The location of country acres is amazing!! We go to cherokee for the fishing and for the gambling. If that is your thing, this is the perfect place. This was the 2nd cabin we stayed in at the country acres loop and both were very clean, cozy and comfortable for myself and my family. I can't wait to go back. Thank you for everything

Very well appointed. Clean comfortable beds, hot shower, amazing sunset views. We were there 4 days with no complaints. Parking was small with 4 Harleys and a full size truck, but we made it work with no problems. Will definitely be back as it was affordable and comfortable.

The cabin was in the perfect location. It was nice and quiet. As far as cleanliness goes it was bad. My mother was downstairs staying and she walked from her room straight to bathroom next to her room and her white socks were black. The shower upstairs wouldn't drain right. So we all ended up using the shower downstairs. There was no dust pan or mop to clean up messes on the floor. I have OCD and this house gave me anxiety really bad. I will give it 3 stars instead of 5 bc of how nasty the floors were.

They moved us to another cabin. The fireplace didn't work. But at least it did have heat. The sheets had blood spots on them. But we had a good time .

Even though these cabins are grouped in the same tract, you don't have a next door neighbor. They are very spread apart at varying elevations, yet close to things. Kitchen was well equipped, but television viewing area was small for the six of us. Outside seating areas hadn't been blown or dusted so it was pretty dirty. There was a lot of sleeping rooms and the beds were comfortable. I wish we had brought some kleenex, as none was provided, so I had to use toilet paper. All in all a nice stay.

Home was nice and clean in a great location with beautiful grounds. Awesome place, would have been five stars easily, but the coffee maker was broken and a couple of other minor inconveniences which we didn’t elevate to vacasa to get fixed, but we’re there.

The perfect spot for a guys casino weekend. The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The cell service and internet worked fine. We will visit again!

Outdoor location and setting was really nice. We enjoyed the the outdoor fireplace.
Refrigerator in the kitchen was leaking water. We called Vacasa to report but no local maintenance came out. Showers would not drain properly when showers were taken.
TVs would not connect to RoKu. Wireless worked fine but that didn’t help the connection to the TV.
Previous renters or cleaning crew threw trash in the bin without bagging.

Bath towels were not clean (gross). Internet did not work, which meant we could not watch World Cup on the TV. The drainage in the upstairs bathroom shower and sink were subpar. Bathroom sink would fill up just while brushing teeth.
TV in the upstairs bedroom would not turn on.
Also a 10am checkout is ridiculous. We have been using this cabin for years and always really enjoyed it but it has been going downhill the past two times.
This cabin has been neglected. These are cheap and easy fixes. So there is no excuse.
We will not be returning.

Loved the land ! We took several walks around the entire road . The cows, lamas, donkeys and wild turkeys were a treat. The cabin is very nice and cozy . Especially loved the screened porch and fire pit outside . Cabin is comfortable and easy drive from Cherokee.

I really like the private drive around country acres.The cabin was spacious enough for me and my four grandchildren.It was close to town yet completely out of town! Definitely could speak to the cleaning team! Or I would give it Five stars!

The area is beautiful. Very quiet hilly loop around a pasture with about 6 cabins spaced several 100 yards apart. Would very much stay here again. Very log cabin feel with nice decor. The only thing is we needed to wash the two quilts (looked dirty) from the twin beds to use downstairs as blankets. Also the refrigerator has a leak somewhere cause there was water on the floor both mornings. Not a big tv watcher but I did try to turn it on but was unsuccessful. Did not try very hard to figure it out. Plenty of dishes etc in the kitchen although we needed to use a bathroom wash clothe as dish towel. Floors could have been cleaner. The smoke detectors worked very well , too well. Every time we cooked they went off. Took it off the wall and put it on the opened window sill easily fixed the problem. Even with the few negatives I would stay here again. The peaceful atmosphere was a big plus. We walked the loop each day and realized why there were pictures of llamas on our wall. We saw two llamas in the pasture along with donkeys and of course some cows. Beds were fine, grill worked good , ac good., nice views, gas stove, easily accessed from the main road, easy check in and overall great experience.

This cabin is in a great location. Outdoor adventure is close, Dollywood is a fun one-hour drive, and Cherokee and the National Park are practically in your back yard. We love the remote feel but the convenience of a grocery store and shopping close by. The cabin has all of the basics covered and we experienced only minor inconvenience with the home itself. June ‘22 was our second year here and we will be back again! If you have kids, the River park in Cherokee is not to be missed!

The cabin was comfy and well furnished. Easy drive to fishing, town, and the casino. We'll probably be staying here again.
The stairs to the loft were super steep and the TV was finicky, but we got it to work. Other than that, no complaints.

Beautiful, intimate setting and there isn't a bad view to be had anywhere on the 1st level. The pasture, variety of birds, and wildlife really adds something. Cabin was quite nice but, I'm on the fence of giving it three or four stars for the following reason: cleaning fees are exorbitant and borderline ridiculous. Especially considering you do so much of it yourself (stripping all the bedding, starting loads of linens, etc.). As a matter of fact, in doing so, I uncovered a massive yellow-brown stain on one of the downstairs mattresses. Similar stains on the couch upholstery on the living room and deck furniture. Considering the cleaning and other sundry fees make up almost a third of the total bill (nearly $1,000 for two nights) I'll consider somewhere else next year. Also, Vacasa encourages to download an app that never works to communicate any issues or questions...not a good system. The only reason I'm giving it four stars is because I happen to have run into the trash collector who was very friendly and conscientious. Had not that positive, personal interaction have happened I'd give the overall experience 3-stars

The cabin is lovely! Very comfortable for 6 adult and 2-3 children. We took 7 adults and the loft is a little challenging for adults but would be perfect for older children. It is updated and clean. Perfect location to go to all attractions nearby, GSM and Cherokee. The kitchen was well stocked, The campfire area was clean and ready for a fire, there was picnic table and another small table in the area so perfect to cook out and sit outside with the additional chairs.
The cows in the field across the house were a treat. They came up every evening. The view is pretty in the field.
We would have given the cabin a 5 but did not because we had adults in the loft and that was a challenge and to keep the loft cool enough to sleep in you have to turn the air down and the others are very cold to sleep. The downstairs sink and bathtub were slow to drain but did drain so none of these things would keep us from staying there again! Very nice and the price is a plus!
