Exactly what we needed for a relaxing weekend. Comfortable and equipped for relaxation.

We enjoyed our stay. The location was great for hikes along the Appalachian Trail and some of the NP trails. We stayed in late Oct and leaves were beautiful.

Charming and Peaceful... enjoyed unplugging. Hosts were more than gracious - they have amazing gardens across the way. Enjoyed Joyce Kilmer Forest, Fontana Dam. Drove Tail of the Dragon, and close enough to Bryson City to enjoy attractions there and that part of the Smoky Mountain National Park. finished our stay in the area driving the Cherohala Skyway... which was amazing... a great vacation!

A lovely, cozy historic home with all the amenities.. Hosts very helpful and knowledgeable. A perfect respite in a beautiful part of North Carolina.

The house was a great old farm house and very convenient

We had an awesome time! Property manager made sure we had everything we needed and was very easy to deal with throughout the whole process! Cottage was very cute and very clean. We live that area and lots of things to do!!😊

We immediately were reminded of each of our Grandmas when we pulled in. The place was so sweet and quaint! Everything was clean and the decor was so charming. We really enjoyed our vacation. This cabin was well equipped with everything you need for a get away. The owner Sandi was so responsive to any of our questions. The creek noise will lull you to sleep.

Sandi's cabin was a good choice for our Tail of the Dragon trip in the corvette. It's only 30 minutes to Deal's Gap and 20 minutes to Robbinsville that has a very nice grocery and some good options for dining. The cabin is updated, decorated very nicely.and equipped with everything we needed to make our stay wonderful. It is easy to access with paved roads, not far off the highway. Sandi was a very attentive hostess making sure we had what we needed and available to answer our questions. If you want more than just gorgeous scenery and peaceful surroundings, Bryson City is only 25 minutes away with lots of attractions for young and older. Gatlinburg is about an hour for those wanting more action. We would definitely like to return! Thanks for a great stay!!

The beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. I would definitely stay here again.

Sandi was a great host. The place was clean and very quaint. I would definitely recommend. 5 stars.

My wife and I went to that area to do some hiking and this place was perfectly located!!! It’s a beautiful house and very well kept. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

This was the best place to stay! Sits off of a quiet paved road up in the mountains, with a babbling creek across the street and ducks. A nice porch to sit outside and drink your coffee or tea. Great hostess! The house is so cutely decorated. You will feel right at home. Hope to go back next year!!

Clean. Relaxing, beautiful.

We had a great time her. Lots of places to hike. Great house and southern hospitality! Easy check in and checkout. Owners of the Vrbo are very accommodating and are right across the street if you need them! Just like being at home!

Fiancé and I enjoyed our trip to the loan duck cabin! We came down for Miatas at the And this was a nice relaxing place to call home for the week, away from all the busyness over at fontina resort. The host Sandi was super friendly and gave us all kinds of great information about things to do in the area. We will definitely be coming back in the future!!!

Cabin was as advertised. It was clean, cozy, welcoming, and beautifully decorated. It’s close to two lakes and the nantahala outdoor center. Bryson City and Robbinsville are a quick drive for groceries, restaurants, etc. Sandi was a wonderful host and is genuinely interested in providing you with the best experience possible. We will definitely return!

The house was amazing. The moment you walk in it reminds you of grandma and grandpa's house. There are all kinds of interesting and eye catching little plaques, sayings and handcrafted art throughout the cabin. It is spacious and roomy enough for a mid sized family. And pet friendly too boot. Our fur babies had the best time sniffing around the property. Sandi, the owner, is a very kind and gracious hostess that really wants your stay to be perfect and enjoyable for everyone. There is a fire pit for evening get togethers. The stars at night are amazing. No light pollution so you see so many stars it is amazing. There are so many local attractions to see and Deals Gap and the Dragon's Tail are a short ride away if you ride your motorcycle. There is river rafting a short distance away. And miles and miles of curving and twisting tproads to enjoy. Plenty of lakes and streams if fishing is your thing. All in all, the cabin, hostess and adventures are all a trip to remember. Thanks again Sandi.

From the time of booking up to check-out, everything was seamless and simple. Sandi is an awesome host and the cottage was easy to fall in love with. My kids enjoyed the place and our fur babies had a restful time.

Relaxing stay. Felt great to kick back and enjoy the quite. The only noise was the ducks across the road but loved the ducks the property owner even let us feed them. Now the husband and I are planning on retiring in North Carolina. Humidity was low and was comfortable our whole trip.

We wanted to get away for our anniversary and get away we did! This place is amazing. Clean, beautifully decorated and welcoming. We spent the majority of our time just relaxing and enjoying this space. Meeting Sandi was great. She assured us that had any problem that may arise would be taken care of. Gratefully we had not one issue. Thanks Lails for your kindness. God bless!!

The house has a mountain feel and it is very comfortable and clean. My sons and I enjoyed the front porch when having coffee and watching the ducks in the stream and talking about our days ride. The owners were very accessible and made sure our time at the Lone Duck was a good time and help us with all of our needs. My Sons and I have decided that this will be our place for all of our future Dragon Rides

The property was wonderful and private. The hosts are fabulous people who go the extra mile for their guests.

Enjoyed it very much!

This is a beautiful cabin with lots of room and all the amenities that we’re needed. The owner Sandy came over and met us and we thoroughly enjoyed that and her. We highly recommend this to anyone who would like to stay in that area. It is fairly close to most everything.

Simply an awesome stay! Everything we needed was there in the cabin. The property manager was fantastic, communicating before and throughout the trip, assisting even with sightseeing and information. The cabin was warm and absolutely perfect. Couldn’t have asked for more. Definitely planning a return trip!

I knew from the pictures that this property would be a wonderful place for vacation. However, pictures do not tell the whole story. This small house was full of sweet ambiance, as if a beloved family member was inviting you to come stay with them for a while. It was very cozy and homey with so many lovely touches in decoration and comfort. The beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was a fun space to work in. Everything, except food, was provided for our stay. Every contact I had with the owner was answered promptly and with the utmost care and helpfulness. It was one of the most relaxing stays we have had with Vrbo so far. There are fun things to do in the area, but we stayed in for the most part and just enjoyed the space. I highly recommend this rental!

We enjoyed this house and the surroundings and our host Sandi was simply lovely. Cozy place and very clean. We made s’mores and hiked and enjoyed the peace and tranquility of this area.

We arrived to a fully decorated for Christmas home. The upstairs was Perfect for the kids and seperation so the adults could Still hang out without waking them. There were so Many Amentities from grilling options to fire pit to outside seating and relaxing. Inside was a Warm fireplace , WiFi and all the necessities to cook any kind of meal. Perfect place for anyone to stop if they are in the area. And pet friendly. Our dog was happy too.

What an amazing experience. The Lone Duck cottage was more than we could have expected. From the time of arrival on Wed around 5:30 pm the lights where on and our home was a beacon in the dark. Thursday, we explored the immediate surrounding, prepared our meals and just enjoyed the day. Friday and Saturday we spent exploring the area and hiking, having fun, puzzles, attempted fishing and just being a family. On Sunday everyone wanted one more day and Sandy made it happen. I cannot even begin to tell you have wonderful our home was, the beds, the smell of the linens and everything. My nine year old grandson and I made the campfire and just had a blast. Thanks to Sandy for her wonderful home and the ability to just truly enjoy our Thanksgiving safely in her clean home and ability to eat all our meals at home so that we felt that we had socially distanced and stayed well. Blessed for being at the Lone Duck. Thanks you, Thank you.

We had a lovely time in this cozy mountain valley house. It was near areas for hiking such as the Cherohala Skyway, Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest and the Appalachian Trail in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We enjoyed the fire pit a couple of nights; we watched the moon rise on Halloween night and listened to the bubbling brook across the road. The kitchen is well supplied with everything you need to cook. We met Sandi briefly, and she is a very gracious host. She had the house decorated wonderfully for the fall. We hope to return for another tranquil stay soon.
