The driveway was a bit daunting with a motorcycle but doable. Lovely cottage, very clean, amazing view. We are already talking about returning next year.

Great cabin very clean and beautiful views of the mountains

We had a great stay. Drive up was great and easy to get used to. Nice that we were close to a couple small towns for groceries and exploration! Very relaxing vacation.

By far the best cabin I’ve stayed in. Extremely clean, no drafts or bugs. Perfectly laid out, spacious yet cozy. The downstairs has its own little private master bedroom oasis! With private hot tub access. Once kids are tucked away and asleep upstairs, time to make a drink and go downstairs to master bedroom with own private fireplace and private access to the hot tub. The kids loved making a fire outside and sitting around the fire pit! We only stayed a weekend but I feel like I was able unwind and relax enough!! I can’t say enough how much I love this place. This will be our forever cabin vacation spot. We can’t wait to come babk

We have stayed at several homes in the area for our yearly mountain trip but we both agreed this is the one we want to return to! The layout of this home is truly perfect for a couple or single family. The master suite in the basement is perfectly laid out for a romantic weekend away with the hot tub just steps away on the master suite balcony (also, the gorgeous view!!) and the spacious bedroom with super comfy bed, sitting area, and fire place. The bathroom is also so nice with a heater and large double shower. Truly so cozy even during a freezing cold weekend—many others we have stayed at have been a little drafty. The other two bedrooms are one on the main floor and one in the loft and would be perfect for other family/children but not nearly as luxurious as the master—so maybe not ideal for multiple couples because everyone would be fighting for the basement master! I can’t emphasize how stunning the view here is! The trek up the mountain is so worth it! We will be booking again next year! The only issue we had was the smoke alarm sounding whenever we used the oven—even when there was no trace of smoke. But it was only a momentary issue! Dawn has clearly kept this home with love and attention and it shows. We loved it here and you will too!

My wife and I brought our two teenagers for a family getaway and we had a wonderful time. The cabin was beautiful and spacious with plenty of room for the four of us. We spent a lot of our time in the huge basement master suite as well as in the hot tub! There was nothing that we needed which was not provided, and we hope to return again next season.

Gorgeous view...cabin was clean and well stocked with all your needs..Host and management went out of their way to accommodate us...The host responds quickly to all my concerns and in great detail..would definitely rent again..we all enjoyed our stay!!

My wife and I took our 12,14,15 year olds to the mountains for a change. The cabin was cozy and welcoming. The only thing not 5 star, we found some dishes that weren’t very clean. Not a big deal, we’re adults and washed up the couple things before we used them. The view was amazing, seemed like the mountains changed colors constantly, never seemed like the same view. The drive up was an adventure the first time, after that its pretty fun and you get used to it. Location is convenient to everything, 15-20 minutes you can be to restaurants, the lake, trails, and multiple rivers! The cabin had everything we needed for a week in the mountains. Beds were very comfortable, our oldest stayed in the main floor and is begging to find the same comforter to get one for home!

A challenge to travel the access road but nice views.

The whole process went smoothly. The place all they said it would be.

The panoramic view was magnificent! The road getting to the cabin however was a bit nerve-racking. Heed the warning-do not go by gps-we took a wrong turn. The cabin was very accommodating. The loft was beautiful and the suite on the lower level was amazing! Loved the fire place!

Rented the cabin to spend some time in the beautiful mountains with our son and his fiancée. The weather was mostly perfect and we really enjoyed the magnificent views and the starry skies at night. The beds were super comfy and I loved the layout with a bedroom/bath on each of the 3 floors for privacy. The master was perfect with our own fireplace! We cooked breakfast/dinner for the 5 days and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare the meals. Hot tub and fire pit were awesome! Would definitely rent again.

Our family can’t say enough about this property. The location was so peaceful and the views were amazing! The cabin was perfect for reconnecting yet spacious enough to allow for individual down time. The cabin was very clean, updated and overall gorgeous. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Cabin was filthy. Mice were getting on the counter and in our food. Hot tub and dirt at the bottom and water was cloudy/dirty. Someone with long blonde hair obviously had stayed there prior because it was everywhere. I don’t understand how the previous reviews state the cabin was very clean. It certainly didn’t get that filthy overnight.

Super clean and well equipped/organized cabin. It was just the two of us for a romantic weekend but we will bring the kids back with us. Beds are nice. TV’s all work. Kitchen excellent. Hot tub worked well. We were delighted with the attention to detail and comfort all around. . Thanks Dawn!

Pros: soft sheets, very well stocked kitchen w/ lots of covered Pyrex, hot tub right off of nicely appointed master suite on bottom level, 2 showerheads in master suite, extremely clean and not tacky decor, decent paper towels provided. (Why is that so uncommon in rentals now?) Cons: faces due east so you only get to enjoy sunrises not sunsets, neighboring rental cabin is close enough to throw a rock and hit so you will hear people outside, water softener system can decide to do a backwash at anytime, (even 5:15am) and wake you up, fire pit is right off the road. Overall it is a well constructed home in a well managed, quiet neighborhood with a very pretty view. Just be aware of the “cons” listed above. If sunsets aren’t your thing and hearing neighbors won’t bother you, you will love it.

This was our 2nd Trip to Smokey Mountain Dawn. The first time we stayed for 3 nights. This time we stayed 5! We enjoyed as much or possibly more than the first! We look forward to next year!

Spectacular views. Very private even though there are neighbors.

The cabin was everything and more! So much attention to every detail that made this a perfectly relaxing, worry free vacation. We needed this time to regroup after a difficult year.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The cabin and property was exactly as described. Look forward to returning.

Gorgeous place to stay. Accessible to many areas in the Smokey Mountain region. It was very comfortable, clean and updated. You can’t beat the views from Smokey Mountain Dawn!

Stunning cabin and outstanding views!! Gorgeous cabin, well appointed, comfortable, hard to leave! Full lower floor for the master suite and hot tub... what a great place! 10min drive to downtown Bryson City. A bit of a harrowing drive up the mountain but it's paved and it gets easier each time... worth it for the view! Great price for such a big cabin with 3 beds and 3 baths and stunning views from both decks.
