Absolutely beautiful getaway! Stream/river in front so hearing the water is so relaxing. You’re hidden but can get to everything you might need or interested in seeing in no time. Mixup in communication: owner sends you an email the DAY you are arriving which I never saw. Entry instructions were in the email. VERY tight on the road which we navigated in the pitch dark due to an accident that held us up. Cabin is extremely comfortable and well stocked!!! There’s a Kuriq but bring the cups. I’d book again!

About the host

Hosted by Ena Fuste De Armas

Host profile image
We were both born in Cuba. Came to the US at a young age. Both grew up in Miami and met here in beautiful NC.
We live in the small bedroom community of Kernersville NC.

Why they chose this property

Since I can remember, I have longed to be by a river. I know that when I am near the feel and sound of a river, there is something so healing and calming that words cannot describe. So when the opportunity presented itself, we felt like this place was a God send. We cherish every moment we spend at the cabin and would one day retire here. This is truly a little piece of Heaven.

What makes this property unique

I love the front porch swing, and how it feels to just sit there. Every season bring with it a different feel. The river is spectacular with its ever changing flow. There are large mature trees overlooking the river on the mountain side. Sometimes the wind flows in such a way that you can hear nature talking to you. Wildlife is abundant. I love the decorations on the front porch.
