Perfect getaway
This secluded mountain home is perfect to escape the hustle and bustle of the everyday grind. We stayed for 5 days and 4 nights and it exceeded our expectations. The home is beautiful and comfortable, the stream out back and the game room were great ways to enjoy ourselves. Not to mention the location being within an hour driving distance to just about everything we wanted to get out and explore. I would highly recommend this location and my family looks forward to our next trip

The property is lovely and very clean. Our only complaint was there was no gas available for the gas grill, only two empty canisters and an unclean grill. We realize things happen and we were able to use the stove inside so all went well.

Tranquility Falls was the perfect place for our three week stay! Quiet, great location, everything we needed and then some! It was a terrific home away from home. Appreciated the grill, fire pit and game room. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. Near enough to hiking spots and the little towns for restaurants and shopping.

This was the first trip my wife and I have taken with our new baby. It was perfect. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The creek/waterfall beside the house was very tranquil. It was in a great location near the entrance to the Smoky Mountain park and Blue Ridge Parkway. We plan on staying again.

View waterfall from all living spaces.
The location is great with several small towns within a 15-20 minute drive. There are several great grocery stores and shopping in these little towns. The house has everthing you need. It was hard to leave it on our last day. We will be back. We arrived to a blanket of snow and it was post card beautiful. The snow melted and everywhere you looked was still so pretty and clean. There is a view of the back yard waterfall from all the living areas and the master bedroom. We loved every minute of our stay. We have used VRBO for many years, several times a year and this is the best stay yet.

Idyllic setting, but very slow internet
The location, minutes from Cherokee, Bryson City and the Great Smokey National Park is ideal. The setting is like a fairy land, with a waterfall and rapids just a few short yards from the deck. Truly spectacular! The only problem was the v-e-r-y s-l-o-w Internet. Seriously, download speeds just under 1 Mbps; upload 0.35 Mbps. This is about the speed of dial up Internet from a generation ago. I brought our Apple TV, hoping we might be able to live stream movies. Not a chance. You might ask, “If you’re in a pristine location, close to so many outdoor activities, why would Internet speed be a big deal?” Well, my wife and I are in our mid-70’s. We just like to escape the dog days of Florida summers and head for the mountains. Aside from a few sight-seeing adventures, we enjoy activities which are pretty much the same as our routines back home, many of which require high speed Internet access (e.g. minimum download speeds of 25 Mbps). Aside from that one issue, we would certainly return. The venue is clean and very comfortable. Welcome touches included a bundle of firewood for the firepit that is a few feet from the aforementioned waterfall, pool and ping-pong tables, a large screen TV and a reasonably well-equipped kitchen. We left a list of suggested, minor improvement for the owners. We enjoyed a wonderful week in the mountains, particularly being lulled to sleep, listening to the waterfall, with temperatures that welcomed open windows in August. Tip: when suggesting that entry instructions be printed prior to attempting to enter the key code, take note! We neglected to take this advice and had to drive down to where we could access a Verizon cell signal to get the instructions. In addition to lousy Internet, there was no cell service. (Although a VOIP telephone is provided.)

Breathtaking!!!
Such a wonderful place to experience God’s creation! The waterfalls were unexpectedly magnificent! The game room provided an added element of fun with my teenagers after our outdoor adventures. The owners have definitely thought of most everything to make you feel like their personal guests. The home was the cleanest we have ever rented. So easy to access with paved roads and no steep grades. Simply awesome!!

Even better than the photos!
What a gorgeous home and the property is so spactacular, the pictures online do not do it justice. The back wrap around porch/ deck is somewhere you could spend the day and eating out there is a pleasure. If you decide to eat in the dining room, you have a stunning view of the back yard waterfall. The grill is such a plus— so easy to fix dinner. This is a place we will definitely come back to. Cannot wait for the next trip there. Great location for water sports, nanthhala whitewater rafting and. Zip lining , deep creek whitewater tubing and hiking, and waterfall tour of the area. The fire pit was. Perfect for evenings and making s’mores. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home and property with us.

We loved everything about this place! Pictures don’t do it justice! Their property was a winter Wonderland for us. It snowed Christmas Eve throughout Christmas Day! The kitchen has everything we needed and we loved the lush green backyard with the water falls and huge rocks! Everywhere we turned it was a Kodak moment. We will be back for sure!

Absolutely beautiful! Very clean, had everything we needed for a great stay! Open the window or sit on the deck to watch & listen to the water rushing, or open the front to hear the birds. It’s the best of both worlds if you love nature. Nice area to walk around in ! Even when it rains, there’s plenty of sheltered outdoor space to sit outside. Highly recommend!
