Whether your looking for adventure or romance your sure to find it in this one bedroom, one bath cabin on the river. It has been remodeled. And the bed and sofa are new. Large shared yard with firepit, swing, grill and picnic table on the river. Also, there are a few fishing poles, you are welcome to use. The cabin is centrally located between Cherokee and Bryson City, so if you want to gamble or ride the train you are only minutes away. There are hiking trails and waterfalls nearby in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park . Or go whitewater rafting and ziplining at the Nantahala Gorge. Must be able to walk down uneven stone stairs. Or if art galleries and boutiques is your thing, Bryson City has that too along with Breweries. Or you could just chill and grill at the cabin. Lie around in the living room and read a book while listening to the sound of the rushing river outside. Snuggle up next to the firepit and roast some marshmellows. Also, now with central heat and air. And has smart tv now If you need a place for 4 people instead of just 2 check out vrbo number 4672931. It is the top cabin that you will share the yard with if it is rented.

My husband I spent the weekend celebrating his retirement and my birthday. We enjoyed the fire pit and relaxing to the sounds from the river.
The bed was comfortable and overall the cabin is very cozy!
We stayed at the bottom level of the property right across the flowing rover. There's a fire pit with logs in yhe backyard just near the river as well as a swing.
The moment you walk into the unit, you will know that the owners have very lovingly made up the entire place. You have everything that you need during your stay in the apartment. Really loved it and thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

The property is lovely. The space was just right. It was a friendly atmosphere and fun was had by all. The location is near everything that you would want to do in Cherokee.
The little apartment was spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable and we were very happy with the rental. The river was right in the backyard, and it was beautiful. There are steep steps leading down to the apartment, though. That was our only concern.
Small quaint basement apartment basically. Only issue was sound of people walking above. DVD only on Tv but we lived. Wifi is good. Phone service not great but again we survived lol. Place was clean. Kitchen has small stove microwave but bring yr own paper plates and coffee mugs. Just two of us so was perfect. There was wood for firepit and the sound of the river was soothing. Wd be a great spot for a couple or like myself and 11 yr old son. Close to several places but kind of hard to just find a place to eat. But overall I wd stay again. If you have bad knees etc it’s a downhill walk down steps to carry your stuff. Just some advice. Place is great.
These are the things we love about the property: It’s on a beautiful river with mountains in view. There is seating, a fire pit, a grill, and places to eat and relax by the calming sound of the river. The small apt. has everything we need to rest well, fix our own meals and have close proximity to the Smoky Mountains, hiking, Bryson City and more. It is very affordable and the hosts are wonderful, reliable people!
We just finished our 2nd stay and plan to be back in the spring.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Property was clean. View was nice. Property owner was pleasant, accommodated and easy to talk to. Would stay there again.
The view was great and communication with the owner was as well. Just know this is the Bottom level of a 3 story home. I see that now after the fact but wasn't aware during booking. The pictures don't really sell how small of a living space this is. Window Unit cools the bottom level but not sure how effective it was during the day since we weren't there during the day but It kept us cool at night. The bed was extremely comfortable as well. The furniture is small so take that in to account when looking at the pictures. Overall great stay especially once the shock of the small space subsided.
Beautiful, wonderful time, my girlfriend and I stayed here for the weekend, enjoyed every bit of it.

This place is a DUMP!
I loved the stay. Hostess was very kind and helpful. Property is well maintained and in such a gorgeous location on the river. You could just sit and enjoy nature or you are a short drive from any of the fun towns to explore.
We had a beautiful getaway in this lovely little place. Our host had every thing we could possibly need provided and the communication was great. The location was PERFECT!! Right in the middle between Cherokee and Bryson city. I wish we could've stayed longer just to enjoy that gorgeous view.
We enjoyed our stay. Kathy is a thoughtful super host. I was celebrating my birthday during our stay. She had a cake in the refrigerator and a birthday sign. The place was very clean and we enjoyed the view of the river. We enjoyed our conversation with her. We will definitely stay at her place when we are back.
We enjoyed our time relaxing by the river at this beautiful, clean, and quiet property. When we visit again we will definitely stay here again. It’s perfect for a couple getaway.
Place was clean, and we loved the babbling creek sounds. Property was as described, though I was surprised at the size of the refrigerator and coffee make, which were pint sized. Couch and bed were new as described. Cozy comes to mind. And Kathy added a nice touch with some cake for our anniversary. We had a lovely time!
