Great clean little cabin on the creek. Very pleasant sitting on the back porch in the mornings. Only drawback is that it is on a busy road and a little noisy at times.

Perfect cabin for our getaway weekend!

We came to Cherokee as an "Adult Getaway" for a weekend. I must say this cabin is so adorable. It is walking distance to shops and restaurants. I loved how cozy the cabin feels. I will be staying here again soon.

Cozy cabin in Cherokee

We had a wonderful stay at cabin 6. Very cozy and appealing. The cabin was well equipped and very clean. It looks just like the pictures. The location was excellent and we enjoyed the view from the deck. We wholeheartedly recommend it.

Everything went without any problems. The deck/porch was wonderful. We saw numerous types of birds, elk and river otter just relaxing in the porch rockers.

The A/C didn't keep the bedroom on the bottom floor cool and I wished we would had a ceiling fan at least. Overall it was fine.

Thank you for your feedback on the temperature of the downstairs bedroom. We will look into adding a ceiling fan to make that room more comfortable.

Cherokee Trip

The house was quaint, which was fine. The biggest issue was the traffic, and with the house being on a slight curve with a blind spot too, backing out onto the road was a little scary

Short stay

This was a cute little cabin by the river. We chose it because of the proximity to Bryson City because we were going to the Polar Express. We ended up cutting our stay short because of a sick child. The owner was so friendly and accommodating. The cabin was cute and clean. Had the weather been warmer, I would have loved to sit on the porch overlooking the creek.
