Thank you so much we were very impressed! Just what we wanted. Enjoyed our honeymoon week at the Sundance cabin!N & N Kuntz.

You guys really have a wonderful, and beautiful place nestled away in these beautifully magnificent mountains. John and I really enjoyed the entire place as well as our cabin and hot tub. We really had a wonderful stay!! Thank you and God bless. J&B Peavy

1st impression "where the heck am I? I'm lost in the wilderness never to return! With Lions and Tigers and Bears. Then I realized I was experiencing a little piece of heaven! I wish we had never left the cabin. Much love Patty & Mark

Just wanted to let you know that we have had the most Relaxing, Enjoyable weekend that we have experienced in years! I can't think of a better place to spend an anniversary. The Sundance cabin and setting are perfect! Thanks again for a great weekend that we will remember for years to come. S&T Parker

Thank you very much for all the great details in this cabin-the fire pit, the stereo, the pond-it's the perfect cozy getaway and we will be back soon! Greatfully C&J

Choosing "Dancing Sun Cabins" is one of the best decisions we have ever made. We were married on December 28th & spent one week in this beautiful corner of North Carolina. Tom, thank you for the cookies (amazing!) and everything included in the cabin. The amount of amenities in this place is unbelievable. We could not have asked for a better place to spend our honeymoon. The Hot Springs Spa was solid - Jessica received one heck of a massage there - , Biltmore Estate (only one hour away) was mind blowing & the people of Spring Creek were more than amazing. At first, the small size of the cabin was surprising - but by the second day we realized it was all that we needed - so intimate & cozy. The outdoor hot tub on the front porch is perfect night - time activity, especially with the sound of the mountain stream below! Driving over 1000 miles from Texas was worth every dollar, ounce & second in order to get here. This place is truly special. If you are a guest of Moondance - you are blessed to be here. We will both miss the peace and solitude of this place. (By the way, Tom is amazing - do not hesitate to ask him anything.) Tom, good luck with everything. You will definitely be bragged about in Texas. -Daniel & Jessica Owens Huntsville, Texas XA Ministries

Thank you for a wonderful time in a Winter Wonderland. It was so relaxing and beautiful. The cabin is perfect and we hope to come back sometime. Thanks, Claire and Tim.

This is our second visit. The first time we stayed at Sundance and this time at Moondance. We enjoyed both times very much and plan to come back for a longer stay next time. It is so beautiful and peaceful here. The cabins are adorable and romantic. Joan and Bobby.

Coming here was a great getaway for us. The view was great. We went for a short hike to the National Forest, which was fantastic!! We managed to see a few deer. The Sundance cabin included everything we could possibly need & the hot tub was awesome! I thank you for the recommendations, as far as things to do. The people at Sandy Bottom Trail Rides were great! I hope to come visit again during the Summer vacation. Thank you for a wonderful weekend! Stephanie & Ray.

WOW, Tom and Patty, you guys have really established a special place here. After a couple of days here, this cabin, these mountains, and these windy roads begin to feel like home. This place is so cozy and comfortable that it is hard to pick up and return home. Everything about this place is perfect. Y'all have really established a place to be proud of in this little mountain community. The views are breathtaking in every direction. The hikes are unforgettable, the friendly welcoming nature of Tom and Patty & everyone else around Spring Creek is inspiring. It's always nice to drive through town & everyone you pass smile and wave at you. I am grateful that my wife found Dancing Sun Cabins. We looked at quite a few different cabin rentals and after staying at the Moondance cabin, I can safely say I would not have wanted to spend my birthday any other way. From the beauty of the land to the simplicity of your mountain lifestyle, Tom & Patty you are truly an inspiration to me and my wife. Thank You for everything. John and Candis, Durham NC by way of Lubbock, TX. P.S. See you in the Spring!!!

Oh what a holiday we have had. Baked cookies and poinsettia. Hot wonderful tub, then eat again, hike, eat, hot tub, movie. Beautiful scenery and people. We thank you much for sharing this cabin with us again. We will be back in Jan. We love it here!!

The cabin is great! We had the most wonderful time! Everything here is so beautiful. We even saw a shooting star while in the hot tub! We are already planning a trip in the Spring. Thanks for everything! Letina & Matthew, Russell County, Virginia

A perfect end to a special week. We enjoyed the hot tub day and night with the snow melting all around us. Thanks for helping us arrange the massages - Mona & Marie were wonderful to come to us. Also, thanks too for the cookies. We will be back & will share your special place with friends. Tracy and Keith. Hendersonville, NC

What a cute cabin + SO clean too! It was a pleasure to arrive at a place that had absolutely everything we needed. The hot tub was a big treat + the "highlight" for us. Also close proximity to the French Broad River + Cherokee Forest allowed a great day trip. The snow on the ground + frozen waterfalls really added to the ambiance of our trip to Hot Springs + Moondance cabin. Enjoyed the rainbow from the crystal in the window with my morning coffee on Sat. morning. Perfect Stay Lillian & James Tryon, NC.

Tranquil and Beautiful! A perfect way to spend our 36th anniversary. Thank you for all that you do to make this a special get-a-way. Mike & Barbara. Franklin, NC

Hot Springs, North Carolina, a resort destination for almost 200 years, has long been renowned for its healing mineral springs and scenic Smoky Mountain views. Native Americans discovered the hot water bubbling up along the banks of the French Broad River and enjoyed the soothing effect from bathing in it. The town of Hot Springs received its name from this phenomenon.

Hot Springs, NC Is located about 35 miles north of Asheville. It is in a valley in the Blue Ridge Mountains at the intersection of the Appalachian Trail and the French Broad River, and is surrounded by the Pisgah National Forest just a few miles east of the Tennessee state line. Hot Springs is the only town in North Carolina that the Appalachian Trail traverses. The sidewalk through the middle of town is actually the Appalachian Trail.

Hot Springs, North Carolina is a small town of about 700 people and has a wide range of places to dine from a nice diner type meal at the Smoky Mountain Diner, to a gourmet meal at Martha's, located at the Mountain Magnolia Inn.

Hot Springs hosts several music festivals and art shows and a large motorcycle rally during the year.

Hot Springs is a great vacation destination. The atmosphere is laid back, and is a friendly and peaceful respite from most busy destinations like Gatlinburg. Here you will find friendly folks to strike a conversation with. There is great trout fishing in the rivers and creeks around the town. There are many outdoor activities as well. Some couples escape to this small town for a romantic getaway, an anniversary celebration or wedding. You can be lulled asleep by the sounds of nature and water flowing down the mountain, especially at your vacation retreat at Dancing Sun Cabins.
