Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi E. May 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fishing & relaxing by the river This property was very clean, and the amenities were as advertised. We cooked some meals there, and we had everything we needed. The house is a little off the beaten path, so our cell phone reception was limited, but the Wifi was fine. I have stayed in alot of vacation rentals, and must say again my biggest compliment is how clean it was!!! ##### Heidi E. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Faye J. Oct 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Little Tennessee River Gem We rented this home for family members who were visiting from South Dakota. It was perfect in every way. We live up high so they had both a mountain view and the beautiful view of the Little Tennessee River. The sound of the river was soothing and the large porch provided a place just to sit and soak in the peace. It is a lovely place and we will rent it again when we have more family than can stay with us. ##### Faye J. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tina F. Mar 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Vacation Spot! The cabin was delightful in all respects - accommodations, cleanliness, location, and overall comfort. The host's communication was timely and professional. The river was so relaxing. You are "away" from the hustle and bustle yet close to interesting towns with shops and restaurants. While there, we visited Bryson City, Stecoah, Highlands, Cherokee, Waynesville, & Franklin, NC; Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN; and Helen & Dillard, GA. We will absolutely be back! ##### Tina F. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Madel C. Jun 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect! We had a wonderful time at wine down. It was perfect. For a couple that loves fishing and outdoors this place is a gem. The sound of the water is very relaxing and the view at night, watching the fireflies was spectacular. Love everything about this place. The cabin has everything we needed (even sunscreen!). Property owner or manager was easy to reach and very accommodating. Will definitely come back. ##### Madel C. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dianne W. Jun 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Riverside Paradise Everything about our stay was perfect from beginning to end. The host was very prompt and helpful in answering questions. The house was exactly as listed and so clean and comfortable and very well stocked with all the comforts of home. The view was spectacular. We enjoyed morning and evening fires by the river, with firewood delivered by a very nice man and his father at a very reasonable rate. We would definitely rent this home again in the future if possible. ##### Dianne W. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tina F. Jul 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Second Five Star Stay The cabin was perfect for family time for grandparents and three grandchildren (4,5,9 y/0). The accommodations were clean and all we needed to cook meals, relax, and rest. VERY comfortable. The host's communication was timely and professional. The river was clear and easy pace to float. The cabin is just far enough "away" yet close to fun activities. During our time there we visited waterfalls, rafted the Nantahala, tubed the river behind the cabin, mined for gems, visited Fontana Dam & Bryson City, took a late afternoon pontoon ride, went on a guided fishing trip, and the kids loved "The Factory." We cannot wait to return. ##### Tina F.
