Beautiful home
Stunning home on the river - great stay with beach front river property. The house was very spacious and comfortable to stay in. Very clean and homey! I do wish there were more cleaning supplies available such as a broom and disinfectant since we were in the river all day. Also this house has immediate neighbors which wasn’t preferred. They were very kind people however!

Nice place no problems with the cabin at all. Need to include in your property details of getting there that it is a one lane gravel road, that requires a 4 x 4 or high vehicle so you don’t drag on the road. Also must back up down the narrow road if somebody is coming your way needs to be a 2 lane road and a more visible sign of property number for this unit. The cabin has a hwy across from unit next to river that is very loud, not very quiet as the property details state.

Secluded Escape
Great cabin and very relaxing space. We enjoyed our visit and hope to return. I would only recommend driving a truck or other taller, off-road vehicle to access. The "road" is rather narrow, curvy, and rocky but it's worth it!!!

Quiet location
The location on the river was great and was beautiful. Easy access to fishing from the bank. There is a rafting company that people do use often and they are floating by. The location of the cabin is within an hour of gatlinburg and the nantahala forest. The towns of sylva & dillsboro offer unique restaurants & shops. There were plenty of kitchen gadgets, pots & pans, etc for easy cooking. Just know the last mile or so driving to the cabin is a single lane gravel road.

It was okay but the trash bin was extra full we stayed four days and had 3 bags of trash and could not put any of them in the trash cans and they wanted us to take the garbage out which was ok and they did provide the trash bags but if you stay longer than that take you more paper towels and toilet tissue you will need them.

Holy Highway Noise!
First off the cabin is very nice and comfortable and had everything we needed, including a gas grill with 2 propane tanks handy. The view of the river from the deck and grounds is beautiful. This is a secluded cabin in only the sense that you will have to traverse a roughed-in one way mountain rd. This was no issue for our 4WD Subaru and we only encountered 3 other vehicle's on our 6 night stay, luckily we encountered them near a passable area otherwise one of us would have to reverse down a steep narrow rd. Once you reached this beautiful cabin you think you have made it to peace and serenity... until you realize the main highway that runs through the town is just a stones throw away across the river and drowns out any peace and quiet you are seeking. Unfortunately i had already booked a nonrefundable stay before reading the others comments about this issue, so if you are reading this, think twice about whether this will bother you or not. Its not so loud it will keep you up in your bedroom, but is loud enough to drown out the babbling river noise all day and night. I came up from the very busy Tampa FL area and hear less road traffic. This was a huge disappointment and although a beautiful cabin and view. We will not return. Also, towels smelled terrible, had to rewash multiple times and there was pet hair on all the comforters. We tossed them off the beds and used the provided clean sheets and throws. Everything else was sparkling clean.

Beautiful home near Asheville
The home and setting were absolutely beautiful. The all wood pine interior felt well designed and cozy. There were 3 adults and one dog and all the bedrooms were very comfortable. The loft bedroom is very nice and private despite being open. The deck looking out onto the river was cozy, even in January. Do NOT be concerned about the narrow road. We had no issues even on a foggy, rainy night. One issue, the very kind neighbor has an off leash dog that pooped EVERYWHERE! Even on the gravel driveway. We pick up after our dog no matter where he goes to the bathroom, but we had to avoid the other dog's waste all over the property. Also, I will never book a property that uses Vacasa again. Their customer service reps (who I talked to just 3 times) were not friendly and didn't really know anything about the property. No help and never really answered specific questions. The property itself...gorgeous.

Friend/Family Getaway
Our group included 2 families: moms, dads, and 3 teens. The guys have fished the area many times in the past, and the wives came along for the MLK weekend to scope out the area. The cabin was well-suited for most of our needs. It was a bit surprising that there was no WIFI access. Cell signal was weak at the house too. Beyond that, it was a great place for our families, and we'd probably book again!

Quick weekend getaway with friends
My wife and I with another couple came up for a weekend. The driveway was long and narrow and we were concerned after reading several reviews about it however it was no trouble at all. Cabin was nice and well supplied. Our only issue was traffic noise, while picturesque there is a major highway right across the river and somewhat takes away from the tranquility we hoped for with the river proximity to the back porch. Overall nice place to stay but I doubt we come back....

Family Vacation
Beautiful property, beautiful location and views. Loved the proximity to the river. When we first arrived we were shocked and the road to the cabin, straight up a huge hill, similar to the tractor trailer runs off on mountains, it’s a mile in, narrow and very bumpy and scary. The combo lock didn’t work no matter how many times we tried, and a few phone calls we were able to get the combo to lockbox and use regular door keys instead. We were immediately greeted by the neighbor and his dog. It was a wonderful place to stay; everything was right there; we enjoyed lots of fishing and tubing in the river; we made a fire every night, and made s’mores. We made Breakfast every morning, we had everything we needed. The king size bed upstairs was great and my kids all had plenty of room downstairs. A few negatives were: no hangers in closet, no iron, not enough toilet paper, barely enough garbage bags, batteries only In one remote so we had to switch between rooms, the front door locked every time u shut out and u would be locked out, and it would have been easier if their was access to the back yard from the back steps. Over all it was a lovely experience. And we had a wonderful time. If u don’t mind driving on the road in, the rest was all great.
