We had a great stay!! The house was beautiful and we loved the one floor layout. The place was well-stocked and the hosts were very responsive and welcoming. We encountered an issue with the water and they were prompt to address it and gave us a partial refund. We loved the hot tub and outdoor space and the views! Would definitely recommend and we plan on coming back!

My 91 year old mama, my dog and I recently spent 5 nights here and I can't wait to visit again.. the house itself is so welcoming and on the top of the mountain... the moon.. oh the moon... and we experienced a spectacular sunrise as well... the house is so clean and well equipped.. you have everything you need at your fingertips... games, books, magazines and the coziest living room!! The fireplace was super easy.... we watched The Mask on the huge big screen.. my mom had never seen it...i enjoyed the jacuzzi several times... the outside firepit was maybe our favorite.. we laughed and ate smores... everything super clean and so very easy..... if you need to really relax and if you love excellent customer service this place is for you. I have been in hotel industry for 40 years. This place gets it right! Well done.

The house and kitchen had everything needed for a 5-star stay. Any item I needed for cooking was in the kitchen. The owner had thoughtfully equipped it. The very clean home fit our needs perfectly; the large primary bedroom and bath and closet as well as a guest room and bath worked for us. We enjoyed the quiet surroundings and the view of the mountain from the covered patio. It was located well for what we enjoyed this trip - wandering from town to town on mountain roads and boating on Fontana Lake. The owner has done a superb job of preparing the home for guests!

Nanta-Haven is a beautiful property, exactly as described and shown in the photographs. It was everything I was looking for and did not disappoint! Our party was older adults in the mountains for a birthday get-away. We needed a place all on one level and and with limited steps (difficult to find in the mountains) for my 93 year old MIL.The house was extremely clean, well-stocked with amenities and comfortable beds. We spent much of our time outside having meals and enjoying the fire-pit. The hot tub was amazing and because it is under cover, we were able to use it while it rained.Our host was attentive and communication was so easy. I received all the information I needed in a timely manner and particularly loved being able to download the guest booklet with information, maps, and ideas. Bryson City is a quaint town and the national park is very close. There is more to do in the area than you'll have time for!Don't worry about the road. It's a typical mountain road, paved until the gravel drive, and we did not have any difficulty in our large SUV. The community is quiet (you don't see or hear any neighbors) and the view is spectacular. We were sad to leave and plan to be back sometime in the future. I've stayed in several rentals in the area and this one is by far and away my favorite!

Beautiful property in a stunning location, central to everything. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the hot tub was perfect for relaxing. Our favorite feature was the black out curtains, we haven’t slept in that late in a long time! Ready to conquer the next work week feeling refreshed and reenergized from a fabulous vacay! 100/10 recommend this property!

Peaceful Retreat in a Beautiful Home
This was an amazing vacation. The home was absolutely beautiful—clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with comfort in mind. It provided the perfect opportunity to unplug and truly focus on what matters most.The location was wonderfully secluded—we never heard a neighbor, which made the experience feel even more peaceful and private. At the same time, we were just a short drive from everything we wanted to do, making it the perfect balance of quiet relaxation and convenient access to activities.We’re so grateful to the host for providing such a special space, and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommend!

If I could give it 100 STARS..I would!!
This home is in a secluded, gorgeous mountain location.. no visible neighbors anywhere.. perfect! When you pull up, it's gorgeous.. then you go inside ( easiest access I've ever had on VRBO) and realize it's more beautiful than the outside! The furnishings, the decor, the AMAZINGLY FULLY STOCKED KITCHEN (won over my SIL and daughter who LIVE to cook) and the attention to EVERY detail.. OUTSTANDING!! The hosts were informative (loved the digital guide book) and truly caring about their guests having the best stay possible. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Nanta Haven to friends, family, anyone looking for a place that feels like home in EVERY way. Thank you!!

Paradise with no interruption!
Nantahaven was amazing! Picturesque, delightfully remote. The views were breathtaking, the hot tub was serenely soothing! I might only make it a 4.9 stars for two things, the wifi wasnt strong due to being remote (so not entirely surprising) and the mosquitoes were relentless. Not problems with the property per se, just things for visitors to be aware of.

Family spring break vacation
We arrived pretty late in the evening after a long drive from Florida and couldn’t fully appreciate the view until the next morning. The view is simply spectacular! The cabin was clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing week in the mountains. We had an issue with an appliance and the owners went above and beyond to make it right! This is how you own and manage vacation rentals! You cannot go wrong with this rental. We will definitely book it again for our next visit to the smokies!! 10 stars!!
