We found the home to be very clean and had everything to make our stay comfortable. The host was so helpful with our last minute booking! And I can’t say enough about the location, it was located in the nation park and we were greeted by large herd of elk every time went drove down the driveway. We will definitely book this home again when visiting the Smokies.

If you are looking for peace and quiet close to GSMNP, this is the place for you! The front porch rockers were the perfect place for morning coffee. The kitchen looks newly renovated and is beautiful! The beds were comfortable. And the house was very clean! We were able to see elk every evening at the bottom of the hill. We will be back!

Wonderful Quiet Home

Our stay was relaxing, just as we hoped. This home is really close to all the hiking trails on Newfound Gap Rd, a few miles to the Blue Ridge Pkwy and much more. If you want a quiet location, this is your spot. Home is comfortable with ample living, dining and kitchen space. The front porch in the morning and evening is so peaceful. The owner was very responsive to anything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Almost Perfect

The property and everything was the best experience I have every experienced in my 3 years of booking homes online. The only negative was air flow and all open windows kinda creepy at night. Overall best experience!

Cute little getaway house

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.

Escape from the city life

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 !

Well pleased

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.

Perfect mountain getaway

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.

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.
