Loved remote & wooded setting. House is perfect for able bodied folks or a couple with kids old enough to be safe using a ladder or incredibly steep stairs and comfortable sharing the 1 bathroom on upper level while bedroom is on lower level. Not suitable for two adult couples. Listing showed multiple bedROOMS & bathrooms but that info is for both houses combined. The listing was not specific. The beautiful little “hobbit” house has 1 bathroom and 1 bedroom. Other beds are thin spring mattresses on the floor in an alcove that an adult has to crawl in/out of or a loft with a ladder an adult could not stand in. Kids would love it. It could be ideal for gatherings but you’d need both places on this property. Fire pit area could accommodate a large gathering and is a beautiful spot, day or night. Linda was quick to provide extra blankets as the weather changed & answered all questions about local sites. I would return as I appreciate her effort to reduce our impact on the planet with the mindful construction of the little house. My companions with knee, hip, back or digestive issues would not, could not.

First Linda was great! She stayed on property so if we needed anything she was able to get it or direct us where to go! We brought Taylor our 11 year old Golden Retriever with us and he was the first to try out Linda's "Pet Bunk House" and he did really well in it. He has a bit of anxiety when we travel so this bunk house provided him a nice place to settle down. Originally, Linda planned the bunk house for a smaller animals (under 50 pounds). Taylor, who is 100 pounds had enough room to move around plus she provided him a nice cushion under the 4 foot raised queen size bed. The first two nights my husband and I stayed out in the bunk house just to keep an eye on Taylor. The third night, Keith stayed out in the bunk house and I stayed inside the house with our teenage girls and our adult son. Linda built the stone cabin with being "eco friendly" concept. It's has a small footprint on each level with a European flair to each level. When you walk in you are in the master bedroom and is very cool with the rocks for the floor and walls. It has a wooden stove and fireplace with the TV and DVD player. The stairs are near the front door which leads to the main floor. The steps are good not narrow at all and evenly spaced. The outside is very rustic with the stones and the 2nd floor inside is very warm with wood walls and ceilings. There are ceiling fans in the master bedroom and in the kitchen. The bathroom is the toilet and bath tube/shower. The sink is outside of the bathroom which worked well for us at morning and night. We stayed at the cabin the second week in July and we did not have to use the AC at all. We kept the windows open and it was perfect. The kitchen is well stocked but could use some bakeware. The stove and oven were a bit tricky to use because I have a gas stove at home. We played games at night and went hiking during the day. Linda was very helpful with finding trails Taylor could come on with us since the Smokey Mountains NP does not allow dogs even on leash. Overall our stay was very relaxing. The cabin is located between Bryson City and Franklin both are easy to get to through the mountains roads. Linda has awesome neighbors (Chris and his wife) gave us fresh eggs one night while we were walking our dog for his night time walk. We bought honey from another neighbor of hers and it is fabulous. Linda's property is so calming with the sound of the creek. Taylor loved to lay in it after a walk. I loved soaking my feet in

We had a great time. We love the accommodation. It was a great retreat away from it all

We had reserved the Eco cabin as well as the first level of house and Nature’s Rest Suite but did not end up staying at this property after the initial tour by the Owner. The accommodations had a musty/ mold odor to them and though the Owner said it was due to the rain the previous night, that didn’t seem to be the case. Also, be sure to know that the “rooms” as advertised are not all independent rooms. Some seem to be closets with mattress, with not enough headroom, one bathroom has no door but a curtain separating from sleeping areas, not sure if certain areas even adhere to code. The overall accommodations didn’t seem to be clean or well kept and we felt they posed a health/safety hazard. The owner did return us part of our money back since we did not stay but still ended up losing a chunk and the added inconvenience of trying to find last minute accommodations.
