10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2024
Quiet, secluded, near the river. It is secluded, but close to Sylva, a small town with great eateries and coffee shops. The location is in a travel trailer park, but for my stay it was very quiet. The tiny house is comfortable and has all the basics. I enjoyed the stay and recommend the location for a couple or very small group.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2023
The house is truly a tiny house. My husband is 6 foot and he felt cramped in the house. The house looks exactly as the listing, so it really is only for two people otherwise it is cramped. It not near much. Most attractions and dining is at least 20 minutes away. You also have to cut through other people's yards to get into the river out front and there is not really an easy or safe way to get down. There is nobody on the campground for help. The guy next to us rented an RV from the campsite next to us and had no help on whether it was the right RV or not. It is very cramped campground, so pulling an RV out is hard work in some areas. The water doesn't really work all that well and the air conditioner is a little small for the home. Its a good stay if you want to be away from everything.
