Very secluded private and quiet. Just exactly what we needed! Host is very gracious and communication was easy. The cabin is at the peak of the mountain so the views are amazing and temperature was always cool, that being said the driveway is a bit steep but well maintained.

We spent most of our trip hiking and the cabin was a perfect place to start and end the day. The location is unbeatable, tucked away up in the mountains. Super close to Bartram trail and Cheoah bald. The drive isn’t bad once you get down into the gorge. We stocked up on groceries from an Ingles in Andrews and grilled every night. In the opposite direction there’s a neat outfitters store in Wesser, and Bryson city is nearby as well as the southern edge of the smokies. If you take Waya road south the lake isn’t too far, and I’d definitely suggest hiking Siler bald. The view from the top is beautiful, and it’s not a difficult hike compared to Cheoah Bald. Also from the fire watch tower on Waya Bald you can view both Siler and Cheoah bald, which is pretty cool to see after hiking either of those. Franklin is also close by that area, and I’d suggest walking through the town if you have the chance.Dan and Sheila are very nice and responsive if anything comes up. When we visit Nantahala again, we’ll definitely return to this cabin.

My soon to be and I stayed four days at this beautiful and quite hidden mountaintop cabin with the intent of searching nearby areas to get married and hopefully eventually move to.

An amazing getaway

We've stayed here once before and enjoyed it so much we decided to come back during a different season. We love the peace and quiet here and the view from the front patio is so perfect that we spent most of our time outside taking it all in. The cabin itself is perfect and has everything you could possibly need. The driveway up isn't paved, but we had no trouble driving up in my VW Golf front wheel drive. We'll definitely be staying again here in the future!

Spectacular Cabin

Shayla and Dan were amazing hosts, available to answer any questions I had and provided great information about the cabin once we arrived. The pictures really don’t do this cabin justice. Gorgeous views and literally everything we needed was available to us. It was the most peaceful away from everything trip we’ve ever been able to find. A absolute pleasure to wind down with only the distraction of birds and squirrels.

A break from chemo to a wonderful mountain cabin

My mother has fought cancer for the last few years. This year it came back in her lungs. She took a couple of weeks off from treatment to give her body a break and relax. This cabin provided the most perfect place for her to rest and enjoy the mountain air. Not to mention my father and I are lovers of the mountains as well. Dan and Shayla were the perfect hosts, great commutation and very kind. The cabin was beautifully decorated and clean. We had a fabulous stay.

Home Away From Home

This property has now become our favorite. Coming from a busy area in Florida all we wanted was peace and quiet and this quaint cabin gave us just that. Dan was the perfect host checking in on us and providing us places to eat in town and making sure we stopped at the grocery store before we drove to the cabin. The drive into the cabin was epic and the hot tub was the icing on the cake. Highly recommend. Even my teenager daughter had a great time.

Getting lost cabin getaway

The Cabin was perfect. Clean and stocked with some essentials. Firewood available for the fire place and fire pit. Be prepared to get groceries before you arrive as this cabin is very remote. We had no cell service for 8 miles surrounding the cabin. Getting inside was a little difficult as the key pad didn’t work and no cell service. We had to drive back out many miles to call and get the key code. Owners were wonderful. If you want to get off the grid and get away, this is your place.

Peace and Tranquility

I cannot say enough positive things about this rental. The cabin is cozy and comfortable. The kitchen is stocked. The bed is comfortable. The owners are friendly and easy to get ahold of. The location is the absolute best part. The cabin is secluded and quiet. We left the windows open day and night and enjoyed the mountain air and natural sounds. The views are beautiful. We barely scratched the surface on the many hiking trails nearby. We will most definitely rent this cabin again if given the opportunity!

We’ve been doing this for years. It was our 46 anniversary. By far the best cottage we’ve rented. We both enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets. Watching the birds and the squirrels and chipmunks listening to. listening to the owls. The cabin, on arrival was very very clean. You felt like you were at home as you were entered the cabin, well supplied with everything that you might need when you enjoy the campfires . Although it rained with a covered porch. it was very pleasant.we will definitely stay again .
