Excellent place. Road to house is one lane gravel/dirt but easy to navigate. Just SLOW DOWN. Never ran across any vehicles coming from other direction but that could get dicey. And night driving may be a bear. But we enjoyed the location. Only caught one trout but had a great time. Highly recommend.

We had a nice stay. The views were beautiful and the Tuck was awesome as always. The house was what we expected from the pictures. I had read the reviews about the road but it was more challenging than we had anticipated. We enjoyed meeting the neighbor and of course the neighborhood dog. She was very sweet and very friendly.

The cabin is nice and right by the water. Loved the river access. The only problem was the neighbors dog which was sweet and very friendly to kids and my dog which I paid 150 to bring. I also kept my dog crated when we went anywhere ( she weighs 6 pounds) but when we returned from town I stepped in a big pile of fresh dog crap! We also had to keep shoes on children because apparently dogs that live around there use the parking area and around the deck for a potty. I picked up after my dog but it seems I was the only one. Other than that we enjoyed the beautiful river and watching the birds.

2nd stay

We absolutely love this cabin! I love the little touches of soaps and shampoo, just in case we forgot, which we did! The next-door neighbor has two cats and a dog that adopt you when you come to stay in their wonderful source of enjoyment! Having access to the river Was so much fun, especially for my boys who love to explore nature.

Too cold for comfort

The cabin was nice. The heating unit would not heat well so we only stayed one of the 3 nights we booked. Also, the long trail getting to the cabin was hazardous which was NOT mentioned in the ad. In fact there is a sign posted at the beginning of the driveway that says “enter at your own risk”.

This was an adorable property close to town! Fair warning, the drive out looks daunting but isn't bad after the first time. No wifi but lots of movies and tv options.

Beautiful home

Stunning home on the river - great stay with beach front river property. The house was very spacious and comfortable to stay in. Very clean and homey! I do wish there were more cleaning supplies available such as a broom and disinfectant since we were in the river all day. Also this house has immediate neighbors which wasn’t preferred. They were very kind people however!

Nice place no problems with the cabin at all. Need to include in your property details of getting there that it is a one lane gravel road, that requires a 4 x 4 or high vehicle so you don’t drag on the road. Also must back up down the narrow road if somebody is coming your way needs to be a 2 lane road and a more visible sign of property number for this unit. The cabin has a hwy across from unit next to river that is very loud, not very quiet as the property details state.

Secluded Escape

Great cabin and very relaxing space. We enjoyed our visit and hope to return. I would only recommend driving a truck or other taller, off-road vehicle to access. The "road" is rather narrow, curvy, and rocky but it's worth it!!!

Quiet location

The location on the river was great and was beautiful. Easy access to fishing from the bank. There is a rafting company that people do use often and they are floating by. The location of the cabin is within an hour of gatlinburg and the nantahala forest. The towns of sylva & dillsboro offer unique restaurants & shops. There were plenty of kitchen gadgets, pots & pans, etc for easy cooking. Just know the last mile or so driving to the cabin is a single lane gravel road.
