Shower was spacious, pressure strong, water nice and hot! The scenery was gorgeous, a perfect little wooded getaway. We were in the area for a friend's wedding festivities and didn't get enough time to enjoy the cabin and property to it's full extent, so we'll have to come back another time to check out the hot tub, fire pit, and trails that looked like a lot of fun!The cabin was well stocked with supplies and everything we could need. Lovely propertly, clean, well maintained, and lots to do.We loved our stay, and you will too! Thank you David & Laurie! ##### Jordyn P. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen B.

We choose this cottage because it was so Secluded We totally enjoyed our stay . Even though it rained it was so nice just to set on the deck and watch the birds. Rabbits , butterflies and listening to the frogs. The skies were clear enough to see Millions of stars beautiful. Very comfortable,, clean, well supplied overall we felt at home. We didn’t miss our phones we do want to get back in the fall. Thanks so much for the time we spent in the charming cottage. ##### Roger D.

Jul 8, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Scenery The place is very cozy and really relaxing to come home to after a long day, however it does take about an hour to get up and down the mountain each way, and there are no street lights for nightime driving (its on a mountain so this may be apparent). My friends and I had a very nice time all though we didnt spend too much time in the house itself because of all the fun activities you can do around it! 10/10 would recommend this cabin for nature lovers ##### Keylina K. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Tonia B. Jan 21, 2017 #### Quiet and quaint We spent 2 nights in the cabin and it was very quiet and relaxing. We made a bonfire one evening and didn't have much success because the wood was pretty damp. The next evening we had dinner in downtown Andrews and watched a movie in the cabin. The first evening we arrived a fuse blew when we plugged in the space heater so be sure not to turn too many lights on at once. Other than that it was a pleasant stay. Water was warm, bed was comfortable and cabin was clean. ##### Tonia B. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2016 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan H. Mar 11, 2016 #### We Loved It! Our family loves going to Nantahala Lake for family reunions. We always seem to find something new that we really enjoy every year. The cliff rock was so fun this year. I don't know of any other place you can do something like that! Our kids went knee boarding for the first time this year, and got their first experience on a Skee-Do. It is so nice to have a quaint place to come home to rest, just down the street from the lake. Great scenery. Affordable. Full kitchen to cook breakfast, lunch and dinner. This Cozy Mountain Getaway allowed us to stay up in the mountains near cherished family. We don't have a four-wheel drive van, and you don't need one to access this place, which is a bonus. ##### Ryan H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carrie H. Apr 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Secluded Views This little cabin was just cozy enough to provide everything we needed! Big windows bring in the views. Great outdoor space on the deck and property to explore and enjoy. There is an additional building that houses a washer/dryer on site. The drive up was a pretty but curvy mountain road. The driveway is steep but manageable. It's quiet and relaxed but there is zero reception for any kind of communication. You have to drive a few miles if you need that. We stopped at the grocery store about 20 minutes away and stocked up and didn't need a thing! It snowed the entire time, even though it was April but it was beautiful and fun getaway in a nice, comfortable space. We stayed warm and the hot tub was a treat! ##### Carrie H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Juan S. Jul 8, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing Stay The house was small and cozy. It had everything my wife and I needed. It was secluded, it had a small grill, kitchen appliances, and some DVDs to watch. Things to know before booking this home: 1) make sure you check your emails and anything you need internet based before you pass Andrews. My wife and I got to the house and could not pull up the keypad code and we have to drive 20 minutes back to get internet connection. 2) There is a large bee hive close to the entrance of the home. Be careful with the bumblebees. 3) Bring some DVDs if you plan on staying inside the house. Although we enjoyed some of the DVDs there was not a huge collection. Great home for the price!!! ##### Juan S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Sadie S. Aug 28, 2017 #### Could have been a great stay. I will first say all the good things about the cabin RV: the interior was clean and there were plenty of towels, bath products, kitchen amenities and seating for 2 to 4 people. There was plenty of hot water for me and my aunt and the oven worked well. The fire pit was great to sit out at every night, but you will probably need to bring your own wood to start a fire. The grill worked well, but the ignitor isn't working so you'll need matches. Outside of the issue discussed later the location was great! The loft area was generally too hot, as was the house during the day even with the air conditioners on, but for the most part you're going to be adventuring outdoors! Definitely go to the swimming hole listed in the book. Now on to the bad: the owners messaged me at 10:00PM the night before our arrival that they rented the field below the cabin to 100 campers for the eclipse. I was shocked and a little heartbroken, but hoped for the best, as my aunt and I booked the property 8 months in advance specifically for the seclusion. The campers were noisy and it singularly ruined our trip and our peace during the eclipse event. Although the instructions say there is a lock on the gate, there is not...which we found open after the campers arrived and asked for assistance with security, to which a lock was promised, but never delivered. The owners' sons woke us up at 7:30AM our last day to ask to get something off the property, which frightened us at first, having experienced the security issue the day before. The grass wasn't cut around the property like in the pictures, so my aunt and I suffered several dozen chigger bites across our bodies. We couldn't get the stereo to work, but that didn't really bother us. Remember to check the windows, as we found several unlocked before we left the first day. Oh, and the instructions provided will give you an address that doesn't work on GPS. Use the house number given minus six to get there. Overall, this could have been a really great experience. Instead of the owners letting us know in advance they planned to rent out the field to a 100 people, so we might be able to cancel and make more suitable arrangements, they were deceptive and waited until the night before. Requests to ensure our safety weren't dealt with. There won't be an eclipse event with noisy campers below when you potentially stay here, but you should know how the people you are renting from act and respond. ##### Sadie S. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian S. Aug 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Nice place but No Cell Service Make sure you screen shot the Wi-Fi password & lock box code before coming to the location. We did have a field mouse get into the house that was eating our pretzels the first night but we did not see him again once we locked up all the open food bags but we left one night early because of the mouse. The field mouse is to be expected because of where you are. The house was VERY clean and very comfortable. I had no contact info for the home owners & felt this issue was not a huge deal to contact them about. I provided 5 stars for communication but did not talk to them. There is cell service if you drive 22 minutes to the closest town. Mine is At&t and one had T-Mobile and we had nothing at the house. Make sure you activate Wi-Fi calling on your phone before going. Driving through the mountains the cell service would drop out for miles so don’t clear your maps application if you have no cell service. There is a paper map option at the rest stop by the BP off of Hwy19 Make sure you download offline maps of the area before coming incase you get lost. ##### Brian S.

We loved our two nights at Running Squirrel Ridge! The home was comfortable and clean, and described very accurately in the listing.The kitchen is well equipped and we cooked both dinners while there. The hot tub under the stars was a great experience, even on a cloudy night. The host was responsive prior to our visit with questions about the area and some other details. Highly recommend the cabin! ##### Tim R. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kayla J.

If you have a toddler I would suggest bring a baby gate for the loft area (my little one was obsessed with the cute little stairs but did fall down them, ONCE) he’s ok! ت WiFi is a little touchy but it worked out for us as we stayed busy on the property exploring and at the near by lake! I’d definitely stay again with my husband and friends! ##### Kayla J. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sami N.

It was also clean which definitely makes a difference. This area is very beautiful and peaceful. The hot tub is great as well! Would definitely recommend overall! ##### Sami N.

It was clean and welcoming. The views that you get from the many windows inside and on the deck are beautiful. You feel secluded from the world with all of the trees around. I did the short hike up to the top of the mountain and the view was well worth it! You can sit on the bench at the top and see the lake and mountain view. There were even a few benches along the trail that I used to take a break. And to end the day, I relaxed in the hot tub! My stay was relaxing and peaceful. I am looking forward to returning. ##### Seth A. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kenzie W.

It is an adorable cabin with a comfy master bed and cute kids' nook, super comfy couches, and a fun movie selection. We loved stargazing from the hot tub, hiking the trails, and enjoying the swings up on the mountain. The quiet mountains and great views let us feel secluded even though town was only 20 minutes away. There was a great hammock spot we enjoyed, and even though I chose to keep my phone turned off, it was an added perk that there was Wifi if I wanted to get connected with the outside world. Thanks so much for sharing your little piece of heaven! We will definitely be visiting again. ##### Kenzie W. Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leah R.

The view was stunning(especially the hike up around the property). We loved the swing. Watching my youngest girl swing was such and enjoyment because she loved it ! The cabin was clean ,they provided so much and even a nice laundry room! Places to sit outside like a table with unbrella, picnic table and hammocks! Hot tub was very nice !! The kids absolutely loved the loft with a comfy Queen and also a air matress that you just plug in and fills up and is comfortable! Games , movies and relaxation. Queen in bedroim downstairs that was very comfy and two pull out couches. Plenty of room and they provided extra blankets. This place was so lovely !!! We went to a local trout farm and did some tubing. Enjoyed the Nantahala. No wifi or cell service so that was great to disconnect. So take your family and let them catch their supper and play some ganes and enjoy the blessings you have in this nice gettaway:) I am from the mountains and hills of Tennessee and beauty runs deep here but to me NC is the next best thing to me :) Great host too !! Super nice and fast response!! ##### Leah R. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Brittany T.

No wifi or cell service kept us away from distractions and spent quality time together watching movies, playing games, in the hot tub and walking trails and enjoying the swings ##### Brittany T.
