Clean and beautiful
Cabin was beautiful, as was the view. This was a family trip consistent with two families ( total of 4 children 8-11yo). We would stay at the property again. Only issue is that the outside trash cans were full upon arrival and there were bear sightings so we had to keep the trash inside. Along with the fact that there weren’t enough towels for everyone.

Spring break in the mountains
Our stay was great, the views from the cabin were amazing. The cabin had everything our family needed. Clean and fresh sheets and towels.Did a lot of cooking and some baking.Kitchen was stocked pretty well with pots, pans, baking pans & sheets. Good supplies of spices except for salt and pepper.There were some issues with the gas grill having only one working burner and the awning didn’t not work ☹️ it would have made grilling so much easier and comfortable. Use the fire pit almost every single night we spend there We found firewood outside of Great Smoky Mountain Park for $5 a bundle😃

Weekend of fun with friends
Great weekend with my husband and 2 other couples. Cabin had 360 views, just beautiful. Plenty of room for us to be together or apart. Cabin was so clean and had everything needed for us to cook or grill. About 15 minutes to Cherokee and 20 minutes to Bryson City

Big Sky Cabin fun!
I would definitely recommend and look forward to returning. Everything was clean and operational with the exception of the main floor AC unit. Vacasa had someone come out the next day to fix it. The view is stunning. As others stated, the drive to the house is steep and single lane but once you do it once it’s not that bad. There is plenty of bedding and towels. It was stocked really well. Wifi worked well, as well as the TV. Close to the casino and a lot of Cherokee Native American /Tribal land culture shopping. Tips: 1. When entering there’s a really cute sign that cleverly request you don’t wear shoes in the house, so pack house slippers or socks and easy some easy slides/crocs if you’re going to going in and out. 2. Turn on the water when you come inside. The instructions are on the fridge at the time of this review. 3. Sound does travel very well in the house. White noise is helpful at night. 4. Traveling with kids under 2? The stairs are too wide for a standard lower priced baby gate. 5. Also, the Stairs are open under each step. Caution for tiny crawlers. Check lost toys before you leave. 6. There’s a Food Lion grocery store shopping center about 15 minutes away. This shopping center has everything you need. 7. Coming in late at night might be hard. Just remember to keep to the right, you’ll get there. Suggestion to owner: retractable Baby gate on the stairs.

Amazing House and Views
This house was great! The drive up the mountain can cause a little anxiety, but it is well worth the views once you reach the top. We did however run into a couple of issues once we got there. When we arrived the door to the cabin was wide open. Not sure if the cleaning crew forgot to close it after they left or what. The dishwasher was throwing an error so we had to was dished by hand. No big deal. We did report it to Vacasa and they said they were going to send someone out to fix it. Most of the trash cans were already full so it was a little challenging try to get all our trash in the bins. Makes sense though. I can't imagine trash being picked up every week. None of that would stop me from going back. This house and the views are well worth it. The sunset over the mountain tops was perfect. 5 stars all day long.

Christmas at the perfect cabin!
It was a rough year for my family. My dad battling cancer has been a journey and we have gone through a lot together. We really needed this cabin to be a positive add to our much needed time together. It exceeded our expectations and more. Vacasa was great, but what made it all special was the owner’s personal touch into making sure this cabin felt like home. We found Christmas and hospitality in every corner! It was perfect and we are so grateful! My family and I will happily return.

Once you get past the steep mountain drive to reach the beautiful cabin, we had a wonderful family gathering with ample accommodations. We will return for other family getaways for sure.

The perfect view!
We are a family of 6 and stayed for a week. Absolutely beautiful views and cozy cabin. The road up is steep but not a problem. Our Tahoe made it just fine without 4 x 4. We saw 3 bears, several elk, and turkeys during our trip around town. 5 stars all around. Stocked well and we even added a couple nights to our stay with just a phone call. Definitely will return.

Incredible Views, but Very Thin Walls
This property has amazing view from all angles! The road is pretty sketchy to drive on to get to the house, but it is worth it. Be aware that the walls in the house are VERY thin. Guest upstairs can hear everything on all levels and vice versa. Also, one of the towels had dried up hair from the previous visitors. Other than these issue, the property is amazing!

Cabin was amazing with an amazing view
The cabin was amazing and so was the view great place for family time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Well equipped with all essentials the only negative experience that we encountered was that there seemed to be a takeover of 🐞 ladybugs 🐞 we aren’t exactly city people that are intolerant to wildlife but there seemed to be an excess amount of them flying around during dinner time

Wonderful stay
Property was beautiful. The house could have used a deeper cleaning but surface was good. Need to get under couches. And need an exterminator because there were a lot of lady bugs. Need to purge the kitchen. Less is more. Decor could use some updating. But overall it was very nice.

Best setting I’ve seen.
The house was large and inviting - with a Christmas tree!!!! The kitchen was great. We had come up to do a belated Thanksgiving with my daughter & her husband. So a spacious kitchen was necessary for 5 people to cook in. Couldn’t have picked a better place for our getaway.

Amazing View
Awesome cabin perfect for multiple families as each floor (3) has its own bathroom. The view from the cabin was amazing. Probably best I have ever seen. Drive up is pretty steep and twisted, but paved all the way. 2 wheel drive was fine as there was no ice or snow. Only negative was there were some bugs. Lots of ladybugs especially. Great stay and would stay again.
