    Directions to the place was very detailed. Peaceful piece of heaven on the river. For us it was in the middle of where our family lives and town if we needed anything. Will definitely be booking again.

    Jason, our host was amazing. Very accommodating and just an awesome person. Our stay was great. I can’t wait to return. Thank you

    Our 2nd trip and we could not have asked for anything more. This little piece of heaven is a must visit!!!!!!!

    This property is amazing. The view by the water and peacefulness of it all was hard to leave. The owners did 100% at accurately describing and detailing this rental. If you're looking for hotel comfort this is a NO (outdoor shower / outhouse) but if you're looking for privacy, relaxation by the edge of the river a Huge Yes. The outdoor shower will grow on ya if you're not use this kinda thing and going to a huge outhouse.....They are truly not that bad. The bed was comfortable, and the owners had everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay inside the cabin which is bigger than expected inside. Very clean and tidy. The layout of this property has all you need to get away from it all... from the swing by the river reading a good book or fishing to watching TV under a covered patio/fireplace area while the rain hit the tin roof. If I could rate this rental more than a 5 star review, I would. Cannot wait to plan our next stay here with the kids. It is a picture of perfection looking out from the rocking chair on the porch. Absolutely loved this rental.

    Wonderful little weekend getaway! The property was just as described, and the host was wonderful. My husband and I had a wonderful anniversary weekend and plan to bring the kids back next time.

    This was a great rustic camp with some modern perks. Will stay there again when were able!

    The property is exactly as described. The sound of the river is absolutely priceless. The cabin was perfect and the exterior amenities are everything you would want or need. We can't wait until our next booking here. 10 out of 10!!!!

    My girlfriend and I loved our stay. Our dog did as well. I thought the room was better than pictured. We didn't need it, but the host provided everything anybody could want. Delightful, relaxing place to stay.

    We are so excited about this property, the location, the amenities, the communication, and how easy every step of the process has been. We'll be going back as much as we can. We had a weekend whitewater paddling trip staying at the property and it was perfect in every way. The group camped outside and the bathroom and kitchen were all we needed. We paddled the section of river that the property is on Saturday and Sunday. It couldn't have been more convenient. We're excited to use the property for all of our programming this summer.

    Rustic but has everything you need for a great time. Very cool location with lots to do. The owner was super helpful and responsive. We'll be back for sure!

    Most enjoyable and very practical for our group of 9-10 canoeing course. Accommodation is simple and complete. Jason has worked hard on the property and it shows. Hew is also immediately available when needed. Thanks for a great 'base' for our program and we look forward to coming back.

    This is a roomy, tidy compound property with great river frontage and views of East Tennessee mountains. Far enough from town that the night sky stops you on the way from the car to the house. This is no ‘creek side cabin’ near Gatlinburg. The French Broad is your persistent neighbor on the south side, fascinating you from the porch and sometimes easing up into the yard, singing all night. The river is a great reason to stay here but has to be respected. The owner has done a great deal of work to provide a comfortable experience. There are well lit paths to the extra cabin and the bathroom. There are multiple places to enjoy being outside while protected from rain or wind. You can sit in front of a fireplace or around a campfire. The riverside swing is a treat. If you must have a five star hotel, keep driving. But if you want to really live by the river, with the wind, the stars, the mountains looming right there, and the constant call of the water, this is a great spot. After a few hours even the highway is an afterthought

    We enjoyed every minute of our stay here! The hosts were very responsive and thoughtful. They left a note and a toy for my little boy after I sent them a picture of the cabin he’d drawn. The cabin was decorated for Christmas, it was so cute, and my kids loved it! If you’re contemplating staying here, do it, you won’t regret it! It’s absolutely beautiful. We will definitely be back!

    Cozy, scenic and very private! Cabin and kitchen are well equipped. We enjoyed the fire place, swing on the river and the outdoor shower!! We can’t wait to visit again!! Thank you!!

    Great place to enjoy cookouts with the family. Good time fishing and some tubing.
  • - 7/31/2021

    Excellent property very well described by owner. Long river frontage with gentle slope to the river. Nice calm spot to take out kayaks right in front of the cabin. Make sure to use the covered deck with the fireplace. The property owner was great and very helpfull. Very nice stay.
  • - 7/28/2021

    This place was wonderful, if your looking for a getaway to nature, this is it. Butterflies and bumble bees. Even in the dead of summer it didn't feel that hot, very shaded. Most definitely will be going back!
  • - 7/16/2021

    Absolutely stunning views. Great property literally steps from the river! Will stay here again! Owners seemed to think of all the small but important things. Perfect for all ages. Steps are steep though :)

    Can't say enough good things about our stay here. We enjoyed our time together as a family. Spent most of our time outside by the water. We were able to catch fish and just over all make memories together. Best part had to be seeing our little ones running and catching fireflies. Definitely already taking about going back next year. Jason thank you for such great communication and hospitality!!
  • - 6/13/2021
