Peaceful and relaxing

We spent most of our time on the front porch or outback even though it was cold, drinking coffee enjoying the sound of the creek or the fire. The only thing is the phone/internet service was very slow. *Very cozy cabin would stay here again*

Weekend Getaway

We had a quick trip to visit the polar express and this property did not disappoint. It’s close to town, down an easy dirt/gravel road, and the creek in the yard is wonderful. There is even a waterfall across the road. We will definitely be back during the warm weather to enjoy the front porch and the hiking trails near by!

Great view!

We loved being right on the stream and hearing the rushing water! The sofa was super comfortable, and the kitchen had what we needed. Would have liked to have a smart tv, but otherwise great!

Great property - but Helene showed up

We really liked this property and were excited about the creek just feet away, our boys were excited to explore it. Unfortunately our trip was cut short due to hurricane Helene. The property manager reached out and warned us that an evacuation was possible and we decided leaving early was best. She was so helpful and even refunded our unused nights since it was out of our control. The cabin is cute and well kept. We loved the fire pit and the creek out front. We may stay again in a different season.

Nice cabin on stream

Had a great time here. Easy drive to Cherokee, great Smokey mountains NP and blue ridge parkway. Stream and water fall were great. Love the sound of the babbling stream. Wifi was more like dial up speed.

2 day get away

We did like the outside of this property quite a bit. The creek is nice, and the waterfall was cool. However, the pictures on the listing are pretty dated. The property could use some tending to. The outside is grown up in the back yard, and most the bushes in pictures are dead and withered. Clean, basic needs met, and ok for a few days, but the area has a Marijuana farm on the road about a half mile away, and my wife and I both were on the same page and wouldn't book again.

Quaint cabin on a beautiful babbling stream

The perfect mountain getaway. We spent a lot of time on the front porch even though it was chilly, sipping our tea & coffee and enjoying the babbling stream. Cute & perfect spot to chill.

Anniversary trip!

We loved this cabin and surrounding creek/yard area. Absolutely beautiful...water fall directly across the road...creek surrounding property. Wonderful location and easy to get to. Would certainly recommend this cabin and would stay here again!!!

Loved this cabin

Everything was amazing. So relaxing to hear the creek all night. I loved being about to walk outside and feel like I was in a dream. The only complaint I have is the main bed needs a new mattress. I slept on the couch to avoid it the second night. But other than that it was an amazing trip and I can’t wait to go back.

Nice cabin, good location

The cabin is very clean and well maintained. The neighborhood seems safe. We would not hesitate to stay here again. The location is convenient to both Cherokee and Bryson City. We loved the sound of the creek and left the windows open to hear it.

Nice and relaxing

Very cute and quiet little cabin. We wanted something with a creek and this was perfect. We slept with the window open and listened to the creek. Settled in between Bryson City and Cherokee, it was a short drive to both. Highly recommend eating breakfast at the Everett Street Diner but get there early.

Heavenly retreat

I think this was our 4th year at this cabin. We absolutely love it! Beautiful and relaxing!! We enjoy cuddling beside a fire and listening to the creek. The cabin is always spotless and well stocked. Only recommendation- it is time for a new mattress in the master bedroom.

Beautiful little cottage with a wonderful creek and waterfall. Quiet and out of the way. Well furnished. Would definitely stay again. It is down a gravel roads so be prepared for that. WiFi was spotty but not a negative for us.

Beautiful setting

Rural beautiful setting, about half way between Bryson City and the Cherokee entrance to Smoky Mountain National Park. This location worked great for us. When we were not off hiking and exploring, we enjoyed the flowing creek right next to the cabin. The open kitchen great room worked well. This cabin made our trip to the Smokies even more enjoyable.

Booked this property by looking at the creek pictures. However, it was so much more. It was amazin

Pictures did not do this cabin justice. It was an amazing place to rest and relax. Lots of things to do. We just rode the mountains and looked at waterfalls. It was all I wanted and more.

Best Ever Vacation!

This was my favorite vacation ever! Just the place I was looking for like a little piece of heaven on earth! We have decided to go there every September for my birthday. The rapid rush of the creek was so soothing to me. And, I so enjoyed time with my precious family there. The cabin was so clean and well stocked with everything we could possibly need. We also enjoyed roasting marshmallows around the fire pit. It was so nice being right on the creek. What a spectacular place to vacation! You won’t be disappointed!!!

Fall in love with Falls Creek Cabin

I can not say enough good about this place! You just HAVE to see it in person! Tucked away is this magical place with 2 waterfalls, moss covered everything, a peaceful stream, and comfort of home. We had 0 issues with anything, and everything about this place exceeded our expectation. Bonus; it has a half bath not included in description. Our quick weekend getaway was one for the books. We plan to visit again!!

Great little cabin but don't use as homebase for motorcycle riding.

We had a wonderful 6 nights on Coopers Creek exploring the area by truck. We also had a motorcycle which I don't recommend for this location. The last half mile to the cabin is dirt/light gravel and very narrow and curvy, although it is flat. When raining or wet, the road is dangerous for a motorcycle, and fast cars, trucks, and buses come at you around the curves.

Clean and comfortable

Our cabin was clean and comfortable. Spoiler alert, you do drive over a short wooden bridge to get to the property. The picture on the website gives you the impression that the creek running around the property is a bit wider than it really is. But it is quite lovely and we loved hearing the Rushing Water right outside the door. The one down side was that the internet was pretty much non-existent. We continued to reboot the router and you would have internet for 10 or 15 seconds and then it was gone again. It didn't hurt our feelings though because we were up in the mountains and enjoying the quiet and the fresh air.
