We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the cabin. It was just what we needed for a relaxing get away. We spent a lot of time on the back porch in the swing and rocking chairs. There was an internet issue but the host responded immediately to our call and resolved the problem..

This property is the ideal mountain getaway for couples or small families if you're looking for a cozy homey feel, secluded, lots of trees, beautiful mornings on the screened porch drinking coffee and enjoying nature and fresh air. It's also wonderful for fun playing pong and darts in the game room, watching movies, playing board games and putting together puzzles. Everything is right there in the cabin. Lots of trails and great restaurants nearby. The hosts, Jeannie and Ross, are great. Friendly, helpful, and adding wonderful little touches that are warm and welcoming. This was our fourth time staying at Rabbit Creek, and we'll be back again soon. It's our family's favorite.

Close to town without being in town, which was just what we needed. Driveway and turnaround were a little tight for our really big truck, but would be fine for an average vehicle. The screened in porch was the BEST!

We throughly enjoyed our stay at Rabbit Creek Hideaway. The cabin is secluded, yet close to town. It was very relaxing sitting in the screened porch watching the cattle grazing in the pasture. The cabin was very clean. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. Everything is exactly as described in the listing. The host, Jeannie, was very proactive with outstanding communications. Jeannie, thank you for the delicious homemade carrot cake jam!!

We enjoy this property very much. So close to WCU, making it so convenient moving in and moving out our daughter twice a year. The host makes it an easy transaction for renting and sending the information you need for the cabin. There are plenty of instructions for the use of different things in the cabin which is very helpful. She also makes the best jam. :)

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Rabbit Creek Hideaway. It was so relaxing and felt like home. The host was super thoughtful and even left a jar of their homemade jam for us. The cabin was also very convenient to all the shopping, but still felt secluded. Our favorite part was probably sitting on the back porch and watching the cows down in the pasture. If we ever go back to that area, we would love to stay there again.
