Total Serenity

The cabin was very clean and beautifully decorated. Being able to hear the rushing water down below was amazing. The only issue was the bed was a little too firm for me and my boyfriend, but next time we'll just bring a mattress topper. Clint was awesome in responding immediately when we accidentally blew out the pilot light on the fireplace. After being in this cute, cozy cabin I can't imagine staying in a hotel ever again. We will definitely be renting this cabin next time we go to Cherokee, NC. THANK YOU, CLINT!! :)

When we got there, there wasn’t any toilet paper? We did bring our own thank goodness, but it would’ve been nice to have a couple of rolls when we got there.

Wonderful stay at this cabin!

Clint's cabin was perfect for our family of 3. It had everything we needed and was in the perfect location. Only thing that might have been helpful would have been more towels and rags in the bathroom and kitchen. We had 1 towel and rag per person for 5 nights and only 1 dish rag and dish towel in the kitchen for the 5 day stay, but we made it work with no problem. The cabin was spotless when we arrived. The elk in the evening across the street in the field were a wonderful surprise. I highly recommend staying here and look forward to returning when we can.

Fly Fishing Cherokee NC

I planned a three day fly fishing trip to Cherokee, NC, and the Appaloosa One Cabin was a perfect fit overlooking the banks of the Oconaluftee River. The cabin was as described, clean, easy to find, and well equipped. Clint was a super host, very attentive,and check in/out was easy. I will definitely plan another stay in the near future.
