2ed stay and still perfect!
There is not one thing you need to bring to this cabin except your clothes and your food. Everything is provided. It’s right on the bike trail so just hop on your bike and go! Beds super comfortable, cozy gas logs, fire pit, fantastic porches (one screened, one open) You just cannot beat this cabin if you are biking the trail. Not one little complaint about anything on this cabin! 😁

Perfect Place to Unwind and Ride
The location is not secluded but peaceful. The cabin right next door appeared to be vacant during our stay, so it was quiet. We were here to ride on the New River Trail, which parallels the driveway. By trail, Foster Falls is approximately 4 miles south and the iron bridge in Hiwassee around 10 miles north. The location is perfect in that regard. The cabin is well-appointed and cozy. The jacuzzi tub is perfect after a long day of riding! Cell service is poor but I was able to get LTE in the corner of the front bedroom in case of emergency. Thankfully there were none. Great place for digital detox! Check-in, check-out, and everything in between was easy. The gravel/dirt road getting to the cabin is steep but maintained. We didn't have any issues in a front-wheel drive. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would recommend Ayita to anyone looking for perfect access to the trail for a few days.

You cannot find a better location for bicycling the trail !
This house was a huge surprise on the inside as the photos don’t do it justice. We loved everything about it from the comfortable beds, to the fully stocked kitchen, to the huge jetted tub, and especially the porches. One open and one screened, both of which we used and rocked happily in the rocking chairs as we waved to other bicyclists peddling by. Such fun! I have absolutely zero comments other then this house is perfect and we will be returning yearly to bike the trail! I won’t even bother looking for other accommodations.

Truly a gettaway
Everything was good but this property could use some TLC--more like a good spring cleaning. Needed a few kitchen items. Bathroom was lovely, the bedding excellent, and all was very comfortable and the setting was very nice. The road to the property needs to be maintained better but not sure whose responsibility that is. The satellite TV was a nice edition as we had no cell service. We had a relaxing week.

New River Trail at your doorway and surrounded by history !
What an awesome hide away ! The New River Rails to Trail literally runs through the front yard. Pick a direction and you 20+ miles either way. Don't want to ride the cabin is centrally located to numerous attractions... pick your fancy and you'll be there in minutes. The cabin itself is an absolute gem!! One charm mixed perfectly with modern touches... everything you need for a romantic get-a-way or a week with the family.... only possible improvement would be wifi but not a issue when you don't need it.... will plan to stay here again and again !!
