Nice little getaway

We really enjoyed our stay. We needed a little getaway and this place was quiet and peaceful. We loved the hot tub the most. The drive up was a little scary but that wouldn't stop us from booking again.

The Paynes

It was our second time staying at the property and we really enjoyed it again. We love the fenced in back yard for our two small dogs. Location is great with Dillsboro and Sylva being less than 10 miles and Cherokee and Bryson City less than 15. We plan to return in late October

At the top of mountain

It was nice and rustic. I had zero issues with anything except the climb to the top. The instructions did say that during winter months you do need 4x4, but we went at the end of October where I still wore shorts. The climb to the cabin was sketchy for someone who doesn’t drive on sides of mountains very often. I suggest at least having 4x4 all the time just in case when renting this cabin. Other than the climb up, I would recommend this cabin .

Spring Break Getaway

We enjoyed this cute cabin with our dog. It was well-appointed, with a treat basket and hot drinks. We loved the very comfy king size bed. The road up to the top was a little tricky, but our Durango made it just fine. We came to do hiking and it was conveniently located near many hiking trails.

Perfect mountain getaway

We loved this cutest cabin while visiting Great Smoky NP. It was very close to the town of Cherokee and about 30 min to trailheads. We also visited local beautiful waterfalls after seeing the directions on the guest book. The loft bed and sitting area with the balcony is the cutest thing. The sofa bed is right by the entrance door but was comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed and more. And we enjoyed the hot tub after our hiking. It’s pretty close to town but def gives a secluded mountain feel. Wished we could stay longer!

Mostly great

The cabin is great. It is well stocked (dishes and cooking supplies), had plenty of room, the 2 window unit A/Cs kept the entire cabin cool, and the fenced backyard was fantastic for our 2 dogs. The bad part of this place was the atrocious last half mile of our drive which was Whittier Heights Rd and Conifer Dr. It is definitely not the most scenic drive in with the junkyard looking house on WH Rd and the ruts/road condition for both roads were awful. You definitely wouldn't want to take a car or you'd probably bottom out. Overall, it was a great stay if you can look past that part. Great location that is close to a lot of different activities. Would recommend, just drive a truck!

SAFETY AND SECURITY RISK

This property is not SAFE! Under any circumstances do not rent this property. The gravel, one lane mountain road is dangerous. The property is not marked, the exterior of the property is nothing like the photos and there is a large occupied junk yard around the corner from the property. Evolve should NOT allow this property to be listed. Tried to reach out to the owner of the property four different times with no response.

Couples stay + dog : small, as advertised, convenient

Unit was just as advertised and convenient to Cherokee and surrounding areas. Interior was very clean. Kitchen fully equipped. Two small AC window units were surprisingly adequate for a very hot July 4th weekend. Very fast internet. Bed was big and comfy. AWD def is necessary for climb up to cabin (as advertised). 4 star bc the hot tub was icky and in poor condition. My husband cleaned the tub and filter and added the necessary chemicals, but it really needs a professional cleaning. This was addressed with the owner directly and I feel sure it will be resolved. Owners were very easy to contact and seemed engaged and willing to do anything to help ensure our stay was nice.

Wonderful

Everything we needed was there. Centrally located to everything we were doing. Having a fenced in yard for the dogs was a plus. The drive up and down was interesting, but we have AWD so no issues.

Hidden gem

This was a great place! Loved the hot tub and the fenced in area for our two small dogs. Property was super clean and well stocked. The road getting up was a little steep and bumpy-no problem for our Ford Explorer but would not have known from the description. Perfect for a couple's mountain getaway.

Awesome cabin with a central location

Cabin was very nice with Fast internet. Great location to visit Bryson City, Sylva, and Cherokee. Loved the fenced area for our dog. Dirt road was steep and rough in places but passable in our Grand Cherokee. One house on the road is sketchy looking but no issues from neighbors. Few issues with the front door lock but the host was quick to respond and get us fixed up. Would stay again if I was in the area. Thanks!
