Nicky and Rob were warm, welcoming, and gracious hosts! We had a wonderful and restful stay at their beautiful and comfortable Forest Cabin. We felt instantly relaxed upon arriving and taking in the incredible view and tranquility. The attention to detail, their availability for questions, and their kind nature made for a very special stay. They went out of their way to make a list of stroller friendly hikes nearby, and make delicious recommendations for dining and markets. It is obvious they love their home, hosting others, and caring for their dogs and those in their community. If you get a chance, try their homemade honey (delicious!). We found the cinnamon honey especially addictive! We highly recommend the Smoky Mountain Retreat Forest Cabin! We look forward to staying again.
