The cabin had everything you needed. The porch was great for evening relaxing and playing games. Only suggestion for pet owners, bring a doggie gate for main steps onto the porch. Will come and stay again.

The Lazy Moose was a little gem in the mountains. No stone left unturned. Once you come though the gates you are welcomed my the cutest donkey which our 5 yr old loved. He was a vocal friend for sure. Then when you arrived at the cabin the front porch was welcoming and the kids loved all of the outdoor games! The inside was clean and perfect. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook great meals for the weekend- even snacks to help hold over the kids the first night. The puzzles were fun at night and the fire pit was perfect sized. Our middle daughter loved exploring the grounds and found all kinds of nature to take home! The beds and pillows were comfortable. The couches were too. The TVs were only used late at night when everyone was winding down. This cabin was close to the park which we loved and spent a few days hiking. Overall this was a wonderful cabin and the hosts were easy to work with.

Lovely Cabin

Cabin is wonderful and clean. However, listing and Property Manager showed fenced yard as larger than it was. Our dog loves to play ball and there was not enough space and no place else to go that we knew of. Also, the roads leading up to cabin are too narrow for my taste and if a car is coming from another direction, it is scary. I had expressed my concern to the PM about this before arriving. It was not a piece of cake to me. So, if this doesn’t bother you, I highly recommend this cabin. Lovely, clean and fully equipped

Very clean, lovely cabin- right off the interstate so a bit of a drive to anything. No trash service at all- you have to take your own trash to the dump- which is closed on Sunday- be warned if you are a weekend guest with pets. Cabin itself is excellent, plenty of supplies and great views, peaceful area excellent for relaxing.

Decent but with some flaws

We stayed at this log cabin with our dog for four nights. I probably wouldn't choose to stay here again, but mostly due to personal preferences. The pros: the cabin is very spacious with nice, comfortable places to gather. We enjoyed playing the provided board games and the gas fireplace. The property is quite private, surrounded by trees, with birds flittering about and fresh clean mountain air. The queen bed in the second bedroom was very comfortable (nice and firm). Folks who like a very soft bed will love the King bed in the master. Both bathrooms were very nice. Good coffee options with a drip and a Keurig. The cons: Although the kitchen is large, it is mostly stocked with cheap teflon pots and pans. I'd have brought our own if I'd known. There rest of the provided supplies were fine though. We were there in October, during absolutely gorgeous sunny fall weather, but there was nowhere on the property to sit and enjoy the sun at any time during the day. The shape of the house and the steep and deep covered porches make everything inside and outside the house very dark (at least in mid-October). The backyard was completely shady all day and is the size of a small courtyard with mostly gravel and a very small section of grass along the edge. Sitting up above one of the main gravel roads in the community, the traffic noise was considerable as more people came up for the weekend. The hosts were always quick to respond and made the check-in and check-out process very easy.

Beautiful Cabin

My family came to Waynesville for a wedding but we decided to stay a week and make the most of the area. The cabin was a perfect place for my family and pups and like so many others said, it was well stocked. There was nothing I needed that wasn’t in that cabin. The neighborhood was nice too and my kids loved the donkey at the gate of the community. Overall, the cabin was perfect for us and exactly what we needed. If we ever come back down, we’d definitely choose to stay here again.
