Beautiful home. So convenient to everything. Enjoyed doing nothing. Watching the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad go by each day. The sound of the river cascading over the trucks below was tranquil. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was divine. Large with everything you needed. Only downfall was the jets on both Whirlpool baths weren’t operational. Would like to have known about that ahead of time. It is a wonderful place to stay. Lots of character and room.

The house on the inside was great. Everything was clean and well kept. The house on the outside was disappointing. The outside was so dirty and covered in dirt and algae that you couldn’t really sit or use anything. The picnic table was broken and the hammock was green with algae. Everything needed a good cleaning. The ticks are really bad this year so the plant overgrowth around the house made the tick issue even worse. We loved the view from the house and the creek was amazing. It was nice that the house was so close to town and so many amenities. Overall a great stay just wish we were able to use the outside area more.

Fantastic place to stay! Plenty of room for our family (us, grandparents, and older kids), an absolutely beautiful setting, and a great value. We spent almost as much time enjoying the balcony and the creek as we did sightseeing. Very serene and quiet, but not far from conveniences and activities. Check-in was super easy and there were lots of little extras in the kitchen, bathrooms, etc. We would stay here again, no question.

I was absolutely impressed with everything. To being my email was acting wonky and wasn’t getting email with check in instructions, host contacted me . She was wonderful , helpful and informative. The home was clean and well maintained. Great location Host is extremely friendly and helpful, didn’t seem to get irritated with my silly questions. We come to town at least once a year for a family visit and intend on staying here every trip .
