Very large, beautifully decorated, very clean. Everything looks new. Has everything we needed for our stay. Short drive to Bryson City which has many good restaurants. Drive up to the house on the first night was a little tricky in the rain and fog, but no problem after that. Would highly recommend.

Perfect mountain escape. Gorgeous property that is close enough to everything for convenience but far enough away to get a nice break. Loved the deck and hot tub-amazing views! Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful home, very clean and well kept. Same town for shopping & some nice places to eat, although we are in most of the time, porch setting was very serine, birds chirping, squirrels climbing in trees. Beautiful view, some of the trees could have been topped for a better view of the mountains. We celebrate our friends 37th anniversary & his birthday. We also toot the train to Dillsboro& shopped, time was to short for shopping all the shops. Was told train the opposite direction was much better. Differently will come to Great Smokies again. Love the town of Cherokee NC.
