Beautiful location! The house was clean when we checked in and the kitchen had all the appliances we needed to cook! The only thing to note is to take caution when pulling out of the driveway but we were able to turn the minivan around in the driveway instead of trying to back out.

Small cabin well maintained indoors. Outdoors did not offer easy access to river/fishing. Many weeds entangled bank fishing lines and steep, rocky slope to water level. Fishing was disappointing but cabin was very good. The driveway was very dangerous because of the curve very close. Driveway offered almost no room to turn around. Took several attempts to get pointed outward. Only minor comments for interior such as lamp did not work and couldn’t locate switch for kitchen table (my fault most likely). If fishing access was created, this would be a “10”. I know one cannot control where fish are located-just provide easy access somehow. Undecided if we will return… any improvements will be very much appreciated by us looking for both fishing and outstanding views of mountains and the river !!

Spectacular view of river and mountain. Cozy cabin. Getting out of driveway is difficult because of curve and needs cutback on other side to safely leave property. The beds had dog hair on them but other than that it was clean. The railing on front needs support but honestly the views from this cottage are amazing and makes the issues seem small.

Great home in a perfect location

Great little house on the water. Perfect for a couple or small family looking for a weekend getaway close to dillsboro and sylva. The only bad part about the hunt is the driveway location. Your view is blocked both ways so pulling into the road is a little difficult but manageable.

Mountain view

The view of the mountain was beautiful, nice deck. Upon arriving, our code didn't work on the door. My husband found a glass sliding door that was open so that is how we were able to get in. The fan in kitchen was covered in dust so never used it. Dishes in dishwasher were dirty and so was filter in dishwasher

Nice wrap around porch on the river with mountain view.

I have mixed feelings about this property. Loved that it was right on the river, the view was gorgeous. Also right on a busy highway so you get plenty of weekday road noise from big trucks. House is smaller than it looks in pics, but cozy. Couch and chairs were comfortable. I wasn't impressed with the cleaning. On the surface it looked okay, but could use a good spring cleaning. Would I stay here again? Probably not, but wouldn't rule it out completely.

Gorgeous and peaceful riverview!

We stayed here when visiting our son at WCU. It's close to Dillsboro downtown area... Beds were comfy and a relaxing family room. It is on a narrow road and getting out of driveway is a little difficult due to proximity to road and some shrubs/trees that block your view. I recommend backing into driveway and it makes for an easier exit. We will definitely stay again.

Not what is depucted

Parking exit DANGEROUS! Photos show more spacious instead small-cramped. Some lights blown out. Tv barely worked, dryer door opened 4-5”. Fire pit overgrown. BRs had to walk by sideways. Front door lock hard locking. Trash cans under house-were full, had to walk in mud to get to. No wifi. Mattresses worn and poor. Water pressure poor. Driveway had shrubbery creating major blind spot!! I reported..said nothing could be done. Heavy traffic constant !! Would never rent again nor recommend

Nice stay A few issues

Arrived at property. Yard hadn't been mowed, grass was kinda high. Fire pit had a lot of tree branches in it from someone trimming branches. Satellite dish would not work the whole trip, tried what we were told to do and still never worked for the whole week. Rooms are smaller than the pics make out. Very good location, river was nice and very nice cabin. Other than the above issues it was a nice stay.
