About this house rental

The Happy Appalachian mountain cabin on Birch Trail is overlooking Tobacco Branch Valley and a beautiful mountain lake. Take in the view from the deck or enjoy a wood burning fire or a soak in the hot tub while relaxing from the day’s adventure. It is only minutes to Lake Fontana, Nantahala whitewater rafting, Tsali mountain bike trail system, Cataloochee Ski Area, the famous Dragons Tail motorway, Harrah’s Casino, Smoky Mountain National Park and the quaint mountain town of Bryson City.

This Tobacco branch retreat has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths with all the amenities you need to feel right at home, including a full kitchen and a gas grill. Three TVs and an XBox One with several games for all ages are perfect for relaxing day in. Rental includes access to the community lake with dock and pavilion, excellent for fishing and swimming.

The owners of the Happy Appalachian welcome bikers, however there is about 1/4 of a mile of gravel road, with an incline, to get to the cabin. In addition, the paved driveway is fairly steep.

Our stay started out with not being able to get into the cabin because of a lock malfunction, but once inside we found a pretty nice little cabin although not the cleanest we have visited in the past, it has issues that needs to be addressed like some pretty week looking boards on the deck, grill has to be light by hand, no ac in the living room area, not enough bathroom supplies, no dish towels or dish clothes that we found, had a couple bathroom flushing issues, could not get the washer to work, it filled with water but that's all it would do. I rate the cabin itself a 8 out of ten and the amenities maybe a 6 out of ten, although we had a great time just visiting with family.

This home was the perfect size for our weekend with another couple, and the location was great. The property has so much potential that doesn’t seem to be taken advantage of. Upon arrival, we had issues with the door lock, when I contacted the host about my husband replacing it, she was contacting the property manager, and we never heard back. The house seemed clean enough, but there were cobwebs in lots of places, and lots of lightbulbs out, a leaky faucet in one bathroom, and several deck boards are rotting. The driveway offers it’s own challenges, especially with a friend with a bum knee… We did enjoy the view of the ducks in the pond. Would definitely not say we wouldn’t stay here again. Just wish the owners would bring this charming cottage up to its full potential!

The house was gorgeous, and a great location! However, the house had a musty smell on arrival, the coffee pot needs to be replaced, the grill turn on switch was not working, the Wi-Fi password was different than the one provided, no cabin book to reference, not really any views due to the beautiful trees, and the neighbors were very unfriendly. Make sure you have four wheel drive for the driveway. Getting in and out was questionable the first day, but easier to achieve after the initial shock…lol. Overall the stay was amazing! The hot tub and fishing at the private lake was an enjoyable treat, and the views to all the locations were absolutely stunning!!!!

We had a lovely stay. The cabin was close to everything we wanted to see. We took advantage of all there was to do in the short week we were there. Smoky Mtn Railroad Moonshine train, ziplining at Nantahala Gorge and boat rental at Almond Marina. We loved the hot tub at the cabin and relaxing top deck. Driveway a little tricky.

This rustic home in the woods had plenty of space for our family of six. We loved reading out on the deck, and my husband caught several fish in the pond below. The hot tub was nice, and there is a washer and dryer in the attached garage. The narrow gravel roads and steep driveway were a little tricky, but we managed with a minivan. We did have an issue that came up with the house (due to previous tenants not following the rules.) Brooke was quick to respond and work out a solution that we found satisfactory. This house has games, books, movies, and a guitar as well as dishes and cookware. If you're staying more than a weekend, you'll want to bring extra toilet paper and soap.
