Nice Property - Quiet Stay - 5 Stars

We enjoyed our short stay in Robbinsville at this clean, well-provisioned property. The view from the porch is nice and the creek behind the house was larger than expected. It is very quiet at night. The host worked closely with us to handle a special request and communications were excellent. We are looking forward to staying here again.

It was a pleasure to have you and your party at our beloved Carolina Joy House. Looking forward to hosting you again! November is that time of the year when ladybugs make an appearance in the area. They are innocent insects though… Thank you for choosing our property!

So Serene!

This is the perfect place to get away and reset! The property is only 6 minutes from town, but has the most relaxing setting! It was perfect for two couples and our pup. We loved watching the sheep grazing in the distance every morning, and the creek that winds through the backyard just adds to the ambience. Rosie has many thoughtful touches throughout the home and made us feel very comfortable during our stay. I highly recommend this adorable property!

Motorcycle Friendly

This place was absolutely perfect. We came to ride the Tail of the Dragon. It was motorcycle friendly. The gravel driveway wasn’t bad since the gravel was packed down. Enough room for our truck and trailer. It is right beside Cherohala Skyway and about 20 mins from the Dragon. It was super clean and cozy. Also a plus that it was pet friendly. We definitely would stay here again. If there was a hot tub it would be even better.

Clean, quiet and relaxing

Rosie is a thoughtful host, everything we could have needed was available to us. The house is layed out nicely and Rosie makes the best use of the space. The temperature outside was colder than we expected so we couldn't enjoy the outside areas. Hope to stay when we visit Robbinsville again.
