Stunning mountain/ pond view. Peace & Tranquility!

I have to say… we have stayed in Tennessee, North Carolina & Georgia and Ron’s & Anna’s vacation home is by far one of our best stays. The home is very spacious and well equipped….It even has a quiet retreat in the second floor. Ron & Anna are great Host’s. When we needed something taken care of they where there in an instant. They really wanted us to have a hassle free and enjoyable vacation which we did! Thank you. The Rilley’s home is worth visiting. If you enjoy nature like we do, then you will like this home in Tabacco Ranch neighborhood. Close to lake Fontana, the Smokey Mountains, Bryson City & Cherokee. Lots to do here.

Beautiful location

The location was convenient and easy to get to. The house looked just as it did in the pictures. The furniture was a little worn and could need attention but overall, it was a pleasant place to stay.

Mountain retreat

This home was accurately described in the listing. It's a very rustic, charming and clean home with a creek running right under the deck!! We could walk right across the street to fish anytime. The lake is beautiful! The neighborhood was nice and quiet, and a great place for walks. Great place to just stay in and relax on the porch or hot tub, but also minutes away from Bryson City for food, shopping and parks. Multiple options for water activity very close by. We would stay here again!

Enjoyable Home

This home was affordable an offered all amenities as listed. It is conveniently located which allows for a short drive to Lake Fontana, Bryson City and Cherokee. The hot tub was in perfect working condition and was a blessing after a long day of adventures. There was one very small issue, but the owners jumped right on it and resolved the issue immediately. Their expedited response was nice to experience knowing that they truly care about their tenants. I recommend this rental without hesitation!

Great Smokey Getaway

The property was exactly how it was listed, if not better. I wanted to take my husband on a quick getaway. He loves fishing and kayaking. I was looking for a place he could do both and this property was perfect. The house had plenty of room and supplied all the necessities. The house was very tidy and the linens were clean. The house was located right across from a small pond. It was big enough for my husband to jump into his kayak and fish, he even caught a few. I got to enjoy the hot tub. The house is in a quite neighborhood and is about 21 minutes from Bryson City. The drive is not bad at all. The owners, Dan and Anna answered all my questions in a timely manner and even gave suggestions on other locations for fishing. My husband found a boat launch a few miles from the property in Fontana Lake. We really enjoyed staying and can't wait to return with our family and friends.

Peaceful

The cabin was comfortable and roomy. With the lake directly across the road fishing was an easy choice. A large screened porch to relax in after using the hot tub, all surrounded by lush vegetation. Couldn't ask for more. I recommend this cabin. Could easily accomodate a much larger group than mine.
