This was the best get away for us. I love sitting by a creek and listening to the water flow. Very quiet and peaceful but close enough to Dillsboro and the Great Smokey Mountains.

Aimee was very quick to answer questions. The cabin is on a beautiful piece of property with a relaxing creek running next to it. We got to enjoy the wood burning fire outside next to creek one night before the rain came in. The cabin was fully equipped to cook all our meals and drinks. Both bathrooms were outside of bedrooms making it easier for any guest to use. Really enjoyed the location, was able to travel to Mingo Falls for a quick hike, got to see the elk, went shopping and eating. Then came back to cabin to get ready for concert at casino all in one day. It was a Great Weekend trip!

Nice place but there was no soap to shower with and the water in both showers was lukewarm due to what I think is a scaldguard setting way too low.There was coffee but I don't know if it was left by a previous renter. However, there was no sugar or creamer.

Property was absolutely breathtaking. Only complaint was the outdoor fire pit on the deck was out of propane so we didn’t get to enjoy it but there was plenty of other things to do and enjoy.
