Such a beautiful and relaxing cabin that was actually larger than what we expected from the photos. Comfortable, uncluttered accommodations with thoughtful guest provisions. As stated, the water is a bit interesting but that’s explained well. Don’t know why the beds are so comfortable but we all slept great.Coziest cabin ever- highly recommend!

The Cabin is located in a very private area on a lovely stream, yet it is close to many town options and hiking options. The cabin came supplied with a little more than normally supplied by rentals and the guidebook was packed with information. We enjoyed a nice meal out in Hayesville and Brasstown, both less than 20 minute drives. A camp fire, stream side, made for a perfect night cap to active days. Understand this is a cabin in the mountains, not a house in a wooded neighborhood, and you will love it.

Hurry! You’ll want to stay here for sure! They thought of every.thing.. Seriously, it’s so peaceful, comfortable furnishings, wildlife, fishing, gas stove () and that creek, though…... It really is 5 stars and more! Games, tv, firepit, firewood, and the list goes on. So hard for us to leave this morning! It’s about 6 miles from town which is just about perfect. I contacted Meghan once for a minor thing and she responded quickly. We are planning our next trip to Hayesville soon! Hayesville is a precious little town, as is Murphy. Lots of hiking trails or even just a greenway for a great walk. Obviously we are sold on this area :)

A great week in the mountains. The cabin is beautiful. We stayed here once before 5 or 6 years ago and it was as great as we remembered. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The best day was when we just hung out at the cabin and sat by the creek and enjoyed the sun.

Must beautiful and relaxing place

This place was so relaxing. We were there for 5 days and our kids had so much fun. The kitchen has all the equipment you need to make meals (just need to bring the groceries). We will definitely be coming back. Everything was so lovely. We really enjoy it.

The perfect getaway

Where do I start? Comfortable and cozy cabin with all of the things you expect and lots that you don’t. Eg the fridge was stocked with some soft drink options, staples were stocked in the pantry, small goods also in the fridge. Laundry was well stocked and there was plenty of towels. The creek was running high and we caught a few fish right in front of the property. really like a home away from home. Thanks to the owners for being such warm and gracious hosts.. we will be back !!

Great location

Cabin sits right on Fires Creek, which is a stocked trout stream. If you like the sound of a babbling brook, this is the place. However, it rained 3 days and so the fishing wasn't very good. Nonetheless, the location is very scenic, close enough to town and close to the WMA. But when we checked in, we were surprised that the fireplace and refrigerator were in need of cleaning. We had to clean the frig but left the FP as we found it. Also, several light bulbs are in need of replacing. Outer door knob on downstairs bathroom does not actuate the latch...so don't close the door without someone in the bathroom. Objects on upper shelf in kitchen have collected a thick layer of dust. In short, this is a great cabin that can be made even better with a good spring cleaning.

Quiet and secluded cabin with plenty of room for our family of five. Terrific location next to a running creek with plenty of privacy but not too far from an Ingles grocery store and excellent local restaurants and church.VERY GLAD we chose this property. You should choose it too!

A wonderful, cozy cabin at a perfect location

Very well equipped, cozy and enchanting cabin. The location couldn't be better and it's convenient to everything we wanted to do. The flowing water sound from the creek is so relaxing and the wood fireplace tops it all. Wish we could have stayed longer, but we'll be back next year.

Peaceful Retreat

This delightful cabin was just as pictured, but what the pictures can't convey is how the surroundings wrap you like a blanket. We basked in the warmth by the fire both inside and out to the music of the creek. We did encounter some problems with maid service, which either hadn't come or hadn't finished the job, but the owner of the cabin responded promptly to our message and took steps to make things right. Be prepared to bring some window coverings if you like extra privacy or light filtering for the upstairs bedroom and bathroom.

Cabin serenity

Such a beautiful property. Very challenging to find at night. We actually were trying to get into the wrong house. Oops!! Poorly marked. The rushing river is literally right outside the door and adds a backdrop of constant sound and beauty. It is very off the beaten path and no town nearby which is what we wanted. Peaceful solitude. Lots of steps and slippery terrain so be prepared for that. Would not recommend for anyone with any mobility concerns. Beautiful natural setting. No supplies such as coffee or paper towels so come prepared. No store nearby!

A special place

When we packed and left for our vacation to Haysville, we had no idea Category 4 Hurricane Ida would hit our home in Louisiana. This cabin was so peaceful and secluded, just the distraction we needed to ride out the storm raging at home. My boys STAYED in the creek. They played till the sun went down. The windows are incredible. I loved watching them play while I cooked! The rooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. Go check out Leatherwood falls, only a couple miles from the cabin. As we head back to rebuild our home, we have a lot of peace in our hearts. A lot of that is due to this great place. Thank you for a wonderful stay! We'll be back
