Hartford USA Raft Hotels

"Host was good. Definitely need 4wd to get up the hill to the cabin. "

"The cabin was beautifully laid out, so much more space than what was expected. Great amenities, loved that each floor had its own coffee maker. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The wrap around porch, hot tub, table top fire pit (ran out of propane during first use but was really nice) and grilling space was phenomenal. Really enjoyed the space. We did play our turtle box and got a noise complaint at the fire pit outside, whoopsie. So definitely keep it quiet but that didnt bother us. "

"Great location, charming cabin. We LOVED the outdoor space even though it was too cold to enjoy it long. This is absolutely somewhere we would rent again. It was a bit of a drive to get into the “tourist” areas of the mountains, but we were aware of that beforehand and thankful for a flat drive in/out. It was a very quiet peaceful neighborhood, the hot tub was great, and we even saw Turkey one evening from the back porch. "

"Absolutely gorgeous. "

"This place is amazing! We got plenty of information well before arriving so we could review and be prepared. The cabin is ADORABLE. You are truly staying in someone's home away from home. It was decorated so beautifully, even with extra fall and Thanksgiving details. If I didn't live 1500 miles away, I would come back every season to see the new decorations. The owner must be a painter, or appreciate art because there were several hand painted antiques with beautiful mountain scenes, I really loved the winter scene on the hand saw over the fire place. The kitchen was perfect, 12 cup basket coffee maker (filters were there for our visit) blender, crockpot, plenty of pots and pans and dishes. I know some reviews complained about doing the dishes, but this normal in a rental and if you imagine your friend is letting you stay at thier place, you would want to treat it with the respect it deserves. The living room and couch are so comfortable I feel asleep there 3 times in two days. We had a snowy day and the cabin has plenty of cozy blankets and quilts to snuggle up in. The heat worked so fast that one or two degrees made a difference you could feel right away. Spacious bathroom for a cabin, clean and new. Sparrows Nest is clearly someone's pride and joy. Sadly, no bears visited us desite leaving several picnic baskets and a "welcome bears" greeting card out for them.If you read old reviews, you might see complaints, but every single thing had been addressed"

"We had a great stay everything was as expected. A clean unit a beautiful quiet setting. "

"Amazing cabin the outdoor amenities were amazing Very clean nice comfortable furniture You will not be disappointed staying hereGreat place"

"We enjoyed our brief stay at this lovely tiny home with beautiful views of the Pigeon River. The owners thought of everything we would need and I loved the decor! Walkable trails just steps away and close to favorite trails in the Smokies. We will be back!"

"The scenery was amazing, the cabin was very clean and had everything we needed, and the hosts were very kind and helpful. Would absolutely recommend."
