The property was absolutely gorgeous not to mention that the communication with the owner was amazing! If you can book this property I would 100% say do it! My only suggestion is have a 4wheel drive vehicle....Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Very clean the host think of everything right down to Ziploc bags. The bed was super comfy. If I was to recommend anything for this place, it would be a different couch due to having back issues.

Take a break and come and relax.
We totally enjoyed our down time at this perfect get away property. The yurt is relaxing, clean and very cute. The wrap around porch is perfect with a cup of coffee in the morning listening to the birds or enjoying an evening in front of the fire ring. This is our 3rd time staying and enjoying Carson’s retreat. He is quick to respond and very helpful.

Great Romantic Getaway
Great place for a couple! Spotless. Everything you needed was there. It is in an area with several tiny homes around. We were the only ones there so it was very private. It would not be as private if those other places were rented. But it's still a great place! The area is beautiful! I would definitely stay again!

lovely stay
The yurt is a unique property in a beautiful area. We enjoyed the wrap-around deck. It was very well stocked with everything we needed, and the property manager answered questions quickly. It is in a great location for fishing the Nantahala.
