We really enjoyed our stay. It was clean, and anything we needed was 10 mins. away. The cabin was even better than I thought it would be. It's very private and cabin has enough space for the whole family. Listening to the river/falls on the back porch was amazing! It was exactly what I needed for a quiet and calm vacation away. We will definitely go again.

The description indicates 3 bedrooms with one king and two queens. One of the queen bed bedrooms is not available to guests. What is available is a bedroom with a king bed, a bedroom with a queen bed, and a loft with a twin bed, as shown in the photos. But it was good for us so no real complaint.

A gem in the mountains for sure. Located in the best spot to get out & go and travel the mountain cities & location sites. Very relaxing, & tranquil serenity to enjoy. Be on the look out if your a nature lover. A turtle crossed our path up on our mountain road. We were amazed. Perfect for couples & large families. Loved the DVD collection too. I enjoy the vintage keepsakes that would make others happy.

Beautiful, clean property. Gorgeous scenery. Soothing creek sounds. Incredibly well stocked kitchen - could cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner with no problem. Pet friendly.

Lovely weekend getaway

The property was cozy and clean. We especially enjoyed the wood burning stove, hot tub and magnificent view of the creek below. Additionally, the cottage which felt very private and removed from the hustle and bustle of “town” was actually conveniently located just 5 minutes away from Dillard, 20 from Franklin and 15 from Clayton.

Cozy mountain getaway

We had a wonderful trip! The cabin was cozy and comfortable - everything we needed, and the location was amazing. Enjoyed sitting out on the porch and at the fire pit listening to the water as it rushed by. Took the hike to the waterfall. Very relaxing and refreshing - nice to slow down and enjoy nature and all it's beauty.

Cabin in the hills

Cabin was very nice. Kitchen had everything you could need. Condiments in fridge and coffee item. Coffee pot for Kuerig or drip. View of stream just below porch, which has inflatable hot tub. Beds were very comfortable. Perfect for 4 adults with 2 bathrooms.

Pure Beauty!

Even though we showed the weekend that Hurricane Helene came through. The property was beautiful. I contacted the owner and she very prompt in answering my questions. Even though we were without power for a day and half (because of the storm). It was just so beautiful at this property. I have annual conference at the Dillard House and I have stayed in a 5 different cabins during these conferences this was by far the best!

Perfect mountain getaway

We absolutely loved our recent stay at this super cute cabin. The pictures dont do it justice and its in a perfect location. About 30 minutes from Highlands(Dry Falls was awesome), 1 hour from Helen and 2 hours from Gatlinburg. You honestly dont need to leave though. Theres plenty to do at the cabin with the streams, trails, games, fire pit, movies, hot tub, etc. We sadly didnt get to finish the trail to the falls... We were really looking forward to that but I'm not in the best shape to get through certain areas without killing myself lol. We will definitely be back so we can finish that, though!The only thing that we wished was that they had the shampoo, conditioner and a shower gel in a locking type of dispenser, like hotels have(so they wouldn't be stolen). One of the shampoos were out, but we found another one in the other bathroom, and just tiny bar soaps were provided. Not that big of a deal but you might want to bring/buy your own shower gel when you come.
