About this house rental
FOX RUN CABIN - Rare find with a Creek and a view! Also a Waterfall only about a half mile hike up the mountain creek!
We knew we had found a treasure the first time we saw FOX RUN. We immediately fell in love with it's naturally peaceful ambiance. In fact, we loved it so much we decided to purchase the property and share it with others from all over the world.
The minute you pull into the driveway at Fox Run you will view it's comfortable setting nestled down in front of a gorgeous mountain view. As you step out of your car you will hear the sounds of the rushing creek that stretches the entire length of the property boundary.
Upon entering the cabin you will immediately notice the fine natural cherry floors, pine wood construction and the sweet wood aroma that you would expect in a custom hand built mountain cabin. It is open, airy and spacious. It is truly a gem.
Fox Run is undoubtedly one of the most popular cabins available for guests who want to come and enjoy the wonders of the Great Smoky Mountains!
It's so peaceful... Shhh!!! We've been told that God lives there. We're pretty sure he does!

Just read what some of our past guests have written in our guest book:
'We have fallen in love with Fox Run, especially the rockers on the expansive porch late in the evening. And with the soft bed and open windows with the rush of the little creek at night. Thanks to our great hosts who went above and beyond to make sure our stay was pleasant. We return to this area about every 10 years but Fox Run has made us want to return much sooner, (Maybe 6 Months).

'Spectacular views! We are celebrating our 16 year anniversary. What a place to celebrate! Fox Run is Great! Thank You for sharing it with us. It's so cozy. We love the porch and the rocking chairs, looking at the mountains, dreaming. The noise factor is so great, especially at night when all you hear is the creek and the animals. The hot tub was so relaxing after a day of shopping and checking out the area and so much to do. Living in Frankln NC at one time in my life, this was like coming home for me and a great adventure for my husband, who is from Long Island NY. There is nothing to complain about here. You just relax and enjoy God's country and look with amazement at what he has created for us to enjoy.'

'My Husband and I are celebrating 22 years of marriage. This place, (Fox Run) has been magical. Among our most magical moments, I'll hit the highlights.
1. Hummingbirds at the feeder
2. At night a field full of Fire Flies. Incredible!
3. The wild flowers were awesome
4. The peach and apple trees, blueberries and black berries were abundant!
5. Babbling creek - (meditation time)
6. The View!
7. The wonderful porch. I have no porch so coffee in the morning in the rocker on the porch is magical for me.
8. Enjoyed the birds.
9. Hot Tub Heaven!

'This was our 3rd year staying at Fox Run. It's nice staying at a familiar place. As always, we enjoyed the peace and quiet. This year we skipped white water rafting. Instead we went tubing in the GSM park.What a great time! We would highly recommend spending a day tubing the river. We also went on the great GSM train to the Nantahala Gorge. It was nice and relaxing. Thank You for providing a lovely and pleasant place to stay!'

Very remote, nice for privacy. Beautiful stream just below hot tub, was nice to hear stream every morning sitting on back porch having coffee. Very tight one lane road going to cabin very steep, a little nerve racking for us. We made sure we were back from daily adventures before dark.
Cleanliness was not good. Wooden floors were very dirty. The master bed mattress cover was filthy. Covered in animal and human hair and stains. Informed property manager Jack and he didn’t seem to believe me so I have photos of just how bad it was. Towels were old and dingy looking. Gatorade bottle and plastic water bottle were left in yard when we arrived? So it was either yard service or previous guest who left them.
Just not what we expected from photos. Will not be returning to this property.

The best part was driving over the creek

It was remote (very remote) BUT was nice to get away. The house was nicely laid out, had everything we needed. The property was on a ravine and cleared off piece with trees around. I am glad we took the SUV because you drive through a creek to get to the house, which was fun!
4.6
There was a lot of ants in the kitchen and was unable to leave cookies on counter. They were covered in ants and roaches. We had mouse running around during our stay. The pictures online where we made them was so much better than there. Unable to see the creek because of overgrowth and grass needed cutting. The pillows also were very used and had a smell to them. Please know that this is the only bad review I have ever left at any stays. We only slept at cabin because of these issues with the bugs and critters, didn't "hang out" there.

needs new living room furniture.

Loved waking up and sitting on the porch in the mornings before the other woke up. Being from Florida the weather was great with no humidity. Only suggestion would be to up date couch and recliner, they seemed a little wore out. Loved being able to take my dog he loved playing with his dad in the creek and laying on the porch.
4.6
Unmowed property, grass a foot tall, not enough toilet paper or paper towels. Hot tub leaks and doesn't heat up. Overgrown by the creek. Couldn't see the creek because of all the overgrown weeds. We discovered the garden hose was on down by the hot tube. Someone before us left it running. We turned it off.
4.6
Fox Run was AMAZING! The waterfall running beside the property was our favorite part! As the listing says the last half mile is a little challenging but made the trip that much more adventurous! Definitely worth it! We were pleased with the cabin, it was beautiful. The only complaint we had was the pull out sofa was dirty and my daughter would not sleep on it. The cabin has everything you need as far as supplies and even had a charcoal grill! The hot tub was hot and ready when we arrived! We were very happy with our stay and would certainly stay again!

Awesome Getaway
It was just what we were looking for. It was peaceful and quite and it was close enough to everything and still secluded. We enjoyed watching the hummingbirds feed and listening to the creek running while sitting on the porch for morning coffee. I am looking forward to going back.

Nc rafting trip 2021
It definitely is in a remote location! You have to cross a stream with your car in order to get to the cabin so be sure you have a vehicle that will handle it. Cabin was equipped well in the kitchen however, there was no soap in the bathrooms and we could not find a cutting board anywhere so we bought one (didn't want to cut on counter tops). Plenty of dishes and cookware (more than average). The hot tub was a nice addition and I thought that I would not like it since it was so far away from the cabin (not on porch) but it was located right by a running stream and it was actually a joy and a perfect spot. However, the chlorine tablets dissolved way before our trip ended which made using risky (i got a urinary tract infection). All in all, it was a great visit and the hike to the waterfall was rigorous but worth the hike! Nice location for a cabin

Great Cabin by a Creek
With the windows open, you can hear the relaxing sounds of the creek down the hill. The large porch with a mountain view is the perfect place to have your morning coffee. The property was exactly as described. The hot tub was clean and ready to go when we got there. We did a few excursions through Wildwater that were about 20 minutes away. This was the perfect place for my family. We even had a flock of turkeys swing by for a visit.

Peaceful slice of the Smoky Mountains
What I'd love to tell you is that this place is awful, because I don't want anyone else to find my new favorite slice of heaven. But, I cannot. We absolutely enjoyed everything. Period. We slept well, relaxed, explored and had the most peaceful vacation than we've ever had. We hope to come back many more times in our lives.
I would like to warn you about one thing. When they say that the last few miles up to the cabin is rugged, they are not kidding. It's rough. It's a little scary. Do not take this lightly and be careful. But once you are up there, you'll understand why you did it. There's silence all around you. It's amazing. Simply heavenly...
4.6
not impressed
carpet in the master was very nasty with pee stains and dirt. the rug in the main bath was nasty and stunk so back I had to put it outside on the porch. Having to do dishes not a problem but having to put them up was not good. stripping the beds not good. the money just to rent should include all of this. Motels and other cabins include this.
all this said we will not have a return visit.
4.6
Beautiful vacation
The cabin was spectacular! Couldn’t have asked for anything better. Would definitely go again

Beautiful scenery, peace and quiet! Kid and pet friendly!
We had a wonderful week staying in Fox Run Cabin.
The cabin is off the beaten patch, and you have to navigate windy mountain roads (very choppy gravel the last mile or so) to get there. Its 20 minutes to the closest grocery store. However the beautiful scenery and peace and quiet (minus my yelling kids and barking dogs!) is absolutely worth it. I have not seen so many stars in a long time!
The cabin is well equipped, and has all the conveniences you need. We had no cell service at all (AT&T) however there is very reliable internet, so we were able to use wifi-calling, whatsapp etc. If I may make a recommendation which would make the cabin even better ... gating the porch.
Ron was easy to work with, and responsive to my messages.
Ron, thank you for sharing your cabin with us! Thank you especially for allowing us to bring our dogs whom are an equally important park of our family. (They had fun too!).
Ps: Renters, please be considerate of others and clean up after your pets. I scooped at lot that was uhm old, and not from mine!
