Getting lost cabin getaway
The Cabin was perfect. Clean and stocked with some essentials. Firewood available for the fire place and fire pit. Be prepared to get groceries before you arrive as this cabin is very remote. We had no cell service for 8 miles surrounding the cabin. Getting inside was a little difficult as the key pad didn’t work and no cell service. We had to drive back out many miles to call and get the key code. Owners were wonderful. If you want to get off the grid and get away, this is your place.

A break from chemo to a wonderful mountain cabin
My mother has fought cancer for the last few years. This year it came back in her lungs. She took a couple of weeks off from treatment to give her body a break and relax. This cabin provided the most perfect place for her to rest and enjoy the mountain air. Not to mention my father and I are lovers of the mountains as well. Dan and Shayla were the perfect hosts, great commutation and very kind. The cabin was beautifully decorated and clean. We had a fabulous stay.

Hidden gem
My soon to be and I stayed four days at this beautiful and quite hidden mountaintop cabin with the intent of searching nearby areas to get married and hopefully eventually move to. That being said,we did not get to enjoy the cabin as much as we would have Liked. The limited time we were there was absolutely beautiful

Old reliable
We have stayed here mutiple times. If your looking for simple, peace, and privacy this is your place. Very easy to work with owners whom always are open for questions. Dont freak out with no AC. I am a florida boy and several years ago I stayed in the summer and saw no AC. Just open the windows and let the mountain do its job. They have a few fans and its more than comfortable in the evenings. Prettiest road in western NC is Wayah road which you take if going west off the mountain. Bryson city, Murphy, Cherokee, Franklin, Dillsboro is all relatively close. Great cabin!

Sweet serenity
My family and I enjoyed this private little cabin very much. It gave us some wholesome experiences and wonderful memories to treasure! It was truly beautiful and peaceful!
The location of this cabin is perfect. Groceries are 25 minutes away and horseback riding, awesome hiking trails (e.g., Wesser Bald), and whitewater rafting are 15 to 30 minutes away. The owner was responsive when contacted and was kind to provide plenty of towels, soap, paper items, cleaning supplies, and so on so we didn't need to purchase such items. You will need charcoal for the grill, but the cabin is stocked with the rest of the essentials (e.g., pans, plates, cups, etc.). There was some dust built up in some areas, but the cabin was mostly clean. There is no AC, but the air was cool enough.
The driveway can be a little nerve racking, even for people like us who have years of experience with challenging mountain roads. We were informed by a local fireman that he has had to rescue people on the driveway, mostly in the winter, who tried backing up on the driveway and drove off the side of the mountain. So, if you choose this gem of a cabin, do not back up and do not try to park at the barn. Stay to the left, keep driving until you find the cabin, and maybe consider bringing an AWD or 4WD vehicle (I can't imagine trying to drive to the cabin in the winter without AWD/4WD). The driveway takes about three-and-a-half minutes to navigate at a safe speed (two-and-a-half once you get the hang of it).
