Amazing place for respite and relaxation

This cabin was cozy and clean. The best part was the mountain view from the deck. I enjoyed seeing the deer that came from the woods almost daily and listening to the birds from the rocking chairs on the deck. This lovely place had everything anyone could need and I could definitely see myself coming back again.

GREAT place to get away. very clean and extremely comfortable. we drove in at night and woke up to a beautiful view looking off into the mountains. the road leading up to the cabin is steep but just take it slow and youll find the cabin perched on top of a hill. our family had a fabulous time and highly recommend this stay.

Blissful and Adventurous

The “Treetop Getaway” was the perfect home for our family of 4. Beautiful home with gorgeous views. We enjoyed the games, puzzles, hot tub, and outside eating at the house. Very clean and comfortable beds. We took advantage of several of the NOC adventures with our 8 and 10 year olds. Many great memories made!

Thanksgiving Trip

Location and view were nice. However the cabin wasn’t very clean (100+ dead lady bugs on the window sills and on the floor). King bed was also very uncomfortable. It was an older cabin, that needs a little love - a bit worn for our taste.

Nice Place, Nice View, lacks in privacy. 7.5/10

Overall the cabin was nice, in a nice area, with a nice view. however the listing failed to show the neighboring cabin. Not a 10/10 property imo. needs some additional screening between the hot-tub (which is in full view of the neighboring cabin) and the neighboring cabin. Considering that and with the owner requiring every fee imaginable, requests for background checks, and the overall cost itself, it gets a 7.5 out of 10.

Beautiful cabin in the woods

My husband and I celebrated our 13 year anniversary here with just the 2 of us. The views and little touches to the cabin makes you feel such at peace. Its very quiet. The drive up the mountain is a little scary at first but once you figure out where you are, its easy. Hot tub privacy screen is not very private with a neighbor directly behind you with a window looking out., we did not utilize the hot tub for that reason. The king size bed makes a lot of noise when you move or roll over at night. Overall this cabin was absolutely perfect. We did not utilize any of the free activities. We went hiking to Alum Cave and Clingmans dome. Highly recommend Kallisto, Jimmy Macs, Cardinal Coffee and Rivers End Restaurants. We shopped some in Bryson city. I would recommend this cabin to a couple for a romantic getaway in the woods or for a small family of 4. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It was within 15-30 mins of pretty much anything you needed. If we come back to this area, we would definitely stay here again. Check in and out was super easy with not a crazy list to complete before leaving. Highly recommend. 5 Stars *****

Gorgeous Hidden Cabin

This is a beautiful cabin hidden away on the top of a mountain. It's a gated community so there are other cabins and neighbors, but you will only see them occasionally, usually on the road coming in. Each cabin is separated by woods, but they are close enough to be within vocal range. This cabin has one next to it that is visible from the back deck. The neighbors were there for part of the week but we only heard them a few times. The hot tub and windows gave us a spectacular view of the mountains. We watched a breathtaking storm roll in over the valley. My only complaints are that the listing listed a DVD player as part of the amenities, but this is not there. Contacting management, they stated that previous owners took it with them. There is a smart TV so it was only a minor annoyance, but I prefer ad-free watching. The only other complaint is that the privacy screen at the hot tub does not feel like it is as private as it is supposed to be. It's a triangle shape that does not feel like it offers much in terms of privacy. Other than these things, this is a great place to stay.

The cabin was adorable and we enjoyed what little we could have the hot tub (due to the rain) We went out and explored. Would have given it five stars but upon entering there were so many cobwebs and spiders, in kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. We couldn’t enjoy the jacuzzi tub as it freaked me out. Overall it was a great stay! We will return, but will heavily insure that the cleaners come the day of or day before for cleaning.

Best Weekend Ever!

We absolutely loved everything about this cabin. Everything was clean, the view was beautiful, and the cabin was adorable. The only negative thing I can say is the sheets were too stretched out and we had to keep readjusting the fitted sheet. But that's an easy fix and we would come back again in a heart beat!

This is a great 2 bedroom 2 bath home. It is fully equipped plus has a whirlpool tub and outside hot tub. The management company is proactive and reached out to make sure we got settled in and all is well. I would stay here again. If you have a lowered vehicle, come during this day time to avoid any scraping on your car’s underside. We were able to make it to the driveway without scraping.
