River Bliss

The cabin was very comfortable and the atmosphere was wonderful. Listening to the river and birds sitting on the covered porch was blissful & relaxing. Everything was explained in detail by the host to include the light switches which was very helpful. We all enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful getaway

Loved this property. Neighbors were warm and friendly. Rental was clean and well stocked. We cook a LOT and enjoyed having more than enough pots, pans, and serving dishes to make all of our meals. Ingles and Walmart were conveniently close when it was time to shop. And the firepit was perfect for making smores at night. The screened-in porch made our morning coffee peaceful. It rained all week but, mosquitoes didn't bother us at all.We got to fish from the front of the property. We also spent the day at Hanging Dog campground fishing and grilling out. The property was great. And the host responded quickly to any questions I had.Hoping to go back again in the future.

Brasstown river cabin

Very nice, well equipped cabin on the Hiawasse river near Brasstown and Murphy NC. It was rainy while we were there and the TV streaming was not good, even on the one sunny day we had. But that aside it is a very comfortable cabin and we would be very happy to stay there again when we visit Brasstown.

Such a great spot!!!

We had the best time at this cabin!! The pictures dont do it justice! Yes, the other house blocks some of the river view, but you are so close, it didnt even bother us. The street is so quiet and private as well. Perfect spot for a get away. We hope to return some time!!

Cute house

We stayed here for our anniversary. I would like to note that this is not a riverfront property. There is a street and a house between you and the river. You do have an access point which is very pretty and we did take advantage of. With that being said, the house was cute and perfect for our dog. She absolutely loved being able to run around the fenced in yard and lounging in the screened in porch. The cabin was well stocked and in a nice/safe neighborhood. Owners were very welcoming and responsive. Overall we had a great time!

Relaxing along the river

Well appointed property across from the river in a quiet neighborhood. The rocky back yard was difficult on our dog's legs, so plan to go for walks out the front door. Good value and close to John C. Campbell.

Very quiet and comfortable

Convenient location, about a mile to JC Campbell Folkschool. The cabin was clean, quiet, and very comfortable. The only negative is that the bathroom sink upstairs drains very very slowly.....probably needs some drano or other method to improve a clogged sink.

Wonderful relaxing place with lots of things for family to do!

This place was wonderful. Beautiful view of the river and tons of items available in the cabin to make the stay enjoyable. Things like dishwasher soap, spices, oil, coffee filters, condiments, t.p., laundry soap, etc. all make it a much easier stay. We enjoyed using the fire pit next to the river almost every night. The kids bought inner tubes and went tubing down the river again and again. We went to nearby Fire's Creek, Hanging Dog, and Jackrabbit Parks to swim, tube, and fish. The master bedroom loft is mostly closed off so there is still plenty of privacy for whoever sleeps up there. Everything was clean and comfortable!
