This property has a gorgeous view. The place was very well kept and organized. I'd recommend it to everyone!

This home is beautiful. Plenty of room for all. Rented a pontoon and enjoyed several hours exploring Fontana Lake. Some of us chose hiking while others went shopping in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area. Overall we had a great time.

My husband and some friends of ours stayed for a long weekend and greatly enjoyed this home! It was very dog friendly but still very clean unlike some places we have gone to with our dog before. The host Robert was great with communication prior to our stay and posted very helpful check out instructions in his home that made everything very clear. The view was amazing and despite being more remote we had great internet access via WiFi.

Robert was excellent from start to finish, the cabin was clean and very well equipped. This was our second stay and we will certainly be looking to return next year.

This place was by far the best vacation home we have stayed. The view was phenomenal. I would recommend this place to anyone. Will definitely be coming back. The owner was fantastic with communication. Three families and each of us had our own area. Perfect!!

This year was our fourth trip to the Polar Express in Bryson City & our fourth cabin rental. I think we have finally found our forever rental! The cabin was very clean & well stocked with dishes & linens. All we had to provide for ourselves was food. We had a party of 10 ranging from 5 mos-74 years & there was plenty of space to accommodate everyone. The view from the back deck is absolutely breathtaking! The driveway was much less intimidating than we anticipated, even at night! We will certainly be staying again!

Breathtaking views of Lake Fontana and the Smokey Mountains. Beautiful cabin and our children (ages 18-25) were in awe of how awesome the cabin was. Plenty of room for our group of 8! Thank you Robert & Danielle for sharing your home with my family!

It was a wonderful place. Definitely will book again.

My wife and I and three other couples stayed for a week from 30 October to 5 November. We couldn't ask for a better location. The views were stunning with the lake and mountains as a backdrop every morning. We braved the cold mornings to watch the amazing sunrises and the light playing on the mountains. The sunsets were equally amazing. We loved the solitude and the chance to decompress and relax. We are already planning to return. I highly recommend a stay here as a perfect place to relax and enjoy the outdoors and nature.

Stayed at this location for a surprise birthday celebration for my mother. This was a perfect spot for a group of 5. So much space in the cabin. The pictures truly don't do it justice. We did quite a bit of cooking and everything we needed was there. But honestly the real star is the view! It's breathtaking. Words cannot describe how beautiful it is to look off the porch and see the lake and mountains.

This place never disappoints! This is our second year here and it’s just simply breath taking. Great hosts! Friday we hit Bryson City on the way in then 30 min drive to the house. Saturday we lucked into a harvest festival down the road. Then a 30 minute ride to Sylva and Dillsboro. Heck, we probably didn’t need to leave the house with all the games, darts and fire pit. We will definitely book again!

Our blended family was able to reconect and enjoy the property and each other. We enjoyed all our adventures and look foward to more of them.

This was our second visit to this lovely house. Quite, peaceful and a great place to relax and disconnect. Lots of private and communal spaces for a larger group. Love it there.

Beautiful, remote home with plenty of room for our family of 12. We enjoyed the large covered porch with a gorgeous view of Fontana Lake and the Smoky Mountains.

This is our third year spending our vacation at this property. The owner is professional, courteous, and responsive. We can't say enough positive things about the house or the owner, who continues to make improvements since buying the property. He has thought of everything for guests' comfort. Cooking and paper supplies are plentiful, and the house is always clean. The road was quite washed this trip but I believe, unless things have changed since I grew up in this area, that the Forest Service maintains it, so no reflection on the owner. And finally, the view was stunning, as always. That and the solitude bring us back for our R&R. Thank you for yet another wonderful vacation!!

The perfect cabin to unwind and relax. There is an amazing view of the lake and mountains that simply calms your mind. Each morning we sat on the deck sipping coffee, watching hummingbirds and listening to nothing but the slight rustling of the leaves in the trees from the birds and the breeze. Thank you for having a pet friendly cabin because our fur kids were enriched by the sights and sounds as well! And such a nice touch to provide sheets to cover furniture to protect from dog hair, scratches, etc. - brilliant and wish more owners did this! The cabin was very clean, tidy and organized. It is furnished and decorated in a very comfortable cabin chic style. The kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials and the bathrooms were clean. Robert was an outstanding host with thorough communication. We most definitely plan to book the cabin again and can’t wait to take in that view again! Thank you Robert and Danielle for sharing your home with us and providing an incredibly peaceful space to relax.

This beautiful cabin couldn't have been a better place for our family to gather. The views are breathtaking, the cabin was well equipped, clean, welcoming and the owners were absolutely amazing to work with!! I can't say enough good things about our stay! This cabin is a little slice of heaven that we were lucky enough to experience for a week! Thank you for the incredible memories!

Our family was super impressed by the property. The kitchen was the most well stocked of any vacation rental I have ever stayed in. The host was a very good communicator. The pictures don’t do this place justice, beautiful!

What an awesome cabin, very spacious for big families. Views were awesome and lots of things to explore!

We loved the location to ALL our planned MC rides in NC and TN. The house itself is better than expected and met all our needs. The setting is truly amazing, the pics don't really do it justice. Our favorite place to hang out was the back porch but this home offered so much to each member of our group, including the desinated burn pit and grill for steak, hamburger nights. If riding motorcycles, make sure your skill level matches the gravel slopes, but it's doable. Our last evening, I even witnessed a bald eagle glide over the lake right in front of us. Thank you Robert, Danielle and neighbor Ted for helping make our annual MC trip a success! We fell in love with the Smokey Mountains and hope to return some year in the future.

Six of my friends and I stayed at this property. It was exactly as described. It was very well stocked, plenty of beds and we used the washer/dryer to wash our clothes before we left. We rode our bikes from Texas and it accommodated us perfectly. We sat on the porch looking at the lake every morning drinking coffee, in the afternoon we would sit outside talking about the roads we rode that day. The only issue, and the owner told us about it, the last 1/2 mile is gravel road that can be very tight. Wasn't really a problem for any of us though. I will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful time during our stay at this gorgeous property. The layout of the house was perfect for our group. We were there for the weekend to celebrate our oldest son's graduation from Western Carolina and while the property is an hour away from the university, everyone in our group said how much they enjoyed the location. The house was immaculate on our arrival and had everything we needed to have a fantastic weekend. I think the ones who enjoyed the weekend the most were our fur babies who joined us on our weekend getaway. They loved playing outside and sitting with us around the fire pit. I give this beautiful cabin a 5 out of 5❤️

Robert covered every detail of the property in his preview. Once we arrived we were impressed with the thought and detail to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view was fantastic. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend this property.

Amazing location and brilliantly setup property, highly recommend to anyone considering staying in the area

To keep it short and simple, WOW. Pics and imagination will not prepare you for this home. Every detail has been considered, executed, and over delivers. My wife and I loved this cabin, all it has to offer and the wonderful hosts Rob and Danielle.

We had a journey to get to this home but once we did it was perfect. Extremely clean, well organized and had an incredible view. Robert (owner) communicated with us so well and could not have been kinder. The only issue was .........we had to leave. You can bet that we will be booking again.

Our family loved everything about this home! Beautifully decorated and well stocked! The pictures do not do the view justice! Many of our family members spent hours on the porch staring at the view. The house was perfect for our large group with plenty of room and the two separate living areas were great for those who wanted to watch two different things! We loved the master suite! The fireplace was a nice touch and well loved by us. Don’t hesitate to book!

The views are truly beautiful. And just about every window in the cabin has a beautiful view. Overall, our stay was enjoyable but there were several problems that occurred. With a large group, 12 people total, having working appliances is a very important factor. The stove worked but the oven did not function properly. Unless you placed items on the top rack they would burn, or you had to constantly watch them. We were going to have turkey for our Christmas dinner and obviously the turkey would not fit on the top rack. Thankfully, there was a gas grill and thankfully it was large enough for our turkey. The other issue was that the dishwasher did not clean the dishes...the pod was on the bottom of the dishwasher even though we made sure the lid was securely closed that held the pod. We tried several times. The other issue, which was the most important one is that the smoke detector was not working. It was making the beep they make when it's time to change the battery. We put a new battery in and it still did not work. This smoke detector was outside of the guest room and the hallway to the master bedroom as well as by the kitchen. This next issue is one that I should have contacted the owner as soon as it was noticed. One of the recliners stopped working...the foot would not go all the way down and the back would not move. No one was playing with the recliner they were just sitting and watching TV and when they went to get out of it is when it stopped working properly. We were told that there was a chip in the upstairs bathroom countertop. We were unaware of that being there. The owner is not happy that we did not clean out the fireplace and that we left a bunch of limbs around the firepit (which we were going to burn but it started sleeting and we could burn). We thought that the limbs could be used by the next occupants. On a positive note...We did appreciate that there was another refrigerator in the garage to use. We are the type of family that makes the best of the situations that occure. Again, our overall stay was enjoyable.

As an extended family we typically travel in a large group and have stayed at many vacation homes over the last decade. We ALL agreed that we have never came across a nicer property than this one. Extremely easy booking experience, thorough directions and check in information, absolutely gorgeous home, every detail is as advertised, and immaculately clean. The little touches is what did it for me..soft sheets, plenty of household necessities such as toilet paper, soap, and paper towels, loads of kitchen supplies and even a fully stocked spice cabinet, and BEAUTIFLLY decorated for Christmas throughout the property. We will without a doubt be back!!

Quiet, peaceful, beautiful

Charming cabin overlooking the lake. Ample room for everyone and well appointed. Basement was a great place for kids to play and the fire pit was a big hit for S’more’s! Owner communicated extremely well. All in all wonderful family memories were made! We would highly recommend this cabin!
