We had a great weekend at the cabin! The views were beautiful, especially with the fall colors, and the accommodations were comfortable and well kept. Communication with the host was excellent. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it!

First of all, we couldn’t ask for a better Host. Crystal was very attentive and was quick to answer any questions. The cabin was magnificent and had the best Mountain View’s you could ask for. Everything that we could have wanted was available to us……..kitchen utensils and equipment, paper goods, spices and even waffle mix. It was a joy to stay the week in this beautiful, well kept cabin and hope to stay there again.

This Scaly Mountain cottage is immaculate and beautiful! It is secluded and peaceful, but close enough to Dillard and Clayton to be convenient. Very nicely and apparently recently updated, and we appreciated the well-stocked kitchen - it even has a small air fryer! Shower has fantastic water pressure, and it's always so handy to have a washer and dryer. It also seems to me this host uses unscented/hypoallergenic cleaning products, which is important to those of us with "sensitive" noses. Everything is organized and very well thought out. Lots of games and interesting books for all ages. The host's advice on having 4WD for the steep gravel driveway is spot on - we had no problems with our AWD 4Runner. We had a great stay and wish we could have stayed longer! We plan to return in future.

It was absolutely beautiful, amazing views and a beautiful house. Crystal helped us out so much with anything we might have needed and was overall very hospitable. Once you get up to the house the parking is very convenient, the ride up was a bit bumpy though! Very glad we heeded the warning on the listing that recommended a 4WD vehicle!
