Mountain delight

This was a perfect location in the mountains. The cabin was extremely comfortable. Very quiet and secluded. The location was perfect for mountain, hiking exploring, biking, and everything that Dupont Forest has to offer Brevard and Hendersonville were short drive away, where there were wonderful, breweries and restaurants and shops to explore.

Incredible place to stay in the Dupont/Pisgah area.

We loved everything about this place. It’s secluded enough to be nice and quiet but still very convenient to all the things you might need while on a trip. It was about a 3 minute drive to one of the main trailheads at Dupont, you can’t beat that. The home itself was super clean and very well equipped. The host was extremely responsive and very nice to deal with. I highly recommend this place.

Ideal Dupont base

Ideal location for a Dupont State Forest adventure, particularly for biking. Easy ride to Fawn Lake access area, not bad ride to Corn Mill Shoals. Well-stocked kitchen, beautiful deck, obviously well-loved house. Worked great for our family (2 adults, 2 college students and 1 middle schooler). Dick is an exceptionally friendly and helpful host.

Great spot for the whole family

The home is comfortable and has all sorts of amenities thoughout the cabin. We cooked almost every morning & evening. The kitchen is fully equipped + had ample supply of detergents. Favorites for our group included hanging out on the deck watching the colorful little birds & eating on the screened in porch. The location was convenient for hiking and chasing waterfalls in DuPont State Park. We’d go back !

Great cabin

The location in the Dupont Forest was private yet accessible to Brevard and the surrounding hiking trails. The cabin was well stocked and comfortable. I particularly enjoyed feeding the birds, goldfinches, chickadees and more. The Childs were hospitable hosts, only call away. Thanks for a relaxing week.

May the forest be with You!

We had a great time together just hanging out at the cabin. We grilled steaks and burgers and we enjoyed the large porches. Great location for going places like Table Rock, Caesars Head , Pretty Place, Sassafras Mountain, Pisgah National Forest, and DuPont. Believe it or not in our shirt time there we got to them all! Also everyone should go to Flat Rock Wood Room to eat at least one night. Beware you might wish it was two!

Short getaway

The house was perfect. It had everything we needed and then some! I love the rustic charm in the woods and yet my Verizon phone worked the entire time. I was able to keep up with work and getaway at the same time! The location is ideal for getting to Dupont State Park which was a beautiful experience. There were 3 of us (me and my two teenagers) and we had family come over to celebrate my daughter's birthday, so 6 in total for a dinner and games and it was very comfortable. I am very thankful that these owners are sharing their lovely Mountain Hi home!

Pretty Place Wedding

This property was an ideal location for my bridesmaids and I to get ready for my sunrise wedding at the Pretty Place Chapel! Staying in this cabin felt like stepping back in time, in a good way! The cherry on top is that the Pfaltzgraff dishes in this cabin were the exact dishes that my grandmother had! I truly believe that it was her way of telling me that she was there with me on my wedding day!! I cried when I saw them! It has everything you need for a comfortable stay! My husband and I also spent our wedding night here and he adored this mountain cabin! The host was very easy to communicate with and he was so helpful with suggestions regarding the area! Great little mountain hide away!

Cedar cabin with a great deck with bird feeders

We had a lovely week staying at the cabin. It is spotlessly clean, and the kitchen is well equipped and generously stocked. In the living room, there is a wall of windows looking out at the forest and five bird feeders, each with a different kind of food and attracting different birds. It was relaxing sitting and watching the birds. The owner is responsive and helpful. The location is great for mountain biking and hiking. The house was built in the 1970s, and some of the period details are charming. (But don't expect sleek and new.) I believe this may be the first review on VRBO, but the house has five stars on many reviews on TripAdvisor.

Beautiful cabin in Cedar Mountain

This cabin is so cute and very accessible to hiking, local restaurants, and Brevard. Cedar Mountain is such a nice little community. Everything you need is a few minutes down the road and then Brevard is only a 15 minute drive. The Cafe down the street is delicious, the Cantina has music and a wide selection of local brews. If you’re a birder, this is the place to be. Dick provides an abundance of seed, hummingbird food, suets and the birds COME. It was so nice to sit out and watch the birds with our morning coffee. DuPont is only 5-10 minutes from the cabin, depending on what trails you’re doing. Pisgah is 15-20 minutes away, but honestly DuPont is super cool and has a ton of different falls hikes, mountain biking trails, a great horse trail ride (Rusty Spur!). Dick is a great host. Very responsive, gives excellent recommendations before you even get there, provides trail and field guides for all of the local areas. I cannot say enough good things. We will be coming back to this cabin as soon as we can. Thank you, Dick!!

Girls' week

Four sixty friends and I stayed at Lindal Cedar home for some hiking and touring the area. The owner, Dick, was very helpful in suggesting hikes and amenities in the area. The home was clean and tidy, with convenient screened in porch and outdoor deck overlooking the woods. It was in a lovely, quiet location. We were just minutes from Dupont Recreation Area and Caesar's Head State Park. We spent a day exporing Pisgah Forest and Brevard area, a half hour drive. This was a perfect location for outdoor adventure!
