Rustic Family-Friendly Log Cabin in the Smoky Mountains, North Carolina

10/10 Excellent
"The property was perfect, the swing by the water was a great place to relax, and we often found ourselves out there, especially when the sun was going down. My wife and I recommend it for anyone who wants to be close enough to town for dinner and other activities without having to travel a great distance, but also far enough away to provide that serenity anyone who visits is looking for. The trees surrounding the property provide an air that keeps it cool, even when the sun is out, making it a great place for those who enjoy staying outside. Our only note is that we wish there was a guest book to be able to write about our experience, but in all, our stay was phenomenal, and we will be visiting again."
