Anthony, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved the place overall! I feel there should be another set of stairs at the other end of the cabin to make entering the 3rd cabin a lot less noisy for others staying.
Lisa, 4-night trip

The atmosphere, layout, property as a whole was amazing. My sister and I had so much peace and tranquility while there to the point we didn't want to leave. Absolutely breath taking...
Tamiaka, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved the quiet and slow pace of the property. A little bit of an inconvenience to not have wifi but it was nice at the same time not to be connected. Loved my stay here.
Sylvia, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

we absolutely loved our little cabin. it was the perfect size. Very clean !! we set on the poarch and listened to the water flow down the creek. very relaxing! It was just a few miles from town which made it perfect for out getaway. The owners went out of their way to make sure we were happy and enjoying our stay. can’t wait to come back !
Todd, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not a cabin just a small room right on side of road almost in road fire pit and grill was a joke
Frances, 2-night trip

Tommy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My husband and I spent our 29th wedding anniversary at panther cabins. We had the best time. The cabin was perfect for us and romantic. The communication with management was wonder. Before perps when we we’re coming and the follow up after. Infact so much to do in the area. We want to bring the whole family when we do a vacation. That’s how much we enjoyed it.
Lisa, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was great. The Cabin was in great conditions minus 1 issue with the shower head that leaked but no big deal. The phone number for the host that I used from their site was met with no response to my message, but it was figured out either way. parking was kind of difficult (a truck with trailer takes up most of the space and makes it difficult to get into your assigned spot). I would stay again though.
DON, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The cabin was very simple as expected,clean, very beautiful outdoor setting with a stream, fire pit and chairs. The kitchen needs more silverware. We only had one fork. Get for a couple for a quiet getaway. No internet
Lee Ann, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

It had no hot tub as said it was a jacuzzi bath tub no internet no phone service and it was on the lot with another house that neighbors were looking in at us in the kitchen window no water pressure felt very shady
Chris, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property is miss-advertised. There is no spa no resort. The cabin was dirty felt as if it hadn't been opened in weeks. The door was open and we did not get a key for the room so we could not stay there. Someone opened the key box, unlocked the door and did not leave us the key. The porch was also filthy.
tracy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Well i couldnt get in when we got there cause they had changed our cabin and we had no idea it was freezing outside no signal on my phone and they dont have wifi so i had to call 911 to get them to call the lady to come let us in and thats when she told me my cabin was switched. The inside to the eye was clean but they had roaches and i absolutely hate bugs, i didnt want to carry them home with me but i messaeged the lady and told her.
Shasta, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Charged $8 for firewood and no wood was supplied. When confronted I was told they do not supply wood, therefore I had to purchase elsewhere. Lacking communication between the owner and myself, and rude
Charles, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

After we paid for 3 nights in full, Panther Creek sold our cabin to another, then charged us a second time, and put us in a U-Haul that they call a tiny home. We arrived in the dark, trailer was dark. There were bugs, dirt, feces. A sheer curtain for a bathroom door, toilet not attached to floor, floor sticky, furniture filthy and greasy. Electrical outlets improperly installed, there is no code, apparently for human safety. Water was left in an appliance on counter from at least a month ago…we RAN out in AM and notified Panther Creek, explained, and proved to them that we paid in full. They tried to keep both sets of payments, as they have a no refunds policy. Ruined our trip. I have photos of the filth, how do I show others to help folks see this bait-and-switch and FECES on furniture and handrails. Horrifying. when traveling, we used to try to support Native run businesses, but lack of codes and laws will keep us from Cherokee, and all Native businesses in all future travels. A real shame, but hey, they can make their own rules. After months of badgering, we were able to get some resolution from PCC, but did they clean up, figuratively and literally? Don’t risk your travel $, please.
Peter, 2-night trip
