Clean cabin, good host, average view
The cabin itself was very clean! We stayed a month and opted for mid stay cleans and the cleaning staff was delightful. Communication with the host was good and the team was friendly. The only “mark” I’d give this listing is that the view is very limited in summer - for what we paid and based on listing pictures we thought it would be better. Overall tho, great stay.

Beautiful comfortable cabin and good location. All appliances and amenities in working order. Clean orderly cabin, however it needed to be dusted. Management needs to look at replacing light bulbs throughout that are burned out. You also are expected to go through cabin and mark down anything wrong so you aren’t charged. I found this to be daunting and called several times with things I found. Understand why this is a policy but have never had to do anything like this with other vrbo rentals. Would definitely stay here again.

This cabin was so clean which is at the top of my list when looking for a cabin. It's spacious for 4 people. My husband had to work while we were there and the loft was perfect for that. The directions were spot on for getting to the cabin. The last bit of getting there is on a gravel road on an incline but it wasn't difficult to navigate. The cabin sits above a farm with horses and we loved listening to them in the evening. The outside fireplace was wonderful! We made fires almost every evening. My family has stayed in this area at least 6 times and this cabin was the nicest by far and some that we rented were in the same price range. It was definitely worth the money.

Bryson NC is a great option when traveling in to The Great Smoky Mountain National Park” it’s a beautiful small town nestled Just minutes away from the National Park surrounded by Rivers waterfalls, the town offers excellent gastronomic selection as well as World class brewery “Mountain Layers Brewing Company”, The Chillin’time Cabin Is the ideal place to stay no doubts, not only extremely cozy, very well decorated, but the Location is unique on top of a mountain with amazing Views, secluded and at the same time just minutes away from every attraction in the area, the large terrace with rocket chairs just facing a fire place is very special for gathering, panoramic windows around the living area are something else !! We came for a short vacation and decently will come back!!
