The grounds and the cabin were everything I could hope for. It felt like a safe haven for just me and I didn’t want to leave.

Very unique and fun home. Great jumping off location for the Cataloochee Valley in the Smoky Mountains NP. Very Clean and nicely equipped. In a private rural setting, but civilization (Waynesville) is only about 15 minutes away. This is a home where the owner pays a lot of attention to details, and it makes for a very enjoyable stay.

Unique cabin life We choose this property due to the unique value. Normally we choose due to location and accessibility. This cabin is located just down from the blueridge pkwy, Cherokee and lots of other scenic areas to explore. The cabin itself was perfect. We sat outside and enjoyed the small water feature and covered patio. The bathhouse was the wife’s favorite as it is completely up to date. The only thing I had an issue with is I’m 6’2” and the ceiling in the cabin when you walk in and over the bed is just at that. I clipped my head 2 times on the ceiling. Other than that it was a glorious experience

Amazing couple’s retreat! My husband and I stayed at Station 451 to celebrate our 15th anniversary and had the most amazing time reconnecting with each other and with nature. The place was immaculately clean, adorably decorated and very cozy and romantic. We loved the outdoor shower, the waterfall, the covered porch living space to drink coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evenings. Brooke thought of everything we would need to make our trip special. We truly enjoyed every moment at the caboose!
