    Comfortable, amazing stay, hosts are wonderful people and very easy to communicate with. Everything worked great. Scenery was to die for and everything was beyond my expectations. I recommend spending time here as its well worth it. Thank you for allowing us the amazing stay.

    The host was wonderful. The cabin and area are relaxtion perfection. My only complain is the walk up to the cabin door. In the picture you are viewing the basement which you do not have access to. The entry door is up a rock/gravel hill that is not easy to navigate. Overall though this was a wonderful place to stay for a mountain getaway.

    Home is beautiful and “ for sale” by the way.Large relaxing porch, fire pit, well-stocked kitchen, good water pressure ( important for me) and quiet setting. Enjoyed walking down to the river and watching the deer,

    We had an exceptional time at this cabin stay! Cabin was spacious and cozy, loved the patio deck spaces, and the bonfire area was so lovely especially with the hanging lights. Just be very careful when driving into the gravel driveway going up to the parking area! There’s a ditch on both sides of the gravel driveway entrance so it would be wise to have someone step out of the car to make sure the driver doesn’t drive into the ditch. Be careful when driving out of the drive way too! Other than that, loved the place!

    Loved the deer that came to be fed each morning. Cabin is very nice and comfortable. It’s very far into coosawattee and you have to drive on a one lane road. It’s a steep gravel driveway so you definitely need four wheel drive.

    The house is beautifully decorated with traditional cabin decor and the neighborhood is very safe and scenically placed close to the river. The process checking into the cabin was easy, but the walk up to the front door is not easy, so parking above is preferred but a 4 wheel drive is mandatory for parking above. So anyone with a 2WD must park below and walk up the difficult pathway. What was also very unfortunate about our stay that the listing states are a part of your amenities is…. -The dishwasher was broken -the washer and dryer unplugged and dryer does not work -the bottom glass in the refrigerator is broken so you can’t place anything on it -there was no propane to have a small fire on the balcony -there was a light bulbs out in the upstairs bathroom -the tv/remote did not work so we had to download an app on our phones to work the tv which took a couple hours and the host was informed and didn’t help at all with any Solution We also tried to reach out about some of these things not working in the cabin and were ignored. So overall would not recommend staying at this listing until these issues are addressed.

    Booked this cabin for a relaxing break from my work as a teacher. I was disappointed because the washing machine AND dishwasher did not work. Driveway was VERY steep and unpaved, so it made getting groceries inside difficult. It takes a long time to get from the house to the entrance of the resort

    We booked this rental due to it being close to the vineyard we were attending a wedding at. Even though it was close mileage wise, it still took 30 minutes to get there. The drive up the mountain was an adventure!! But so worth it!! This property is beautiful!!! And the owners make sure it is stocked with everything you may need! Including laundry pods and coffee. They truly went above and beyond to take care of us and to make us feel welcome!!
