This has been the best vacation for my family. The location was perfect, the house was perfect! The age group was 87-7 and everyone had a fantastic time ❤️❤️❤️
Everything was incredible. I would gladly stay in this place. Everything was clean. It is very nice. We enjoyed the balcony by the campfire. A lot of beautiful places.
Well laid out two level modern cabin with wrap around porch looking out onto Scenic Mountain View. The two upstairs bedrooms with kitchen and sitting area plus the downstairs Suite with bedroom and full bath Plus game room that included card table and various games

180 willow pond was a very nice vacation spot for grandparents, children and grandchildren to meet from opposite parts of the country. Everything was as described in the listing. Great place within easy drive from all area sites but with privacy. We had contact 4 times with Yellow Rose staff and all were very prompt and helpful.
Clean and comfortable, property was exactly as described. Plenty of space for a large group. Hot tub worked great. I liked the location, would definitely come back!

Reviewer Comments:
I was disappointed in the over all condition of the house. The futon's were not made up and one was missing a cushion, also the linens were on the floor in a pile(not in bags or folded). The floor upstairs was not clean. There are exactly enough towels for 10 guest to use one towel, so if you plan on using the hot tub bring towels. We also had a problem with the washer, the a/c and the little fire place upstairs also stopped working. It is close to town, so if you want privacy this is not the place. I give it an over all of 3 stars. The management company was responsive to the issues and for the price it was nice enough.

Reviewer Comments:
House was not what we expected. Online photos portray something better than what it really was. Dust, dog hair and bugs were throughout the house. We had to wash the bedding before we could use them due to all the dog hair. The downstairs heat did not work properly. One of the downstairs doors were not locked upon arrival. It appeared as if someone had been in the house while we were gone during the day we would notice small things not in the place we left them. The shower head in the purple room was not attached properly when turned on water went everywhere. I had to fix it before we could use it. Coffee grounds were all in the coffee maker, was not cleaned before we arrived. The whole house smelled like a dirty dog. There was a bowl and a dog poop bad under one of the kids beds. More than half the lights were blown throughout the house. Kids enjoyed the fire pit, we made s’mores. We liked that it was a convenient location.

The cabin was even more spacious and lovely than pictured! Having 3 very large bedrooms and 3 FULL bathrooms was such a blessing with our family - children, all adults, in need of more space. The downstairs den was very cozy and fun to watch movies together! It was the perfect location to Bryson City activities - church, restaurants, and shops! Great directions to find our cabin and no steep, scary incline to get there!

Willow Pond was an excellent property for our Polar Express adventure. Clean and roomy, the cabin exceeded our expectations from the description online. It was clean, well maintained and easily accessible from town. The grandkids loved the game room. We would definitely stay there again and strongly recommend it to others looking to stay close to Bryson City center.

Like Being At Home Absolutely Enjoyed Our Stay
Beautiful property just minutes from downtown Bryson
We loved the balcony and porch areas with beautiful views of the mountains, it’s very own pond and green space. Our children loved the green space to be able to run around in. And there were 2 fire pits! Inside had all the basics we needed for our stay. Excited for our next trip!

Ok..for the price
The property wasn't clean there was roaches and the tubs were dirty. The driveway needs attention. However the place was roomy plenty of sleeping for large familes. And the price was good. But due to the roaches we will not be staying again

Reviewer Comments:
Traveling with three generations this cabin worked perfectly for us. Very large open spaces with adequate seating and bedding for 10, we had only 6 but larger families would work too. Nicely decorated. Could use more porch chairs we brought up the bonfire seating. Washing machine is super loud but we googled that is normal for model. Perfect location to all the activities we had planned.
Nice relaxing. Close to town. GPS will get you there, but their instructions are better.
Listing said mostly motorcycle friendly, "a little gravel" please smooth out the washed areas and it would be better. Didn't notice that there was only 1 TV, but it was nice to not hear the noise of TV. Make sure you do not leave trash outside while staying. Some wildlife critters enjoy getting into the trash. We have 2 daughters that just kept on talking about the bear (he only wanted to get to the trash) So we had peace and adventure all in one place.
