About this cabin rental
Summary:
FOX RUN CABIN - RARE FIND WITH A CREEK AND A VIEW! AND YOUR OWN PERSONAL WATERFALL ONLY ABOUT A HALF MILE HIKE UP THE MOUNTAIN CREEK!
The Space:
We knew we had found a treasure the first time we saw FOX RUN. We immediately fell in love with it's naturally peaceful ambiance. In fact, we loved it so much we decided to purchase the property and share it with others from all over the world.
The minute you pull into the driveway at Fox Run you will view it's comfortable setting nestled down in front of a gorgeous mountain view. As you step out of your car you will hear the sounds of the rushing creek that streches the entire length of the property boundary.
Upon entering the cabin you will immediately notice the fine natural cherry floors, pine wood construction and the sweet wood aroma that you would expect in a custom hand built mountain cabin. It is open, airy and spacious. It is truly a gem.
Fox Run is undoubtedly one of the most popular cabins available for guests who want to come and enjoy the wonders of the Great Smoky Mountains!
It's so peaceful... Shhh!!! We've been told that God lives there. We're pretty sure he does!

Beautiful and peaceful cabin in the mountains! Loved the extra Christmas decorations for our holiday stay. Had everything we needed and then some. Felt like a home away from home. Excellent owner communication. Would love to stay here again!

Cabin was exactly as described. Pictures do not do it justice. The sound of the creek and constant running creek was so soothing while slipping hot tea on the porch. Our mother loved this trip because of the seclusion and the Mountain View. The host was super responsive. Beds are comfy and kitchen has everything you need to stay in and cook a nice meal, you just have to bring the groceries. We loved our stay and will definitely rebook when we return to this town.

House was great along with the location. Road was narrow but still plenty of space on each side with a large pickup. House was clean and furniture was clean. The biggest downside was we specifically wanted a hot tub but went to get in the first night and had debris in it(sand, dirt and leaves) so we dipped out what we could. By the second night it was obvious that the water had been in there a while and a lack of chemicals due to the stagnant smell of the water and was already cloudy. By the 3rd night you couldn’t see the bottom of the tub so we only were able to use it for 1 night. Other than the hot tub everything was great!
