Right next to the river. Beautiful little home.
Ben Stroud · September 2026
Exactly as advertised and what I expected. Used as a base camp to fish the river and explore Dillsboro and into the GSMNP a little. 10/10 would do again.

Good stay

We had a relaxing stay!

As other reviews have said, the internet is pretty rough. As the TV is all streaming services, it was kind of difficult to adjust to no background noise at times. In other ways, it was great to disconnect. It would be handy if there was some kind of way to have multiple outlets in the loft. Charging 2 phones and 2 watches was a bit tricky when trying to keep with our normal routine. We made it work though. The rest was amazing. The location is perfect. The river is an amazing place to read a book next to. If you venture out, Forager's Canteen in Sylva has a wonderful chicken sandwich. We just happened to be there right before Thomas the Train days at GSMR. I was able to see Thomas drive by, which the teacher in me loves. I am also a huge fan of US Marshals/The Fugitive, so being across the river from the train wreck scene was super cool. We will definitely be back if we need a place to stay in Sylva.

No internet access throughout our entire 4 day stay. Though the team tried their best, there was still no access. I had to leave daily and spent most of my day at the library or the coffee shops in town just to be able to connect and work. It was not a relaxing or enjoyable stay. And, became too stressful that we considered leaving early.

it was a perfect spot for a one night trip… the place is fabulous and has everything you need…. and that’s not including the beautiful view on the river… wow just wow… can’t wait to come back

Great stay and location. If your wife likes long hot showers, a tiny home is not for you. For everyone else, there is plenty of hot water!
Relaxing!!
PATRICIA GONZALEZ · June 2025
It is a small but cozy cabin!
Great tiny home and location on the river!
Eliza Slate · June 2025
We had a great weekend getaway to this cute tiny home. The location was great and being able to stand on the porch and listen to the river was wonderful. The only negative thing I can say is that the ladder to get up into the loft is very steep. Other than that small detail, it was a wonderful experience! Would definitely stay again in the future.

Amazing stay. Great house very clean and nice. The only problem we had was the water smells funny so would bring drinking water other then that great place
Very nice
Stephen Jordon · April 2025
The water smells very bad when your trying to shower.
Would highly recommend!
Savannah Bewley · April 2025
We stayed here for a weekend getaway. The place was perfect for us. The ladder to get to the lofted bed was straight up and down so it was a little difficult to get up and down, I wished it was a little more angled for ease. But other than that it was a great stay! The host replied to us within 10 minutes and was very easy to communicate with!
Absolutely perfect!
Lisa Curry · April 2025
Couldn’t ask for anything more! Everything was exactly as described, super clean, close to job site, easiest check in/out, and communication with Leisr was exceptionally fast! Definitely a home away from home and a place I would definitely return to again!! Thank you Leisr Stays!!

My son and I loved staying here. The accommodations were perfect. Every morning I had my cup of coffee by the river. Everything in the tiny home was clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

Great stay for good price!

Overall nice little place. Was pretty comfortable for 2 people👍 Only complaint was that the water didn’t stay hot for very long. Other than that it was pleasant!
