Just wonderful. The husband and wife owner met us when we arrived to welcome us and provide keys. They live on the property. Both are very nice. We didn’t see them for the rest of the stay, and their house is far enough away to provide plenty of privacy. In fact, the house felt wonderfully remote despite being so close to a major road. It is a new build, and obviously very well put together. Everything you will need in the kitchen including sharp knives (I find the knives in VRBO houses are often very dull). The bedrooms and bathrooms are very clean. There is a very nice fire pit. My kids say that the WiFi only provides 4 megabits per second, which I guess is less than we have back home. But it was plenty of megabits for me. We had an amazing time and would definitely return if we vacation in the area again.

The host was amazing, very communicative and helpful. The location is as described, close to hiking, biking, fishing, and rafting. It's nestled in the woods with a steep and winding gravel driveway, a perfectly serene and tranquil place. I wouldn't want to navigate the driveway on a Harley, but most vehicles would have no problem. The kitchen and sleeping accommodations had all you could ask for. A gas grill. They even had a blender for my daily protein smoothy. There is a firepit, complete with chairs and wood. Plenty of room for all of us to stretch out, and come together for games or a movie. I loved my morning coffee in a rocker on the front porch looking at the squirrels and birds. The SmartTV was having challenges due to the internet service while we were there. A testament to how great Ray and Ann are, they bent over backwards to get it working, and ultimately the service provider fixed a bad line and it was back in business. There's so much to do in this area, and this home was a great launching point for our family!

We had a fabulous stay here. Within 1.5 hrs for day trips to Asheville, Gatlinburg, and Murphy. Easy drive to Bryson City, close to great hiking spots, but also pleasant enough to just chill and do some front porch sitting. Ann was very responsive to questions, check in and check out was easy. The house is clean, well stocked and beautifully decorated, we felt right at home. Driveway might be intimidating, but my minivan handled it with no problems ( I was worried by other reviews). We had Internet connection issues, but had good cell signal. We took time to relax read, and watched a DVD we had in the car. I totally recommend this place and would stay here again anytime.

If you like to be close to town but away from everything. This is the property for you. The owner meet you at the property to show you where everything is and answer any questions. I will recommend this to anyone who will be visiting the area.

The owners of this cabin make our experience extra special. The cabin was extremely clean, kitchen was fully equipped with daily needs, bedrooms extremely comfortable, bathrooms well supplied with linens and the washer and dryer was fantastic. The location was perfect and the Mountain View was beautiful and my grandson loved the fire pit for roasting marshmallows. We will be back for future vacations and highly recommend this cabin to family, friends and others looking for a great private mountain get away.

The host is very professional and friendly. My friends and my wife were very satisfied with this place. If the host has an Instagram tag of this place, feel free to let us know. We would like to add it!

The cabin was beautiful, clean, and very well set up for family stays: great kitchen, laundry, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, and just great facilities. The house is new and everything is in great condition.

As someone in a earlier post stated " the photos don't do it justice". This home looks like it's brand new. The dinner ware and pots and pans are better than my own. Ann and Ray met us when we arrived and are the nicest folks. They are the kind of neighbors you want to have.

My family and I spent our Fall break in Ray and Ann's cabin. They greeted us for check-in, gave us basic instructions for the house, and gave us suggestions for things to do in the area. They left their number with me should we have any issues or questions, making themselves readily available. The cabin was decorated so nicely for the fall, which was such a nice touch. The inside was very nice and very clean and the perfect amount of space for my family of five. The outdoor space had a lovely firepit, complete with firewood ready to go. My husband and kids enjoyed the long driveway for running around and riding bikes. The location was away from crowds but easy access to all of the activities in the area. I would highly recommend this cabin as a great spot to land for the family getaway in North Carolina.

Everything about this house was perfect! We stayed here two nights. The bed was clean and so comfortable. It was so quiet and just relaxing. The house is tastefully decorated and the setting on the mountain was amazing. The clean up check list was not over bearing and very simple when it was time to leave. We definitely will be recommending this place to family and friends. Pictures of this place do not do it justice. We were about 45 minutes from the Tail of the dragon at Deals Gap.

Ray and Ann were great hosts! The house was exactly as described. We were very comfortable and felt that the location was fabulous. Very easy access to out planned Nantahala Outdoor Center excursion as well as downtown Bryson City. Just wish we'd had more time to spend in town and relax more at the house.

Totally appreciate hosts attention to detail and ez communication from booking to leaving. Location is very convenient for us.

Clean, comfortable for family of 4. Great location, close to a lot of outdoor activities and fun!

Ray and Ann have a beautiful home in the mountains. The space was perfect for our family of six. It was close to fishing, hiking, tubing and other adventures in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Fontana Lake area. We loved the fire pit and front and back porches. The home was located in a more remote area than we expected, but it was an easy drive to gas, groceries and attractions. The steep, uphill gravel driveway is intimidating at first but is well maintained. We would definitely stay there again.

Ann and Ray were great hosts, very helpful and accommodating. Their home was beautiful and perfect for our trip. The location is quiet, secluded with a gorgeous wooded setting.. We really enjoyed and would definitely come back again.

Place was exceptionally clean. Very secluded. We were delayed on our arrival and they went out of their way to make sure we had access. Thank you. Will stay again.

We had six couples split between this property and another. Those who stayed here were very pleased with all that this property offered. Before our stay, Ray and Ann were quick to respond to any questions we had and very easy to work with. From the greeting we received from Ray and Ann, their thorough tour of the house, and the well-stocked kitchen, we had everything we needed! It was a very comfortable stay. I would highly recommend this property. It's a gem in the Smokies!

We had a wonderful week at this cabin. There were 4 adults and 2 kids and the house was perfect for us. The beds were comfy (my teenager also gave high marks to the futon), the kitchen was well stocked and the fire pit provided a nice way to end the evenings. We went hiking, tubing, horseback riding, gem mining and whitewater rafting, and the cabin is conveniently located to all of those activities. We can’t wait to come back!

This property is beautiful, peaceful, relaxing!!! The kitchen is stocked & we enjoyed grilling!!! Nearby things we enjoyed were the Deep Creek Park (went tubing) and of course the casino. We would recommend this vacation spot to all!!!

House was well maintained, clean and well supplied. Great location too, close to a lot of activities, we would stay again.
