Thanksgiving Getaway
The property was perfect for our group of 10. We enjoyed the views and fires in the fireplace. The location was nice in that neighbors weren't right on top of each other but the driveway is steep. The cabin was older but well kept. Even though the porch was sloping, it was not at all unsafe or concerning. We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

Pros: Good location, nice views, roomy. Furnishings are old but cozy. Awesome garage for the motorcycles. Cons: Steep gravel road not for beginner riders. Looking for a roomy,comfortable place in a good location this is it. If you're looking for modern, fancy furnishings, this isn't it.

Stayed for a week perfect for family. Only 1 T.V. which was a perfect so the 3 teenagers were forced to unplug and interact lol. It is a steep climb on a gravel road so be prepared. It is an older cabin there was a sweet older beagle dog that would come to visit. All around great stay no complaints. Thank you!

Property needs some attention
Let’s start with what we liked about the property. It was simple. We could let the kids be loose and not have to worry about them breaking something or wedding something up. The views were amazing. Evolve was very helpful prior to our arrival. A good amount of antenna channels come in on the tv. Now let’s get to the bot so good things. The cleanliness of the property. There were rat dropping in the kitchen drawers. Dirty dishes in the cabinets. What appears to be evidence of an exploded coke in the ice maker. A package of cigars on the nightstand of one of the bedrooms. Mold on the ceiling of the dining room. Now things that did not work. The dryer door didn’t stay closed, there had been duck tape placed to hold the door. Don’t worry we fixed that. There is no heat down in the basement. There were space heaters located in the bedrooms down there several of which did not work. There is a gas heater located down there we could not get it to light, could have been an operator error. The downstairs bathroom sink would not drain, we cleaned it out and found a bottle cap, a rock, and a wad of hair the size of a mouse which I suppose goes back to cleanliness, how do you clean a sink and not notice it won’t drain. You couldn’t wash your hands without it filling up. Others have complained about the deck, it is very questionable on the side of the house. We didn’t use that area, we only used right at the door. The central unit thermostat batteries were dead, we replaced them. A few other things to note for future visitors. The upstairs bathroom can not be accessed by a wheelchair. The doorway was not wide enough. The house sleeps 10, there were not 10 towels and wash cloths. We had 7 people and had to go buy towels and wash cloths for everyone to be able to have a shower everyday. The house is much smaller than it seems in the photos. Which wasn’t a problem for us just something others may want to know. The kitchen sink leaks, there was a bowl under it to catch water. The washing machine does not have cold water, so to rise you have to restart the cycle . We did not call the management company because we feel like they know, and we were already there it was a holiday so we just let it go. The purpose of this review is to inform them of what needs to be done and to warn future visitors of potential issues if these things go unfixed. Overall we had a great time it was just frustrating to stay in a home with so many issues. Will not stay here again.

Beautiful cabin
There was 5 of us plus 3 dogs and there was still more than enough room the cabin fits 11 people easily and comfortably. Yes the place is a bit difficult to get to but once you get to the cabin it's worth it's Exactly like it describes. The only problem we had was on the outside left side of the house (driveway side) it was starting to bow but other than that my family and I will b back. Thank you for a great stay. My favorite part was the sunrise on the mountains BEAUTIFUL.

Rural Cabin was fantastic, but not perfection.
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here last week and would definitely stay here again. If you're looking for a 5-Star Ritz-Carlton experience, this isn't it. It's a cabin in the middle of nowhere and it's age means it's a little rough around the edges (broken coffee table, aging deck, a couple soft spots in the sun room floor) - a bit like visiting your grandmothers house. But we don't see that as a negative at all. It was very cozy and just perfect for us. And we can also see where the owners are making improvements with many things being recently replaced, so that's good. The deck is aged, as other reviews have said, but perfectly safe. We loved it out there while cooking dinner on the grill or just enjoying the incredible mountain view. We had no issues with water, as some other reviews have said. We were all showering, cooking, and running the dishwasher daily, and never had an issue with running out of water. Water was nice and hot when needed too. There was no issue with bugs either. I figured it would be buggy to be so out in the middle of nowhere. But I didn't see any bugs, really, except for some millipedes which are completely harmless, so that's not a big deal. The only real issue we had (which would be a benefit for some) is that our phones didn't work at all. We had absolutely ZERO reception and couldn't even send a text message. This was only really an issue when we first arrived because we couldn't open our emails to get the check-in procedures to get inside the home. So be warned about that and have all your check in procedures opened and saved before you go anywhere close to the area. Once you're in the cabin, however, you have access to the cabins Wi-Fi which is surprisingly fast to be out in such a rural area. We had no problem streaming movies on the TV and using all of our phones while on the cabins Wi-Fi. While the cabin is beautiful, it is VERY rural - way more out in the sticks than we realized. It required a 45-60 minute drive to get to pretty much anywhere, with Pigeon Forge being a full 2 hour drive away. And anywhere you go also involves wild, windy, twisty mountain roads so have dramanine on hand if you're not used to such roads. Not a bad thing just more rural than realized. The driveway in front of the cabin is flat, but the loose gravel road up to the cabin is VERY steep. Our SUV never had a problem getting up there though. Just took some doing. Over all, it was a great experience and we're very glad we went.

Stay far away
DO NOT RENT THIS PLACE. If you are worried about you and your family's safety; stay way from this rental. If you have a motorcycle, a trailer or an RV/ camper you will not be able to get to this place safely. If you do get to this place it only holds 2 cars comfortably. More than two cars you have to back into the drive way or won't have enough room to turn around. Once you reach the house you will see that out side deck and part of the house has rot on it. We tried to use the dining area ONCE. And when this part of the house shifted. Our OSHA inspector and two carpenters who stayed at the house went to inspect the structural integrity of the dinning room. It was sketchy at best. The hand rail is no where near Tennessee regulation. Anyone could fall of the deck easily. Would stay far away from this house until it has been properly fixed.

Not rentable
Arrived at house which was hell to get to, went there for motorcycle riding. You can't get a bike up the gravel hill, way to steep! A tree had fallen through deck which compromised the dining room safety. Also back deck was unsafe, rotted and the hand rail would move a foot in either direction. Trees were falling in driveway so you couldn't park a car in driveway. We canceled and even though we didn't stay there they wanted to charge us for cleaning fee! To BS! I would not recommend this house to anybody!

Needs updating
Host was very nice to accommodate us last minute. There was plenty parking for 4 cars and not too steep to get to house. House needs lots of TLC including rotten deck, old outdoor furniture, stained ceiling tiles, and broken refrigerator and foos ball table. We were happy to find a place and spent much of time exploring the area. We had 8 adults and the 5 bedrooms accommodated us nicely with 3 bedrooms downstairs so the teenagers had their own space. We reported the broken refrigerator/freezer so hopefully it will be fixed before the next guest arrives.

It was better than we expected.
We were initially turned off by the reviews but in contacting the management we were assured the problems had been fixed. The water worked great except if you are there in freezing conditions it is best to let a faucet drip overnight to prevent freezing. I am picky about my drinking water so only used the water for cooking, etc. Absolutely no problems with cleanliness or pests. We did turn the pilot light for the fireplace off by mistake but an email was answered in minutes and we were up and running again. Great area, saw the Jupiter Neptune thing and would go back.

Great Cabin perfect for a weekend away from hustle and bustle!
Our family 5 adults and 5 children thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the mountain home! We arrived at the cabin -- please be aware the driveway is steep but perfectly fine getting up! There was plenty of parking at the cabin and we drove a large suv and a large truck we could have fit another large suv with room to spare! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and cozy! The couches were very comfortable TV was nice and internet was also great! Once we arrived at the cabin we had absolutely no bars of cell service so having wifi was great so we could call via that! The beds were pretty good the down stairs rooms do not have vents but were cool and warm when we needed them they all have ceiling fans so that was a plus! We enjoyed the view from the deck and the large windows! We found ourselves opening the windows to hear the wind and playful squirrels also! All in all we enjoyed our trip! The cabin is about 25 mins from Bryson City and about 15-20 from the Fontana Dam which was amazing to see! I recommend this cabin to those who want to be out of the city and enjoy the parks and local attractions!

No water
We had 8 people staying over three nights. Only 3 showers were taken when water ran out. There were “well pump reset instructions“ on window sill that had little effect. Water would only last a few minutes ,at the beginning of reset, and then no water For the rest of the weekend. We were flushing with cooler water until toilets clogged on last day. Gas grill was filthy Deck was warped and unstable, with loose boards Dining porch was leaning with rotted boards as support Bot fuse all and dart nap d were broken and missing parts Refridge water filter had not been changed since 2013 Trash was left behind building and thrown overSinks drain hill, upon arrival Toilet seat and sinks drain were broken on second floor Bathroom A lot of light bulbs were out Grill caught fire on first attempt to grill (full of grease) This property should of never been rented. Spoke to building manager and he went over water reset instructions, but we would “have to deal with situation. Well would be fixed in a couple weeks “

My stay with large family
Getting to the property was a little hard due to it being up the mountain but we finally found it. Parking was very difficult but we also made it work with 5 cars. Can’t park in “garage” it’s too small, more like a shed. The worst thing is that we didn’t have enough water to take showers for everyone. So all week we had to conserve water and sometimes had to wait 3 days to shower. The first time we ran out of water 6 people took a shower and the water was completely drained. This place says that it can lodge 11 people. Not true if y’all want to all shower every night. But good thing about this place is that it had plenty of beds and the view was great! The beds though were not good quality besides the master king downstairs. Overall this place was a 2 star. Ohhh and don’t try to take a boat to this place! You won’t be able to fit and bring down the mountain!

Very nice and relaxing cabin
Family friends and myself came to the area to ride the train from Bryson City and to Whitewater raft with the NOC group. We booked this cabin with no issues, if you have 8 or 10 people this cabin will accommodate them for sleeping. It is an older cabin with a lot of character. The property owner was awesome the communication was top-notch I would highly recommend this cabin if you are going to stay anywhere around Bryson City or Robbinsville.

July stay
The cabin was nice and accommodating for 9 people. There were just a couple of things that needed some work. The game table downstairs needs to either be replaced or fixed. It was very unsteady and did not seem safe. We were all on motorcycles so it would of been nice to be warned of the road/driveway. It was not a good drive to be on bikes as it was tricky and not very well maintained. We had everything we needed to fix meals which was nice. The overall stay at the cabin was great and we all had a good time. I would definitely recommend this place if you are not on motorcycles.
