The house is on a mountain with a beautiful view and is private. Bring bug spray or something to keep the mosquitos away to sit on the porch at night. It takes about 15-20 min from the beginning of the neighborhood to get to the house. It’s a long winding road. Be careful of the wasps outside they were bad! My daughter got stung twice. The beds were not very comfortable and they need new pillows ours were flat. There was garbage left in the garage that stunk but was picked up the next few days. There was plenty of space for all of us. The kitchen was stocked with all our needs.

This was perfect for our family. Nicely furnished and very spacious. We liked the privacy of the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful spot for a relaxing nature rich vacation. If you are looking for a place to get away from it all, this is it. The roads are well maintained for such a secluded location. The view is beautiful!

This house had most everything you could need in a home away from home! Very nicely set up. We enjoyed our stay here and even the 115+ turns in the road to get up to it became a fun ride. The view from the deck was BEAUTIFUL which is what we were looking for, even though we didn't spend a lot of time at the house. I would stay here again if coming to this area!

What a nice Labor Day weekend we had in this lovely house. Plenty of space and privacy. Loved the deck and the view, firepit. We used the community marina/boat ramp to launch our kayaks into Lake Fontana. Had a great day. Also went to NOC right up road and rafted the Nanty. Fun was had by all. The only issue we had was with the front door. We had trouble locking and opening it. Could have been operator error? I’m not sure!

This was the ideal place for our big family and had a great view!

The view from the deck was absolutely amazing, even on a less than sunny day. The house was very clean. It was the perfect layout for our trip with one bedroom on each floor and each bed had it's own bath. We visited in our sports cars so we highly enjoyed the curvy mountain road to get to/from the house and appreciated the use of the garage. Would most definitely return. I bet the view is even more spectacular in the fall.

Great spacious home with mountain and lake views

This house was perfect for us: two couples with Mazda Miatas (convertible sporty cars) visiting to drive the Tail of the Dragon and other fun curvy hill roads. Therefore, the road just to get to the house was awesome for us and use of the garage was amazing. We had a great stay. The view from the deck was stunning, even on a cloudy/rainy day when we enjoyed a fire in the living room fireplace. The layout of the house, with one bed on each floor and each bed having it's own bathroom was ideal. There was one day when the internet was down - the contact responded immediately and monitored until it was restored. We would most definitely return.

Great property manager and good communications for get code and keyless entry. Mountain road to get to the house was a little bit scary, unlit curvy lane and a half 6 mile mountain road with off and on GOS made finding it a little tricky. Suggest getting there in the daylight. House was great.
4.7
This was a nice cottage/cabin with beautiful views! Location was great, really like the three levels with 3 bedroom/bathrooms on each. All rooms have very comfortable KING beds which was great! We did encounter some wasps in the home and too many leaves on the patios/fire pit area. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

We decided to rent this VRBO for our trip to Bryson City. It was very centrally located. We went to Cherokee, Bryson City, Sylvia, Asheville. We had a couple of older ladies with us and our stay was perfect for them since there is a bedroom on the main floor. The mountain road to the house was a little long, but we couldn’t have asked for a better stay! I would definitely recommend this one.
4.7
A beautiful place. Nice and quiet. Make sure you arrive before dark. There are a lot of driveways that are hidden and if not familiar with the roads it is a little difficult. Highly recommend this beautiful place. Wish we could have stayed longer.

What a beautiful place. The house was perfect for our 4th annual sibling trip. Fit us perfectly with the number of bedrooms and bathrooms
4.7
The view was incredible. There are 3 king sized beds, each with their own bathrooms making it very comfortable for 3 couples. We enjoyed the lake access and going to Bryson City for dinner. There is another rental home very close to this property but it appeared empty while we were there so no problems with noise. Overall, we were very satisfied with the experience.

A lovely stay, well appointed house

I requested a full refund as they did not get anyone out to repair throughout the stay. I ended up going to Vrob, Evolve, and the owner. In the end, I was refunded less than 1/2 of what I paid. Pitiful. When I informed the owner he said to me "Ma'am, I don't know how much you know about the mountains but people here work when they feel like it." THAT is why no one could look at the units!

Great views
House could have been cleaner. We had to deal with workers disturbing a hornets nest on the day prior to leaving. Luckily no one was stung but we did stay inside. Apparently the hornets are making another home below the upper deck.
Besides that the views were great! The forth echoed thru the mountains! We even enjoyed grilling and the fire pit even though it was very warm out.

Awesome getaway house!!
We loved this house! It was very clean and extremely well stocked. Worked great for hosting family. It was central to many fun things including hiking, the Great Smoky Mountain Nat'l Park, rafting, rivers, Fontana Lake and Bryson City. We highly recommend this house. It's also nice to have a separate living area in the basement for those who want to get some quiet. Great view off the back deck.

This mountain house was perfect for our family. Had there been snow or ice we
would not have made it up “the long and winding road” as we named it! Weather was great thankfully and location made it perfect for us to ride the train in Bryson City.
Great fire pit and grill. House could have been a little cleaner to our liking but overall a great experience!

This house was above and beyond what we expected! I would definitely stay here again. The house and setting are gorgeous, the communication was excellent from booking through our stay. The house’s level of cleanliness was #goals! We had a lot of sightseeing planned during the day but it was SO nice to come “home” at the end of the day, cook a nice meal and lounge on the deck watching the sun set. Stargazing was great on that deck too! Our only regret? That we didn’t have more time to stay!

This home offered just what we were looking for with spacious bedrooms with comfortable mattresses and linens. Plenty of seating for large group. Nice deck with gorgeous view of mountains. Only drawback was small living room TV, no local channels, only Netflix, available but couldn't use due to internet issues. We just enjoyed our music and and games for great family time. Home sits at top of mountain so drive from entrance is 4.5 miles up winding roads. Don't mind this? Then it's a great house for your next vacation. Very peaceful and quiet. Nice neighbors. Home has basement with BR and living area and private screened porch. Great for those wanting the most privacy. Cleaning service needs to be more detailed as we had many dead bugs, crayons, old popcorn in areas that were not swept. But rental service was provided excellent communication. You will NOT find this house on your GPS you HAVE TO use Google MAPS!

What a driveway
Our stay was great. The house is comfortable and has everything you could need.
The view is amazing.
The only caveat is there is a house right next door. The map made it look farther away but it’s close.
I’ve sent the info to my brother and his family in hopes we could rent both houses together next year. It really is a great neighborhood and house.

We went on this week vacation after pandemic. Could not ask for any better place to stay. Already working on our second trip there.
