About this chalet rental

Nestled in Qualla, this charming chalet for $129 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. A-Frame of Mind is a quiet a-frame that sits at 3000 sqft altitude on the side of the mountain off of Dick's creek. Even though it is not directly on the creek, you can see and hear it from the the home. The home boasts of sleeping space withe 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Master BD is an open air loft and has a king sized bed. The other 2 bedrooms are on the main level. The 2nd bedroom has a queen, and third bedroom has a daybed and twin sleeper. Plenty of common space either downstairs or up in the master loft that can fit twin air mattress. Even though it feels isolated, we are only 3 miles from Great Smoky Exspressway. We are only 15-20 minutes to Cherokee and Sylva, Blue Ridge Parkway and Bryson City. We are 30 minutes to Waynesville and Lake Junaluska. Asheville and the Highlands/Cashiers area are only 55 minutes. Entrance to the Smoky Mountains is just on the other side of Cherokee. Even though we are only 3 miles from the major hyw, the road is combination of 2 lane and single lane gravel road that follows dick’s creek up to the home. The gravel lane is 1.5 miles to the home. During the heavy rains in summer the road may have ruts. In the winter when there is heavy snow or ice parts of the road may be impassable unless you have a AWD. However, I do not have AWD and have not had issues accessing the home. Dicks creek is a DOT state maintained road and will be cleared as full time residents live in this area. It is a very scenic drive making you feel the seclusion. There are other rental home in the area, but this home sits perched above on the side of mountain adding to the seclusion. The driveway is long enough to fit 3 vehicles and pulls right up to the home, so very easily accessible. A-Frame of Mind is in rural location and the home has satellite internet access. The maximum data plan has been provided, however it is only intended for mail and social media. It is not intended for streaming TV or movies. PLEASE READ: I currently have a hot tub on the property for use by all my guests. Hot tubs can be difficult and expensive to maintain in the more secluded mountain areas. I will continue to maintain it, and most of the time have zero issue, please ask questions if you need. Please do not unplug.

We had a great stay to celebrate our daughter's 13th birthday. We vacation in the Smokies every year, and this is one of the better cabins we've stayed in. The only issue we had was that our daughter's allergies acted up a bit, probably because it was pet friendly. We usually try to avoid pet friendly cabins for this reason.

This A Frame is the best. Location is with in a short distance to anyplace you want to go. The home was clean and very inviting. Beds were very comfy. Book this place. I will stay again next year.

Have stayed in this house many times. Always a pleasure. Had many memories of our children staying here and hiking, fishing, etc. Last time staying here was 28 years ago. Many good changes. Too old now to navigate the house, but is wonderful for younger people. House will always have a special place in my heart.

We spent most of our time hiking and making sunrise and sunset photos so we were not in the cabin much but to come back to a nice cabin was relaxing.

We had an absolutely divine time at the house. Getting there was easy and not an issue with our FWD car, instructions provided were accurate and easy to follow so check in was a breeze. The house had been decorated for Christmas making the whole experience a bit more magical. The only negative thing I can say is from my end, we should have stayed longer to enjoy more time off. Thank you Jeff for such a lovely time and for making sure we had arrived without any issues!

Great cabin, fantastic owner, good location and well stocked. Everything you need is there - plenty of laundry detergent, dish soaps, garbage bags, cleaning supplies, firewood. The kitchen is perhaps the best stocked ever with many spices, dishes, utensils and even a crock pot. The photos can’t do this home justice - it is much bigger than we expected and the sensation of being in the trees is just amazing. I am super glad we took our 4 x 4 - the drive is an adventure but so well worth it to be secluded. The hot tub was oh so nice and the many games kept the family entertained. Thanks so much for a great vacation!!!!
