Wonderful vacation spot! All the supplemental info from Carolina Mornings was spot on (if you rent, pay attention to their driving directions — gps will try to take you the wrong way)

Incredible view

This cabin was perfect for our trip. Had everything we needed. Only issue was we tried to use 2 burners on stove while using the oven and it kept blowing the fuse.

Remarkable views

Overall we really did enjoy our time here and the views were out of this world. Cleaning could have been better and I agree with the previous review about crumbs in the sofas. The master bedroom is a little awkward since it’s a loft and open to the living room and has the smallest bathroom of all rooms. I had to shower in the downstairs shower. We really enjoyed the hot tub. The area of the cabin was at the very end of the wolf lodge development and a little creepy. We had a few random trucks pull up and back out once they saw our car. I heard this is a hang out for mars hill college kids when the ski lodge is closed. The overall development looked a little ran down and abandoned. The drive up wasn’t as bad as I read but the roads could use some attention. The drive into Asheville is 45 mins but not a bad drive. We frequent the mtns and the views here were unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and for sharing your experience. We're glad that despite the few issues you noted, you still enjoyed the views (which are truly out of this world!) as well as the cabin overall! We take guest feedback very seriously, and we're forwarding your comments to our housekeeping team to review the sofa and any other touch-ups that might be needed. If you ever find that the cleanliness isn't up to your standards please call us as soon as possible so we can have someone come and fix it right away. We apologize for not showing you our normally stellar standards on this stay. The ski resort is closed during the summer, of course, but many of our guests enjoy hiking the ski slopes and the mountain. We've also found that families enjoy the quiet experience with little to no traffic. We invite you to join us in winter and you'll see a lot more life on the mountain. :) Thanks again for staying with us and we hope to host you again soon!

Spring break vacation

We had a wonderful time social distancing in this cabin! (Covid-19)Plenty to do to stay busy and plenty of space for my family of 5. Only issue we ran into was during our stay the weather was A bit cold and allowed for ladybugs to invade the cabin. (Which I read can happen, and is probably an ongoing issue in that cabin) If the cabin got to warm the ladybugs would start to crawl out onto the ceiling. For the adults it wasn’t a huge deal but to my little ones, they were a bit scared of the “bugs”. There were dead ladybugs all over the floor which I had to constantly sweep up. So other then the ladybugs..... it was a great cabin. Big plus was the master loft bed was extra comfy!

California to Carolina

We came from California to explore the beautiful mountains of North Carolina and we were not disappointed! The weather in late September was great. This was a beautiful cabin, perfectly maintained. I was worried it would be smaller than pictured because of the camera angles, but it was just as presented. We had everything we needed for 3 people ... one room for each of us! The fact that it had cable television in the bedrooms was a plus. The road up to the resort is a bit winding but that is to be expected for a ski resort. The only reason I gave a 3-star rating for communication is because I tried to call on our check-out day (Saturday), to inquire about a late check-out, but they were closed. Otherwise, everything was perfect!

Beautiful home with stunning views!

This is a lovely spacious home with wonderful views of the mountains. There is plenty of room and could accommodate a large crowd comfortably. Everything was in top working condition. It's very warm and inviting. The beds were extremely comfortable and provided a great night's sleep. You are literally on top of a mountain so its a steep drive to the home but if taken slow, is no problem at all. This home is a stone's throw from the ski lift and a short drive into town. It is very well maintained. We had no prblems with wi-fi signals during our stay. We enjoyed the fireplaces, grill and pool table while we were there. It's absolutely the nicest home we've ever rented. We'll definitely be back!

Wonderful family vacation in the beautiful NC mountains!

Beautiful views, ample space for the whole family, and cooler temperatures in the mountains made for a wonderful vacation! The hot tub was great at the end of the day! Wish there had been more deck/outdoor seating, but overall this was a great property!! Would love to come back in the fall to see the colors!
