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.

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.

Contact property owner a week ahead of time to tell her about an emergency situation and that I know we could not have a refund but if we could change our dates. She never acknowledged or answered my request. I paid for this trip completely in July. My son almost cut off all his fingers on his left hand and we were in Grady emergency room said I would send pictures or doctors info. NOTHING from her.

I loved staying here… Day was amazing with communication! We woke up one morning to the power out and we had already received a text from Day explaining a limb had fell on the power line and a time when the power would be back on. It’s a great place if your looking for a small romantic get away. I will definitely stay here again!

Very clean, small, unit but perfect for our needs and the location central to access to GSNP. Got to see 33 elk just barely inside the park and one in Cherokee roaming around. We ate at a local mexican locale, very nice and once in Bryson City at the Iron Wok. Between the two go for the mexican, but the Iron Wok close runner-up. Would rent again.

Miss Day is a thoughtful person - her property reflects, no doubt, her good attributes. The cabin was welcoming and her communicating in checking in on us, from to time, felt sincere. Upon arrival the rain was pounding, the Oconaluftee River was high and beautifully raging. What a view from above the river under the covered porch! Evening prayers seemed more meaningful. Next day the sun was out - fishing and visiting the center of town was perfect. Evening was spent in prayer and watching so many fireflies. If you're looking to run away from chaos and such, contact Miss Day.

We were very pleased with cabin # 75. Great location and plenty of privacy. The cabin was clean, neat and beautifully decorated. Loved the fishing dock that was located just steps away from our cabin! We will definitely plan a return trip in the future. We would highly recommend. Our host Day, was easily accessible and very friendly 😊

Definitely smaller than I expected and could more accurately be described as a studio. It was cozy and comfortable for the two of us for two nights, but an extended stay would have been challenging. We enjoyed having easy access to the lake/river. Very conveniently located.
5.0
We were pleased to find how secluded the property was despite being close to other homes. It was wonderful being on the river and having the opportunity to fish whenever we wanted. This property was closely located to Bryson City and Cherokee which was ideal for dinner plans and souvenir shops. This was such a charming place and we will gladly visit again!

This rental cabin is a single room plus kitchenette and bath. There is a back porch overlooking the beautiful Oconaluftee River. On Friday night/Saturday morning the porch was really pleasant, all we heard was birdsong. Saturday evening/Sunday morning the house across the river was occupied and the sound really carries. Future visitors may want to be aware that the bed is full-sized and has a very soft mattress.

Property is a quaint small cabin for couples.

The Love Nest proved to be the perfect getaway for us! The cabin is absolutely charming in every way and we loved the porch overlooking the beautiful river. The property is conveniently located almost precisely between Cherokee and Bryson City with each being a short drive away.
Day was a wonderful host who communicated well and was very helpful.

Enjoyed the cabin. Midwinter not a good time to be there. I think it would be excellent in spring, summer, or autumn

The cabin was described accurately. It was smaller than I thought it would be, but perfect for a couple. The river view was beautiful and it was very private.

The wildlife was amazing: elk, beavers, duck , geese, white squirrel! I sat on the floating dock every morning and it was so tranquil! The leaves had barely started to turn when I arrived but by the time I left 5 days later they had turned enough to make a beautiful scenery no matter which way I looked. One thing, if you wear make-up bring a lighted mirror with you. But I couldn’t have asked for a better place you stay !

This is an excellent property. The owners out a lot of love and attention to the details. Easy in, easy out, had magnificent view of Oconaluftee River. We watched river otters from our balcony playing in the river. Will re book with this property! Excellent!

Right on the river - great for fishing or hanging out. The cabin had it's own dock/sitting area on the water, which was nice. Property manager made sure we received her directions and followed up after arrival to make sure we had arrived okay, see if we needed anything, etc - which was nice. Perfect fit size wise for a couple (but no more than that).

From check in all the way to check out was awesome. The quiet gently flowing river and the overlook from the cover porch with the chairs made us want to stay there the whole time. Pictures don't do the beautiful property justice.

We were looking for some "peace and quiet" and that is exactly what we got and SO MUCH MORE! The cabin was cozy and so very clean, with a super comfy bed, and a porch overlooking the river where we sat and had our morning tea and coffee. There was also a dock we could sit on and watch the beavers, otters, ducks, and other birds and listen to the bullfrogs and other frogs that had so many different sounds! One night we were late getting to bed and looked outside at a zillion fireflies outside the windows and it was like stars sparkling all around us! So close to so many attractions but far enough that we felt we were in a world of our own! We can't say enough about this magical place! The host was wonderful and was always there for us when we needed her and she made us feel very comfortable about contacting her whenever we had questions or needed information about the area. We will DEFINITELY be back again, it was so amazing!
