We all really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The property was clean and the location is great. The host were attentive and responsive, especially when we ran into a problem worth the water. We suddenly lost eater pressure, but it was fixed immediately! Highly recommended!

Great vacation house
We enjoyed the property, big yard for the kids and pup to play in and view wildlife. The river was pretty, I wish it was more accessible but we made the most of it. Easy to walk upstream and hop in and float back to the stairs at the cabin. The location between Bryson and Franklin was continent to both . Really enjoyed it

Gem mining.
The accommodations were wonderful. Close to the natural gem mines. The fish just didn't want to cooperate. Everything you could ask for for a week in the North Carolina mountains.

Amazing mountain getaway!
This lovely home was clean and well maintained in the beautiful mountains of NC! What a relaxing visit and time enjoying local hikes and restaurants and shops. The river behind the house was beautiful as was the scenery from the massive windows in the great room. It was such a peaceful getaway. Thank you for opening your home!

Great Cobin!!!
The cabin is great, huge front field with tons of privacy. The rear yard / firepit is right on the river!!! We used the firepit and grilled out. The hot tub was nice as well. Very easy to fine, I will say the transition from highway to the driveway was at an odd angle. A standard car will scrap the bottom. We will defiantly be renting this cabin in the future!!!!
