Cozy cabin that the owners have really offered you everything you need to enjoy your stay. Very much off beaten path if going to stay recommend make all your plans to enjoy cabin and walking down to water which FYI is a good hike for anyone and also not planning on leaving once you arrive long ways in and out.
Quiet, peaceful and serene. The calming rush of the river below, which is constantly heard, is soothing and relaxing. Though neighbors are a distance away, you still feel isolated. Wildlife all around, with great walks right from the door. I highly recommend.

My boyfriend and I had decided that we wanted to start going to a different state every year for vacation. This was our first vacation together and it couldn’t be more prefect! The host are extremely kind and understanding, they give only the best to their guests to insure an unforgettable experience. The drive up was beautiful, and the cabin and surrounding areas was more breathtaking than the pictures this listing shows. The cabin is so cozy and they supply all the essentials for the stay. You can easily hike to a beautiful lake and up the mountains to the ridge. This stay will always hold a close place in our hearts and we would recommend booking with these lovely host to anyone!

Awww. We are so happy y'all chose to stay with us. We are blessed to have met you two. If you find yourself back in Tennessee come see us!! Safe travels on life's adventures!
The information being listed about the property is nothing like described. Not to mention the property owners have to drive you to the top of this mountain. There is no road at all. My husband has a 60,000 vehicle that is 4x4 and we couldn't make it up it. The trees were so close together it took us 4 ever to get turned around. Not to mention we get there at 3:30 a.m. and the whole situation was Weird. I had a bad vibe about it. I lost over $300 and still had to rent a motel room for 4 days. Our dates was dec.28 -jan1..

It is unfortunate that you were unable to arrive at an appropriate checkin time. 3:30am is dark and hard to see the road that hundreds of other guests have had no problem navigating. We live a few miles away and could have guided you up had you communicated with us. We offered for you to come back and take a look during the daytime but you declined. It's unfortunate because you would have seen that you would have had no problem getting to your cabin! We hate you guys missed out on an experience that hundreds of others rate at 5* across many booking platforms. Hope that you had a great trip otherwise and enjoyed your time in the area.
Host were amazing with communication. We had everything we needed. You must have a 4 wheel drive to get to the property but once you get there it’s worth it. The outhouse could have been a little closer but it wasn’t horrible. We will definitely come back when it gets a little
My boyfriend and I just wanted a weekend away and this was perfect. The drive to the property is beautiful, the hiking was great, and the campsites were beautiful and well maintained. The hosts we’re very attentive and super kind. We would definitely go back!!
I loved the property and location. It was so peaceful and very private. Hosts were welcoming and helpful! At night, the fireflies and stars were breathtaking! The safari park close to the site was super fun!!! 10/10
Anthony and Kristin were so friendly. Very accommodating. Place was super clean and very peaceful. For first time glamping we had an amazing trip. Everything was provided for comfort and enjoyment. We will be back. Love hearing the birds sing.

This was the perfect trip for my boyfriend and I! Kristin and Anthony are amazing hosts and have seriously thought of everything you could possibly need!! They exceeded our expectations and we have already booked to come back next month!! The trails are gorgeous, quiet, secluded, and off grid. What else could you ask for??
This was a great little getaway that getting to was an adventure in itself! Loved getting a little off grid and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Anyone that wants to get out into nature and away from it all for a little while will have a great time here.

Everything was unique about the property. Just getting there an awesome adventure in itself. I had to call them very late in the night and they were still their very very friendly selves. And it wasn't a problem at all
