Private and relaxing

The stream really set the mood for relaxation. It's very private with no other homes visible and the layout is wonderful for a family. Porches are made for just chilling and the stream is perfect for kids along with the campfire circle beside the stream The owner was very accommodating and a pleasure to talk to. We highly recommend this home

Mountain Getaway

The house was everything we hoped for. It was very clean and had all the knik knacks you need with a couple gifts to boot. Great listening to the creek on the porch and a nice Christmas tree added to the living room decor. Geat place!

Loved the house and its location by the creek. We stayed outside the whole time just listening to the water. So peaceful that we fell asleep on the porch multiple times. And our furbaby loved getting his feet wet.

Magical Getaway

This property is just beautiful and such a unique place to stay. This was our second stay here and we can’t wait to come back again. Our dogs loved playing in the creek in the afternoons. The kitchen had everything we needed. Relaxing on the covered deck at night was our favorite thing to do. We highly recommend this beautiful property.

Absolutely magical!

My husband and I brought our three kids here under the age of ten. The pictures just can’t capture the magic of this place, the creek is absolutely stunning, the kids had fun swimming and making their way down stream to a little waterfall and back. We spent several days just at the house between day trips to other locations. The house has so much more than the typical rental which was such a bonus. The house is very cool and fun, very clean. The creek can be heard from every space in the house, many hours were spent lying in the porch reading and doing puzzles. We watched the fireflies at night. We did not want to leave at all! Hosts were so wonderful, we found a bees nest and they came over to take care of it right away and were extremely responsive. Loved it, highly recommend!

What a fantastic home away from home. On our way back home the kids wanted back now!

The best relaxing place to be! There are waterfalls. Fenced area for dogs, fenced decks for safety of kids and dogs. There is an awesome kitchen with everything imaginable. And of course, awesome hostess! Hope to return sometime! Thank you so much for a fantastic mini vacation!

Amazing Property

Super comfortable stay for all 6 of us. Lots of seating inside and out! The house was packed with supplies, clean, roomy and the best part for us was the porch, as it looks out to the beautiful stream and trees. Plenty of parking for 3 cars, 3 transport trailers and 3 motorcycles. The driveway was gravel, but fairly packed down and very level. Location was excellent to all of the amazing roads this area has to offer. We will definitely keep this place in mind for our next Great Smoky Mountain trip.

Birthday/Mothers Day vacation

The cabin is just BEAUTIFUL. Peaceful and relaxing with the creek running beside it. Privacy but still located to many attractions to go do/see.. We did the Great Smokey Railraod (40 min drive) and went to see waterfalls (20 min drive). The cabin is well stocked with all the appliances plates silverware cups Etc you will need . The owners are easy to reach if need and Very Nice. We will definitely be going back.
