Quiet Mountain retreat

This Mountain retreat Is nestled down a long winding road up in the mountains. The property is lovely and the house itself is roomy and pleasant. Comfy bed and sofa, and great water pressure! Would stay here again, but will bring an all wheel drive vehicle next time, it was tricky getting up the driveway in our regular car. Very nice place! One last tip: Screenshot the instructions for getting into the place, in case you can’t get on the website… we had to go back down the mountain to get reception to get the key code to the gate. Otherwise had a great stay :)

Feels just like home…

This was our 2nd year staying at Michelle’s for Thanksgiving and it was just as great as the last year! The view is awesome, it’s close to every major road to get you to every town and the Blue Ridge pkwy. We always find new hikes, breweries, got on the Polar Express and did our 4th annual Christmas tree cutting at Boyd’s Christmas tree farm. I did not get a chance to give a review last year but I wanted to say what a great host Michelle is, she even mailed my hair straighter and curler back to me to Florida when I forgot it under the sink! Can’t say enough good things about it, thanks Michelle. Hope to stay again soon!

Good base for exploring the area

Property was clean and comfortable. Not too far from attractions and towns. Appliances and conveniences were functional and easy to use. Great view, even after most of the foliage had dropped. Driving up the mountain was actually kind of fun at first in our 2WD SUV. However, the driveway needs much improvement--loose gravel and rutted substrate on a sharp incline. Everything else was great!

Beautiful Mountain Retreat

Wonderful stay. Quiet neighborhood. We saw a black bear our first day and it made our trip! The owner was easy to contact for any questions and responded promptly. The view was incredible!

Perfect getaway spot

We loved staying here. It is centrally located to some great hiking spots. If you get a chance check out the Pinnacle Trail located in Sylva! This home is super cozy. It is stocked with plenty of blankets for cozy evenings, and the kitchen is stocked fully as well with all of your kitchen needs. The porch is lovely to sit in the rocking chairs and enjoy the beautiful Mountain View!

Great Mountain Retreat

The driveway was a little scary, but the view cetainly trumped everything. We would stay again! A couple of suggestions: a handicapped accessible entrance and safety bars and/or walk-in shower in at least one bathroim. These things are not deal breakers, but would certainly enhance the experience for seniors and/or individuals with disabilities. Michelle was attentive to our questions before and during our stay, which was most appreciated.

AMAZING VIEWS

I'm not going to lie, the driveway is a little scary but the view and cabin is worth it! This was truly the most incredible view we've ever had, and we've been staying in the Smokies for over 30 years. The cabin was spotless and beautifully decorated. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The cabin owner, Michelle, was extremely helpful for anything we needed. The living room tv went out, and she had a brand new one installed the next day. We had a wonderful visit!

Very comfortable and relaxing

An absolutely wonderful stay. The house was spotlessly clean and comfortable. I spent a lot of time just enjoying the view from the deck. Being centrally located between Waynesville and Bryson City makes this rental only a few minutes ride to most everything the area has to offer. We look forward to our next stay there.

This property is amazing!

Michelle was an amazing host, and this property was absolutely gorgeous! I proposed to my girlfriend on this trip, and Michelle went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect—she even had a bottle of champagne waiting on us! The views were breathtaking. I will definitely be back, and I would recommend this VRBO to anyone.

Amazing views!!

These views are incredible. It was such a relaxing place to spend the day reading. It was also a great location to go hike. It is a steep drive up though, so SUV is a must.

Excellent View and Cozy

The view from this property was amazing! To be able to disconnect and relax was great. The home is well stocked and had everything you would need to be able to stay and relax the whole time. The kitchen was very spacious and had all necessary cookware. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking at it. I will definitely stay again if the opportunity comes up.

AMAZING PLACE

WE HAVE STAYED AT FOUR VRBOs in CHEROKEE, N. C. THIS PLACE IS THE BEST BY FAR. THE VIEW IS SPECTACULAR. THE HOME IS VERY, VERY NICE. THE BEDROOMS ARE TERRIFIC AND BOTH ENSUITE. THE APPLIANCES ARE MODERN AND WORK WELL. THE HOST IS MICHELLE AND SHE IS EXTREMELY RESPONSIVE ON ALL FORMS OF COMMUNICATION. CAN'T SAY ENOUGH POSITIVE ABOUT THIS VRBO IN CHEROKEE, N.C. 10 PLUS, PLUS!!!!

A wonderful little casita on top of the hill

This beautiful property was everything we were expecting and MORE!!! Michelle replies back within minutes (i am NOT exaggerating) so stay asure whatever you need will be taking care of promptly. My husband, our 10 months old and i had a very relaxing stay at this property. The house was spotless clean and had everything we needed. The stove, sink, cabinets, floors.. everything was very clean. I am clean freak myself so this place did it. It had a homey smell like made it feel very cozy. The beds, covers and sheets were soft, clean and comfortable. And the mountains view is EVERYTHING! The deck has a couple of rocking chairs you could peacefully drink your morning coffee from while listening the birds chirping and contemplating mother nature before your very own eyes. We loved it!!! We’ll be coming back soon.
