Additional info:
Our internet is generally reliable. I would say it is 98% reliable. Works great for Roku TVs, zoom meetings and everything we’ve tried it for so far. I also, have T-mobile cell phone service and get 5g full signal with no problem throughout the home. I am told Verizon works well also. There is also WIFI calling available via internet, if your phone is capable. The main-level fan remotes are labeled North(Kitchen side) and South(front entry side). TVs will ask you for Guest login, set date of your departure and it will log you out.
The home is on a spring-fed water supply, there is filtered water on the refrigerator door and a brita filter inside the refrigerator. We drink and enjoy the water, it has been tested and it has a clean and pure taste, also makes amazing coffee. That being said, if you have any concerns, please bring your own bottled water for drinking.
The home is on a private road. GPS should take you right to the home's driveway. The road is paved near the bottom and becomes gravel/dirt as it winds up the mountain. Please travel at a safe speed and be prepared if an oncoming vehicle is encountered. There are water breaks across the road, which also act as reminders for maintaining a safe speed. Drive carefully, like you are in your own neighborhood. If it snows, it can get a little tricky. Use your own judgment if you think you need a 4wd/awd. We have driven numerous 2wd(front wheel drive) sedans up and down in all seasons without difficulty, but something with clearance like a Corvette would likely encounter difficulty at the water breaks. Motorcycles are certainly welcome, just be prepared for a gravel/dirt road. I could ride a full dressed touring bike up the road(carefully), just know it might be dusty and/or slick certain times of the year. A dual sport bike is certainly at home on this type of road.
Several of the homes lights are on timers, but the wall switches will override on or off at any time. These are set to light the home in the evening for coming and going. If you prefer them to be off the timer, let me know and I will disable them.
There could be bears on the property. I haven’t seen one while I have been there, but it is very possible as we are in the heart of bear country. Do not leave food or food garbage outside unless bagged and in the trash can.
Took our teenage daughers and friends to a football game. The house perfect in everyway. Plenty of room for everyone, the wrap-around porch was great, house was clean, plenty of supplies, easy check in. And Beau was great throughout the process. Highly recommend Thank you
We celebrated our anniversary with a trip to the Smokey Mountains and to see the beautiful colors of Fall. This 'Cozy Mountain Cottage' was the perfect place for us to stay. Beautiful views, comfortable bed, adequate space, plenty of amenities, so much can be said about it but perfect describes it for us! Thank you host for all you have poured into this cottage and listing.
This house was great. The views were spectacular and the home is very comfortable. We really enjoyed the fire pit as well.
Had a great time! This place is amazing and the views were spectacular! Everything was as advertised and the level of detail and thoughtfulness in every single amenity and extras were much appreciated! We will definitely be back!
Enjoyable visit. Highway noise a bit of a surprise, but a big deal.
We were up for a wedding for our son, in the house was very nice. A lot of amenities and very clean. Spectacular view!
Great stay to visit our daughter who works at WCU.
The view was amazing from the porch, and the house has a very welcome home feeling. They have a lot of outdoor furniture so you can relax while watching the mountain view. Definitely will want to come back for future vacations.
We had a wonderful visit at the cabin. Rest and recharge!
This served as the perfect place for a girls weekend getaway. The house was in wonderful shape - clean and had everything we could ask for. Communication with the owner was also very good as he always offered quick responses. Would recommend!!
Clean and beautiful mountain home with a great view of the mountains. The house is secluded and surrounded by plenty of trees. The driveway was challenging but so are many in the mountains. The house was well stocked with amenities and has a nice fire pit to roast marshmallows by.
This was a beautiful, well appointed cabin that was perfect for our family ranging from infant to adults. We hope to stay again!
Absolutely beautiful cabin with the luxury of a hotel. The view of the mountain at sunset after the storm painted a picture as if the mountain was on fire. Just fabulous. Lots of thought and care taken by owners with everything labeled, stocked kitchen, as well as extras like bath products and phone chargers. Will be back no question.
This is a gorgeous property that’s decorated beautifully with even more beautiful views. It’s through fully stocked with all items you’d need as a guest. You can tell from the minute you arrive that the owners take great pride and care in their home. I’d recommend this property anyone and stay again. The only downside was the drive up to the home. It’s difficult to get to and the road is quite rough.
