Everything was spectacular! True home feel, has everything you need from kitchen basics for meals to hygiene products for the lavatories.

Beautiful place! Clean, quiet and cozy. Would have loved to spend a few more days there to enjoy it. Kitchen was well equipped (probably just needs a toaster) and the hosts are very responsive. Would definitely stay again!

Great

This cabin is VERY nice. Nicer than pictures. It’s super comfortable, nicely furnished, quiet and pretty peaceful (couple of times there was someone with a dirt bike down the road making some noise but not a huge deal). The owners have the kitchen super well stocked, the firepit is great with lots of wood and plenty of places to sit and enjoy the mountain air. Water pressure and showers are excellent and beds are comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Great attention to detail and they had all the basics covered for us. Communication was excellent with the owners and they checked on us throughout our stay! Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Will and Shamon Gharst

Host profile image
We're a family of 4 with two small children. We love to get outside and explore all our state of NC has to offer. We love the NC coast, but we especially love Western North Carolina and enjoying all of the Hiking, restaurants, and creativity it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Almost every weekend in the Fall and Spring, our family takes a hike through the woods.
It's not always a long hike with having young kids, but it gives us a moment to reset, and lets our kids explore. From this, we decided to find a house in the mountains to give us more time to enjoy the views and have a place to bring the extended family.

The views of the mountains while driving up, the proximity to hiking and the Blue Ridge Parkway, as well as the quiet that surrounds the house, made us fall in love instantly.

What makes this property unique

You will be amazed just how quiet it can be sitting in the back of the house. Hearing a mountain stream in the background, it's a great place to reset from the normal day to day.
