The Heart Center sits on 30 acres of beautiful forest land and it is surrounded by the Nantahala National Forest.  The place is an old school site that was literally left to be buried by the forest, until I came along and decided to fix it up, and create a holistic sanctuary for people wishing to get away from it all. A place where one can heal, contemplate, re-energize, and relax in a quiet and pristine environment. Feel secluded enough to experience your own inner stillness; and, yet, connected enough to enjoy many beautiful area attractions that are just minutes away such as: Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, Fontana Dam and the Appalachian Trail, 20 Mile Ranger Station, Cherohala Skyway, and Santeetlah Lake!The Heart Center is about love, unity, harmony, joy and re-connecting with ourselves, others, and Mother Nature. At the Heart Center, we take special interest in providing our guests with a uniquely peaceful, positive, comfortable, and relaxing experience! Whether you are laying on a hammock, walking the labyrinth, or just sitting on the deck taking in the sights and sounds, we want you to enjoy.

Weekend Trip to Luxurious Couples Getaway-Reboot!

We loved the private cabin that we were in and there's another nearby camp area but there was no one there so we had the space for ourselves. We would definitely recommend anyone to go and the owner was able to let us take our dog somewhat last minute so that was really nice. The owner answer our messages before and while we stayed in cabin so that was really nice. The cabin was clean and organized before we got there and we had had no issues finding the cabin.

This place is so cute and was perfect for us, our 3 year old, and our dog. Our son loved the tiny home, calling it, "my house". The house is thoughtfully designed making the most of the such a small space. We had everything we needed and more. We are used to primitive camping so it was nice to have more accommodations available like shower, stove, dishes, a Keurig & microwave. It's only about a 25 minute drive to Gatlinburg with a Walmart down the street as well to grab some groceries or extras you may need.

Joni’s place was very cute and fit the bill for what we were looking for a quiet weekend stay! About thirty to forty minutes from great areas like Dahlonega and Blairsville, we got to explore both town and forest and have a cozy place to crash. Be mindful you can see the other tiny homes if you’re looking for something extremely quiet.

This tiny home is a perfect getaway! Looks exactly like photos. Tucked away at quiet campground, which is sufficient in itself, but it’s also close to some overlooks on the foothills parkway and 30 min or so from Great Smokies main entrances, Gatlinburg and other attractions. Will was responsive. Definitely recommend booking! :)

Ryan was a good host, I recently spent a weekend cabin camping at Savor Carolina and it was a fantastic experience! If you love the outdoors but also appreciate a few creature comforts, this is the ideal setup. The cabin offered a cozy atmosphere with all the amenities — a comfortable bed, electricity, and a common kitchen and dining area with everything needed to cook our own food while still keeping us connected to nature. Forest view was incredibly peaceful. The privacy and quiet were exactly what we needed to unwind. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked.

Weekend Trip to Luxurious Couples Getaway-Reboot!

This tiny cabin was exactly what we needed for a peaceful getaway! My husband and I recently got remarried to set a new anniversary date, as our original one carried difficult memories. We wanted something simple and relaxing, and this space was perfect—cozy, welcoming, and well-stocked with everything from blankets and cooking essentials to a hair dryer and even shampoo and conditioner for the outdoor shower! Everything was clean and fresh upon arrival, and the bed was incredibly comfortable, offering both heavy and light pillows for those who like options. The porch felt comfortably private while still letting us enjoy the sounds and sights of nature. The string lights at night are such a beautiful touch! The owner, Sunny, was friendly and responsive when I had a question about the outdoor shower. A well-organized binder provided clear instructions for everything (from the cooktop and hot tub spa to the projector and everything else) along with local recommendations. We took a scenic drive to Amicalola Falls, passing several charming apple orchards. Stopping at B.J. Reece Orchards for their famous fried pies was a delicious highlight! We’d highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking to escape the busyness of everyday life—especially couples wanting to slow down, be intentional with their time together, and remind themselves why they choose each other every day.
