Great location to the many falls in the area! Comfortable beds and plenty of linens. Host was very communicative, and nice to have two hangout spaces and large dining table for meals and board games.

The cabin was in a great location especially with having smaller children. It was also very clean and easily accessible. The host was also very patient and welcoming with the property. I would rent this estate again in the future.

Camp excursion

Stayed here as a respite from doing sliding rock ahead of a camp drop off. Very nice place and host was very accessible.

Great Launching Point for DuPont State Forest

This is an older home right off the highway just outside of Cedar Mountain. These are basic lodgings for sure but it’s clean and communication and check-in are both ideal. I would certainly stay here again if I were in the area.

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. For clarification for future guest, the house sits well off the road behind other homes that are closer to the road. Once your back to house, you can not see the road and are surrounded on 3 sides by woods.

Great stay prepping for a wedding

We had a service at the Pretty Place chapel and this was the perfect location for us to relax and prepare for the wedding. House was great and we had a wonderful family dinner around a great kitchen table.

Cute home

We enjoyed our 1 night stay. It’s an older home that has been for the most part renovated. Everything was charming, but the kitchen needs some work done. It was enough for us for one night, but would have been inconvenient if we had stayed longer.

Close to Pretty Place

House was a little hard to find. Look for address on mailbox, don't mistake it for the neighbors house. It was clean and well appointed. Easy check-in. It seemd to be the closest place to Pretty Place, which is where we were going for a sunrise wedding, its about 15 minutes away. The whole area is well away from amenities, so bring your food as I didn't see many options for eating out. Overall it was a great choice for what we needed.

Great weekend get away

Apple picking is an annual event for my family and we wanted a place to relax and enjoy the remote mountains. This place did the trick - it was half way for my college kids as well as the ones still at home. Lovely house with a great fire pit! We had a nice fire roasted hot dogs and made smores. Only thing I would change is to have logs for the fire. We had to find someplace selling wood as the small pieces around were damp. Otherwise, awesome place!

Cozy

It is a cute remodeled home! I have no complaints about the property itself nor the process, however the neighbors property is kinda rundown with junk in the yard. No one ever bothered us, but it an eye sore when the two properties kinda run together. This did not affect our rating because it is a great little get away.

Beautiful location

The drive up the mountain to this property was beautiful, with many scenic view accesses on the way. The home is tucked away near the woods and the surroundings were quiet. The home had everything if needed at first, such as toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, etc. I find that some listings say they offer these but they don't. The home was clean and even had some toys for our four-year-old to enjoy while there! We would definitely stay again if in the area.

Ok for short stay

There were some updates that had been made but the house is very old. As soon as we walked in there is a very noticeable musty smell and every room we went in had cobwebs implying the cleaners did not do a thorough job. Overall it served its purpose which was just a place to sleep for a couple days as we were not there long or at all during the daytime. I would not recommend renting for a long stay but is adequate for a night or two.

I'm sorry to hear that you found the house less than satisfactory. The house was built in the mid 50's and most features have been updated but the original kitchen cabinets remain (giving the mountain home charm) beyond that I'm not sure what the guest was surprised by. Please take a look at the picture for an accurate portrayal of what to expect. I am surprised by the reference to a musty smell as I stayed in the house immediately after this guest for multiple days and detected no smell. I wonder if maybe the changing season and fall leave smell of the wooded area simply was not familiar to this guest. This guest did stay during the start of fall and the house is located in the woods. Please note that while we've directed the pest control company to come back out, this is a season where spiders are looking for a winter home and are more difficult to control but we will work to remedy any problem. Please note all of my other reviews on this site and the other major booking site to see a more accurate portrayal of what to expect with this wonderful home.

It's a really charming property with a lot of space. The beds were very comfortable so we all slept well. The location is as advertised, very close to DuPont State Park, and not too far from Brevard. One thing to note, the keypad is on the side of the house, inside the screened in porch. It was hard to find in the dark.
