Absolutely Amazing!

This is the best cabin we have ever stayed in! The cabin is exquisite with all the hand carved details. Location is secluded and exactly what we needed. Highly recommend!

Swain County Cabin Rental

Everything was exactly as described. Loved the remote / private feel to the cabin. Process for check in was easy, everything was clean and working. Communication with the owner / manager was excellent. They provided a GPS link that took us directly to the cabin (cant always trust GPS in the mountains). The only thinkg i would say is please note that the last 1/2 mile or so of road is actaully gravel road. Did not matter to us, we actually enjoyed the rough mountian road vibe it had (we were in our Jeep), but in case you are driving a low profile sports car, just wanted to share that. Your sports car will make it, just go easy.

Very secluded

Overall nice cabin. Very clean.. some bulbs need replaced and the hot tub was not enjoyable as it was very slimy and nasty. I would recommend if you want food to look early. Was a good ways out. Overall i give it a 4 star.

Wonderful place

This was just what my parents, my husband and I needed. It was very peaceful, clean and beautiful. The check in process I was able to do before we arrived. Ginger was wonderful with communication and very nice. A place we would love to rent again!

Peaceful

The cabin is very private and has beautiful view in the morning. Very clean and nice accommodations. Internet was not working when we were there and there is no cell coverage which was actually very nice. My wife and I enjoyed our stay!
