PROS: (1) Host was accessible when we needed extra kitchen towels and an additional hand towel in the bathroom. (2) Cabin docor was fun with the airplane memorabilia. (3) LR furniture was comfy. Especially the recliner. Husband enjoyed it. (4) Nice assortment of dishes/utensils/pots & pans. (5) Convenient to our destination at the Great Smoky Mountain Event Center. (6) Near super views of the mountains(7) Easy to check in and out off(8) Handy to get to both Bryson City and Cherokee(9) Nice refrigerator and stove(10) Bed was comfortable (11) Nice size shower(12) Handy parking close to cabinCONS: (1) AC too loud when trying to sleep. However, room too hot without AC. (2) Living room rug had not been vaccumed before we arrive. There were food crumbs & fuzz left on the rug. (3) Also, pile a dust/dirt/spider webs between recliner and wall. (4) Recliner still has tags attached. (lol) Also, there is an additional plastic tag fastener sticking out on the front of the chair as well. (5) There are 2 skillets. Large one is great. Small one is scratched up and should never be used. Since the guests wash and replace utensils, the host never knows when dishes need replacing. Please replace the small skillet. (6) Shower curtain allows water to get onto bathroom floor. (7) No towel racks at sink for hand towels. (8) Very sad collection of bath towels/hand towels/kitchen towels. Past their prime!

Very pleased with the accommodations and attention we received as soon as we arrived. Older fella cutting grass helped us get our bike trailer situated so we had easy access to it. We came up to golf and ride in the mountains. The weather cooperated perfectly and we had an amazing trip. Looking forward to the next one, and we will for sure be back to the cabins.

Loved the cabin! Great for a get away to enjoy all the area offers. The heater in the bathroom is a really nice touch for cold mornings. Timed it twice, and it’s 11 minutes door to door from the casino. Nothing negative to say.

This is the 4th time we have stayed at Ela Shores...each time in a different cabin. This was the first time we were able to see two elk right outside our cabin and what a treat it was! Cabins are in a great location...right between Cherokee and Bryson City. Clean, cute, had pretty much everything we needed for our stay.
