Tranquility Knoll really is tranquil! Me and my family had a great birthday getaway trip for Biltmore and the cabin was perfect!

Our family of four stopped for two nights on the way to South Carolina. We loved the cabin and scenic surrounds. Incredible sunrises. Fun watching loads of turkey courting and carrying on. Easy drive to Asheville and a horseback ride. Nice place!

The Little Bear’s House

The house was so cute, something out of a fairytale. The only problem being we are big bears and the main bedroom was a double bed on the main floor. Upstairs queen bed was very comfy but you needed to go down the stairs to the bath in the middle of the night. The cabin was so cute and had every convenience.

We found exactly what we were looking for: An oasis of serenity to unwind, a getaway from the summer heat of TX reminding us very much of sceneries in the Blackforrest in Germany.Adding to our memories was a nice chat with Mrs Lutz, the owner who showed us her miniature horses.
