Great location!!

The sleeping arrangements are great for a large family of 8 or more! The decor was great and so was the location! Kitchen could have been cleaner and more well stocked with utensils for those who like to cook at home and also eat out. The best part of this beautiful home is the location and nice pool.

She sells seashells stay

The house was wonderful fit for my family. We had seven in our crew. It was walking distance to the beach, a fishing area in the back and a pool right in front of our area.. We did have some questions throughout our stay but Tanya was quickly responsive to those questions. Overall it was a great experience.

Fantastic stay

The location of the cottage was great. We liked that it was further away from the crowds/traffic and the walk to the beach was within 5 min. The cottage was very clean and I appreciated that each bedroom had its own full bathroom.

Perfect vacation!

“She Sells Sea Shells” exceeded our expectations. Th unit was immaculately maintained, spacious and beautifully designed with 3 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and a nice porch to enjoy evening drinks. We had easy access to the pool and beach. Our Cavapoo puppy loved walking/running me on the paved path overlooking the bay!😊 Thank you, Tamra!♥️.

Great beach vacay.

We had a lovely 4 week stay at SSSS. The location was great; a quick, traffic free walk to the beach. The cottage was updated, super clean and comfortable. Tanya was a great communicator. She responded promptly to any queries that we had. Everything was labeled, had video instructions, and was easy to access and understand. Highly recommend.

Just a little short of what we expected

I think it was over priced for a beach property. Some of the furniture was not very clean mainly the two chairs in the living room icemaker did not work had to have ice delivered, which the owner did very quickly which we appreciate the neighbors next-door did not adhere to the late policy as they had to 20+ people for a party very noisy no one from the complex address the issue

Hello everyone, my name is Tanya. I'm a married mother of 4 (3 girls and 1 boy ages 17, 14, 12 and 10) . We absolutely love the Great Smoky Mountains, mother nature and tons of activities for the whole family. We love the area so much that in August of 2020 our family decided to purchase our first vacation home. We wanted a cabin large and luxurious enough for me and my family plus if we wanted to vacation with other friends and family. We hope you enjoy our brand new cabin as much as our family has. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.
