This house and location is absolutely magical!! We stayed Memorial Day week, and all the trees were full of leaves. It feels as if you are deep within a remote forest, but in reality you are just minutes from town, rafting, hiking, and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. The house rules book has some extra rules that aren’t listed online, like what you need to do before starting a fire, what to do with trash, etc, so be sure to read through it. There are SO many light switches that it’s hard to figure out what goes to what. And about 1/4 of the bulbs were burned out, but I let the rental agency know, so hopefully you won’t have that problem. Even with that, there was still plenty of light. But overall I want you to know that this house was AMAZING. highly recommend.
I also want to throw a shout out to the folks at Smoky Mountain River Adventures. It’s less than ten minutes from the house and rafting was probably our favorite outting while there.
