Beautiful home

We were a group of five senior adults riding our motorcycles. Two couples and a single so the three bedrooms and three bathrooms worked perfectly. Accommodations were great our only issue was the gravel on the hilly driveway. Not Good for Bikers.

Beautiful views

We had a great stay at this cabin. The location. is picturesque with the stunning views, the surrounding area and the drive up to the cabin is beautiful. We’ve stayed at many cabins throughout the years in GA, SC, TN and NC and we love the Waynesville area. The kitchen is well equipped and the game room has lots of board games along with the pool table. The back yard is relatively steep, so just be aware if you bring pets it’s not an area easily accessible to have them roam in the back yard. We walked ours along the road and they were just fine. The phone service worked fine and we had ATT and TMobile - we had less bars in the game room but it worked. There is basic TV service, but be aware it’s limited. There was no local channel coverage so if you’re a football fan, you won’t be able to watch games unless you stream via your laptop with a streaming site and a HDMI cable connected to TV using your phone’s Hot Spot. Hot water worked perfect and we were a party of six. The drive up to the cabin is quite easy. Communication with owner/property manager was great. Great stay overall.

There's no better place to stay and watch the leaves in the Fall or to simply relax in the mountains. The cabin is well situated for day trips to all the mountain attractions.

Beautiful home with amazing views

This lovely log home was the perfect setting for a weeklong mountain vacation with my family! We had all the comforts of home, including comfortable beds, and a well-stocked kitchen. I loved all the different spaces where we could choose to gather or enjoy some alone time. The location is quiet and private, yet convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway, as well as grocery stores and shopping in Waynesville or Sylva. But my favorite feature of this home is the gorgeous mountain view! To experience the beauty of the sunlight throwing color on the mountains and drifting clouds is pure peace.

Majestic View!

My husband, daughter and I had an incredible stay! From checkin through our stay, Cheryl was amazing! The gorgeous views and the tranquility at the cabin were everything we needed for a family getaway! The cabin is close to many trails and a cute little town (Sylva). We had everything we could want to help us enjoy our downtime too (game room, TV). The highlight for me was watching the fog roll in during the evening and enjoying my coffee with the sun highlighting the mountains. We hope to be back again and stay longer! Thank you Cheryl!

mountain bliss

This place is amazing. There are no words to describe the view properly. It is breathtaking. The house is well layed out and the kitchen is well equipped. Plenty of space to spread out. There is also a pool table and plenty of games for a quiet evening at home. The property is very private without neighbors in view. There are plenty of grocery stores. and places to eat nearby. The host Cheryl is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this property.

We loved the cabin. The views were sensational of the mountains . Plenty of privacy and easy to get to. The cabin was really well decorated with all kinds of neat mountain gear and antiques. Very spacious layout and well maintained. Highly recommend this property. Great communication with the property manager. Hope to come back next time we’re up in the Asheville area .

Beautiful view!

We loved our stay at this cabin. The location was perfect-just off the Smoky Mountain Parkway yet very private and peaceful. Extremely close to the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway with its many overlooks and an easy drive to the double waterfall at Soco Falls. We enjoyed our mornings and evenings on the beautiful deck as well as making s’mores in the fire pit. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
