I take my whole family on vacations and this, by far was the best accomodations we have experienced. The place was clean, spacious, organized and fit our group(7 adults and four kids) perfectly. The view was out of this world and the covered porch was perfect for enjoying the view. The game room kept everyone busy in the evenings with pool tournaments and and the other games. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for preparing meals.

Beautiful family trip

We had a wonderful stay with our adult children and grandchildren. The house was very clean, well stocked, and family friendly. The views from the deck were outstanding. Plenty of space for a large group and a great base to visit the area. Tom answers messages quickly through the app.

Celebrated my son's WCU graduation

We had a large group of friends and family to gather to celebrate my son's graduation from WCU. We had 15 people comfortably stay in this awesome cabin. The deck in the back is HUGE and was a wonderful place to gather and share stories in the evening.

The Game room in the basement and the Hot tub on the lower deck SAVED us! 3 girls ages 9-12 were very entertained!! Even had 1 bedroom we didn’t even use!!! We will be back!!!

Beautiful Mountain House

This large mountain cabin is hidden in the Cowee Valley. It has plenty of room and the views are incredible. The hot tub overlooking the valley is the highlight as well as the game room downstairs. We highly recommend staying here.

Excellent Mountain Getaway

The cabin is excellent! The road to get there is a little steep and twisty, but that’s true about most mountain cabins with a view. The back porch was perfect. If we had been there in the summer, that’s where we would have gathered. We came with our adult children and my mother. There was plenty of space to be together and also to be apart. The basement game room was a huge hit. The “kids” connected their switch to the tv for games. There was also many games of pool, foosball and Pac-Man/galaga/burgertime. The long table in the kitchen was great for meals and board games. We also used the hot tub and fire pit. The one time there was an issue, the owner had it fixed in a timely manner. We hiked, went to Biltmore for a day, and just enjoyed the company. Great place, as expected, would definitely return!

Beautiful and quiet

We enjoyed our stay! The cabin was nice and peaceful. I loved the rocking chair on the back porch and spent a lot of time just sitting out there in the quiet and enjoying the view! The cabin overall was lovely and it was nice to stay there. Game room for the kids was what sold us on this cabin over many others! We don't have many complaints but I will list them if you are curious about what they were... but in no way would I say the cabin was bad. Beautiful cabin, beautiful view, in a beautiful town! We enjoyed it overall very much! We did have a few struggles and I will list them here in case you are interested: The driveway up to the cabin was very steep. ( I feel like that should be mentioned in the description. My mother called it a goat trail 😂). It was nerve-racking the first day till we got the hang of it after a few trips, ...but I literally said a prayer every time and hoped we didn't meet another driver coming or going opposite direction because there was only room for one car and no where to pull off and let them through ...and it would have been a nightmare to go backwards ( up or down!) to let them through. We liked that there were Plenty of towels and beds. I was able to wash towels and still have enough towels that were clean. The dryer needs servicing,barely dried and took forever. I heard our cook complain about the oven was very dirty. Some of the linen had holes ( blankets, towels, and the bed sheet) but didn't make them unusable. Cabin is all wood and ec
