EAGLE'S PERCH, PEACEFUL MOUNTAINTOP LOG HOME, HOT TUB, SATELLITETV

We had lots of color and great weather for our stay at Eagle's Perch. We saw the eagle fly over our first afternoon there and a pair of them were perched along the river during the week. We saw deer crossing the river and a flock of wild turkeys. The views from the back deck were amazing and the early morning fog floating above the river was fun to watch. At night we enjoyed the hot tub and watching the stars. The cabin is a great place to get away and enjoy the quiet and beauty of nature. The property is clean, well-maintained and has a warm cozy feel to it. The living room has comfortable furniture and a wood burning fireplace, the kitchen is a dream to cook in. The driveway is a little intimidating the first time up when you are from a relatively flat area of the country, but not hard to navigate. We would recommend it to our friends and relatives. The owners are great and very helpful.
There are plenty of activities just in the area, lots of fall festivals, interesting shops, rafting, and hiking.

We had a wonderful weekend at your cabin. The views were amazing, the hot tub was so relaxing and the beds were super comfortable! Our families so enjoyed the spacious family room where we were able to watch movies and play games. Everything was clean and well maintained.

We love being on top of the mountain and enjoyed exploring Bryson City, the Road to Nowhere (& the tunnel) and even walked part of the Appalachian Trail!

We felt so blessed to be able to relax in such beautiful surroundings. Great memories were made this weekend. An experience we'll not soon forget!

Thank you for making everything so easy for us (especially the escort to the cabin).

Our family of 5 enjoyed two nights at Christmas at this cabin. We expected great views, especially from the hot tub. What was better than expected was the size of the great room that continues into the kitchen. The appliances were much better than ours at home so I hope my wife didn't get too used to them! The large deck was great and the windows across the back of the cabin made for great views from inside as well.

Dave, the owner, met us for the drive to the cabin in his Miata which was good because I kept reminding my wife on the way up that if he can do this in a Miata, I can do it in the minivan! He gave us a quick tour of the house and we were ready to go.

Although there are a few small things mentioned above, this is a very nice cabin - better and bigger than the pictures indicate. If you want to get away from it all, this is a great spot.

A few bits of advice to future renters. We didn't get snow for Christmas (we are transplanted Chicagoans so this was our original reason for renting a mountain cabin) which may have turned out to be good for us. The single lane gravel road is pretty steep and the driveway up to the house is especially steep. If there is too much snow or any ice, I imagine a 4 wheel drive could be necessary to get to the top. The grill out front (picture it off to your right in the front view of the house) is a little inconveniently located, but more importantly it is charcoal, and you should bring your own. The main fireplace is wood burning, which was great and put out a lot of heat, but the wood supply was pretty wet and rotting, so you might want to bring a dry bundle or two to make sure you can get it started up. Because it is so remote, your cell phone might not work. There is a phone in the cabin, although we didn't try it. The hot tub doesn't get very hot. It was perfect for the kids although Mom and I would have liked it a little hotter for our last dip on a cold night. The outside grounds could use a little gardening and cleanup, but we didn't spend much time in the driveway so it is quickly forgotten once you are inside.
