They need to find cleaner who know how to clean…new pots & pans…new washer…mow the lawn
Cleaners know how to clean window sills that had mold on & spider webs in a lot of windows. They need to get new pots & pans. They were none there that were usable. I always carry pots & pans with us because I have dealt with this before. They need to get some there to fix washer. You can’t even sit down for a meal or watch a movie together. Without the washer making such a loud noise. Also the weeds were coming up thru the deck, the grass was not mowed behind the cabin…no making anything over the campfire & the front of the house had weeds growing taller than the porch.

Great stay away from everything
Property was just as described. Love that it was out of the way, even if it was up a hill. Great stay with all that we needed.

Beautiful view!
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The road is an adventure in itself, but with 4WD we had no trouble. We enjoyed the area each day then returned to the cabin each night for family dinners, game nights and s’mores. The view was amazing.

Great place on the mountain top
We enjoyed our stay here very much. House is well-appointed with a modern, well equipped kitchen, and everything you need from laundry detergent to a first aid kit. Very roomy and an excellent place for a family with 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths. (Loft has 3 beds). The view is fantastic and it’s very relaxing and quiet, but only about 20 minutes from the whitewater rafting areas. It’s also very close to Nantahala Lake , with a relaxing atmosphere and a great restaurant. It is a bit of a climb up the hill, but you’re fine with a 4WD vehicle and it’s worth it when you arrive. We loved this place and will be back!

Not bad. Enjoyed our time there.
They are not kidding about 4x4 or AWD vehicle. When I stay here again, I'll bring my own pots and pans. Teflon is flaking off on theirs. Pretty close to an easy section of the AT. Cute towns near by, good grocery store. Love the porch. Pictures on site are accurate. It's that pretty of a view.

Was a very nice cabin with a amazing view. Up in the woods and very private. No att cell service but good wi-fi. If it’s raining or snowing you will definitely need 4wd to get up to the cabin. It was very clean and and in good condition. The property manager Tracy was very very nice.

Such a BEAUTIFUL View
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here at Gator Ridge. The pictures online don't lie. The views are breathtaking, the porch is peaceful, and the cabin is so pleasantly comfortable, roomy and cozy all at the same time. The Kitchen had all the essentials and the grill was nice to have too. The porch was BY FAR my favorite spot. Gorgeous views 24/7, with rocking chairs, Adirondack chairs, and fans if you needed an extra breeze. The property manager/contact was so responsive and helpful before, during, and after - she's amazing! 4 Wheel or All wheel Drive is necessary, I wouldn't drive the road to the house with out that! We Highly recommend Whitewater Rafting and Ziplining at the NOC, hiking and waterfalls at Deep Creek Trail, Lunch at SnakShak and Ice Cream at Cornerstone Café in Bryson City. That was plenty to keep our family with 3 teenage boys entertained for 4 days, wish we could have stayed longer.
