Responsive Hosts:
* Over 70 5-star reviews across all booking platforms
* As private hosts, we genuinely care about your experience. Unlike large management companies such as Evolve or Vacasa, we take pride in offering a personal touch, ensuring your stay feels more like a home away from home, with thoughtful details and responsive service. Message us about early check in or late check out a few days before your stay or before you leave! We will always try to accommodate if possible.

Security:
- Our property includes an outdoor video monitoring system in the driveway and backyard to enhance security; it does not monitor private deck areas. Any tampering with the camera system will result in immediate eviction and forfeiture of all dues.

Booking Policies:
- Rates are variable and subject to change.
- A minimum stay of three nights is required, extending to four nights over major Federal Holidays, with no checkouts on the holiday itself.

Property Care and Usage:
- Keep our gate closed at all times to maintain security and privacy.
- No parties or events are allowed to ensure a peaceful environment for all guests.
- Only water is allowed in the bedrooms to maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of our bedding.
- Avoid doing laundry in freezing temperatures to prevent flooding from frozen pipes. Any damage from negligence will be the guest's financial responsibility.
- We operate on a well and septic system; please flush only toilet paper and natural waste.
- While we treat the home monthly for pests, its wooded location means bugs and snakes may be present occasionally. Use the provided vacuum for any bothersome insects.

Environment and Access:
- Our road and driveway is gravel and well-maintained, but it's on a mountain side with a 500ft climb where weather can create challenging conditions with bumps and dips. We recommend vehicles with AWD/4WD; low clearance vehicles like sports cars may struggle and be damaged.
- Prepare for potential power outages caused by natural events. The local power company is usually prompt with restorations, but delays can happen.

Waste Management:
- Should your trash exceed the outdoor bin's capacity, you can either take it to the local Waste Facility located 10 minutes towards Franklin or opt for a $25 pickup service by our cleaning crew. Please arrange this in advance if needed.

Enjoying Your Stay:
- You're staying in a house, not a hotel—please treat the space with respect. We are not on-site 24/7 but will respond as quickly as possible to any issues.
- Embrace the remote, off-grid experience if temporary departures from power occur, enjoying the peace that comes with our secluded location.
House Rules

Accurate Guest Count is Essential:
Please ensure that the number of guests and pets in your reservation is accurate. We do not charge per person, but accurate numbers help us prepare the appropriate amount of towels and linens.

Child Safety:
Our home welcomes children and provides toys suitable for various ages. However, as a mountain home with multiple levels, steep terrain, and features like a hot tub and a wood-burning stove, it may not be fully suitable for very young children. Parents should be aware that the property includes second-story decks and lacks specific child safety features.

No Smoking or Vaping:
Smoking or vaping inside the house or on the deck is strictly prohibited. A designated smoking area with a picnic table is available near the carport; please use the provided green cigarette receptacle for disposing of cigarette butts. Failure to comply will result in the forfeiture of your security deposit and you will be financially responsible for all deep cleaning/restoration costs.

Pet Policy:
Up to two dogs are allowed with a non-refundable pet fee of $120. If you wish to bring more than two dogs, please contact us in advance to discuss the possibility and additional fees. Dogs must be house-trained, and we recommend grooming them before arrival to minimize shedding. Pets should not be left unattended unless crated, and due to steep terrain and wildlife, they should be kept on a leash when outside. No other animals may be brought to this property.

Outdoor Fire Pit:
The outdoor fire pit is available for responsible use. Please keep fires small and under control to prevent any risk of wildfire. Irresponsible use of the fire pit that leads to damage or danger will have serious consequences, including potential fines and legal actions.

By following these rules, you help ensure that everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience at Lost But Found. We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to hosting you!

Very clean! The pictures do not do the view justice. But definitely bring an AWD vehicle in the fall and winter. The driveway is slippery when covered with leaves and I'm sure the winter is just as bad when its icy. But we loved it and are already talking about doing it again next year!

Beautiful and peaceful
The house was exactly as listed. Everything was very clean. The kids enjoyed playing the games downstairs (and the adults). We all enjoyed the view and eating our meals outside. The “bar” snd seats outside added to the pleasure. The grocery store was about 20 minutes away and everything we did was within 2 hours, which really isn’t that far when you are in the mountains. The house made you feel like you were in your old little world. Very enjoyable!I would highly recommend this place!

The pictures do not do this cabin justice as the view is even more breathtaking than the pics. It is definitely in the middle of nowhere, but that's exactly what we were looking for to relax and we planned accordingly. The game room was great for our kids (us too). Very highly recommended!!

Our family of 6 stayed at Lost But Found for a glorious 8 days. We absolutely fell in love with the house and the surrounding area and are already planning our trip back for next year’s vacation. We loved how secluded the house was, sitting on the outside deck all you could hear was nature. The beds were so comfortable and we all slept like babies. The entire family loved the house.

This is a wonderful house in an even better location. The drive up is a bit rugged but worth every bump. Interior is very thoughtfully laid out and furnished but the deck scenery is the showstopper. We had a great time and look forward to returning.

Christmas on Top of the Mountain!
Our stay was absolutely amazing! My family of 7 thoroughly enjoyed the stay at the Lost But Found house. The owners were very responsive before our visit and especially during our visit when the power went out on Christmas Day. The power outage was not due to the property owner or the house. Just one of those things with a tree somewhere in the area. The owners were very responsive considering it was Christmas Day. Which we appreciated very much. Thank you for allowing us to use your house for our Holiday celebration. Highly recommend this house if you are looking for a remote, beautiful location to get away!

Great House for a staycation
We stayed here with the max of 8 people. The house was perfect size other then the basement bathroom being shared with the laundry room. I might have missed that in the posting. Kitchen was decently stocked with items, including open food items in the pantry which is kind of gross, but we just left the door closed. If you think you need more then one roll of paper towels, BRING THEM. Also, just to note the basement only has one air unit and it is in the “living room” part, so just know that the basement bedroom gets extremely stuffy if you shut the door. The game room was a huge hit with the 3 kids (ages 17-7) and the adults. The fire pit is very nice and the chairs are comfortable! We had a great time and everything we needed for 4 nights. They aren’t kidding about the driveway… It’s steep and rough but we all got a kick out of going up and down!! It’s it’s own adventure and the kids loved it! The views off the top deck are amazing, especially in the early mornings!!! The one downside is this house pretty far from most of the things we wanted to do, the road to get to Bryson City and Cherokee is long with extreme curves so it took a long time to get anywhere but if we ever wanted somewhere with amazing views and a staycation this is where we would stay!!

Family Getaway
This had to be the best place we have ever stayed. I cant even begin to figure out our favorite part of the stay because everythi g was incredible. I guess first would be the amazing views feom the porch, beyond beautiful. The cabin (kitchen) was stocked with everything you could possibly want and MORE. It was so beautiful and clean. We loved the game room and had many ping pong tournaments which our 12 year old loved the most. Communication the entire time was first rate!!! We will definitely be back. As a family we all felt this was our favorite stay of all our trips. We only left the cabin one time, it was just too much fun to leave. We HIGHLY recommend staying here, and the beds were super comfy too which is hard to find alot of times.

Home Away From Home
Our friends and fellowship trip was absolute amazing. Most credit goes to the wonderful hosts and their great property. The hospitality was top notch. The hosts provide a guide that clearly explains the process, their expectations and information on the local area that makes planning ahead so much easier. The house comes with everything you have at home and probably more. We forgot to bring our air fryer….they had one! The house is clean and well decorated. The entertainment provided is accommodating to all age groups. This trip was 3 couples. All of us plan to return with our children for our family trips. One of the best parts was the mattresses. I’m not certain of the brand. But we all are raving about how comfortable they are. I highly recommend this property.

Beautiful house and awesome views
We had 7 adults and a few dogs and we were very happy with house. Pictures are exactly how it looks. Home owner great at communicating with you. Driveway is steep so pay attention to their description but once you get up there it’s worth the drive. Lots to do in Bryson city and Franklin is only about 10 miles away, but it will take you about 25 minutes to get there. We rarely left the house because the owners have provided you with so much to do there to entertain yourselves. I do suggest, just like it says in listing, to bring enough food for a few days so you don’t have to leave. I highly recommend this beautiful house, the owners really care about their guests.
