A wonderful retreat

A very secluded and beautiful property. Great views. My only issue was trying to decide if I wanted to sit by a really cool fire pit or relax in the awesome hot tub. Everything was clean and I was left needing nothing. Tammy and Sam were always quick to respond to questions and offer suggestions for local sights. I will be sure to recommend this place to anyone traveling this way.

Perfect weekend getaway

We had an amazing stay at this cabin! The vibes were so relaxing, and the hot tub was perfect for unwinding. The views were breathtaking, and the sounds of nature were truly unreal. The location is remote, which we loved for the peace and quiet, but it’s still close enough to all the major tourist attractions. A few things to note: parking and driving can be a bit tricky. We had a 4x4 BMW, which got us down the hill, but we couldn’t make it back up. The hill is steep and tight, so a 4x4 is definitely a must! The maintenance team was incredibly helpful, so we really appreciated that. Also, there’s no Wi-Fi in the cabin, but the host kindly offered a hotspot, and cell service was decent. Overall, a wonderful stay, just be prepared for the steep drive!

Cute little place!

The property is very cute and is located in a beautiful location. Trees have grown since the photos were taken so the view from the hot tub is not as depicted, but you can still sit in the chairs and see a beautiful view. My boyfriend and I did not have 4WD so we had to park away from the cabin. The walk down and up is a challenge, but luckily maintenance was able to help us bring our bags up at the end of our stay! Great communication with the host and quick response time. The bed was very comfortable and gave us more than enough room to get comfy. Great stay!

Amazing view

The cabin was everything we expected and more. One of the local dogs lead the way up the mountain. We never did see it again but we did appreciate the help. We had 4wd so was able to park at the cabin instead of up the hill. I would express having 4wd is necessary for this cabin. The bed was so comfy!The hot tub was amazing especially watching the sunset. I loved the fire pit! The views were absolutely stunning!! Tammy was a wonderful host and communication was easy. Would definitely recommend this to anyone. And hope to visit again!

Peaceful and Private

This tiny house is cute, cozy and clean! The hot tub and views were great. The driveway down to the house is very steep so we would probably consider parking at the top next time. The hosts were excellent- answered all of our questions promptly. We couldn’t get the AC unit to turn on so they sent the maintenance guy. He got the unit on and was very nice. We enjoyed talking with him. If you want a private, secluded, peaceful place to stay, this is it.

Perfect place to get away and relax

The tiny home is perfect for a getaway to enjoy the mountains and relax! There is just enough space to make it functional and comfortable. The hot tub is a great addition to the view and perfect place to watch the sunsets! If your car cannot make it down the driveway it is a very steep hill so be prepared for that. Communication during our stay was excellent, we got ahold of Tammy within seconds and she was very helpful. I highly recommend and hope to return!

Perfect for us!

I rented this cabin for a few nights for a Father/son spring-break getaway with my teenage son. We had a great stay, and the hosts were fantastic. When we first arrived, the smoke alarm was chirping because of a low battery. I sent a message, and Tammy was there in ten minutes with fresh batteries. She also gave us some great tips on local fishing spots! We have absolutely no complaints!

Very Private

The location was exactly as described in the ad, if you have to park at the top of the driveway and hike down, the hill is no joke. Be ready. Once you're there, though, very private. The owners were very responsive, I had set the hot tub to 'sleep' mode accidentally and maintenance called in a matter of minutes to help me. I truly enjoyed my stay.

The Perfect Place to Stay.

Our stay was absolutely amazing. Tammy is very helpful in every way. She was very quick to reply to any questions and even called to make sure we made it to the cabin okay. The breakfast options are delicious, we definitely recommend the salmon scrambler. The view is spectacular; specifically the sunset behind mountains and the view of the stars at night. I have never seen so many! The hiking trail is gorgeous. We even got to take home some home brewed beer and wine. Our dog came with us and had a great time. We frequently visit the mountains and this definitely became our favorite place to stay. It is perfectly described and the pictures don’t do it justice. We will definitely be back.

Awesome private get away!!

I rented this as a mental health get away! Just me and my dog! It was great! Perfect! I did see where they recommended don't bring big dogs! I brought my 130 lb rottweiler and he did fine but if your pup sleeps with you they won't be able to in this cabin! Also the climb down in the description is real! I have a AWD and was able to do it fine but also the last night it rained and I parked it up top just to be in the safe side! This was the perfect get away! We took a trip into N. Carolina in the Pisga National forest which was only 25 miles away! This was so worth every penny!!! We will return every year we have decided!!! The host answers and questions I asked which were very limited because there were no issues!!!

Awesome cozy tiny cabin!

We booked this for the weekend to escape the heat in Atlanta, and it was an excellent stay. Tammy and her brother were ideal hosts. Our little old sedan had some trouble getting up the gravel mountain road to the cabin, and they worked with us to drive us up in an ATV. I would recommend an SUV or some slightly more robust vehicle to get up the mountain, but we showed up after an abnormal amount of rain, and in normal conditions most cars could probably make it fine. This cabin is wonderfully isolated, and the view is incredible. Everting in the cabin was great, including the covered patio outside with a view of the mountains. The only minor hiccup was once when the water went out, but all I had to do was press a button on the pump outside to reset it, and then it was fine. While you are there do yourself a favor and take a hike up to the Buddhist monastery up the mountain. We went on a hike, and they randomly invited us in for a potluck lunch. It is a wonderfully weird and beautiful place to see just up the gravel road from this cabin. Highly recommend this place, and the hosts are awesome!

Unsafe driveway

The property manager was friendly, Smoky Mts were amazing. Although the view was beautiful, we felt the property was not safe, specifically the driveway. We have all wheel drive but apparently that was not adequate as we slit down the super steep driveway and ended up hitting the side of the cliff and the trailer's water pump. We didn't have any water that night, couldn't take showers, etc. We were very cautious about driving slow but the loose stones and dirt caused the car to slide. If we had slid over to the other side of the driveway, we would have gone over a bank into the trees. The "cabin" / tiny trailer was so small it was almost too small for 2 people. We were disappointed and now have to repair our car.

Mountain side oasis

We stayed in the Mountain Farmer for two nights and truly had the best experience. This tiny home has everything you need, you won’t want to leave. Great place to unplug and soak up the smoky Mountain View’s. They also offer breakfast delivered to your door, We ordered the salmon scrammbler and Mushroom omelette and it was delicious. Tammy responded very quickly, and was so accommodating and easygoing, which made our stay that much better. Best VRBO experience we’ve had and will definitely be back!

Beautiful tiny getaway!

Beautiful view, clean property, loved the fact that the cabins aren’t stacked on top of one another and provide plenty of privacy. When checking in a ride down in an atv would be helpful. Slick gravel, steep climb down. Don’t suggest for anyone with knee or hip issues. Fell quite a bit.

Secluded and Cozy Mountain Living

Beautiful location, clean property, cute and cozy place for two. The small mountain roads to the property were tricky with a 2WD vehicle, but the views were unbeatable! Hottub was an added bonus to enjoy the surrounding mountains and nature. The bed was comfortable, all appliances worked well, there were plenty of towels, and kitchenware. The owners were so easy to reach and communicate with. My husband and I both enjoyed our stay at Mountain Farmer. Highly recommend to nature lovers!

Super cute. Take the description seriously

Super cute and secluded cabin. Smaller than I thought, as the picture make the tiny home seem bigger. But I should have expected it. Be warned, if you do not have a 4 wheel drive or atv, the walk up and down the hill to the cabin is steep and tiring. But the hot tub and location was nice. Definitely recommend for a weekend getaway. Loved having a kitchen.

Please allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Sam and Tammy ; We ourselves were once visitors to The Great Smoky Mountains. Sam is a native Swiss/German and had always the idea to offer and operate a “back to the basics” or Vacation retreat “holiday on a family owned and operated Farm”. We traveled all over the US to see where we want to settle. It took only one visit to realize that this is where we wanted to live, work and raise our children. We went back and forward , sold our home/company and moved to what we think is a most extraordinary place.
We are extremely proud to own and operate Stuetz Mountain Retreat, where you will receive top notch personal attention to make your stay a memorable one.
