This was a great weekend getaway for two. Close to Bryson City, 20 mins from Cherokee and an hour an half from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. The hot tube was great after a day of walking even in the cold evening temps.

Cabin for Polar Expreza
So perfect for our family's annual Polar Express Adventure, the kids enjoyed the hot tub and loft. The cabin was as described and plenty of space for the five of us. Very ckean and host was quick to respond and informative. We will be back in the summer. Highly recommend as a place to stay with family.

Holiday getaway
Overall nice cabin, could use a little TLC on the steps and walk way to and from the hot tub. A few throw blankets for lounging after a long day of sight seeing and hiking would be nice. The internet is not so great so streaming movies had a lot of buffering but kind of expected that being up in the mountains it was really cold and Troy wasn’t happy with the comforter in the master so he brought us a brand new one that was so warm and comfortable. Glad we were in a Jeep not sure a sedan would make it up the steep dirt/gravel driveway especially after a good rain.

First of all the description said 2 minute walk to the railroad. It was a 10 minute drive. There were dirty dishes in the cabinet, blood in the bathroom, and mold on the shower curtain. There was an actual huge hole in the wall in the den with cold air coming through it. It was 16 the first night and the heater stopped working. When I complained to the owner, he said to use the oven to warm the house. He said the heater would work once it warmed up outside; not really how a heater should work. He did bring a small space heater for us to put in my 84 year old mother’s room. This place has not been truly cleaned in a long time.

Not in downtown Bryson City
The house was nice and outside of a few minor issues with with check in (missing a top sheet in the master bedroom and not getting the code for the door) both of which the host rectified very quickly, the house was fine. The major issue for us was that the listing represents itself as if it were within or very close to downtown Bryson. It has 1 min walking distances to a couple of items in downtown. The house is actually about a 15 min drive outside of town up the side of a nice mountain. For us this was a big issue. We had booked the listing for walkablity around town and the listing missrepresented where it was.

Secluded Getaway
My husband, two dogs, and I loved staying in the cabin. Nightly fire pits made us feel like we were in a State Park and had it all to ourselves. If a peaceful, secluded stay is what you’re looking for (which it was for us), then I highly recommend this property. Just a few minutes drive from Bryson City. I highly recommend the train ride! Enjoyed the downtown shops and restaurants.

Absolutely amazing!!
We stayed at this cabin from Oct. 23rd-Oct. 27th. It was great being so close to Bryson City and Nantahala Outdoor Center being close by as well. Very private and secluded. Troy Snow was absolutely amazing as well! We got there and found there was a Keurig in the cabin, but we prefer regular coffee pots. He did bring us a Mr. Coffee pot to use during our stay. I look forward to hopefully renting this cabin again in the future.

Nice place, secluded and peaceful location
Place has everything you need and it's just off the grid enough for peace & quiet. Troy drove up right when we got there to make sure everything was good. That's something you rarely get when renting a place. Cabin has everything you need and the hot tub was great. Wouldn't hesitate to book it again. My only minor complaint is that VRBO has the location showing it's walking distance from Bryson City. It's about 8 miles outside of town. But, that's fine because we wanted peace & quite anyway.

Nice place for a rustic getaway without modern conveniences.
The house is small, but functional for a family of 4-5. We enjoyed the fire pit. Make sure to bring books and outside and board games. WiFi works only for texting and mail. Cannot stream. Also TV’s have Dish, but it doesn’t seem to work. We were there to celebrate our anniversary, so it didn’t matter that much. Hot tub circulates water, but does not get hot. Owner is super nice. All in all, I would stay there again.
