We had an amazing time and even had a very friendly neighborhood cat to entertain us . Only thing that was not having a washer\dryer. more so the dryer for the towels because of the hot tub and the wet towels cause we were getting back in LOL. thanks so much have already shared a video to my socials about it!

Ashlee Eco-Villa Two: Grounded

“I can’t say how awesome this place is! ”
Everything was as described, plus some amazing amenities not listed. It was clean, modern, yet rustic, beautiful, comfortable, relaxing, private, but still close to stores and restaurants. Really amazing time! Can’t wait to return!!! 🙂

Shaquanna Eco-Villa One: Beginning

“Just DREAMY.”
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the peace, nature, and privacy at Elevation. We cooked all of our meals, although there are plenty of restaurants nearby. We loved how maintained and easily marked the trails were. The weather was perfect, so the glass doors were open most of our stay. The pavilion between the two container homes is spectacular. Elevation is, for sure, one of our favorite airbnbs.

Angie Eco-Villa Three: Elevation

“The basecamp airbnb was the perfect weekend getaway.”
The cabin was great and perfect for a relaxing time. Rena and John provided great recommendations for the local area and the home had everything we needed. It's located along the gorgeous Little Tennessee River and is in good proximity to the tail of the dragon. The airbnb sits on top of a hill with a steep rocky dirt drive way. Our cars were fine, but this is something to be cautious of. Overall we had a great time and had no complaints. Thank you very much for a fantastic trip!
