We loved this place. Although all cabins are on the road, we may have seen 5 cars a day drive by. The property is 3 miles up the mountain from the main drag in Cherokee. We felt secluded. The fire pit in the front is fabulous. We could hear roaring Wright's Creek behind the cabin. The cabin was clean and inviting. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen is supplied with a mini frig, a hot plate, coffee maker, blender, toaster, toaster oven, microwave. It is definitely a place we would go back to.

Amazing, perfect little cabin for a couple. Just enough room for the two of us, bed was comfortable, cabin was clean and updated, and the views next to the creek were amazing. Will definitely stay again!

We absolutely loved our little cabin.. hot tub on the back porch a total win! Nice and quite spot. Great for couples to disconnect from the world and reconnect with each other.. not far at all from anything but yet far enough away to have peace.. every time i come up from now on, im definitely staying here! Amazing price's too! I cant stop raving and talking about it.. Thank you!!

The property was great. The Cabin was in great conditions minus 1 issue with the shower head that leaked but no big deal. The phone number for the host that I used from their site was met with no response to my message, but it was figured out either way. parking was kind of difficult (a truck with trailer takes up most of the space and makes it difficult to get into your assigned spot). I would stay again though.

After we paid for 3 nights in full, Panther Creek sold our cabin to another, then charged us a second time, and put us in a U-Haul that they call a tiny home. We arrived in the dark, trailer was dark. There were bugs, dirt, feces. A sheer curtain for a bathroom door, toilet not attached to floor, floor sticky, furniture filthy and greasy. Electrical outlets improperly installed, there is no code, apparently for human safety. Water was left in an appliance on counter from at least a month ago…we RAN out in AM and notified Panther Creek, explained, and proved to them that we paid in full. They tried to keep both sets of payments, as they have a no refunds policy. Ruined our trip. I have photos of the filth, how do I show others to help folks see this bait-and-switch and FECES on furniture and handrails. Horrifying. when traveling, we used to try to support Native run businesses, but lack of codes and laws will keep us from Cherokee, and all Native businesses in all future travels. A real shame, but hey, they can make their own rules. After months of badgering, we were able to get some resolution from PCC, but did they clean up, figuratively and literally? Don’t risk your travel $, please.
