Beyond what we expected!!!!

My husband and I honey-mooned on Settlers Mountain in "the cabin". Was the best experience ever! The cabin was amazing, the grounds were beautiful and the town was perfect! We can't wait to celebrate our next anniversary there, and try a different cabin on each visit! The Kraft family has created a reasonable, clean, homey, cozy, amazing experience and we can't wait to return!

Half week stay

The cabin was wonderful. It's quiet and easy to find. The rental is pet friendly for my furry baby. The recreation and laundry was in the building right next door and there was a fire pit and grills for use.

Mini vacay

Was an amazing getaway!!! We absolutely fell in LOVE with this cabin❤️. Was so over the top impressed across the board. Was extremely clean, well stocked with everything needed for our stay. The bathroom was clean and stocked with nice plush towels, a biggie for me!!! The bed was relatively comfortable for being in a rental. The location was perfect. Tucked away but only minutes away from everything you needed, shopping, grocery store, restaurants and site seeing. Other rentals weren’t too close so it gave you privacy, which was fantastic. We so enjoyed the fire pit as well. Even though we brought our own wood, we loved knowing that we had the option to purchase on site. I would definitely recommend it hands down. We will definitely be coming back for sure. Can’t say thank you enough for sharing this awesome, quant, cabin with people to rent. Really brings the whole mountain experience full circle.

Best Cabin Ever!

My husband, niece, and I immensely enjoyed our stay at your beautiful, rustic cabin! The lush, secluded location was magical. We watched fireflies after dark and hummingbirds greeted us as we came and went throughout the day. You literally thought of everything! The antiques, fireplace, and comfortable furniture added to the cabin's coziness. We truly felt that we had traveled back in time! Can't wait for a future visit!

Mini vacay!!!

Was the PERFECT mini getaway over the Memorial Day holiday!! Log cabin was amazing. Exceeded well beyond expectations. Was extremely clean with every thing needed for a very comfortable , relaxing get away. Minutes away from grocery store and town. Loved the quiet location and privacy. Bed was quite comfortable. Had plenty of sitting areas in the living room with a beautiful stone fireplace. Kitchen was nicely equipped with the basics. Had nice thick towels stocked in the very clean bathroom which is huge for me. Loved sitting on the porch in a rocker and just simply taking in all of the beauty and sounds of gods beauty. Hummingbirds will fly in to a feeder that was right within your reach. That’s was fantastic. Having a camp fire each night was a huge highlight to our getaway. Only wish it was closer to cabin and didn’t have to climb a hill to get to it. But, certainly it’s NOT a deal breaker by no means. Only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer!!!! Thank you settlers mountain for an AMAZING, RELAXING and FANTASTIC get away. Definitely will be back. We fell in love with this place❤️.

35th anniversary

The cabin was located on a beautiful piece of property secluded in the woods just a few miles from Bryson City. Saw deer on the property. Had an issue and the owner was quick to respond to the issue. There are 4 other homes available to rent on Settler’s Mountain, we will be back with family and stay at the one on top of the mountain.
