Very cozy cabin, clean, and great location. Close to the highway for easy access, but feels like you are in the wilderness. Host was very responsive, and we loved the chance to eat fresh eggs...both chicken and duck! Kids loved seeing the chickens and ducks around the property. We were just there for a short stay, but really enjoyed our time.

The chickens were a great and surprising welcoming committee! The kids loved meeting them and giving them treats. Overall nice accommodations and the farm fresh eggs were a plus! Our hosts were great communicators and quick to respond before and during our stay. For things to do nearby- Hiking trails were 10-20 minutes, lots of overlook opportunities too. If you have a chance also checkout the Appalachian Mountain Brewery down the road, even if you don’t like beer it’s a nice location with inside and outside seating, family friendly, and high quality food.

Fly fishing trip

The cabin was excellent, the property still had storm damage which is understandable and expected. My grandson and I enjoyed a wonderful day of fishing with the nearby DB Bar D Outfitters just 5 minutes from cabin. The weather was excellent, the inside of the cabin is beautifully finished and our guide Mike all helped make a trip a memorable one. Our hearts go out to the people in this area of NC that have been through so much since Hurricane Helene.

Cabin in the Woods

The cabin was very peaceful and perfect for our stay. It was located within 20 minutes of almost any type of restaurant you could want, but the kitchen allows you to choose to stay in and cook, as well. It had all the things we needed and met our expectations.

Nice stay!

We had a nice time staying here while we were in town for a wedding. It was close to everything we needed. Grocery store is right down the street. Some good hiking trails not too far away. We had a few minor issues at the house (water pressure, drainage); contacted the host and they fixed it right away! The host was very responsive!

Great cabin in the woods.

Had an amazing stay here, inside is beautiful, all new with great woodwork, clean and well taken care of. Although there was nothing negative, I would recommend raising the upper bunk bed in the second room, there is very little space between those beds, very claustrophobic for anyone over 10 years old. Otherwise this is a great gem, and we look forward to visiting again!!!

Great weekend

Took my daughter for a Daddy daughter weekend and we had a blast. We went horseback riding in Pisgah and checked out Looking Glass Falls and Sliding rock. Sierra Nevada is only 10 minutes down the road and is an amazing place. Overall the unit is clean and well kept and served us well for our stay. Some improvements could be the mattresses/bedding and the AC unit.

Cozy cabin with peaceful porch

I wanted a true cabin in a woodsy setting for a reunion of three long-time friends. The wood paneling and rocking chairs on the porch facing west suited us well. The chickens and ducks wandering through were a bonus, as were their fresh eggs in the fridge! We looked for hiking trails which had been mentioned but didn't find much and Mary confirmed that they are yet to be developed. The kitchen was adequate for our simple meals and the beds were comfortable. We were glad we had good weather and could go on outings as the place was too cozy for three to spend full days on the property.

Perfect spot for a quick getaway

Our family of four enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The property is located just a short drive from a grocery store and restaurants. Most local attractions are a short drive away. Our AWD vehicle was sufficient, as the driveway is not too steep. Kitchen was stocked with essentials and functioning appliances. Our kids enjoyed the chickens and watching deer from the porch. Just FYI, the top bunk’s mattress is flush with the railing, so keep in consideration if you have small kids. Overall, would recommend if you have a small family and are content with a smaller cabin!
