My friend and I enjoyed a quiet getaway to this lovely cabin. Although the weather didn’t comply, we enjoyed time playing games and a trip to Roaring River Winery for lunch. The house is beautiful and well maintained. We would love to return again.

Beautiful property

Gorgeous property! We had two young children and it was pretty easy to childproof. We did buy a childproof doorknob cover for the stairs leading to the basement because the lock didn’t work. We also recommend that the owner write a note about the stove. The “Cooktop On” light may stay on even if it is off. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Christmas Family Retreat

We wanted a Quiet Family Retreat for the Holidays this year and the cabin delivered. Kudos to Brian for taking care of a minor situation with the drier right away. The cabin is remote but it has all the amenities that you will need. The only observation for the owner is that the master room felt a little “stuffy” . We had to open the window and door for a little bit… But overall it is a great cabin for a family . Well maintained. And definitely, my only advice will be to get your groceries before you arrive. :)

FaithFest Family Vacation

The pictures of this home do it no justice! Better than we expected! Views were stunning! Well stocked kitchen! Great layout! Well kept property! We only had 2 cars in the driveway, but plenty of room for more - if necessary! We will definitely return next year for our yearly outing to Wilksboro. The only “down side” was the lack of screens on the doors. The weather was perfect to keep the AC/heat off and let the fresh air in, but due to the bugs and lack of screens, we had to keep things closed up. The upstairs master porch door had a screen which would work for the other entry doors. Just a suggestion, not a deal breaker. But would cut down on the electric/gas bill. Gorgeous place! Would definitely recommend this secluded, off path, gorgeous cabin! 5 stars from us! Thank you!!

Unjustified Extra Fees and Dirty Cabin: Avoid this VRBO Host

I recently stayed at this cabin and overall, our stay was pleasant despite some issues. The cabin was located in a beautiful area, with great views and easy access to outdoor activities. The beds were comfortable and the living and entertainment areas were spacious. However, upon arrival, we found that the cabin was not as clean as we expected (even though there is already a cleaning added to your bill). All utensils were quite dirty and had food remnants on them, which we had to wash before using (this predisposed us to thoroughly wash any other kitchenware before use). The cabin was infested with stink bugs and ladybugs, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. We had to spend a good hour each day cleaning and throwing out bugs before going to bed to ensure we and our two small children had an undisturbed night's sleep. Additionally, the master bathroom was dirty and we had to purchase clorox and cleaning supplies to clean it. The water heater also did not work one of the days and we had to shower with cold water, which was not comfortable since our stay was during winter. To top it all of and despite the heavy cleaning we underwent from bathrooms to kitchenware and utensils (even through we were supposed to have received a clean cabin as per the cleaning fees included) I was extremely disappointed to learn that the host charged us an additional cleaning fee claiming that they incurred an additional 2 hours of cleaning because we left “strawberry tops” on the floor and some furniture (slightly) out of place. We left the property in a much better condition that when we arrived. Either the host or the cleaning crew is lying and over exaggerating simple matter that do not warrant an extra fee. I would recommend other renters to be cautious of this host as they may add extra charges without proper justification. Despite these issues, our stay was pleasant and we enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.

We’ve stayed at this property multiple times and each time is amazing. It’s a great getaway with amazing views. From the time you get there you don’t want to leave. We enjoyed the porch as well as playing games in the lower level.

Great cabin

One of the best cabins we’ve ever stayed in - great views, the host provided everything we could have needed (including firewood), fun game room, and really comfortable beds. The only recommendation is to include the two exterior cameras on the cabin description - they seem to cover quite a bit of the outside area.

Serenity Now!

This stunningly beautiful cabin is well-appointed and immaculately clean. This was our fourth visit in as many years, and yet we continue to be amazed by the view of the mountains, the amenities, the comfiness, and, yes, the serenity. The sound of leaves rustling in the gentle breeze is about the loudest thing we heard all week, outside of the occasional passing car. It was exactly what we needed, and it's why we keep going back year after year. Thank you, Brian, for maintaining such a wonderfully welcoming retreat. (For those not tracking, the title of this review is a Seinfeld reference.)

Why they chose this property

I built Stone Mountain Serenity in 2008 and picked this location because of the amazing views, complete privacy, abundant wildlife and great hiking.

What makes this property unique

Enjoying the breathtaking views while in front of a bonfire is one of my favorite cabin activities. Hiking Stone Mnt State Park and Doughton Park are other must do's while visiting the area. My boys love the rock slide at Widow Falls in Stone Mnt Park, which always ends with ice cream at the country store. There is nothing better than enjoying a cold NC craft beer on the deck, while watching an amazing sunset over the mountains...the uplighting can be mesmerizing at times. Touring all of the local wineries with friends and ending with dinner at the Harvest Grill at Shelton makes for a great day.
