I was sad to leave and already want to go back. Beautiful cabin and the location could not be better for anyone who wants peace and quiet along a beautiful stream. We used it as a base camp for trout fishing, mostly in Joyce Kilmer and other parts of Nantahala NF. Hosts are excellent communicators and easy to work with.

Cozy cabin deep in the holler of Yellow Creek. No cell service and no WiFi. A peaceful place to unwind and relax. This cabin is well equipped, clean, and comfortable. It was a little tricky to find, as it’s off the beaten path. Prepare in advance and map it out before you lose cell service :)

Lovely, peaceful location. Convenient to lots of hiking areas. Multiple seating options along the creek are a nice touch. Christmas tree was a welcome surprise. Comfortable bed, hooray! Everything was clean. The forest is beautiful and I imagine this is a spectacular place in spring.

Perfect Get Away

One of the best vacations in the NC mountains yet. Secluded, but just a short drive to Bryson City and Cherokee. The creek running beside the cabin was so peaceful. It was a nice place to get away and unwind.

Perfect Quiet Retreat

This was EXACTLY what our family needed. Cabin was beautiful inside and the location next to the creek was perfect. Location was really ideal as a central starting point for exploring numerous waterfalls, trails, lakes, and just gorgeous scenery. Being disconnected from internet, phones, work, etc. was such a blessing. We will definitely be back!

This is a wonderful small cabin with a creek running next to it. My wife and I had a very relaxing stay. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen is well furnished with all the amenities to cook a meal. The creek offers natural beauty and a relaxing sound if the out doors. I have already recommended this cabin to friends. Would book here again. Todd

Birthday getaway

We celebrated two family birthdays with fly fishing in the creek and sitting on the porch rocking and listening to the soothing sounds of Yellow Creek. All four of us are in our seventies and this was the perfect setting for recharging.

Yellow Creek Cabin !!!

This was our second stay at the Yellow Creek Cabin. The location is absolutely beautiful and well maintained. Whether relaxing on the porch overlooking Yellow Creek or walking around the yard, the views are breathtaking.The cabin was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a fun family vacation. The location is convenient to many outdoor activities, hiking, tubing, whitewater rafting, etc. We look forward to returning again in the future. Thank You Payton and Laura for sharing your cabin with us.

Fantastic getaway

This property was fantastic For us it was a perfect way to get away from technology enjoy the time as a family. Be advised however if you have a cell phone it probably will have zero service we had two different providers Verizon and AT&t. But that was fine for us at gave us a chance to get away from it all for a while. All in all I give this property of five star!!
