About this property

Located in one of the nations most desireable vacation spots.

Nestled in the woods of Brevard, North Carolina this charming cabin offers a spectacular view of the Great Smokey Mountains. Walk through the front door and embrace the beauty of this luxurious, open floor plan cabin with an enormous, stone fireplace that runs through the entire house. From the vaulted ceilings to the custom wood floors your mountain vacation keeps getting better. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and is equipped with everything to prepare a meal. There is a large dining area with plenty of seating and a nice view of the fireplace. The living room is cozy with mountain views from the windows and it is perfectly positioned to keep you warm by the fire. The upstairs is lovely but wait until you see the porch!! As we walk out onto the porch you will first notice the incredible views of the Great Smokey Mountains!! Here, you will find your peace. The porch has plenty of room as well as seating for entertaining. We've provided a stainless steel grill for your bbq needs. Also, you can connect a constellation with our state of the art telescope and keep your eyes on the trees with our set of binoculars, and you're bound to catch a glimpse of the native birds of North Carolina. The main floor also features a queen size bed with an attached bathroom. As we move to the downstairs you will notice the custom stairs that gives you a fancy feel as you drop in to the first king size bedroom. The king size room provides you with amply amount of space to store your belongings. Now, as we shift into the open floor plan of the queen size room you will notice the continuance of the fireplace. It will provide plenty of heat on those chilly winter nights! The shared bathroom has a drop-in tub and a custom tiled shower. The third bedroom downstairs is perfect for all the young at heart with twin bunk beds and chest full of games, puzzles and activities for kids.

Great location, close to downtown Brevard. Only around 30 minutes to downtown Hendersonville. Host was great. The chalet was cute, but could have been cleaner. It had everything you would need and the view was perfect!

The location and view from the house is ideal but the house has not been maintained well. Several closet doors and the pocket door from kitchen to master bath were broken or difficult to work. The downstairs bedrooms I slept in was musty smelling and I couldn’t open the window because there are no screens on the window which was ground level. The towels are worn and had a mildew smell. Downstairs layout is awkward with very little privacy, esp in the bathroom.

Feels like home

We stayed here with friends for our first joint family vacation and it could not have been more perfect! We felt right at home as soon as we arrived. Gary was so helpful and nice, and the views from the property are absolutely stunning. We saw a ton of wildlife around the property (deer, turkey, chipmunks, a huge woodpecker and an albino squirrel)! Would absolutely stay here again!

The location was great and the view was beautiful. The house really needs updating! The linens , towels, etc need to be replaced. The bathroom downstairs needs complete walls not half the way up. There needs to be new furniture as I had to put a pillow on the recliner because the cushions were so old it was gone! The window unit is right beside the tv so when you have the unit on the tv has to be very loud. And it’s the only unit for the whole house. This house has potential but needs a lot of updating and replacing.

Perfect view!

Our trip got off to a late start. We were 1.5 to 2 hours later than we had originally planned. But Gary was understanding and waiting on us to get there at 930 at night. He left us a bottle of wine for our stay. The home is gorgeous, clean and cozy. But that view of the sunset over the mountains was absolutely beautiful!!! I would definitely stay here again.
