Love this cablin
Great property!! Pics don't do it justice. We enjoyed our stay and had everything we could possibly need. Day was a great host and checked in with us often. Even the most random questions were answered very quickly and Day was super helpful with questions not relating to the property. The view from the master is beautiful. We will stay here again. Thank you Day!!

Love love love is all i can say
We rent vrbos all over the US . We enjoyed this property probably the best. It was nice and quite and very relaxing and clean. The driveway is a little steep but your stay makes it all worth the driveway. The property management was quick to respond to answer questions. Literally responded within 5 minutes. The outside photos does no justice at all for this property. Inside is a farmhouse cabin setting. They spared no expense when it came to decorating for your comfort. I can tell you that if your reading this review dont hesitate BOOK NOW you will love it. We will be back

Excellent location and exceptional host!
The house is absolutely perfect for our family and the location is perfectly located between Cherokee and Bryson city. We enjoyed kayaking in the river just steps away from the house. The host is very accommodating and great communication! We will be back! 10+ star rating of it was one! Lucy Elder

Beautiful mountain retreat
Two couples spent three beautiful days enjoying fresh air, fishing, casino visits, local exploring and eating! Great location for local exploring. Fontana Dam was a great afternoon trip, comedy club at the casino rounded out the day! The private docks on the property were a little unsteady, but totally safe! Internet connectivity was not at all reliable, but that was clearly disclosed. We did not have a single complaint on the house, it totally met our expectations! Front porch sitting was the best!

We are a wheelchair bound family. The only issue is the beds are too high for disabled people. It was terrible getting into the beds each night.

Perfect weekend getaway
This is our 2nd time staying at this property! It is super clean and is very charming. The river is beautiful and my husband and sons had a nice time fishing. The back porch is great to have your morning coffee and listen to the sounds of nature. Super quiet. 10 minutes to town/casino. Just wonderful!

Not worth what we paid!
House was semi clean. Floors were filthy and we had to keep our shoes on. The bathroom exhaust fans were very nasty. I wanted to fish but wasn’t told about the flood 4 months earlier which left trees all in the water wreaking havoc on my attempt to fish! Needless to say I donated some very expensive lures and spent most of my time repairing my line. We’ll look elsewhere for our next rental. Waste of money!

My husband and I were looking for the perfect place to bless our moms with a relaxing getaway weekend for Mother’s Day. This spot was it! From the secluded area, peaceful river streaming and housing accommodations it checked all of the boxes and more! The owner Day, checked in on us everyday to make sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back!

Cherokee fishing with friends
The location was great and this might be the nicest VRBO and owner that I have booked. The owner responded to every message in less than 30 minutes and typically in less than 5. The outside looks plain but the inside is wonderfully done with great decorative touches. Everyone in our group felt this way. Thanks Day hope to be back. Obtw. The porch is a great start and finish to the day.
