We arrived Thursday afternoon to find this little gem in the Carolina mountains. At first look you wonder how this little cabin could sleep six people. Inside I was amazed at the setup. We had all that we needed and Anthony was on top of any thing we needed. We spent a day in Cherokee, another in Tellico, and also in Murphy. The steakhouse in Murphy is a must, great food and wonderful service. Head over to the Rare Bird Emporium for coffee and muffin you won’t be disappointed.
This cabin is soo beautiful the decoration is very mountain style. You can find everything you need to spend a relaxing vacation. It have..everything you need to spend your days.
Anthony and Stephanie respond immediately all ours calls to help us with our question. The Murphy town it have nice restaurants. Helen town it is almost an hour drive from the cabin. We had a good time in this place I definitely recommend it .
Loved it.

The cabin was extremely clean and well maintained. All the amenities were great. We really enjoyed the firepit and giant Jenna. The only thing this cabin needs is a hot tub!

Hi Cheri, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they would like to share the following:
- We have very high cleanliness standards for our property and are confident in the cleaning job that our team does. That being said, we've passed this feedback on so that these issues do not affect future guests.
- We make it clear on the listing that there are security cameras on property for the safety of our guests. We respect guest privacy and none of the cameras face interior spaces.
- We're sorry you had trouble with the door locks. A detailed description of how to operate these are included in the welcome email though we were happy to walk you through this when you called for assistance.
- We want all of our guests to find the perfect vacation rental for their needs, so we make sure that travelers know before they book that 4WD or AWD is required to drive up the driveway. We were in touch with you before your stay and let you know that, without these types of vehicles, you could also park on the street and access the home by a one-minute walk up the driveway.
- The fireplace has a built-in thermostat and turns off if the temperature gets too warm.
We truly go above and beyond for our guests, and we are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!
