It was the best rental we have ever stayed at! The location was great! The home was very comfortable! We slept so well! It was a clean & spacious cabin with beautiful landscaping and a gorgeous view! We loved the river and so did our dog! Judy was so sweet and was there for us if we had any questions for her. We loved the paved roads all the way to the door! It is not steep on the roads, you just have to drive slowly through the development. There were deer around every corner. We will stay there again!

Awesome wonderful cabin
We have been staying at VRBO's for over 10 years. This cabin and owner is by far the best location and owner we have ever had. Judy could not have been more helpful. She is outstanding! The cabin is fully furnished and is absolutely beautiful. My wife and I have already reserved time for next year. We were very blessed to be able to stay in Judy's cabin.

Cant Wait to Return
This was our NINTH stay in this neighborhood and first stay in this cabin and it was wonderful. We can't wait to book again. The cabin is roomy, clean and fully stocked. We loved being on a dead end with no neighbors on one side of us. The mountain view was AMAZING. My husband and I sat each evening on the porch watching the sun set and deer that visited the front yard. We actually tried to book for next year, same time and it's already booked but we'll definitely book again. 10 out of 10.

Beautiful cabin
Our weekly stay started out with rain the first full day. Afterwards, everyday was sunny and beautiful. Made for a great week of mountain riding. The cabin was beautiful and pretty close to the grocery store and various restaurants. Judy the owner, is about as pleasant of a person as you can find.

Judy was very helpful and accommodating, great host! The house has a beautiful view. The kitchen is stocked with everything one needs to cook a meal. The beds are comfy, and it's so peaceful on the mountain that you'll sleep like a baby. We spent the week at John C Campbell. Folk School, wish we had had more time to enjoy the view from the deck.

Relaxing from Folk School
This comfortable cozy cabin provided a needed retreat from my Folk School class. I love Folk School, but it certainly was nice to have a perfect place to relax when finished for the evening. Super porches, nice roomy rooms. There are 3 steps going up to the porch but then it's all on one level. I really enjoyed the walk-in shower and the king size bed on the main level. There were desks in both the main and the guest room, if you need to do a little work while your here. Judy checked in to make sure all was good at check in. I came in February and the weather was awesome, but I would note if the weather was snowy or icy, the hill may be difficult to navigate without a four wheel drive.

Living in Miami Beach the mountains were just what we needed. From the reservation to the visit and departure, everything thing went very smooth. Judy was very much on top of all the questions and needs and the home was completely equipped for relaxing and cooking. The fireplace was great place to sit in front of since we had snow one day and night. Just a wonderful vacation. Hope to return soon.

Post-holiday peacefulness at Haven in the Hills
Overall, we had a wonderful time during our 8 night stay. The owner provided everything you could possibly need for that length stay and then some. The cabin is well-stocked for cooking and coziness, with plenty of space for two to four people to move about with ease. Since it was just the spouses on this trip. we only used the master bedroom and bath, but the secondary was quite nice as well and clean. Plenty of games available if you wish to stay indoors for the day. The appliances worked great, and the inside laundry was a nice feature to have. We also appreciated all of the Things To Do brochures, books and the binder that the owner prepared. Very helpful! The cabin was tidy and clean, and we felt more than comfortable there. I would suggest a quick dusting of the ceiling fans however for those with dust allergies. The cabin was decorated so cute for Christmas and the fireplace was just lovely and operated with total ease! The neighborhood is cabins only but well spaced, and we felt safe coming and going without any concern. Even chatted with a neighbor on our morning walks up the steep roadway. Great place to get in some leg exercises! ;) We truly have no complaints, and are planning to return this Fall for another week. We had actually wanted to extend our stay last week, but could not reach the owner for permission. This is out of character for her, so we do sincerely hope that she is alright. The cabin is quite close to Murphy and Brasstown. It was the perfect choice for a relaxing and peaceful post-holiday getaway. Looking forward to a return trip!
