  This small but cozy cabin was perfect for our anniversary trip. The cabin was clean and had all that we needed for a 5 day stay. Plenty of towels, paper towels, and dish soap. The only complaint we had was the master bedroom bed. It was extremely uncomfortable. I recommend a new mattress. The A/C unit kept the place very cool and comfortable even on the hottest of days.

  A quiet, remote cabin with all the amenities you could want for a quick getaway for a few days. Comfortable bed, plenty of alternate sleep spaces, and beautiful creek to fall to sleep to. Not far from Bryson City, which has lots of nature walks/hikes, and wonderful food to choose from for entertainment.

  Was mostly as advertised except for the proximity to the road which was noisy at times, but not to the point of discomfort. Weather being what it is, it rained and turned cold, preventing enjoyment of the deck and cooking out. But, we made the best of things, very much enjoyed our stay. No internet or cel service was a plus!!! We became unplugged for our time here.

  Belenda Y from Enterprise, Alabama recommends this vacation rental

  The small back deck was perfect for conversation and grilling. The view was breathtaking. There is no internet and no cell phone available. It was a struggle at first realizing our dependency on technology but we talked more than usual, we played cards, read and focused on the important things in life. Just what we needed.
  There is a gas station and a grocery store not too far away. Sufficient linens, towels, pots/pans and dishes. a standard coffee pot. Bring your necessities toilet paper, paper towels etc and your entertainment. We did not think about a radio so we had no music. We were used to our phones for that. A train goes by that you can barely see maybe once or twice a day but Not annoying.

  Loved to listen to the sound of the creek. Cabin had everything we needed. A little close to the road, but we knew that from other reviews. We brought a fan to drown out the occasional road traffic. Bed was comfortable. Wifi is available. Wish there was an access code to use it. As I think its only used for the phone line. Town and smokey mountain train was only 10 minutes away. We enjoyed our stay and the price was well worth the value you get.

  We had a great time at the cabin. Although it rained we had a very restful and peaceful time. The cabin was very cozy and clean and met all our needs. The little bed in the Living Room was nice to sleep on rather than the pull out couch.
  Although it was on the road the traffic was minimal and did not create any distractions at all. We enjoyed listening to the river and the small home cabin feel. Thank you for sharing this retreat.

  a guest from New Brockton, Alabama recommends this vacation rental

  Perfect location, easy to find, spotless and fresh inside with a truly cozy atmosphere right on that beautiful creek!!
  A bonus was seeing the train go by - late morning, (it won’t wake you up)!
  We are frequent visitors to Bryson City and call it our home away from home. We enjoy staying near the creek because of its ease to town, close to Nantahala Outdoor Center, and love the sound of the water as we sat on the deck. My husband specifically wanted to fish and he actually had much better luck there on the Alarka!
  You are literally just minutes to Ingles grocery store and town, but once at the cabin, you feel very remote.
  The cabin makes you feel like you just stepped into your favorite grandma’s home! Definitely cozy and charming, and very, very clean. For two people, there’s plenty of space. The bed is super comfy!
  The kitchen had everything we needed. Although we ate out most of the time at several of the yummy restaurants in Bryson City and NOC, I did cook breakfast and I had everything I needed.
  
  I would not recommend this to anyone with a small child or a dog that might try to escape. The road is very close to the home and the creek is literally out the back. I do recommend this as a fabulous couple’s getaway! What a relaxing and special retreat!
  We will be back!

  My family and I fell in love with this amazing cabin. There just aren't enough words to describe this place. The best part for us was no cell phone service. No kidding. It puts everything into perspective, we didn't want to leave. I hope this place is available the next time we go on vacation. It was a dream for us. Very clean and great location. Absolutely loved the stream. Thank you so much for this gem of a find.

  Really enjoyed this stay at cozy cabin on the creek. Just right for restful afternoons and a good nights rest between excursions. Kids enjoyed the creek behind the cabin and tubing at Deep Creek more than anything else we did.
  Yellow Rose has always been good to work with. Only suggestion I would have is to get newer mattresses for beds.
