Awesome weekend getaway. Well appointed with everything you will need. Just bring your food. Super clean. Very comfortable beds. Very isolated, no one around which we wanted. Great hot tub, 10 minutes from Cherokee casino, about 20 minutes from downtown Bryson City. Will definitely return.

Harvest Moon

Very nice secluded property. Clean and comfortable. The only suggestion I have is to get better cookware and possible a few condiments. (garlic powder, onion powder). We like to cook while away on vacation and the qualifty of the pots and pans in this cabin were terrible. Everything else was nice.
