Great stay

In Cherokee for 3 days to trout fish. Emily’s Place was a great place. House was very clean and comfortable. Not far from where we normally fish and just a few miles to town and restaurants. Very peaceful to sit on the porch and listen to the Raven’s Fork River, below. Had all the amenities that we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Definitely will stay there again.

Cute cabin

The cabin was perfect for 2 people or 2 adults with 2 kids. It was in a very quiet area but very close to the beautiful little town of Cherokee. The river was right across the rode. You could definitely hear it but there was no view. Maybe in the winter there could be a view when the trees are bare. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was nice. Jo was very responsive when we were having problems with the internet. There’s lots to do in the area.

Very quaint and nice location, but the address is a little off

My girlfriend and I had a great stay. We went during the off season, so many attractions were either closed or under maintenance, but we still had a blast. My only qualm was that the listed address threw my gps for a loop. For future guests, try clicking on the image above the address instead. This should give you coordinates that will take you to the correct road. Beyond that, a great stay and no doubt a future booking should my girlfriend and I come back to Cherokee.

Quiet and relaxing home on the SIDE of mountain.

Let’s start with positives. Home was 4/5⭐️ clean. Tons of towels and extra blankets. Beds were comfortable queen bed softer than the smaller, double. Fully equipped kitchen with all you needed. Plenty of toiletries. Nicely decorated. Not far from town, stream for fishing, or entrance to Parkway. Easy to locate and access. Owners were easily accessible and kept good communication. Negatives: —driveway is steep! Would not be a big deal, we are in the mountains after-all. But we trailered our motorcycle and it was EXTREMELY tricky to maneuver to get it backed in and the bike unloaded! Thank goodness Husband is amazing at backing a trailer and his truck is a beast to pull it up the hill. It was even more interesting getting the bike back up the hill after riding. —-didn’t like seeing dirty towels in basket in bathroom from previous visitors or maids? —dusty behind and around tv, windows and sills, and shelves in laundry (wouldn’t have noticed had i not missed trash can and dropped something) —-cell service was limited and wifi was not connecting, although owner gave his multiple user and passwords, nothing worked. Again we are in mountains but we had a sick grandson at home so better communication would have been ideal. Stilll a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and would visit again, without the bike! Much needed RnR for my husband and myself. Thank you.

The property was very clean and just as described. The beds and the house were very comfortable and served us well as we fly fished for the long weekend. Perfect for two fishermen. The house was in a great location to fish the trophy waters and others. Very close to town, the fly shop, and restaurants. We will definitely be back.
