Absolutely charming loft with everything we needed for a few nights away! The owners communicated well with us before our stay and were there if needed, but allowed us our privacy. All kinds of cool towns and great food super close! Highly recommend this location to anyone!!!

Very cozy and comfy, peaceful location. Host was kind and informative, and let us meet and pet the resident goats, chickens,geese, and farmcat. We were in town for one night only, but enjoyed our stay. Would definitely recommend.

Quiet and Quaint
We loved everything about this property. It was perfect for our overnight stay. Everything was very clean and smelled really good. The location was perfect. We were very close to down town Dillsboro and were able to hit some of the shops and have dinner. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for an awesome stay!

If you want a bona-fide hot cup of coffee on a cabin porch with crisp mountain morning air. This is the place.

Loft
The accommodations were as described and worked well for attending a weekend wedding. It would be great if there were a trail to walk to town from the loft.

Perfect Fall Trip
My husband and I stayed for three nights at this perfect place. The Loft was perfect before we ever walked in. Beautiful flowers were blooming outside the door and a pumpkin was on the front steps. The inside of the Loft was so cozy and clean. The furnishing were very nice and the bed was very comfortable. The artwork in the walls was so pretty. We had everything we needed for our stay. The animals were so welcoming and we loved spending time with the chickens, geese and goats. Tessa was so kind and even told
us that we could check out later since no other guests were checking in the next day. I can see why this place got a 5 Star rating. It was absolutely perfect. We will definitely be making a return trip. Thank you Tessa for kind your hospitality.

Lovely Little Cabin
We had a wonderful stay in the Dillsboro cabin/loft. My kids love the friendly farm animals. Our hosts were perfectly hospitable and even spent a while talking with the kids about all of the animals. Downtown Dillsboro is within walking distance, downtown Sylva is a 5-10 minute drive, and if you like fishing like my son, there is a river that is about a 3 minute walk away.

Cozy cottage- very cute and comfortable!
A very pleasant time. Cottage is cozy and well kept, close to downtown Dillsboro. Check in was easy. Interesting fact: 1993 Movie “The Fugitive” was filmed half mile away and the bus/train wreckage is still there to view. Super cool!
