The property was beautiful. The host was very sweet and responsive! Only a couple problems came up. She was very responsive and helpful on getting them resolved to the best of her abilities. The only small problem that was unfixable was there was no power cords for two of the TVs which made it difficult for me to put TV on for my kids and there's hardly no Wi-Fi and the additional cabin but it was a beautiful stay and I would recommend it but be mindful there are a lot of steps for those who have littles may want to bring a baby gate or elderly may need to use the pull out sofa.

We thank you so much for alerting us to the power cords being taken, which is quite the unusual situation for sure! We have ordered new cords and have ordered an extender for WiFi in the add on cabin as well. Thank you for enjoying the property with your small children and thank you for taking such great care of the cabins!

The cabin was amazing. The views from the cabin were insane, being able to see mountains all over and being immersed in the woods was perfect. Both of the cabins were clean and had everything we needed (Wi-Fi, kitchen tools, etc.). Kids had a blast exploring the woods surrounding the property. We will definitely be back to stay here in the future!

This property is so charming. If you're looking for the wood cabin experience this is the place. The views are stunning with the mountains out in the distance and a meadow on a hill with deer, wild turkeys and hundreds of butterflies. I would recommend this place to anyone.

The cabin was comfortable and easy to find. The room adjacent to the cabin had an extra charge that initially we did not know about. Some of our friends got sick, could not come, so we did not have to pay, but make sure you ask. The cabin is in a very private area, the kitchen is well equipped, but the outdoor grill could be better (we had to improvise to make it work). Communication with the owner was excellent, and the cabin was easy to find on the GPS. WiFi is good, and cell coverage is weak on AT&T.

The property is exactly as listed. The views are breathtaking. Sleeping arrangements are semi-private upstairs with a partial wall blocking one bed from the other two. The couches downstairs can be used for additional guests. The kitchen is large and well stocked. Our two families had a great time at the property!

Way more amazing than we imagined!

This place was well worth it. The views, the accommodating host was so friendly and great to work with. We would stay here again and again. Definitely more than worth the price. It had everything we needed. It is waaay up in the mountains but not hard to find. Super cozy both the day we got there playing outside in 70 degrees as well as the day we left with several inches of snow. Super clean and was just an awesome trip with my family.

Adequately named the Heavens!!

My fiancé and I eloped and had our wedding at the Heavens. We stayed for 5 days and didn’t want to leave. The property is absolutely breathtaking. I can’t wait to get our photos back! The cabins are beautiful and very well maintained. We cooked every meal and they had everything in the kitchen we needed. The cabins were clean and well stocked with plenty of towels and blankets. We built fires at night in the fire pit. My fiancé has always wanted to take me to Max Patch and it just so happened to be very close. Probably the most amazing view I’ve ever seen hiking. Highly recommend!!

A slice of Heaven

This location was perfect for the hiking trips we had planned. The property was well laid out for our needs and provided us to wind down to its amazing view after long days in trail. Accessing the property from the road was easy, and driving the "Rattler" to get to the house was an experience in its own right. The lock boxes were straight forward and the included carabiner on the key was great for securing the key to my person while hiking. The house's location was exactly what he wanted. It's remote enough for complete privacy, yet, a local store for essentials is minutes away. And if you're looking for a larger area for groceries/restaurants, Lake Junaluska isn't far. We had an amazing trip and hope to return to this property in the future as we continue our exploration of the AT and the surrounding area on the NC mountains. It is a slice of heaven on earth.

Perfect mountain retreat

Had the opportunity to stay at this property for two nights in March 2023 for an elopement. The views are absolutely stunning and the cabin itself is perfect and cozy. Do yourself a favor and book it now! The cabin is an awesome retreat, far enough from everything that you don’t feel bad for just staying in, but close enough to outdoor activities to do something physical. We brought all the food we needed with us and stopped for firewood at Ferguson’s on the way to the cabin, so we just stayed in and enjoyed the snow flurries. The kitchen offers everything you need to prepare an incredible meal. There is a Keurig for your coffee needs. This is a perfect spot for groups that are comfortable with each other, unless you book the second private cabin attached to the main structure. The bedrooms upstairs are loft style with incredibly comfortable beds, but the 2 bathrooms offer plenty of privacy.

Dream wedding venue

We were looking for a place to have our wedding with the BEST view and came across The Heavens. This place was unbelievable. The cabin itself is updated & beautiful. We rented the sky cabin to have a private room. We used the area directly around the cabin to host 65 people for a ceremony and dinner. The upper part of the big field we used for games and to take pictures. Everyone was stunned by the view and natural beauty. The parking is limited, so we used a shuttle to bring people up the mountain. Our guests stayed in bnb rentals in the area. Stephanie was quick to respond, and a very gracious host. She was accommodating to our larger group, and our guests were respectful to treat The Heavens as a home. We will definitely be visiting again for our anniversary!

I’m sorry you did not find the cabin to your liking. The washing machine broke a day before your arrival and we replaced it with a brand new washer and dryer the day after your departure as we could not get one there quickly enough during your few days there. There are no holes anywhere in the floor though. The upstairs is indeed an open floor plan with cathedral ceilings with a wall in between the two bedrooms. The pictures that were sent of possible dirt you stated was there were sent at the end of your rental before departure with no time stamp on them. Our cleaning team does an immaculate job and we stand behind their work.

Elopement

We stayed at this property and held our small elopement on the property. The views were absolutely stunning. It’s about 45 minutes from Asheville, and about 30-40 minutes from downtown Hot Springs. It’s also close to Max Patch hiking trail, about a 35 minute drive. The house was very clean and well kept. The internet could be a little slow at times, which is expected being out in the mountains. The hosts provided plenty of towels, toilet paper, and had plenty of plates/cookware. The hosts had a Keurig, so I would recommend bringing your own K-cups if you’re caffeine addicts like we are, because we only saw decaf k-cups there. Also make sure to bring your own shampoo/body wash, etc. I would definitely recommend staying here; we were extremely pleased with our stay.
