The beautiful fall decorations and stocked so well, whatever you may have forgotten, the cabin has it. Great location for access to the Smoky Mountain Railroad, and all of western North Carolina. The views from both decks are phenomenal. The driveway is a little challenging (backing up) and a map showing an easy way out of the community (without having to do 6 point turns) would be super helpful! A perfect spot to enjoy the mountains ##### Suzy Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Southern-Pines-Hotels-Pine-Needles-Lodge-Golf-Club.h2222358.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tipsy Pelican- The Best Place To Relax!
