Reviewer Comments:
It was a delight to spend our two-week summer vacation in this lovely & spacious house. We especially loved all the comfy outdoor spaces, giving everyone room to spread out, enjoy the amazing views, take in the sun, relax in the shade, and relish our time together. We also had fun the downstairs game rooom, where our grandson beat everyone at air hockey! The house was very clean & well-stocked with everything we needed. The access was easy & it was just minutes to Waynesville, restaurants, the BRP, hiking, and all our favorite things to do. This was our second stay at Bird Song Lodge & we look forward to returning soon!

We had a great stay. The view and the fall colors were spectacular. Not being able to use the garage was an issue and we also found that the lighting in the bedrooms was not adequate for us.

This is the 2nd Thanksgiving we have stayed for a week at this cabin. The cabin itself is beautiful and well decorated. Last year it was pretty clean but this year we definitely had issues of overall cleanliness- there was mold in all the showers, frequent foul odor smells, and we dealt with numerous pests (spiders, wasps, roach/beetles, ladybugs galore). There were cobwebs all around the rooms. The cleaning and pest control really need to be stepped back up- we didnt encounter any of this last year. However, the home is beautiful and well stocked with everything we needed- the fireplace is fantastic and the neighbor with the playground was perfect for our family! We would definitely consider staying again if the above issues were resolved

We have always enjoyed this cabin. Now, it is full of cheesy, dusty decorations and taxidermied animals. It wreaked of mothballs when we arrived. There was a rotting jackelope head in the garage that someone had placed in a bucket of mothballs. The Christmas decorations were still up. The deck and furniture were covered in pollen. There was a large grease spill in the oven. The grill knobs caught on fire when we used the grill! There are two windows that will not close. The bath mats were dirty. Overall, it just felt like no one cared this time.

the cabin was beautifully decorated for Christmas! We were there for our daughters wedding at Chestnut Ridge in Canton NC. It snowed the day before but smoky mountain retreat made every effort to ensure that we could get up and down the mountain to our destination. Wonderful experience with both rental company and house.

The view from the home was amazing! The interior was beautifully decorated. There was easy access into the house for the elderly and handicapped. We all (from ages 6 to 91) appreciated all the amenities and had fun playing all the games. Hope to return to this property next year.
