Charming Waterfront Cabin On The Oconaluftee River in Cherokee NC!

Loved this cabin after ten years of marriage it was just what we needed. My husband got a 3 day fishing pass and loved fishing off of the dock. The rain hitting the roof was so relaxing like no one else was around for miles is the way we felt. If I had anything bad to say it was it didn’t last long enough lol. The parking was tricky but we got it down thank you.

Secluded, quiet location. River view. Clean and well maintained property.

The host Miss Day was wonderful she made my wife and I feel at home on our anniversary getaway. The cabin was spotless and cozy and stocked with everything we needed. Shopping was easily i'm accessible i would highly recommend this cozy cabin by the river as a romantic getaway.

We loved our stay in the love nest! We were far away enough from others to have our privacy, yet we were minutes away from downtown Cherokee. We thoroughly enjoyed our views and the private dock. We just wish that we would have brought our kayaks!

Loved this cute cabin! The outdoor open area with waterfront view was perfect! Great for a cozy, quiet place to stay !

Everything was great . Had a very relaxing time !!!

The cabin was super cute and right on the river. Everything was clean and comfortable. Day checked in with us often, to make sure we were doing well. The only downsides was there is no couch in the cabin and the driveway is super steep. We would definitely stay here again.

Although the directions were a little confusing, the host reached out to us before it was an issue and was very helpful. The only thing that would have made the stay better would be an easier way to walk down to the dock. Overall, even with the confusing directions and difficulty getting down to the dock I would recommend it to others and I would stay there again.

I really loved my stay at the “Love Nest”. Everything was extremely clean and for me it was all about the relaxing view of the water from the porch. When I was there I spent the majority of my time sitting on that porch staring out at the river. The porch overlooks the calmer part of the water so it looks a bit like a lake more than a section of river with rapids. The serenity of sitting out there among the trees and water is definitely the selling point of this place. The cabin has a lot of positives! It is a really cool property with a lot of personality. For me it everything was perfectly fine, but my wife has some back issues and a simple thing like a recliner or some kind of comfortable seating option in the room would have really gone a long way and been a game changer for her. There are only hard wood chairs to sit in or the bed. And unfortunately the bed was just a bit too soft for her as well as she needs a firmer mattress w her issues. A few little upgrades in those categories would definitely be big. I would say this property would be best suited for a young couple who are active or for one person who isn’t as worried about a bad back ;o) Aside from that I really enjoyed my time. and I had such a restful/relaxing feeling there which is exactly what I was hoping for! I hope to come back again in the future!!!

Such an adorable place and loved the water and dock.

Yes the river was very peaceful and beautiful. No bugs bothering us. The home is comfy and cozy and we found it to be a new get away. So thankful I spotted it on VRBO.

Cabin is very clean, private and peaceful. Location is just a few minutes from everything you need and the host day was very pleasant. We were already planning another stay before we left. Place is amazing.

Great cabin! Very nice place, host was very nice and checked in to make sure everything was ok. We also enjoyed the riverfront and the dock

Great place to have a quiet getaway.

Overall everything was charming. Our host made sure we were happy and ok. We had everything we needed for a comfortable, peaceful, relaxing stay. We are already planning our next trip.

Great location close to anything you could want or need. I highly recommend this place. Secluded but within mins of town. The water was crystal clear. The place itself spotless and perfect for a couple getting away. If you’re going to Cherokee don’t pass up on this place!

Nice and quiet.

The cabin is fabulous for a couples getaway! Every furnishing was perfect. Spotlessly clean.

Clean cabin with a great view from the balcony

Great little cabin.

Cozy and quaint waterfront studio cabin. Everything you need is there. Comfortable beds and storage. Perfect for two. Our hostess was awesome and very attentive. 5 min from cherokee.

This was our second stay in the cabin and we will be back. It's the perfect place to unplug, relax and leave the rest of the world behind. Day is wonderful and very easy to work with!

Easy to check in and great communication from the host. We didn’t want to leave and have already been talking about coming back. Beautiful cabin overlooking river. Well maintained and clean. Day had the cabin well stocked and checked in occasionally. Maybe we’ll have better luck fishing next time.

We used this as a home base for slow mornings on the patio and hiking in GSMNP. It was about a 15 minute drive to the entrance of the park. We appreciated the quiet area. Day was super easy to communicate with and was super flexible. No complaints from us!

Beautiful place! Will definitely stay again!

Very cute lil place, tucked away in a great location! Loved the lake view from the deck. Enjoyed bird watching, ( bring your binoculars!)Hubbie and I brought our own Umbrella and stand with a couple chairs to fish on deck. We got a few nibbles that’s about it. Kitchen is very small with no oven BUT doable and nice grill outside. Definitely made for a couples getaway my husband and I LOVED IT! Miss Day was an awesome host! We will be back

We enjoyed a quiet, peaceful 3 night stay and hope to stay again in the future! The cabin is exactly as advertised and it felt as if we were up in a tree house! Sitting out on the porch area was our favorite. The view of the river is so relaxing. We were fortunate enough to see 2 bald eagles flying over the water! Hubby enjoyed fishing from the dock and caught a couple of nice trout.This is the perfect getaway for a couple! It’s clean, cozy and has everything you need.

a lovely little spot!! an amazing location, and the balcony/bar outside is so nice for it! fantastic place for visiting the smokies

The cabin was great, just the right size and the view was amazing!

Beautiful, tranquil surroundings with an intimate & cozy cabin. Close to Cherokee & all that offers. We’ll definitely go again!

Relaxing

Good will return

The cabin was very clean and cozy! Perfect getaway for 2! Very impressed and will return!

We had a fantastic time at this cabin in Cherokee, NC! The place was very clean and well-maintained, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The weather was perfect during our stay, which added to our enjoyment. One of the highlights of our trip was the elk viewing—it was truly a remarkable experience! We also came for a concert, and it did not disappoint. All in all, it was an amazing weekend filled with great memories. I highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of the area!

This is a great spot to stay. It has all you need to enjoy a peaceful stay. The driveway is not for the faint as you're in the mountains, but it wasn't an issue. The next time we're in Cherokee to fish we will stay here. Thanks Day!

Cabin was perfect for a couple! Very cozy and the river view was definitely relaxing.

My wife and I found this property perfect for a romantic getaway for 2. It was just enough room for us to feel comfortable.

The bungalow was clean and neat and comfortable. The river view was beautiful and we fished but didn't catch anything (newbies). The dock was really nice to relax on.
