Great place for a guys trip

This place was a great place to go for a guys trip. We were able to fish, relax, and drove into Asheville to catch a baseball game. Everything was as advertised and we had no issues. Would definitely stay here again.

Great little get away

The property was very clean. The views were amazing. Sadly I did not catch any trout, but that was because as soon as my bait hit the water I caught a bass or bream.

Property description not accurate

The pictures of the property online were outdated. Pond not private, other houses around the water. Property also sits on main highway with a lot of road noise. Description online of property also includes “cook what you catch”; upon arrival rules left for review in home stated “catch and release only”. Pond was also overfished and not fully stocked as described.

Beautiful property

We took our family for the weekend for my daughter's birthday and this property was beautiful! The pictures doesn't do it justice. When we pulled up there was a deer eating in the front yard. We spent most of our time on the huge back deck and paddle boat. The inside was so clean and nice. Plenty of blankets and pillows. My husband loved the grills. Thank you for the use of your beautiful house!

Good time had by all

Fishing was fun. My 9 year old granddaughter and I competed to see who would catch the most. When all was over, we tied at 41 fish each. No big ones, but enough to keep us busy. We only used the kitchen for making breakfast a couple of times, but it was equipped well enough for preparing other meals. I personally wish we had taken advantage of the grill on the back porch, but the family wanted to eat out. It was also nice to have the family pet along. The cottage is located in an easily accessible location, right off hwy 280. Fun things to do can be found near by, Hendersonville, slidingrock, Sky Top Apple Orchard, Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, etc. There were nine of us and we all had a good time.. a Good Time Had by All.

Great quiet location with beautiful view

Very comfortable and clean. The outside needs a little TLC but overall very nice. Had trouble finding the property as there was no number on the house or name of the actual road that it's on, after driving around for about 45 minutes called Ashley and she gave us step by step directions. Thanks Ashely!

Fall Stay at the Cottage

We had a very enjoyable fall vacation at the cottage. The highlight feature was a large deck overlooking a picturesque lake scene. The cottage was clean and quite comfortable with excellent WIFI and TV provided. There were a few items that could do with some refurbishing, for example blinds and kitchen appliances. Seniors should be aware that there are a significant number of stairs since the master bedroom is on the first level and the living area is on the second.

No wifi

Ashley attempted to be accommodating with a couple of issues that arose. We never did have wifi. That's okay because we were really there to fish. There weren't any fish either. Way overpriced for what we got. The pond and lake are cute.
