This property is right next to the casino. The home was cute and charming. It was a respite from the overstimulating casino next door. Has all the essentials that you need. The drive way is paved and enough space at the top to turnaround if only one vehicle is there. That’s better than most mountain homes. The hydrangeas alone deserve 5 stars! 🤩
This adorable rental is conveniently located to the casino but has a quaint private feel. Meticulously cleaned. Very comfortable beds. Covered back porch with outdoor seating perfect for morning coffee or evening card games. 100% would book again!

The house was absolutely adorable! It was completely spotless as well! The listing was accurate and the house is very conveniently located.We loved our stay!
It was a nice and convenient location. We had a problem with water heater on a Sunday, the day after arrival, and didn’t realize when we arrived at night that it was a problem. It was a little bit of a challenge to get a hold of someone, but it was taken care of within a day. The beds have a lot to be desired. We typically stay at the resort. So it’s a toss up between having space and a kitchen or comfortable bed. There were established spider webs on the porch, and furniture, so we never got to sit there. For the price, I did expect better.

Reviewer Comments:
The house is located near the casino. There are grocery stores and restaurants close. The driveway is steep with a flat parking area.The furniture in the living room is worn out and rickety. The bathrooms are updated. The bed was comfortable. Cabinet doors are loose and could use a visit from a handyman. Bar stools are too high to actually sit at the counter.Overall we enjoyed the location.Its a quiet and peaceful area.

I am not sure when the owners last visited the cabin. It is in need of a deep clean. Baseboards , trim are dirty. The shower curtains and liners are too long and drag into the tub and floor. Liners were mildewed and the bottom of the shower curtain gets wet. Tubs did not feel clean. Bathing was not a clean feeling experience. Sofa and mattresses need to be replaced... very little support sitting or sleeping.
Beautiful little place… loved the grill we used it several times and it had everything we needed.. Actually so close to everything but quiet! We will definitely use them again!!
