Great stay, highly recommend. Cabin was super clean and smelled fresh. As others have noted, everything you need is there. Even had a handy, cordless blower to keep the outside tidied up. The new Starlink system was a nice touch for internet and phone connectivity when needed. Host was always available for questions and tips.

Location was ideal for our motorcycle trip. House is situated directly on top of the NC entrance to the Tail of the Dragon! Views from the drive up are gorgeous. The drive up the shared community road can be tough for vehicles towing large trailers, it is best to check in while there is still daylight to navigate the windy road up. We had a great time and would love to stay again!

Tail of the Dragon

Check-in process was seamless, The house was clean, and all procedures to follow were clearly stated, from trash disposal to last-day exit instructions. The location was ideal for anyone visiting the Tail of the Dragon, right at the end (or beginning, depending on the direction from which you were traveling) of the Dragon.

Another great stay at the Dragon!

We had another great stay at James's property. This is the second year in a row that we stayed at this location and it felt like home. It is always very well taken care of and you can't beat the location for having fun on the Dragon and the surrounding area roads. I would highly recommend this property - you will not be disappointed. We look forward to staying here again next year!

**5 Stars – Perfect Mountain Getaway!**We absolutely loved our stay at this mountain cabin in Deals Gap! The cabin was incredibly well-equipped — everything you could possibly need was provided (just bring your own groceries). The decor was cozy, thoughtful, and added so much charm to the experience.The location couldn’t be better, especially if you're planning to ride the Tail of the Dragon — it’s right there at your doorstep. After long days of riding, it was the perfect place to unwind and relax. Peaceful, comfortable, and exactly what we were looking for.Highly recommend for anyone looking for a basecamp to explore the area or just enjoy a quiet mountain escape!

Cozy cabin in great location

Super easy check in and access. Great communication and fast response with owner when we had a question. Location was perfect for our hike up to Shuckstack Fire Tower. Internet has recently been upgraded which was nice although we tried to stay disconnected. Would recommend!

awesome stay with a few hiccups!

the owners couldn't be nicer, the property was amazing, the view is stunning, but be prepared if you loose power or if something goes wrong as you will have no contact/service with the outside world (sometimes a good thing lol). just a head up to future tenants, the killboy shead and deals gap resort has internet if you need it down the road.

Tree house

Great host communication. Location is right at the start of the TOTD. Interior was immaculate and updated. Outside is a bit long in the tooth. Driveway is worth walking first before taking bikes up; steep with a couple of potholes/washouts to navigate. Backing out down the hill merits caution but fine with a bit of planning. Great location for a start to an amazing ride!

Will Definitely come back!!

This was my first time to the dragon. So i had the best trip I did with my bestie. The house was beautiful, clean, had very soft beds, and had I home feeling. Not to mention it right there at Deals Gap. My bestie and I had discussed that we will definitely want to come back. It was like being a kid again staying the night, riding bikes and staying up watching movies. But The only downfall we had was the power went out but it was restored less than 24 hours. They was very communicative and descriptive. Thank you for that epic adventure we had in your home. We wish to come back in the future.
