The house was exactly as described, everything was clean and check in was a breeze. Extremely quiet and peaceful place to get away. Also just a short trip to town for necessities. Great place to stay while riding motorcycles. Would definitely stay again!
Overall a great place be mindful of road traveling in and out cars can access but very carefully as ground clearance is going to cause scraping along the way the higher the ground clearance the better you are suvs will have no issues other than that and that’s nothing major at all the place is fantastic beautiful river view from deck over river comfortable beds and very clean cabin. cabin is very cozy feeling like home away from home would recommend this place to anyone and very likely we stay again in the future!!!
Very pleasant visit. The river was very unpredictable which the host could have no control of. lol. I did expect to spend time floating and using it. It would rise very quickly and there was not an easy access to get in. But the chalet was wonderfully stocked and we had a great time playing games, ping pong, and air hockey.
The property is absolutely beautiful!! The cabin has big beautiful windows. The porches are stunning and so is the gazebo. This is the perfect place for those who love the outdoors! It is extremely peaceful!

Fun at the river!
Cozy house, easy river access. All the essentials for a quick get away.
We loved our stay. The homeowner was very quick to respond. Even brought us hand soap & batteries which I didn't expect. Easy to get to. Had everything we needed to he able to cook, grill or an open fire in the fire pit. We brought wood with us, but also plenty of broken branches in the yard to start a fire. We fished, played air hockey, ping pong & xbox. It was very relaxing & quiet. And the bed in the master was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on. I wish I knew what mattress they had. The description of the home & long drive/gravel road was very accurate. We really enjoyed our long weekend getaway!
Everything we needed was there. Even a bottle opener. The host, Kevin, was so cool and prompt in calling with any questions or concerns. The property was beautiful!!! The home was SO comfortable including the bed. The wrap around porch and seating was perfect for listening and watching the river with morning coffee. My favorite part was the Brita water filter pitcher that was filled awaiting our arrival! Thank you! The Cherokee Fishing Trap was awesome to see.
The property is beautiful and fantastic. It had everything we needed.
The mile drive on the dirt road was a bit rough. We had had a great deal of rain the 24 hours prior to our departure and I was fearful the I would not be able to get out, but the road held up just fine!
My wife and I had a nice time. We enjoyed the river view very much. We also saw deer in the field, a momma with her baby. We read previous reviews and we were glad that we did, that could be a tough drive in the dark, so we were sure to get there before dark. The air hockey table and X-box kept us entertained on a rainy day. The chalet was very clean!!
We had an amazing time at the Trout Chalet! The kids enjoyed the table games and puzzles while we were there.The fire pit in the evening was a delight and kept us warm while cooking marshmallows.The Notelly River was low tide the first day of so then it was high tide and running through the sounds of the water hitting the rocks or the low branches was very relaxing to hear.Kevin is a great host and very communicative as well. As per previous reviews the private road getting in to the property is a bit of a challenge and I’m glad we rented a Wagoneer that is an all wheel drive. Once you travel it a few times you get used to it.
The Trout Chalet was everything we had hoped it would be. The owners went above and beyond to warn us about potential road closures with Helene on the way. They made checking out early very easy.
The river is beautiful and unfortunately we didn’t have time to fish. We were in town to work and the WiFi was perfect!
other reviewers stated that you needed 4WD. We did have Jeeps. The locals have regulars cars and make it in and out every day. We didn’t think it was hard to find or difficult to get to.
The cabin has everything stocked that you would ever need. For those who complained about the sheets, I would rather put on clean sheets than sleep in a bed in which the sheets may have been on for days if the cabin hasn’t been rented. We thought everything was perfect.
The location is indeed beautiful. The road leading to the cabin is rugged, narrow and rough in places, but worth it if you have a SUV. Not so sure a regular vehicle would make it.
The cabin was nice and clean. It does need some updates. If you’re interested in preparing your own meals, the cookware there is not recommended. The water smells of sulfur, but it is well water and hard. We had problems getting the door to unlock upon arrival and even after the owner having the batteries changed, the door never locked when we went out daily. It is a very safe area, but still….
The cabin is not luxury but adequate. The wood burning fireplace was a plus and we had a fire every morning and night. If you’re looking for a plush cabin this is not the place. If you’re looking for an affordable and comfortable place to stay while you spend the days exploring, this is the place.
There are some repairs that need to be made. Some as simple as light bulbs in the laundry room and living area.
The owner was quick to reply with the difficulties we had with the door lock and easy to deal with.
We enjoyed our stay, the location was indeed beautiful but would we go back, unfortunately no.
Our stay was nice and enjoyable. There were other people renting next door which was fine other than one lady occupying the gazebo overlooking the river the majority of the time. We were unable to enjoy it because she was on it continuously and wasn’t friendly at all. Maybe I am mistaken or maybe she thought it was part of their rental and not shared. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was adequately supplied, being able to use the washer and dryer were a plus. Only drawback was the narrow one mile driveway to the home. It was very rough. Definitely recommend an AWD or 4-wheel drive vehicle.
I am posting this only as for information to future elderly vacationers. As I am over 65. The road to the property is dirt and narrow, was no problem for my SUV , but I think it would be a tough drive if we had driven the typical sedan The second bedroom is upstairs so take your stair climbing into consideration. But if you are looking for a quiet relaxing space, this is it!. You do not have access down to the river but you have a great view from the deck over the water and from the porch. We enjoyed sitting, listening to the quiet and enjoying our morning coffee and aftersoon wine. ! Just so relaxing. Getting into a town was not an issue. There are a couple of eatery places within a couple miles(BBQ and breakfast) Driving into Murphy and Blue Ridge was not a problem. My only disappointment was I brought coffee for a Keurig, and the coffee maker needs filters and ground coffee.
We stayed two nights at the Trout Chalet. We enjoyed our stay. The river was beautiful and peaceful. The home was spacious and supplied all our needs. The negative was the dirt road entering the property. A 4- wheel drive should be recommended for this property. We got there without one but it was difficult. Also this is a one lane dirt road. If you meet a vehicle someone will have to backup.
The shades in the downstairs of our chalet are not privacy anyone outside can see right in.
The owner was quick to answer all my questions in email before we left. We enjoyed our stay.
