The deck by the river was great, early mornings drinking coffee while watching 2 eagles sitting in a dead tree across the river take flight down the river looking for food. Kitchen was adequate, refrigerator small, but did the job for drinks and breakfast items.Comfortable stay for our trip to Bryson City to ride the trains, go to Clingman's Dome, and see the elk for a quick vacation.

Overall our stay was wonderful. Very clean little cabin with an amazing view of the river. Had a few things that I messaged the owner about, like toilet seat slipping, kitchen light out and the storm doors lock got stuck when we locked it. Besides that everything was great and we would definitely go again.

The place smells. Take a candle to help. The shower curtain has mildew on it. The bit of yard it has needs to be mowed. The bed was very comfortable. I would not stay here again.

We stayed 4 nights in this property. Over all it served our purpose well. My over all complaint was the old recliner needs replaced with something newer. But property was clean and very usable for our purpose. We will stay again

A good stay

The cabin was magnificent and clean. Fully stocked. Not sure how it sleeps 6 as there was 1 queen bed in a bedroom, and a matress in a hot loft for children? Views and location is great for Bryson city, Cherokee and surrounding areas. The deck with the River was magnificent. Stunning. Communication was good except after stay. There hasn't been any since. No thank you. No refund on cleaning dispite leaving the cabin clean. Not sure what is going on afterwards. The location of the cabin is in a campground with other similar cabins/tiny homes units in very close proximity to the cabin. The other half of the campground is RV park,moderately upkept.

Honeymoon

This place was immaculate. What a sweet little spot to stay in. Enjoy the ability to fish off the back porch and the location close to Town and the train was a wonderful stay. We enjoyed our nights there. Can’t wait to come back and stay again. Hope to be able to get this place again. It was just a wonderful little tiny cabin ride on the water and we loved it

Weekend away

My fiancée and I were looking for an affordable escape from the city, and this cabin was exactly what we needed. While we initially hoped it would be a bit more tucked away in the woods, it was incredibly peaceful—and being right on the water was such a treat! The cabin was clean, cozy, and relaxing, and the host was super communicative throughout our stay.

Perfect little creek side tiny house cabin for a Polar Express visit in Bryson City. ONLY 5 Minutes from the train station. Wonderful little porch where you can see and hear the train travel through several times a day. This was a girl’s trip and there was plenty of room for the three of us. Did not cook using the stove but used microwave for quick eats. Little coffee maker was great. Compact fridge was perfect for a couple day stay. Heat gets SUPER HOT but feels great with a cracked window. SUPER COMMUNICATION from host!
