Love this property

This was our second stay at this house. It was just as beautiful as we remembered it. It is the perfect location to disconnect and relax. The kids loved exploring the river and the adults took advantage of the deck. The owner is very responsive and accommodating. Couldn't ask for a better spot.

The section of the Piney River this home sits on is amazing. Walking out the back door to the sound of the river and sitting on the deck with the tranquil views instantly put me into a trance. I will return.

In the pines, on the piney river

This lovely little cottage on the piney river was the perfect place to celebrate 35 years of marriage. The setting was beautiful and the accommodations spacious yet intimate. The cottage demonstrates an obvious history of love and good memories. We fished the section of river assigned and got skunked. The beauty of the setting was more than compensation for this disappointment. The owners have set up a welcoming, warm and friendly vibe that made it a pleasure to stay at Sycamore Shade. We would like to return!

Lovely home with cleaning issues

Lovely location and home with comfortable beds. But very dirty on arrival-- muddy paw prints on interior doors maybe from the last guest's dog, pubic hair in showers, refrigerator filthy with enough dried on food spillage that the condiments left by previous guests were stuck in place. Kitchen drawers and cabinets had crumbs and stuck on food. Droppings in kitchen under sink and in corners. At one point, removed sofa cushion looking for misplaced remote and found popcorn, dried out candy, food wrappers and dirt. Judging from other reviews, this wasn't typical, so you may have better luck.

Mountain Getaway

The property was perfect, definitely as listed, well cared for, secluded and serene. Kitchen had all accessories needed for a variety of meals. The river has a very small rapid in front of the house providing great river sound. It is in the mountains, no cell service and grocery store 20 minutes away, bring everything with you. There is WiFi and a Keurig. My family group included a 12-yr old and 6 yr old twins. We did not leave the property, (other than hiking) and the kids were outside more than 6 hours every day. The property was a place of discovery for them, river in front, hills to climb behind and finding the ceramic forest friends the owners have hiding around the property. Fire pit and s'mores. It was fall and the foliage was great! Introduced the kids to wax paper leaf ironing.

Wonderful home in a beautiful setting! Very comfortable beds and excellent amenities. Pleased that there’s wi-if now!
