Very private, had a bit of a problem with the fireplace and washer filling up due to shared well. The cleanliness was not to my standards but liveable. The drive is a roller coaster ride. But the view is extraordinary and the staff very attentive, to all our needs.

The house is great. Awesome views and close to downtown Bryson City. I feel the listing should specify that use of the garage is not included and that listing it as motorcycle friendly should not be apart of the listing.I rented for those reasons. Getting into the drive way (gravel)on a motorcycle is very difficult. 50 degree incline from a road with debris and wash out left us with about 5,000.00 in damages to 2 fully dressed baggers. I do not recommend coming or going the property at night on a motorcycle . The 2 bikes that went down had female passengers that were thrown off ,thankfully not badly injured. Going down the driveway is also challenging. Not trying to bash anybody but the listing should be clearer with a warning for bikes.

Beautiful location, wonderful deck!

Fantastic location, super close to town and GSMNP. It is on a somewhat busy road, and the traffic is just frequent enough to remind you of that, but it's not bad. Beautiful deck and view. Main level is perfect for the elderly. The driveway is tricky, steep and a bit intimidating, but I had studied Google Maps and these reviews. Beds were fine. Very well stocked. Washer and dryer are aged and need some attention to make sure dryer is drying. Would definitely stay again.

Great location!

Beautiful property to stay at. We enjoyed Going to “The Road to Nowhere” and Deep Creek tubing. Everything we wanted to do was within a 20 minute drive. The driveway is very steep to get up, but we adapted to it quickly. The view from the porch is spectacular.

Overall this was a nice place to stay. Amenities were nice. The inside was clean and had everything needed for our stay. The outside of the property needs a little TLC and upgrades. We would stay there again if we were planning another trip to the area.

Weekend Getaway

Overall the property was nice. Great open space and the fireplace was a hit. Beautiful view BUT THE getting up there was a challenge. The hot tub was a bonus but probably should put up some sorta gate around the edge of the area...in the dark you could take a serious tumble down a giant hill. Showers were less than desirable; the master shower was like a shoe box and the downstairs shower head was almost not useable. Beautiful home just keep up with the maintenance.

It is a beautiful home. We loved the view. The dishwasher leaked pretty bad. There were only 2-3 dish towels and no pot holders. Other than that, we loved it and would recommend it to others for sure.

Best Vacation Ever

The home was clean, the neighborhood was so quiet I didn't know there were other properties near until we were leaving. Everything we needed was in the home. The directions were spot on, and the home had an amazing charm. My first time using VRBO so I called the rental company for clarification and they actually answered the phone, my questions, and I will use again. Thank you!

Beautiful house, minor improvements needed

Older reviews are accurate, dishwasher did leak a little, basement door locks do not work but block stick was in use to assist, basement shower had low water pressure when using hot water and internet did not work. However, the house was beautiful, very roomy for my husband and I and 2 teenage girls. Kitchen was great for our dinners. Location was great for visiting many of the surrounding areas, all within an hour of TN, Asheville, etc.

Overall disappointed

Basement bedrooms didn’t lock (bar for security) insufficient. Living room door handle fell off multiple times. No directions on how to dispose of trash ourselves, only option to pay an additional fee. Dishwasher didn’t work. Poor water pressure. Location was great but for the price of this rental it definitely needed attention. Our family would not rent again.

Birthday Trip

Went here for my birthday and everything that I wanted I got. Views are great right in the mountain and on the road to no where. Will say driveway very steep but that's what you get for a house on a mountain. Did hear the school that is right down the road but nothing to bad, not like it woke me up just when sitting out on the balcony enjoying the view and my morning tea.

Overall a great stay

Initially they failed to send me the check in details, but after a quick call I got it, and we were unable to access the wifi at any point. Overall, they stay was quite peaceful and nice. It is near a fairly busy road, so it is not a perfect nature getaway. Other than that, everything was as advertised and a great time.
