PLEASE READ!

Before you pack up and head to the mountains, know that when we say mountains, we really mean it!
Dillsboro NC elevation starts at 1,975 feet. Think of this as your starting point. If you want to get a beautiful mountain view, you gotta climb some mountains. Mountain roads are typically gravel, steeper, narrower and curvier than you may be use to driving. This is all part of our charm.
We do have one big hill to get up. It is gravel. We regularly drive a Hyundai Sonata up. While AWD vehicles make everything easier they are not required. Maintain an even speed (10mph) going up and you should have no issues.

*******No refunds will be given due to weather.*****

Items NOT provided: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, items of a personal nature. We do supply hand soap, dish soap, and starter laundry items.

Please note this is a SMOKE FREE property. Ashtrays are provided outside on the porch. If the home smells of smoke, you may lose part or all of your damage deposit for additional cleaning & odor removal.

*****This property is located off US 74 in a curve. You will hear road noise while outside. While it is not obtrusive it is noticeable, but we think the convenient location makes up for this.

*****This is a DOG friendly property, however we ask that you bring a kennel for your pet if you plan on leaving him/her alone at the house. We do charge a $45 non refundable fee for bringing your pet. If you are bringing your pet YOU MUST select the pet option at checkout. If you do not it will be taken from your damage deposit. DOGS ONLY

Couples getaway with dogs

Loved this little cabin! Very clean and the perfect amount of space for us and our 2 dogs. The driveway is definitely steep but we just followed the tips the host gave and had no issues getting up or down. Great location in between the towns in the area and very quiet area for at night when in the hot tub, very relaxing. So glad we chose this cabin.

Mountain Gem

We loved our stay @ the little house on the mountain. It was very clean & the location was good for us. Its perfect for a couples getaway, we didnt cook except for grill cheese & BLT's but the kitchen has everything you need. Plenty of places to eat within 20 minutes. Lu Lu's was a great spot for dinner. We would definitely stay here again

What a lovely cabin

This may be the tidiest place we’ve ever stayed. It is a cute, comfortable A-frame cabin that has everything you need - including a hot tub! - for a nice and relaxing stay. We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO properties and I believe this is the first that has a fully loaded spice rack. That and the grill and a very nice deck will give you an opportunity to make and enjoy a fine meal. We would absolutely stay here again! The very short road to the cabin is a bit rough but the cabin driveway is paved so getting your stuff in and out of the cabin will be easy. We highly recommend this home!

My wife, daughter, and I spent a week at the cabin and found it to be as advertised and overall a great location. It's centered between Bryson City, Cherokee, and Dillsboro which made everything very accessible. The property manager was very responsive and offered some great insights into the area.

Amazing Anniversary Trip!

We booked this cabin for our wedding anniversary and we couldn’t have been happier! The place was SO cute and just like the listing. Really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit and was the perfect size for my husband and I. Super great location near the Smokey Mountain Railroad, Harrahs Casino, and near some beautiful hikes to waterfalls. Leaves were beautiful with all the surrounding mountains. Also enjoyed some amazing food. (Circle H and Haywood Smokehouse BBQ). Can’t wait to come back! :)

Beautiful Cabin/Night Sky Views

The cabin was beautiful, with high ceilings and lofty windows. The fire pit was perfect for the evenings, cozy and well placed. The night sky was gorgeous, a huge expanse for viewing with little to no light interruptions. The driveway is steep but paved, we had no difficulty there. Lastly, the cabin is 10-15 min from Cherokee, the Great Smoky Mtn National park, and a couple of small, cute downtowns. Wonderful place, wonderful stay!

Exactly what I needed

Cabin was clean and comfortable. Loved the setting, and close to attractions, yet I just came to get away. I had a great time and even chose to stay another day. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Just be careful if your car is very low to the ground as the driveway is steep. Even if so, there is parking at the bottom of the driveway you can choose instead. I can't wait to come back!
