Cute cabin home in the woods! Bring a 4-wheel drive (thank god we did) steep gravel road and driveway! Great communication with the host when I had trouble with the key code (operator error). Serene and very peaceful location close to the small town of Cashiers!!

Liked: Listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in
The photos of the property do wonders for the space. It’s cute and quaint but a lot to be desired.Our expectation of cleanliness was not met. So much so that my wife and I went out to purchase sheets of our own. Lots of dirt and grime, stray hairs that didn’t belong to us, random unsightly items (towels, Christmas decorations, garbage) stuffed into closets.There was no mention of the lack of cellular service at the location so getting checked in was a nightmare (download instructions before arrival).There was no mention of how absolutely terrible the gravel driveway is. Multiple deep potholes that bottomed out our SUV. Additionally, the driveway is extremely steep and the gravel is extremely loose, so do expect to lose traction.Overall I would not recommend staying here. The pictures are nice the weather in the area is immaculate but this property will make you wish you didn’t go.
