Our stay Nick’s House was perfect. The view is beautiful and the sound of the creek was so relaxing. The home was very well stocked and we had everything we needed plus a few extra surprises that was a welcome treat. Two master bedrooms with king beds and bathroom made it perfect for 2 couples. We will definitely be back.
We had a great long weekend at this cabin. Cabin was very clean and well maintained. All you need for the kitchen was there. Great coffee bar. Everything is modern and updated. Phenomenal covered porch with plenty of seating. Best of all a creek is just below the porch and creates a relaxing sound. This place is a 10 for those wanting to relax. The owner was wonderful to work with.

Thank you so much!! Hope we will host yall again!!
2nd time there, this time for 2 weeks and it's a special property. Easy to get to town and to the house from the main road. Sitting outside with a favorite beverage and listening to the creek run is very relaxing. You will enjoy yourself!!!
Everything was wonderful. All amenities with kitchen, bath, bedrooms stocked with plenty essentials. The hosts are very supportive - very pet friendly. The house and grounds are great with fantastic creek view - relaxing. Plenty of parking space. Easy to get to in a mountain area. We look forward to returning.
Gorgeous house and property!! I could sit on the porch and listen to the creek forever. We absolutely loved our time here and are already planning our next stay!
First of all, Debra is such an amazing host and the pinnacle of what someone should strive for. Great communication, fair price, always available, and the house is stocked with everything you could need. It’s a wonderful experience. The property is beautiful and so quiet and relaxing. The big deck is amazing, the sound of the creek is wonderful and the vast area to explore is great! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and already can’t wait to come back. Please book this house if you’re on the fence it’s so worth it. If you just need to rest and recharge you can’t beat it. We will 100% be back. I’m already saving up for the next trip.

Thank you so much for your kind words Matt. Really enjoyed meeting you and your family. I am so grateful you that you had a good time, and we look forward to hosting you again.
Debra has a beautiful place! It is spacious and thoughtfully decorated. Loved the grounds, the stream and the wildlife! Debra was a gracious and attentive hostess and we would love to return next year.
A little slice of heaven. Great Owner and location. First class accomodations and I cannot say enough. Thanks for sharing your beautiful house with the public...
Absolutely amazing stay and host. The house has absolutely everything you need, they really have thought of everything, the master bath even had a heating pad and women's menstrual supplies. My type A heart absolutely loved all the labels all over the house. This is a must rent, you won't be disappointed.
This was a perfect relaxing getaway. From the babbling creek, to the beautiful views, to a large, tastefully decorated house, you couldn’t ask for more. Debra was a very accommodating host. She was responsive and went out of her way to make our stay special. Location is close to several picturesque mountain towns. We will definitely come back to this delightful mountain escape.

Thank you so much! We are so grateful that you have come and stayed with us!!!
Nick’s house is a beautiful property! The location right on cower creek is beautiful. You hear the rushing water from the expansive porch and even in the house. Our dogs really had fun playing in the creek and exploring the property. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing full meals, with beautiful upscale appliances. So many rentals have low budge, uncomfortable beds, but the beds in nicks house are wonderfully comfortable. We slept well every night. You are in close proximity to wonderful activities as well! I can’t recommend this place highly enough.
This property is AMAZING! A slice of heaven- beautiful outside and inside!!! Kitchen was stocked, complimentary coffee pods, and condiments- and Debra left us a dozen of fresh eggs when we checked into the rental! 10 stars out of 10- does not even describe how fabulous this rental is for guests.Debra was wonderful, always helpful, and happy to answer any questions. A very easy check-in and check-out. We absolutely loved our time here- we will be back and hope to rent both of the properties!! Thank you for sharing this beautiful peaceful property with us! Sincerely- The Doering's

Thank you! We enjoyed having you and hope you visit us again 👍 Debra & Richard
Very nice location to unwind and enjoy nature. Overall, just some small improvements would have made this a 5 star rating. The property looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in a while. It wasn't dirty, but dust on counter tops, dirt in soaking tub, the coffee creamers had spoiled and curdled, bed linens were stained, soaking tub leaks onto the bathroom floor. This makes it sound as if this was a bad stay, but not at all. We really enjoyed our visit.

David thank you for your review…
I’m very grateful for the information on the things that I need to adjust and attend to!
I’m really sorry for the things that were not up to a five star rating.
We had just gotten in the bathroom tub finished ( you all were the First guest that got to use the tub) and had not even put any water in it to check for leaks and I will make sure I get that fixed.
I will also have a conversation with my cleaning crew that takes care of the other things on your list that were not up to par!
Thank you again. I strive to have everything in the manner in which I would like to have a place when I rent, I will make sure these things get fixed.
We spent the last 10 days of our summer vacation at Nick’s House.
The home was clean and the amenities and furnishings were high quality. The sheets and linens were high thread count and comfortable.
Wi-Fi signal was strong & constant and TV’s large & easily linked to our streaming services/devices.
The large covered patio/deck draw you outside, to comfortable couches, tables, chairs, and grill. Every day we enjoyed seeing deer, groundhog, and wild turkey.
We reserved our Christmas and 2025 summer trip, as we know this place will be hard to reserve as soon as more people discover this gem.
We recently spent our long 4th of July weekend at Nicks place on Cowee creek. We were looking for a place to beat the Florida heat and were not disappointed at all. The location is picturesque and the sound of the creek was very relaxing. We had some severe weather come through that caused a power outage for the whole area one for a few hours one afternoon but really appreciated the host Debbie checking on us frequently to ensure were were ok and sharing the updates from the power company. It worked out nicely as my kids enjoyed playing in the creek while the adults took some time to be unplugged and rest. The whole experience was wonderful and we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet place to unwind that is also in close proximity to the Nantahala River, Franklin and Bryson City.
