WCU visit

Cullowhee is becoming a 2nd home. Grandaughter is attending this coming year. This beautiful home was exactly what I needed. The mountain was beautiful. The road up to the cabin was very well maintained, such that you did only need a car to access cabin. Bird feeders created a busy picture perfect of numerous birds.. Well stocked kitchen. Comfortable beds. Cant say enough. I definitely want to visit again.

We had the best time at Tranquility Cabin. So clean with all the amenities of a family home. The kids enjoyed roasting marshmallows, finding tadpoles, birdwatching, and playing cornhole. We hope to visit again!

Amazing house in very private setting

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Tranquility Cabin! Plenty of space for everyone to relax and all of the amenities of home, plus a few extras. We spent lots of time by the fire pit and enjoying the views from the yard. We'd love to come again!

Wonderful Again !

The cabin was immaculate and had everything we needed. We enjoyed wonderful sits on the porch and by the fire pit. The owners, Steve and Angie, are awesome. Communications before, during, and after the stay. If you want to enjoy an awesome cabin, and the fresh air of the outdoors, book this one. Additionally, grocer’s and other retail stores are nearby if needed. Love this place !!

Tranquility Cabin lived up to its name!

The cabin is wonderfully secluded, quiet, and fully equipped with everything you could want. Hosts Angie and Steve were incredibly helpful in all ways, especially with suggestions of places to hike and see wonderful views -- especially appreciated just before the threatened government shutdown that would have closed GSMNP. The local towns have interesting stores, cafes and ice cream shops. Try Sippers in Maggie Valley for fabulous coffees and hot chocolate. We left relaxed, refreshed and delighted with Angie and Steve's kindness.

The property is magnificent. The cabin is equipped with every imaginable home comfort. The landscape, and the woods around the cabin are beautiful. We also enjoyed the wildlife. Steve and Angie provided lots of information on the activities in town and around. They were very responsive and immediately answered any question we had. We would love to come back.

Fall Beauty

My husband and I had a great time at the cabin. It was tucked away on the mountain side away from others yet close enough it wasn’t a bother to go into town. The fall foliage was gorgeous while we were there. It was only 1 hour from Asheville and even closer to other adorable towns that we visited like Waynesville and Dillsboro. The cabin was spacious and comfortable. It had all the amenities that we needed. We had two fires in the outdoor fire pit while enjoying the beautiful sunset.

Great mountain getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It is not false advertising that the name is Tranquility cabin. This was by far the cleanest place my family has stayed in. We have a toddler, so toys get everywhere, and there wasn’t a dust bunny or dirt to be had. It’s a nice area, and while it rained most of the time we were there we didn’t feel cramped or trapped. The porch was great to be able to sit and watch the birds at the feeder, the wild turkeys wandering through the property, the rain and the mist. It was quiet and peaceful. We will be staying here again next time we head up that way!
