Second floor loft features a sleeping area with private balcony, full bath, and living/game area with a foosball table and futon sofa.

Outdoors, guests love spending time on the wrap around porch, or at the fire pit with a soothing waterfall fountain.

Property was very nice and clean with adequate parking. Host was responsive and helpful. Check in was accommodating for my needs. The key in was difficult because of the confusing manner in which we had to accomplish it. Thank goodness the host was promptly responsive and helped us.

Relaxing cabin with nice views

Overall, our family had a wonderful time at this cabin. I do advise people to try to arrive before dark as your GPS might send you down the wrong driveway. We enjoyed the cabin, the jacuzzi and loved the water feature next to the firepit. The only negatives were that the fireplace nor the grill were in working order. The owner did say that they are providing a credit back to our account for the inconvenience.

Country Calm

We stayed at this property because we wanted to be secluded by the mountains but still close enough to travel to Asheville and Chimney Rock. This property was perfect. The listing was accurate and manager communication was swift. Our expectations were met. We would stay here again.

We loved the cabin. It was a wonderful place and everything promised was delivered. The owners were very helpful and flexible with early check in and late check out to accommodate our needs. We were thrilled with how well stocked the kitchen was to make some nice meals.

Great family time!

We enjoyed a great long weekend reconnecting with our four adult daughters and two of their boyfriends. It was the perfect space to relax and enjoy beautiful sunsets, the fire, and fountain! A lovely time was had by all! The owners were very attentive to our needs and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend time with family! Enjoy!
