Anniversary trip

This is a great place to stay if you want to get away from everything. We truly enjoyed the cabin and the beautiful scenery in the entire area, especially this time of year. The only issue we had was we lost water because of another cabins pipe burst but the weather cant be controlled. This is a beautiful area and we will be staying at one of the cabins again in the future. Thank You.

Amazing and BEAUTIFUL!

The location was absolutely gorgeous. The cabin spotless with all the things we may have needed. Left a bottle of soap thinking we would need it but nope, so we left of for whenever it will be needed. Only thing that I would change is the AC unit sounded like the barring we’re going up. Made a loud noise. Thankfully we sleep with a sound machine at home otherwise it would have been restless nights. Other than that thank you for an amazing spot for some R&R!

Magical

Precious cabin for two! Beautiful drive on winding road along and over the White Oak Creek with views of the mountains forest and water falls. Lots of outdoor recreation activities. I booked white water rafting on the Nantahala in the morning and zip lining in the mountain forest in the afternoon! The fully equipped kitchenette was perfect for quick morning breakfast. I brought prepared food and easy oatmeal, honey, walnuts. There is an outdoor grill and fire pit! Coffee pot was big plus since I brought my favorite coffee. The hot tub served for a relaxing and meditative morning! My lab pups loved running around the property, fortunately we were only inhabitants during our stay so they very happily roamed free! I had leads handy to attach them close to the cabin if needed. The entire property was lovely, picturesque and serene.

Coyote Song

We stayed at Chelokee Cove Cabins’ Coyote Song May 31-June 1, 2025. The accommodations were as described. Great value for the price! A creek/stream runs alongside each cabin. That, coupled with the outdoor seating/fire pit and picnic table makes for a lovely scene. The environment was peaceful and quiet, with the sound of the stream creating great ambiance. While we did not use the hot tub, it’s conveniently located and has stairs for easy access in and out. We definitely plan to come back and will stay longer next time and take in more of the nearby activities. We did hike Tellico Gap. A nice, moderate-difficulty trail with beautiful views. The owner provides all the information you need for a relaxing stay. The check-in and out processes are super easy. And lastly, you can purchase bundles of firewood behind Moose Song cabin for 5. Be prepared to use cash or Paypal/Venmo/Cashapp. The cabin itself also has some sundries for purchase. Be prepared to bring your own toiletries as well as charcoal, etc. if you wish to use the outdoor grill. There’s also on-site laundry. Just need to bring your own detergent.

This beautiful little cottage offers a peaceful stay in a somewhat secluded area. It was pretty spacious for a tiny cottage. It was clean. If you like to hike it is close to some great hiking. The host was kind and easy to work with. The hot tub was amazing after a long hike. We will be back. hike.
