Amazing views! Everyone had an amazing time with all of the amenities. Road is super steep to get to the cabin but it is worth it for the solitude once you arrive. Plenty of room for our whole family group of 13. Would definitely book again.

What a wonderful cabin and location! My family and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving in a beautiful location. Everything is just as described - the game room is probably better than described. my family likes to cook and the kitchen facilities were great with almost every utensil/appliance you will need (three mash potato mashers? four pizza cutters?). Great view, comfortable rooms, good communication with host. Would recommend and come again. We were 12 - 9 adults and three older kids and everyone had a blast. Thanks, Ted!

Beautiful family trip

We had a wonderful stay with our adult children and grandchildren. The house was very clean, well stocked, and family friendly. The views from the deck were outstanding. Plenty of space for a large group and a great base to visit the area. Tom answers messages quickly through the app.

I take my whole family on vacations and this, by far was the best accomodations we have experienced. The place was clean, spacious, organized and fit our group(7 adults and four kids) perfectly. The view was out of this world and the covered porch was perfect for enjoying the view. The game room kept everyone busy in the evenings with pool tournaments and and the other games. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for preparing meals.

This large mountain cabin is hidden in the Cowee Valley. It has plenty of room and the views are incredible. The hot tub overlooking the valley is the highlight as well as the game room downstairs. We highly recommend staying here.
