This large mountain cabin is hidden in the Cowee Valley. It has plenty of room and the views are incredible. The hot tub overlooking the valley is the highlight as well as the game room downstairs. We highly recommend staying here.

The cabin is excellent! The road to get there is a little steep and twisty, but that’s true about most mountain cabins with a view. The back porch was perfect. If we had been there in the summer, that’s where we would have gathered. We came with our adult children and my mother. There was plenty of space to be together and also to be apart. The basement game room was a huge hit. The “kids” connected their switch to the tv for games. There was also many games of pool, foosball and Pac-Man/galaga/burgertime. The long table in the kitchen was great for meals and board games. We also used the hot tub and fire pit. The one time there was an issue, the owner had it fixed in a timely manner. We hiked, went to Biltmore for a day, and just enjoyed the company. Great place, as expected, would definitely return!

Great house and our family of 14 really enjoyed it. In the area to ride the Polar Express train. Steep driveway with switchbacks scared some, but we made it.

This was our second trip to this beautiful cabin. The owner has always contacted me quickly for any questions I've had. The cabin is always super clean when we arrive. This is the perfect place to get away for a few days with friends and family. Cannot wait until we can plan our next trip.
