Great cabin

Close to Asheville, Catawba Falls, and Black Mountain. Cabin was perfect for us, everyone had their own bedroom/bathroom and privacy. The little yard was perfect for our little dog. Hot tub was clean and easy to use. Took post-hike dips and enjoyed the sunsets and fireflies. WiFi worked great. Well kept neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Felt safe yet secluded. Great stay!

The property was in a perfect location for us. Secluded and quiet, exactly what we needed. The hot tub only added to our relaxation. The house was clean and would be perfect for two couples.

Isolated and beautiful

This property is ideal for the ultimate 'social distancing' - it's at the end of a winding mountain road, and offers a gorgeous view of surrounding mountains from the deck. Furniture and beds are all comfy and spacious - big flat screens in three rooms for binge watching. Kitchen is relatively small for such a big house, but well-equipped. Overall a terrific getaway.

Beautiful Mountain Escape

This was a beautiful property with gorgeous mountain views. The roads were paved and made for easy access to this somewhat remote cabin away from it all, which is exactly what we were looking for in a getaway. We loved the outdoor areas and spent a good deal of time on the porch in the rocking chairs, the hot tub, by the fire pit, etc. where we enjoyed the beautiful views. We got to see more wildlife than expected, a pleasant surprise. The management company was very responsive to any issues.

Relaxing Getaway

This house is perfect for a relaxing & peaceful stay in the mountains. The house is just like the photographs shared online; we loved the fireplace/heaters as well as the outdoor fire pit & the hot tub. It seems very well cared for & up to date! The only thing I would add that we would have liked to know before our stay are the winding roads that lead to the property. Although we did except this in the mountains, the road to the cabin is very steep & has several sharp turns which can be scary when the weather turns foggy- which did happen. We also had to end our stay early because of a winter weather advisory & not being equipped with a car that could handle the roads if they were icy. We did not see any mention of what to do in that scenario so we left early! Altogether it’s a beautiful property & we loved spending time here!

The most perfect cabin!

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was my husband and 1 year old. Beautiful views and the fire pit and hot tub were so relaxing at night. Loved rocking on the back porch in the mornings. Fireplace was super easy to use as well by a switch on the wall, no work to have to actually make a fire yourself. Of note (not worth a bad review) the water pressure is low and water temp didn’t get too hot, which is understandable since it’s from a well. The refrigerator water tastes weird so we drank out of the sink. And the cabin is a solid 25-28 minutes from town on very curvy and steep roads/hills. But the drive was still beautiful and enjoyable. I get carsick so I had to drive every time. Would 100% recommend and stay again!
