Easy to get to! Game options (pool table) and movie theatre were nice. Fire pit had no chairs and we would have liked for wood to be available versus having to bring our own. Felt the dishes and bedding were not clean. House needed maintenance (in my opinion). Closet doors were off the hinges, upstairs bathroom door did not close, curtain rods were hanging, downstairs shower curtain fell down during shower, floors were buckling in some areas. Also frequently ran out of hot water with a full house. Lots of traffic on the street from neighbors up the street.

Every year we bring our graduating seniors to the Smokies for a Spring retreat, and this was one of the best places we have ever stayed in. Spacious, tons of amenities, and excellent location. The theater is such a unique addition to the space and was a lot of fun. Would definitely return!

House was just as beautiful as it appears online. Beds were comfy and the outdoor decks/firepit area was lovely. We were able to enjoy time with our family and host a couple of dinners with extended family as there was plenty of space. The choice of activities and things to do were a huge hit with our group across all ages, and we all had a lot of fun. Would highly recommend this cabin for any family gathering!

Wow! What an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. Rachel, the owner, was a dream to communicate with, answering every question in a timely fashion even before our arrival. I planned a surprise getaway for a birthday with friends and this cabin did not disappoint. Everything we needed was in the cabin from a toaster, plenty of silverware and plates, washer/dryer, toiletries (stocked with shampoo/conditioner/soap in every bathroom), blankets for everyone, and even multiple fireplaces throughout for warmth! It was so wonderful we never even left for the whole weekend aside from a quick grocery trip (only 15 min away) to a fully stocked Ingles. There were plenty of bathrooms for everyone which is a huge plus for a larger group! We also had a whole weekend of entertainment from the pool table, air hockey, ping pong, theatre, ski ball, hot tub, and fireplace! The grill had propane and we used it several times. They even had firewood and fire starters for the pit. I can’t thank Rachel enough for making this a very special and stress-free weekend by thinking of everything in her cabin. Thank you again for the amazing rental- we made so many memories!

We absolutely loved staying here. It isn't easy to find a place that can comfortably sleep 8, so this was a no-brainer for our group. The views are spectacular, the hot tub is perfectly located, the downstairs theater was perfect for college football on Saturday. And the grill was a great touch to cook some delicious steaks. We were within arms distance of Bryson City for outdoor adventures like UTV rentals, tubing, and more. And close to grocery for stocking that huge kitchen. All in all, we can't wait to stay here again. Couldn't recommend enough!
