Literally all amenities didn't work
The master bedroom door was standing open when we arrived, when going through the house to be sure there wasnt an intruder, the door and frame to the closet falls off, then we go to use the hot tub, it doesn't work. Then we try the sauna, nope, it doesn't work. Then we go to bed, the TV in the master doesn't work. The house was nasty. Hair clouds all over, dust all over, a toenail on my bed side table. Very unhappy. Hoping to be refunded because this is awful.

Steep Hill
The place was very clean lot's of space. The home came with Board games, fool's ball amd ping pong table, tv's in main spaces not bedrooms, books to read, fire pit, grill, sauna, jacuzzi, washing machine, dryer, dish washer. The only problem was that dam steep hill!! Be forewarned it's super dark and no lights once you get into the are of the house. One of our cars couldn't make it up the hill at all. The other made it half way, but this was during the night where we couldn't see. Had to drive up backwards. Other than that the place is very very nice!!

Couples Valentine’s Weekend
Absolutely loved the cabin and the amenities offered. The privacy for our three couples was great but had awesome fun in the common areas. We grilled, enjoyed the balcony and fire pit. We would suggest a Keurig and new mattress for the king bed. Everything else was top-notch! Would definitely refer and may very well be back!

Great stay
House was beautiful, loved the sauna and hot tub. We were extremely comfortable, and there was everything we needed there. I only wish the check in process had been clearer, I did have to write several times to figure it out. Also, other reviews have mentioned the driveway - we thought our SUV would make it up, but we couldn't get all the way up. It was fine, we could walk, but just keep it in mind!

Girl's weekend Getaway retreat
We had a wonderful time enjoying the beautiful waterfalls and relaxing in the very comfortable and roomy "Altitude with Attitude" mountain home! The beds were comfortable, and kitchen was well stocked with essential cooking items. the check-in process and check-out process was simple. Lovely towns of Sylva and Dillsboro were perfect - got nails down and hiked and played games. A Great place for us - thank you for your hospitality.

Beautiful view but bugs everywhere in the house.
The home has a beautiful view from the front porch. It is close to town for shopping. There were ladybugs and stink bugs everywhere in the house. They were getting in somewhere. No screens on many upstairs windows. We called the management company for help with that and to let them know there was no coffee maker. They said someone would come by to bring one and see about the bugs. No one ever came and no one ever checked back in with us. We bought our own coffee maker and cleaned out bugs all weekend.

Beautiful house but some things you need to know
The cabin was beautiful but we did run into some problems. The fireplace wouldn’t work. I don’t know if it was out of gas. The hot tub wouldn’t work as far as bubbles. It finally started to warm up but if you turned on the bubbles the whole thing would shut off and you have to use the electrical box. The biggest issue was there wasn’t any indication that going up the driveway should be a problem except in snowy or ice conditions. I drive a Hyundai Sonata and my friends drive a jeep cherokee (with brand new tires) and a Honda accord v6. The Honda got stuck halfway up and was sliding in place on the wet pavement due to how steep it is. She had to go back to the bottom and speed up it to have enough momentum. The jeep also slipped but made it up a little easier, but you could smell the burning rubber. Then I couldn’t get mine up to the top and was sliding side to side and have to go back down and drive up in reverse. It is a long steep driveway so it was dangerous. Every time Before we left the house we had to use the shovel in the garage all of the way down the driveway to move leaves out of the way, but even without leaves it was like I’ve and it’s you could barely walk up and down without falling on your butt. Also, the electronic locks battery was dead and we didn’t have the code for the lock box. Hurricane Helene came through so we were left without internet or cell service so contacting support was near impossible and I had to rely on satellites to sneak messages out. Aside from the little inconveniences and not being able to utilize the hot tub and fireplace, which was pretty disappointing, it was a beautiful house with a beautiful view and lots of comfy beds for everyone

Great cabin for vacation and relaxation
We had an absolute blast at this cabin!!!! It is extremely spacious with 3 levels. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 out of 5 is the heel you gave to drive up to get to the cabin but we got use to it after a few times lol.

Good time for a big family
First of all, a first-rate view of the surrounding mountains . Plenty of accessories available for kitchen, sleeping, and bathing. Really enjoyed the hot tub. Groceries, nice parks especially for the kiddies, tubing and rafting close by, not to mention Biltmore and Cherokee

Mostly Great, but Needs a Little Upkeep
This property was mostly great. The views are spectacular and the layout and accommodations are fantastic. The surrounding area is really lovely with a lot of interesting options for day trips. There were a few important things that could use some work or were disappointing: - The grill did not work. This was actually a pretty big bummer as we spend a ton of time fixing a big 40th birthday dinner of burgers, kabobs etc., had it all ready to go, and then found that the grill was broken. We then spent a few hours trying to get it to work- switching out propane tanks. When I called the customer service line the gal was nice but ultimately just took note of it and didn't offer any kind of fix. - That brings me to the next item that was a bit off. The kitchen stove was awful to cook on. The temp control on the burners is rubbed off so it's a bit of a guess what level the burners are on. There is no hood so trying to cook the burgers on the skillet was an oil nightmare.There are not enough glasses for each person to have one at a time. I'm sure they get broken over time, so this is more a note that it's likely time to replace some. - The hot tub is also likely ready for a flush and refill. It smelled like seaweed/kelp. All of that is to say that if the above were fixed I would 100% rebook. This place is truly great but if you arrive and plan to use some of the accomodations that you are relying on (like the grill) check as soon as you arrive to make sure there is time to fix.

Great views, very nice house
I must say this house does have ATTITUDE, and a mighty good one! The views were fantastic to wake up to every morning! Loved the deck and spent a lot of time around the fire table! Watch out for the driveway! It is STEEP! Can't imagine how you'd get up there in the snow, but when you do, it'll be worth it! This is the kind of house where if you don't enjoy it, it's your own fault!

Family fun.
We enjoyed our stay at Altitude with Attitude. House was clean, overall. I just wish windows, fans and under couches were a concern to homeowners. Looking out the windows at that beautiful view would be so much better if dirt wasn’t all in the corners of the windows. Good amenities, good space, great view!

Perfect weekend
Everything was great! Yes the driveway was steep but we expected and it and everything was good to go. I love that this house had some of the staples for the kitchen already there. The little things you may forget and leave at home. The home was comfortable. THE VIEW WAS AMAZING. There was plenty of room for everyone and everyone had a great time!
