We loved our time here, wish it could have been longer! The creek was a delight and entertaining for the kids - safe to walk and play around in. Close enough to town but secluded and peaceful. There was a maintenance problem the management company responded to within 24 hours. Would definitely stay again!!!

The cabin was extremely clean! The creek/river that runs around the property was heavenly. There was even another small waterfall right across the street within our viewing area. We sat out on the deck each morning to have our breakfast and just enjoy the scenery and listen to the water. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The owners provide everything you need to grill out and even roast marshmallows. This was not in our plans, but with such a welcoming fire pit and skewers available, we had to take advantage of the opportunity. We will definitely be back!
The creek/ river runs right around the property.
The additional waterfall, across the street, was a nice bonus.
The view from the bridge.
Backyard fire pit and charcoal grill.

Two massive detractors. The cabin is located very near the Cherokee marijuana farm. Going to and coming from the cabin meant you had to constantly smell pot. I'm not a smoker, gummy eater, or anything of the sort, so for that reason alone, I will never go back to this cabin. Other detractor. The internet wifi was horrible. 0.17mbps download speed, 0.23mbps upload speed. It took over 30 minutes to just load email. Had to go to town to do anything more complex than email, or use data link from phone (wherever available). Aside from those two, cabin was nice, clean, kitchen had all the appliances needed, shower and bathroom was clean and modern, no lack of hot water. Beds weren't very comfortable, but also not the worst. I'd say it was a mediocre stay overall.

Great view!

We loved being right on the stream and hearing the rushing water! The sofa was super comfortable, and the kitchen had what we needed. Would have liked to have a smart tv, but otherwise great!

Quaint cabin on a beautiful babbling stream

Beautiful setting

Rural beautiful setting, about half way between Bryson City and the Cherokee entrance to Smoky Mountain National Park. This location worked great for us. When we were not off hiking and exploring, we enjoyed the flowing creek right next to the cabin. The open kitchen great room worked well. This cabin made our trip to the Smokies even more enjoyable.

Great property - but Helene showed up

We really liked this property and were excited about the creek just feet away, our boys were excited to explore it. Unfortunately our trip was cut short due to hurricane Helene. The property manager reached out and warned us that an evacuation was possible and we decided leaving early was best. She was so helpful and even refunded our unused nights since it was out of our control. The cabin is cute and well kept. We loved the fire pit and the creek out front. We may stay again in a different season.

Great little cabin but don't use as homebase for motorcycle riding.

We had a wonderful 6 nights on Coopers Creek exploring the area by truck. We also had a motorcycle which I don't recommend for this location. The last half mile to the cabin is dirt/light gravel and very narrow and curvy, although it is flat. When raining or wet, the road is dangerous for a motorcycle, and fast cars, trucks, and buses come at you around the curves.

I stayed there a fe years ago. I fell in love the serenity of the creek. The waterfall is awesome.

I stayed there a few years ago with my niece. I fell in love with the serenity of the creek and the waterfall. Even the sound of the screen door closing. We enjoyed the firepit. We really enjoyed the evening until I go inside to take a shower to get all the smoke smell off of me. There was no water. We had no phone service and didn't realize there was a phone on the counter. I had blocked it with food. After we found the phone we call the nicest lady Jennifer. She called me right back and was very concerned about our situation. She got someone right away to fix the water issue. But so much for our relaxed evening. The first morning I started making breakfast there was a roach on the counter. I killed it and clean the whole counter and didn't tell my husband about it because I knew he wouldn't be happy about roaches. I wanted everything to be a great birthday weekend. Well that evening he went into the kitchen and there were two roaches on the counter crawling on everything. I couldn't wash the dish towels because the washer was off limits. So I used paper towels to wash the dishes before we ate and after we ate. Talking about towels we had one set of towels for each of us for 5 days. Thank goodness our friends didn't come with us. We would of had to go buy towels. Not good. The fan in the smaller bedroom made so much noise I had to move to the couch so I could use the quiet fan in the living room. I like a fan when I sleep. It had a paper towel stuffed in the area that needed to stop the noise. Well it didn't stop the noise. I hate that all this happen. I work very had to be able to go on vacation. It was such a sad experience. I felt like I felled to make my husband's birthday a good one. My first experience was such a great experience. I can deal with all the stuff except the ROACHES!!! There were roach hotels under the sink. They are not working. We came home a day early because I got tired of the roaches.Even with all our disappointment I would go back if everything was fixed. That is how much I love the cabin and the serenity of the water.

Perfect mother/daughter adventure

I stayed for two nights with my 9 year old while we visited the park. Check in was easy and the cabin was exceptionally clean and tidy, with every comfort we could want. The creek and waterfall were magical, especially in the evening when the lightning bugs came out. Close enough to town to get food, but still gave the feeling of escaped the road is close and the occasional vehicle drove by, but it didn’t take away from the feeling of privacy. We had some heavy rain during our stay and we did not encounter any trouble with the cabin or the road. It was a great place to rest and dry off after a soggy hike in the park and some playing in the river.

Weekend Getaway

We had a quick trip to visit the polar express and this property did not disappoint. It’s close to town, down an easy dirt/gravel road, and the creek in the yard is wonderful. There is even a waterfall across the road. We will definitely be back during the warm weather to enjoy the front porch and the hiking trails near by!

2 day get away

We did like the outside of this property quite a bit. The creek is nice, and the waterfall was cool. However, the pictures on the listing are pretty dated. The property could use some tending to. The outside is grown up in the back yard, and most the bushes in pictures are dead and withered. Clean, basic needs met, and ok for a few days, but the area has a Marijuana farm on the road about a half mile away, and my wife and I both were on the same page and wouldn't book again.

Loved this cabin

Everything was amazing. So relaxing to hear the creek all night. I loved being about to walk outside and feel like I was in a dream. The only complaint I have is the main bed needs a new mattress. I slept on the couch to avoid it the second night. But other than that it was an amazing trip and I can’t wait to go back.
