Thank you so much! We are thrilled that you found the house gorgeous and the beds comfortable—we know how important a good night’s sleep is on vacation! We love that our location offers that quiet mountain feel while still being just a short drive from the downtown energy. It was a pleasure working with you, and we’d love to have you back again soon!

Absolutely Beautiful!!!

We attended our granddaughter’s wedding so we didn’t stay that long but the house is beautiful!! The view from the balcony every morning was beautiful as I drank my coffee. The house is very accommodating for a large family. The hosts have it set up for relaxing and enjoying your stay. My grandchildren enjoyed a hike up and down the mountain. We would definitely recommend this house to anyone going to be in the area and looking for a large house to stay in. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely book again.

Quiet relaxing stay

The property was beautiful, and quiet with a gorgeous view. Very relaxing and great for a large group. There were a few small missed details such as batteries, dishwashing soap and trash bags. (Be prepared for spiders.) Overall very nice place, secluded and the hot top was clean and hot!

I came here for my bachelor trip and it certainly did not disappoint. The views were breathtaking, the kitchen was very nice and the hot tub was the icing on the cake. Relatively easy to get up the mountain compared to other cabins I have stayed in the past. FIVE STARS would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone!

Thank you so much! We are honored you chose our home for such a special celebration. We’re thrilled the views and the kitchen hit the mark for your group, and we agree—the hot tub is the perfect way to end a day on the lake. It's also great to hear that the drive up was smooth for you! We’d love to host you and your friends again for a reunion in the future.

Great time in Asheville

Our group loved the house and it was perfect for our weekend in Asheville. The house was clean and tidy when we arrived. Lots of beds to sleep our group of 12. Master bedroom was massive and very nice. Loved the outdoor areas and spent a lot of the weekend on the back porch. Easy to get to downtown Asheville from the house. Would definitely recommend this house for groups.

Clean home and plenty of space for larger groups. The view from the back porch is beautiful! We spent more time on the porches than anywhere else in the house.
Early spring visit, so not all the leaves had come in on the trees yet, but the view was great nonetheless. Picture doesn't do it justice - great view to have along with a morning coffee.

Thank you so much! We are thrilled that you enjoyed the back porch as much as we do—there’s really nothing like that view to help you slow down and relax. We’re so glad the house provided the space and cleanliness your group needed to feel right at home. We’d love to have you back for another peaceful stay on the porch soon!

We loved this cabin! The atmosphere was very clean, warm, and inviting. We especially enjoyed the fireplaces, gas fire pit (on the back porch), and hot tub! There was plenty of room for our family to spread out, relax, and enjoy our stay. The host was very responsive--quickly replying to all questions we had. We look forward to going back!!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled that your family felt right at home and enjoyed the 'warm and inviting' atmosphere we strive to create. The gas fire pit on the back porch is one of our personal favorite spots to relax, so we’re glad it was a hit for you too! It was a pleasure assisting you with your questions, and we truly look forward to welcoming your family back to the cabin for another stay.

Great Place to Stay

Really nice place with great amenities. Only thing I would note is it is best that your car is all wheel drive to get to the cabin. The gravel road gets really steep heading to the cabin. Normal cars can make it but it is a heavy workload on them.

We had an amazing stay at this house in Asheville. The home was beautiful, well kept, and had great views that made it a perfect place to relax. It was spacious and comfortable, and everything was exactly as described. The best part was getting to spend quality time there with close friends. It truly felt like a place you could unwind, enjoy the scenery, and make great memories. We would absolutely stay here again.

Awesome stay at the cabin - only 20 minutes into downtown Asheville yet feels like a world away. Convenient, spacious (plenty of room for our group of 8), clean, and a very communicative and accommodating host. What more could you want?

Everything is exactly as shown and described. The driveway is a little steep coming in, but it’s manageable. We had a wonderful two day stay with a full cabin of adults and kids. The cabin exceeded everyone’s expectations, and the view from the deck is incredible.

Pre-Thanksgiving Family Time

In honor of my mother who passed at Thanksgiving five years ago, my sister and I take our children and grandchildren on a short getaway around this time each year. This cabin was easy to get to, well stocked and beautifully scenic! We visited the Asheville Arboretum for the Troll exhibit and Winter Lights. We made use of all of the fireplaces and really appreciated that they were all easy to use and had a propane connection.

The Cabin was above and beyond anything that we could have ever expected. My wife and I were there for our 19th anniversary and really enjoyed the total privacy of the home. The owners were super responsive with any questions. The hot tub worked great and had the best views morning and night. The house itself was well stocked, very clean and everything was laid out perfectly. This place was certainly a diamond in the ruff and far exceeded our expectations. 10 stars if I could

We put a lot of thought into the layout and keeping everything well-stocked, so hearing that it exceeded your expectations means the world to us. Thank you for the '10 stars'—we would love to have you back for your 20th!

The best secluded cabin for a large group!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin! There were 9 of us total and there was plenty of space for everyone. The outdoor deck was our favorite! It has a large sectional with a dining table that made for the perfect hang out spot. We also enjoyed a night in the hot tub so it was a nice bonus. The house was very clean and the water was HOT so showers were great! They are no neighbors within eyesight of the cabin so it felt secluded enough without being too far away. We were only about 20-25 minutes outside of Asheville so the location was perfect. If you are looking for the true mountain/cabin vibes for a large group, book now!

Fantastic, but driveway a little narrow

My family and I really enjoyed our stay! There were a lot of us (8 adults, 5 kids, and 2 infants) but there was enough room for everyone. The inside of the cabin was absolutely spotless and was very cozy! We had a great time. While it’s true that the driveway right next to the house is paved, the road up the hill leading there is a dirt road with some gravel. It was raining every day of our trip and our cars did okay making it up the steep hills, but in one area the road is narrow enough that two cars going in opposite directions cannot easily pass each other. My sister’s 2017 KIA Sedona got stuck in a ditch after she moved over to let a truck pass, but two good samaritans helped us pull the car out of the ditch. I would recommend future guests avoid bringing wide cars for that reason.

Very Relaxing!

This was a great place to stay! Very peaceful and felt right at home! Would definitely recommend! Plus it is close enough to Asheville but also far enough away to relax.
