Comfortable Cabin

This is, hands down, one of our favorite places we’ve stayed in The Blue Ridge Mountains! The cabin is clean and well stocked with kitchen items and towels/linens. It is the perfect place whether you just hang out and relax or use it as a base for other adventures! We will definitely book this property again!

Quiet, clean, and beautiful

We could only stay one night as we passed through. But the cabin (Fawn) was fantastic.They really took pride in building the cabin and it is very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet and the small herd of deer came out mid-morning. Highly recommended.
