Perfect location for a mountain stay
This lovely cabin was perfectly located—quiet and hidden away in the woods but close to the grocery store and convenient to DuPont State Forest, Pisgah National Forest, and all the fun things available in Hendersonville, Brevard, and Asheville.

Getting together with friends
Asheville is in between our homes which made it a good location to get together. The cabin was well equipped and the USB towers, in the bedroom, were a nice touch. If the weather had been better, we would have had a fire in the fire pit. Very nice cabin.

Wonderful winter stay
The shady shanty is everything it says in the listing and more. Well appointed, clean, oh-so-cozy nights by the fire… really close to downtown / main Hendersonville as well as a nearby pizza place that’s local and great, a lovely park, a local gym with weekly passes and very close to great hikes in DuPont Park and Pisgah mountains and breweries for refreshments. Greg and Jen were very quick to welcome us, reply to any inquiries, and just really lovely hosts who show how much they love their place.
