Wonderful place to stay.

Wonderful place and a wonderful host. I highly recommend! Very serene and peaceful, with only the sound of the creek flowing over the rocks. Way off the beaten path, a real mountain retreat.

This property is a hidden gem! It was so peaceful to be in the woods with the creek running below. The balcony & deck were wonderful to enjoy our surroundings.

We were in desperate need of quiet time and nature without the tent. The Owl’s Perch was an amazing place to unwind and to rediscover and appreciate God’s amazing creation. The owners have taken great care to enhance its natural beauty with a little good humor thrown in.

A quiet, peaceful stay in the beautiful Nantahala Mountains. If you want quiet and remoteness this is the place to be surrounded by forests with a mountain stream below the deck. The hosts are gracious and accommodating. My wife and I had a wonderful stay and look forward to our next trip.

Beautiful property and friendly host. We stayed 2 nights, met the host at check in and never saw her again. Although the house is attached to cabin, you cant see it from the room. Gave us much needed privacy and seclusion

If you are looking for a safe, clean, quiet spot to just relax and disconnect from the world- this is it! It is small but comfy and has everything you need except for internet-so unwind, walk, fish, just enjoy the sounds and sights of nature. The owners are so very kind and attentive. I will be back!

Owl's Perch is a perfect getaway for singles or couples seeking solitude from civilization. It's located in a remote (but populated) area. The place is small, but has every necessary creature comfort. We especially enjoyed the cleanliness of our little home. We spent much of our time on the deck enjoying the stream. Many natural areas are easy drives away. Your hosts are on site, attentive but never intrusive. Ours was a memorable stay. Dave & Laura

Very fun! The Owls Perch space is efficient and compact but also lovely. Very stylish with lots of owls! The creekside location is amazing—loved sleeping to creek noises. The drive there is quite an adventure—the road keeps getting smaller and rougher, but still drivable. You don’t need 4 wheel drive, but the 5” clearance is definitely advised. The real perk, though, is Alice and Doug’s knowledge of the local attractions. So many good ideas of things to do in the area. I had originally planned to just hang out in the cabin for a day (which would have been relaxing and fun), but I was totally tempted by a suggested loop drive through local attractions. I am definitely planning a return visit. So much to do in the area. And this is my ideal for a secluded yet (more than) comfortable getaway.

8/10 Very good

We loved cooking all meals on the grill, the trout stream that runs through the property and the beauty of the place! Be prepared for biting bugs if they are attracted to you! I did come home with my arms and legs covered in them. I used bug repellent but after taking a shower and going back out on the porch… they got me good. Overall this is a gem!

Out of the way and off the grid property. The road in and out is single lane, be prepared to back out if need be. Lots of twists and turns, if you’re one to get car sick be prepared. But once there it’s a quaint, quiet studio like place with nice little deck to sit on and enjoy the tranquility of the area. No cell, no web service. Just you and your partner, or as it was me and my girl.

While on a motorcycle road trip, I stayed for one night at the Owl’s Perch on September 28th. It is a charming private wood cabin adjacent to the house of the hosts, Doug and Alice. It is quite a unique and peaceful accommodation in Robbinsville, NC, 30 min from the city accessible through a beautiful winding road while being very close to scenic roads and scenery like the Dragon’s tail road. The cabin has a private balcony overlooking a beautiful stream. Upon my arrival, I was greeted by Alice who was very kind and helpful with recommendations to nearby points of interest, and funny too I might add. I wish I could have stayed for more than one night to enjoy the immediate surroundings more, maybe even fishing. If you are looking for something different surrounded by beautiful natural scenery to disconnect from your usual routine, this is it. :)
