Family trip

It was a very nice place to stay with our family on a little fishing trip get away, the neighbors were great, and it's far enough away for peace and quiet and close enough to town to enjoy everything Cherokee has to offer, communication with hosts was also great!

We loved the cabin and its location! There was a small issue with the fireplace; the hosts were very attentive and the issue was resolved quickly. The hosts allow pets so we brought our dog and had a wonderful visit.

Had a great stay!

This was my second vacation stay to this property, and for a good reason..I was never disappointed! I loved the view, the scenery, the cabin had everything we needed, and it was neat and clean. Nice balcony and a fire pit for late night relaxation..and it’s not far from the main sites of the Smokey Mountains! I will definitely be back again!
