Recent Smoky Mountains, North Carolina vacation rental reviews

The views were awesome, the cabin was fantastic. The inside was just as seen in the photos. Clean and well maintained. There were no issues with the amenities or the facility. Plenty of movies, games, books, etc. Well stocked kitchen. Well off the beaten path but only a few minutes to town - grocery, fuel, etc. This is a must if you are in the area! Would definitely stay here again.
