large ditch probably due to water erosion, but that’s not the owners fault!

I am extremely satisfied, the property manager did an awesome job on making my anniversary get away excellent. Thank you so much for all your care and your immediate response. Thank you to the cleaning lady for helping making it happen. My wife is very very happy with everything, and thank you for the flowers. Many things to do and see in very close vicinity. The property is very nice for two ppl, comfortable, everything work, nice and clean. Was a good time to spent together building our relationship.

It was exactly as it was described. One room studio cabin and great to have stove and hot tub. It was extremely difficult to get our trailer up to it and barely turned around, so I would suggest only bringing a car or truck (do not bring a trailer!) cabin was just as it was described and AC was great.

This was my first experience using vrbo. The rental process was very easy and only took minutes. The property owner was very nice and professional answering any questions I had. We loved the location and the cabin was the perfect size. The only suggestion I could make would be for the owner to evaluate the bed. It was not comfortable. Other than that it was a wonderful experience!

We had a great stay with our pup. Plenty of room for him to roam and smell everything. We had great temperatures with some rain. No complaints at all would stay again for sure.

This cabin is perfectly sized for 2 people, and positioned perfectly to allow easy access to numerous areas (Gatlinburg, Asheville, Bryson City). Nature is right outside the front door and the night time sky is filled with stars. The owners of the property were amazingly helpful answering any and all questions and helping to make this a truly memorable vacation.

This little house was so cute, tables and headboard were gorgeous! Description was accurate, it's small, no problem for us just keep it in mind. The best part was how easy it was to come and go on a motorcycle. Most cabins we've rented have seemingly endless dirt roads, this had about a tenth of a mile, one wide curve and a very slight incline. If you have any experience riding on dirt you won't have any problems. Plenty of room to park a trailer (ours is 7"x16" plus extended cab truck) although turning it around was a little tricky. There is a driveway though just before the house you can back into, just make sure you have a good spotter to help. There is another house next door, but the deck and hot tub face away from it, so as long as your neighbors aren't noisy you won't notice it. The road is also right next to the house, but it wasn't busy, we saw maybe three cars during the day. I usually look for complete seclusion, but knew this ahead of time and was willing to compromise in exchange for having a road that was easy to travel. The owner is awesome!! Immediate responses and completely honest and up front, even said this may not be ideal for two people for a full weeks because of the size (for my husband and I it was perfectly fine, we spend most of our time outside or in the bike anyway). Overall great place to stay, only reason I gave four stars on location was my preference for seclusion, but again, I knew there were neighbors ahead of time and chose it anyway, and that's just a matter of preference! I would definitely recommend renting for this owner as well, she is great!

We stayed here for 2019 MOTD. My husband is 6'2" and felt fine in this tiny home. The hot tub was a great add. We slept with the windows cracked to hear the gurgling brook outside the window.
The host was wonderful! Super fast response time and very helpful with locating property.

My wife and I stayed here with our dog for a winter vacation and loved every minute! The cabin was not hard to find and was in a great location. It was so quiet, all you could hear was running water. The hot tub was awesome! Bed was comfy, pillows were soft, water was hot when we needed it to be, and the ac/heat worked well!
The cabin was small but provided us with a very intimate experience. My wife and I reconnected on a whole new level and came back home like a couple of newlyweds! Something about this cabin and the mountains of NC were absolutely magical and brought us together closer than ever before. I highly recommend a trip like this to any couple!!

You can't control the weather and it RAINED every day. So I was stuck in a much too small cabin with not one comfortable place to sit. That bed was like a rock so sitting in/on it was not a welcome option. I ended up going into town and buying a lawn chair so I could at least sit and read. Bathroom was small but nice - but what is the reasoning behind the tiny toilet seat?

We had an amazing time in the creek side cricket. Very relaxing in the hot tub and the scenery around the cabin was beautiful!! Can’t wait to come back!! The dogs loved the creek and backyard area running and playing.
