Great stay close to Sugar!!
Amazing little snowboard/ski getaway! If traveling at night, the road is a little sketchy because there’s minimal lighting so just be careful. Loved the text updates, the only complaint I have is because of receiving texts, I never checked my emails and had to drive back down (in the dark) to find the main office for entry into the gate. If this information has been in the text it would have been ABOVE a 5* rating!!

High mountain escape
My husband and I both fell in love with this cabin with it's AMAZING views and upscale yet very comfortable interior! The kitchen was very large and well equipped and the bed in the primary bedroom was very comfortable. The deck area was wonderful! We started and ended every day in the sparkling clean hot tub and the fire pit was a nice bonus too. We will definitely be back to this cabin!

Exactly what we wanted!
Great place to stay if looking for views and easy access. Wonderful sunset views, hot tub was great, even had a fireplace to warm up after a evening dip in the tub. Built in baby gates made it kid friendly. Had some black bear encounters so just be cautious of that for small pets and leaving stuff out but we actually enjoyed that part of nature. Our small dog stays next to us so not a huge concern just be cautious. Great stay!! I would go back for sure.

Great Hideaway
Enjoyed every minute of our stay. Well hidden but close enough to shopping and dining out. Home was as advertised, a beautifully crafted cabin fit for relaxation. Just sitting on the porch looking at the miles of view across the mountains was all you need, but there is always the hot tub. And, for a little excitement a visit by the local bear family! A wonderful week!

Best fall colors we've seen in YEARS!
We lucked out with our annual fall trip to western NC this year! The colors were vibrant and fabulous. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the gorgeous long range mountain views from this home. We found the owners mattress VERY uncomfortable, but we sacrificed our comfort for the treetop views afforded from the loft. We enjoyed the hot tub and the gas fireplace daily! We couldn't figure out the fire pit, unfortunately. DON'T rely on Google maps to get you there!! Our Google GPS told us to turn left off Fie Top one street too soon, and we went all the way to the top when it announced "you've arrived at your destination". VERY LITTLE room to maneuver and turn our beast of a truck around, and it was at the end of a very long travel day. NO FAULT of the host, but I recommend including written directions so no one else has to endure what we went through ;-) Host provided excellent communication about internet issues that were to be resolved during our stay. Home was well equipped and we enjoyed our stay!

Family Visit to the Smokey Mountains.
The view at this property was absolutely gorgeous and the cabin was very nice. We loved the location because it allowed us to go hike each day at the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. We loved the hot tub and the way the cabin was decorated. Our family loved the presence of bears and the “cabiny” feel. The master bath had a really nice shower and the beautiful view from the loft brought the best sunrise view I have seen.. We rated this cabin a “4” because of two problems. We needed to use Wi-Fi for my son’s college work. It was advertised as having Wi-Fi which helped us make the decision to stay here. After two attempts to communicate with the property manager to have it fixed we gave up and found a place in town for my son to finish a paper. The property manager never checked back or apologized when we said it had not been fixed as promised. This was inconvenient and cost us time that we could have spent doing something else or getting to relax in the cabin. Also, the mattress on the master bed was very uncomfortable and had a huge depression on my husband’s side. My daughter’s mattress was stiff and very uncomfortable. If these two things were fixed it would be a “5.” But, for us, without a comfortable bed we didn’t sleep too well after the long hikes. We would try this again if the owners replaced the mattresses. For the price a good comfy bed and Wi-Fi should have been included as advertised.

Great Location, Great View
We wanted somewhere quiet to get away from the city and this is perfect. Only one other home on the gravel road leading to the house. There is a large porch with an amazing view, hot tub, and fire table. The kitchen is large, well equipped, and clean. There are options for eating at the breakfast counter, round top dining, and picnic table on the porch. The bedrooms each have a dedicated bathroom and closet and the beds are comfortable. Loved the place and didn't know much about the area before we arrived, but it is really cute, comfortable, and all the people are friendly and welcoming

Very quiet location but a short drive to Maggie Valley. A good location from which to explore the Great Smokey Mountain National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
