Summary: Everything you could

Kay H. Aug 31, 2024 01:09:47 AM

Summary: This cabin was perfect for me, my husband and sister-in-law to stay. We had our coffee on the porch each morning with the sound of the creek right beside the house, and enjoyed a fire in the fire pit each evening. We went to Andrews and rode and rail bikes one day and went to Bryson City and went tubing the next day. Great trip. perfect location. We will be back!

gary m. Aug 4, 2024 05:57:30 AM

Summary: too many steps up stairs (18) when you are 75 and not well. Had to sleep on couch. No WIFI couldn't watch any good channels/stations. Not too much around close to go too. Was clean Left (2) days early.

J W. Jun 28, 2024 03:28:58 AM

Summary: My wife and I visit the area annually and bring our dog. The cabin has a great location and is well kept. We were content with the accommodations.

Tim H. Jun 22, 2024 04:12:17 AM

Summary: We had a great stay at the Running Branch Lodge. The place is just as advertised; secluded in the woods, quite & peaceful with the stream babbling in the background. The area surrounding Topton, NC is awesome, so many views of the mountains & streams. If you like rafting or fly fishing this is the spot.

Chad H. May 22, 2024 02:32:04 AM

Summary: My friends and I came to the area for a fly fishing trip in the Nantahala. The cabin was very clean and comfortable and the location was perfect with access to the river just minutes away to the lower river and the delayed harvest section. The cabin has a nice wrap around patio to chill and listen to the relaxing creek just below and also made good use of the grill. I look forward to returning to this area and will book again if available.

Summary: Ana was fantastic! The house was spotless and just as described. We unfortunately lost our key and they were quick to respond and help us through the situation. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Shay M. Jan 20, 2024 02:56:19 AM

Summary: My husband and I came to celebrate his birthday and our anniversary and it was everything that we wanted. It snowed and was so magical especially with the flowing creek. Due to the weather we had to cut our stay short but we’ll definitely be back.

Susan L. Jan 9, 2024 12:55:32 AM

Summary: Loved this cabin. Loved hearing and seeing the little creek beside the cabin. Beautiful inside with all we needed to enjoy our stay. Would go back again and highly recommend!

Suzanne C. Jan 1, 2024 01:00:29 PM

Summary: Absolutely amazing! This cabin was perfect. It was better than described! We couldn't believe this was our cabin for the week when we pulled up! It was beautiful! Almost totally secluded in a valley. We never saw anybody the whole time we were there. Sitting on the wrap-around porch in the morning's and evening's watching and listening to the babbling brook that runs right in front of the cabin was so peaceful. We will be back every year. Thank you so much for a perfect vacation!
