Serenity, and proximity
I attended the national convention of American Indians. Therefore, I had work to do on a computer during my stay. I sat on the balcony overlooking the river, and found it to be the ideal place to do a bit of work. I took a few minutes on my first night there, walked a few steps to the river, and caught a trout. very close to the cherokee nation and the conference center at the casino hotel. It was wonderful.

My wife and I needed to unplug for a few days and decided on Cherokee, NC. We are from Kingsport, TN. We found this cabin and absolutely loved it. It's so cozy and secluded. Yet, still very close to everything Cherokee has to offer. The cabin is very comfy and perfect for couples. It has enough room to stretch and has all the necessities. At the same time it's cozy and comfortable. It's on the river and has an awesome back porch/deck for sitting, viewing and listening to the water. We spent most of our time there. It also has a dock on the water, which is nice. If you wish to unplug and not be bothered, this is the place. Day was very helpful and attentive. We appreciate her very much. She checked on us everyday through text. This experience was so refreshing. We will definitely go back in the future and we decided we will stay no other place. We really didn't want to leave but ya gotta adult. Thanks so much.

Fantastic view
The view from the deck over the river is fantastic. Very cozy but perfect for just two people that will not be spending much time inside. The driveway would be the only concern. If it had been wet I don’t believe our rear wheel drive vehicle would have made it out.

It was okay cabin was very clean. I have to say it was not what we expected was very small no table, no couch no where to put anything in the bathroom, it looked bigger online but overall the cabin was great, we did leave a day early to do some traveling.

Do Not Recommend
The property drive is so narrow it’s dangerous…mountain on one side and drop on the other with just a decorative fence. You CANNOT walk to river it’s too steep and dangerous. Also it’s at a river location where it’s deep not babbling and looks swampy. Did I mention we had to go back into town and buy toilet paper as there was none. There’s nowhere to sit except on the bed. I could go on and on. We started to just go get a hotel but did stay albeit we left a day early because I hated it so much.
