Very cute old house in between the mountains. Beautiful little country church on the hill. A lamp for the living room and one on the bedside table would make the stay much nicer. And the grills weren’t usable. But the place was quaint and clean and a very nice getaway.
We drove up here from Central Florida and this house was everything and then some.
Views driving up to the house, amazing, house was clean, very nice, and in a very quiet area.
Saw so many Elk on the drives in. Would definitely return.
Owner was quick to respond as well.
Had zero issues property wise !

Time (of our lives)
Beats any of the hotel/motel options by 100 miles in our family’s opinion.
Property as advertised and photos are as well. It was a great location for our family vacation for fishing, tubing, hiking, and just sitting on the porch. Every morning on our way out and every afternoon on our way in we saw elk and turkey in the field by the river. House was clean, appliances new, a/c worked well, and water was hot. We were well pleased with our stay.
This place surprised me by being everything I needed and more. Cherokee don’t have many places like this hidden gem. It’s quiet, clean, and the best yard to visit with family. I’d stay here every time I go home.
We truly enjoyed the peace and quiet of this little farmhouse. We saw Elk in the field near the turn in road every day, including bucks fighting. Very convenient to National Park. Lots to see. House was very clean with nice appliances and comfortable beds. Host very kind and responsive to questions.
The entire process through the stay was just amazing. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. We showed up to the place and there was a basket with some goodies waiting on us, communication was great as-well. Would definitely stay here again.
My family and I had the best vacation here! The home was extremely clean, nice, and unique. Upon our arrival the owners had put together a gift basket and sign welcoming us. The drive through the Great Smoky Mountains park to arrive at the home was breathtakingly. We saw elk, bears, and turkeys. The neighborhood the house is located in was very safe and welcoming. I took many walks and met numerous locals of the neighborhood who were extremely welcoming and told us many wonderful sights to see and great places to eat. The location was one of a kind. Being able to stay at a house so nice in the Great Smoky Mountains was once in a lifetime experience. We will definitely be booking this house many times in the future.

Mountain view
You will have a mountain view but you will also have a view of 2 abandoned dump trucks and 2 abandoned school buses. Not the neatest neighborhood.
The home was beautiful inside and out. The owners were so gracious and kind. The home was Very Clean and very comfortable. We truly felt at home and enjoyed our Christmas and New Year at the Farmhouse. When we go back to Cherokee we are definitely going to book the property again.
