Perfect mountain getaway!

This cabin and host were perfect! Clean, cozy, and quiet! The listing is spot on and the host, Nancy, was extremely responsive. We had everything we needed, minus a quick trip to the grocery. Be sure to have a reliable vehicle as the roads are steep, but well worth the drive! Loved our stay!

Cabin in the Mountains

First of all, I do want to say that the drive to the cabin is very, very steep and has a narrow road. Other than the drive up the cabin was extraordinary and very well kept. The balcony up top is a great place to sit and have your coffee and just listen to the wildlife. Our first night there we did see 6 bear near the cabin so if you want to see wildlife I think you’ll see it here. We really enjoyed our stay!

Fall 2024 getaway

My wife and i enjoyed our stay at this the cabin. It is a newer , well kept and clean cabin.it has several extra amenities to entertain any age level. It is very quite with few close neighbors which we enjoyed as we hung out mostly on the screened in porchin the evening and watched a couple of movies. We plan on returning soon for another stay.nancy was easy to contact and very responsive to any need or concerns we had. veryporch

Excellent for groups

Overall excellent experience. We were able to spot a bear next to the cabin as well. Extra blind for kitchen/patio door could have added the coziness/safety. Basic toiletries and towels were provided which was good but Makeup towels were not that clean and had hair on it!! But overall cleanliness was really good. Would strongly recommend.

Beautiful and clean!

We had a wonderful trip. The place was extremely clean and very beautiful location. We loved sitting on the back porch in the morning and evening. Be very aware of bears! My husband was taking a bag of trash to put in the car so we could drive it up the hill to the trash bins as we were checking out. He turned to look over his shoulder and a bear was right there. The bear was not afraid of us at all. He charged at my husband and I had to throw a water bottle down the hill which bought us enough time to get in the car and lock the doors. The bears are very active at dawn and dusk. Don’t let your guard down anywhere. Nancy was extremely responsive and was a wonderful host. You will have the best issue no matter where you go around there.

The cabin was perfect. Master suites on each floor was a huge bonus and the kids loved the loft game room. The cabin was cozy, clean and the fully stocked kitchen was perfect for our needs. My favorite feature was the screened in porch with sofas, dining area and a TV, and the hot tub was private and relaxing. The kids enjoyed making s'mores at the fire pit. This property was perfect and I would highly recommend. Communication was great. Overall an excellent experience.

This cabin was everything we wanted and more. We had a couple last minute changes and the host was super helpful and very responsive to communications. I cannot recommend the property enough! My only complaint is that we didn’t see any bears…but you can’t control Mother Nature!

We had an amazing stay. The only thing to say is I wish we would have stayed longer.Nancy was easy to communicate with and she made sure we had all the information we needed before we arrived. The cabin is even better than the pictures, kids loved the air hockey and the fire pit for smores and my husband saw a bear. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Jones

Host profile image
Tennessee is my home. I was raised in a small rural community, and continue to live in that area where I have worked and raised my family. We grew up knowing the love of family! When we are together for a meal, experience a tree trekking adventure, watch a game, travel, or gather around to play a game of Pinochle it's the most rewarding time! It's family!

Why they chose this property

This property is special in so many ways! My mother is the inspiration for Aunt Lib's "Shine" Shack. She was a truly remarkable lady in all of her roles. She loved life!
Especially time spent with family and friends! This cabin is a place where family and friends can come together and make those long lasting special memories! Experience the wrap around porch with swings and rocking chairs, nap or read on the private screened in porch. Have a smores evening with your group on the patio and firepit! The Great Smoky Mountain area has so much to offer! Let Aunt Lib's "Shine" Shack host your family or group!

What makes this property unique

Secluded and private with nature all around!
