We had a really lovely time at this property. The communication and detail were excellent and they provided so many options while at the house, in the community and nearby towns! It ended up being a rainy weekend but the house setup was honestly perfect for that. The views were amazing and we were still able to sit out and do s'mores on the screened porch. When the rain cleared my husband and son were able to go down by the creek and campsite and said it was a really nice trail walk with the dogs. We would absolutely stay again!

Excellent accommodations with gorgeous views! Great layout, clean and comfortable furnishings and very well stocked (kitchen and games/toys)! Community has so much to offer - frisbee golf, hiking trails (some are pretty intense!) and community center. Hosts were very kind and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend and already trying to plan our return.

Great host, location, and cabin. There's plenty of entertainment options, we loved the wood and gas fire choices, and the HVAC setup made sure everyone was comfortable in their rooms.The only improvement I can think of is some portable clothes hangers for the winter season with a large group. I'd strongly recommend it to anyone for a mountain getaway

A truly blissful mountain cabin

We stayed there for 2 nights as a spontaneous trip and we regretted how little time we had in there! The cabin is located in such a beautiful and quiet area, nestled in the woods with a mountain view. The house is well equipped with family/dog friendly amenities and games. The owner is super communicative and helpful. We enjoyed our short stay very much and would love to come back again!

Cozy Cabin

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Lucky Dog Cabin to celebrate Christmas. Sheila was a great host, who responded quickly, and gave great recommendations for our family with littles. The downstairs room was a fun area for the kids. She had everything we needed there. We will definitely stay again

This cabin is amazing! It has enough space for 12 plus people to sleep. Has almost anything you may need that you could have forgotten. We had an infant, 3 teenagers and my husband and I. There are toys, pack n play, and other items that were very kid friendly! There was plenty for them to do at the cabin where we didn’t feel we had to go go go the whole time. Had great communication from beginning to end. Would definitely recommend and we can’t wait to go back!

We had a wonderful stay with 8 people including teens. We all had a very nice time. The views from the deck are so beautiful! The house was very clean. The kids enjoyed tha game room in the house and clubhouse and used the paddle boats. The drive really is steep and I would recommend following Sheila’s directions. We cooked every meal there and the kitchen was very well set up with all the pots, pans, etc. we needed. We would definitely come again!

Breathtaking views and wonderful host!

Our family of 4 + our dog stayed at Sheila's cabin and had a great time. The view from the deck is phenomenal, the beds were very comfortable and the kids loved all the toys and games available at the cabin. The cabin has a cozy mountain cabin vibe, and everything was sparkling clean with a well-stocked kitchen. Sheila was incredibly responsive and reached out proactively with detailed directions and suggestions before check-in. The location is a bit remote, so it isn't the most convenient in terms of making quick trips to restaurants and stores, but our family was happy to cook and eat in most nights.

Great Stay!

My family enjoyed our stay in this area, dogs enjoyed the deck, walk around the lake and down to the campground, once we drove through the creek to the immediate right there was a nice trail that took you to a waterfall. My grandson learned to play fussball wanted Nana every morning to go play the “big game” (Pac-Man), I would recommend Old Barn Winery, Ashe County Cheese, Alpine Coaster and Tweetsie Railroad was a big hit. It rained the last day we were there which was perfect to use the fireplace. I would have like to have gotten the tv and dvd to work downstairs, but overall we had fun and enjoyed much needed family time. Sheila was responsive and was very informative, thanks again!

It’s a beautiful cabin with a very good feel to it. The owner was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. The upstairs shower is quite small and there’s no light.The clubhouse is awesome with a decent pool table and ping-pong and a really good gym for working out. The trail around the pond was a nice walk as well. It is a bit far into the mountain with high steep windy roads and about a 3 mile patch of gravel to get there.Also, the pictures showed canoes and kayaks on a lake which turned out to be a pond. When we got there, we were told that these are private canoes and kayaks, which sucked.

A lot to celebrate

We had a wonderful time and wish we could’ve extended our stay. It was nice and cozy, just as described. The kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable, and plenty of space for our group of 7 and the dog. We celebrated 5 November birthdays in our group. The weather could not have been more perfect! We enjoyed dinner outside on the open porch then the fire downstairs on the enclosed porch later in the evening. My only suggestion would be additional lighting in the kitchen. It was a bit hard to see while cooking. Overall it was a great experience!
