The property is amazing. The communications were excellent start to finish. Decor and design elements were outstanding questions and thoughtfully created.We loved every element of our stay and will definitely stay again.Very minor recommendations.Evaluate cooking utensils, pots and pans for quality and everything needed to prepare meals.Property could use a thorough cleaning. However, we also understand how difficult it would be to keep such a unique place clean.LOVED THE PLACE!

The cabin is in an amzing location and the view is so breathtaking. Jillian was wonderful and kind at check in and Tom was helpful when we had a little hickup. It is a bit of a strange experience to be checked in by a person, and even though she was on the property we did not see her for the rest of the time. The cabin is located in a great spot with easy access to just about everything. The kitchen is a tight fit for more then two people but we made it work. The highway in front can be a bit loud but you only hear it from the bedrooms and it did not keep us up. There were plenty of supplies in the house. The only complaint we have about this place was the amount of dust and dirt. It is in need of a deep cleaning. I dropped my phone of the side of the bed and was shocked but the whole house is in need of being dusted/cleaned. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean but still dusty. There is a lot of stuff in the home as well, which can make it feel cluttered, lots of art and furniture and it is not a place I would have young kids I would be worried about something breaking. We would consider staying here again in the future.

The location is great and the property on the river is beautiful. But the area for guests is not 2,000 square feet. The owners area is the entire bottom floor and I think that is included in the square footage. As others have mentioned, the place is a little dusty and if you are sensitive to dust then it's probably better to look at other options.

10.0 / 10.0

Beautiful home, wonderful location, peaceful. We had a fantastic stay, being directly on the river was the best. The house is well stocked and Jillian the homeowner was wonderful. I would definitely recommend this VRBO!! Thank you for everything!

The owner said she was leaving on Monday but stayed the entire stay. We paid for privacy but did not receive it also the house is not at all accessible for anyone who has mobility challenges. Also, the owner only provides minimal TP, trash bags, and paper towels. Not enough for an entire stay.

10.0 / 10.0

Where to start! The house is amazing. Everything you need for a stay is supplied. There is plenty to do right at the house. The owner and caretaker are super responsive. The area is quite and peaceful with just a few miles to nearby Cherokee and Bryson City! You will not regret visiting!

8.0 / 10.0

Overall it was a good vacation spot nothing wrong with the manager or owner or cabin inside was clean outside was too for the most part. Few people who was there before us didn’t clean up after their dogs and fishing at the cabin wasn’t too good but it was in a good location to find fishing spots and close to Cherokee which was the two main points of our trip. Owner was friendly wish she had come and eat and drink with us while we were there but she was busy so it was understandable. Had a good time though and she said she planned to.add a deck over the river by next year which will improve the fishing.

This house is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The pictures do NOT do it justice. The decorations are very fascinating and give a true mountain cabin feel. The outside area, well that is just beyond words. A zen garden, a patio, a fire pit, horse shoes, hot tub. All with slate stone walk ways. The river is gorgeous. The train that runs across the river is a steam powered passenger train. We didn’t leave the entire time we were there for the 3 nights. Had groceries delivered by Walmart. Many family games. Kitchen fully equipped with place settings for 8. Gas stove, electric oven. The caretaker, Tammy, is amazing and very responsive. This home would be a great place any time of the year!! We definitely plan on returning in the summer.

Excellent location to Bryson City and Cherokee. We could see the Elk in the morning and the evening. It’s a beautiful drive to Gatlinburg! The cabin grounds are just perfect to sit by the river and have coffee in the morning or enjoy the hot tub in the evening. We couldn’t have been happier with the outdoor areas! And have a bonfire with the family at night. Just Beautifully landscaped!

10.0 / 10.0

My wife and I spent 10 nights at this property, waking up each day and enjoying coffee and a view of the river each day, It was probably one of the first times where we spent 90 percent of our time at the property. Will stay at the location again.

Terrible. Filthy house. Had to share basement with other renters of the house. Only front door enter and exit. Not safe. The cabin is very small. We left early due to safety reasons. I was VERY disappointed! The owner said she would reimburse me but lied about that too!

8.0 / 10.0

The property has a wonderful outdoor space beside the river. It’s very close to a semi busy road, so we had to keep our pet leashed at all times. My family does a lot of cooking, so the description of gourmet kitchen was definitely not correct. We had to purchase some frying pans that our food wouldn’t stick to. The owner and host were very responsive if we contacted them. theresponsive to any

What an amazing family trip we had at this cabin! Location is perfect! The river is so beautiful with the lovely sunsets!

We had THE BEST time here for my 41st birthday!! It snowed our first night there and it was so incredibly beautiful at the property!! The caretaker and owner were very helpful and responded promptly with any questions we had. The 2 wood burning fireplaces were amazing and we used them every day. I can't wait to come back in the summer and go tubing!! There is so much love put into this house and you can tell in all the details.

We had the best stay at this cabin! We came to ride the Polar Express, and the cabin made the weekend even more perfect! The owner was lovely and the care taker Tammy was always available to assist. The cabin is close to everything, and the outdoor area was spectacular. We cannot wait to return!

We have stayed at this lovely property over Thanksgiving two years ago so we knew the area and property well. We had a wonderful time this time! We used the firepit each night and enjoyed watching the river. Each day brought a new adventure as we toured Bryson City and rode on the GSMR to see the fall foliage. We also drove into the quaint little town of Sylva. So fun! Husbands fished each day in different places. The cabin is so nice - the only area that I would recommend is that the cabin needs a thorough dusting...also it would have been nice to know that there was only one shower available...other than that we loved it!

10.0 / 10.0

Had an absolute fabulous relaxing stay and highly recommend this rental. Our only complaints would be is that it could use a deep cleaning. Dust/cobwebs, torn screens, windows need to be cleaned as the view is amazing and outside Adirondack chairs need fixing. Those were minor compared to a wonderful stay. Tammy our contact was so helpful with any questions. Highly recommend and hope to go back again!

We stayed here with another family over Labor day weekend and had a truly magical time in this place. The pictures do not do this spectacular home justice. Every inch of the home has been thoughtfully curated using the finest materials seemingly weaving the nature from outside indoors. We loved sitting with the porch windows open in the mornings with a fire in the fireplace listening to the river . Our kids had a blast playing in the river every afternoon and the sound of the train across the way every afternoon was an added treat! Jilliane and Tamy were awesome and so welcoming. The house is conveniently located near waterfalls and day hikes and other charming mountain towns. I would highly recommend this beautiful home to anyone looking for a respite in this crazy world!

We have been staying in the Tuck during the summer as a family and paddling all the nearby whitewater rivers and playing around in the mountains. Easy location to getting around. The highlight of this house was enjoying hanging outside on the river during the evenings.

This property and cabin us ideal for a getaway to destress, decompress from the daily stresses and responsibilities of life. Our family fully enjoyed the firepit, river, hottub, scenery and cabin. I plan on renting again.

We booked this cabin to accompany my husband on a work trip. We viewed it as an extended vacation, and were excited to be staying on the river (we usually stay in Bryson City). Upon arrival, the caretaker greeted me and showed me around. She was nice, and it wasn't until we'd been at the cabin a few days that things started to reveal themselves. First, the cabin fixtures are extremely dusty. There were actual strands of dust hanging from the "canopy" of one of the beds. The first few days we ate out, and so it wasn't until day three that I pulled out some plates to find pieces of food still stuck to several of them. This was not something anyone could have missed had they checked. It was disgusting. I also had to rewash all of the coffee mugs. They had bits of dried on gunk stuck inside all of them. They advertised a "chef's kitchen" but I found that description to be very misleading. They didn't have any good knives. The few they had were very dull. Most were steak knives. What I think of as basic kitchen necessities were lacking. It was also surprising to find only four forks in the utensil drawer. The entire cabin is a good bit smaller than it appeared in the pictures, and my husband and I could not work together in the kitchen without being in each other's way. The dishwasher left a lot of debris after running, and there was a sandy residue on everything in the top rack. The dining table is very uncomfortable/inconvenient. The washing machine/dryer had a faint mildew smell. Almost none of the interior doors would shut or stay shut. The upstairs bedroom we slept in was very tight. You can only get on the bed at the foot as there is no space on either side. The cabin is also right on the road, so there is a lot of traffic noise. We never slept past about 6AM because of this. Also worth mentioning, the parking area is very tight. We have a normal sized pickup truck and it was a pain to get out or turned around each time we left. People drive very fast down that road, and it was a bit dangerous pulling out of the drive due to limited visibility. The outdoor area and firepit were a plus and we enjoyed the peaceful river, when we could hear it over the sound of the vehicles flying by. I don't usually write reviews, but we were really excited to stay at this cabin, and it was without a doubt the worst cabin we've ever rented. We considered complaining, but we realized there must be a reason they say in the listing "no refunds".

10.0 / 10.0

Picked this VRBO specifically because of everything there was on site; the river, comfortable family seating, hot tub, outdoor rec areas. It was a dream. The home was charming and well appointed and communication with the host was easy and very efficient. We traveled with our 3 kids (all teens) and there was enough room for everyone to retreat when needed, and so many options for gathering when we were hanging out. Loved the location to the Smokies, other area towns and grocery stores as well.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It was so beautiful, couldn't ask for a better location! Everything was perfect! We enjoyed all of the outdoor areas, the hot tub on the river is just amazing. Loved the wood burning fireplace inside, that was truly wonderful. The whole cabin is decorated so cute, I just loved looking all around at everything! We plan to go back in the Fall. Highly recommend!

We just stayed here this past weekend for our wedding weekend, and we absolutely loved the place! The cabin has so much character and is so cozy. We loved waking up to the views of the river, it was a gorgeous way to spend the morning. Tammy (the property manager) was so responsive and easy to deal with. We loved it and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain weekend!

This house is above par of the usual VRBO houses I’ve stayed at. The extra detail, care, decor, outdoor atmosphere is all geared for a 5 star vacation rental. Both owner and house attendant (if needed) were available 24-7 and were extremely kind. After a very busy summer - my daughter met us here and we literally just stayed on the property. We cooked every meal, went tubing down the river, sat in the river, enjoyed the outside atmosphere, and played card/board games. This is definitely a house I would Vrbo again. Thank you for sharing your home!!
