A Great RESET

We came up for a few days to take a step back from this world and reset. This was a perfect place for us. We had two very small issues the first day and they were both resolved within an hour of me reaching out. Best customer service ever. We will be back each year in our little cabin.

Birthday expended weekend

Great location. Close to Asheville. There are other rentals on the property but they are located so you have privacy. The loft bed is very firm, my husband slept great. Be cautious with the hot water, the shower head puts out a lot of water, it runs out if you like long hot showers. The TV is very small (approximately 22 inch). If you like to relax and watch TV, this might not be the cabin for you. The porch is wonderful to sit on nice mornings and afternoons. The fireplace works amazing! We had a great stay!

Cabin Fever

Cabin fever was never a problem even though it was winter time in Black Mountain. We enjoyed shopping on a rainy day and enjoyed hiking around the cabin and ponds on the sunny days. We enjoyed some local restaurants and spending time by the wood stove.

The Cabin

The Cabin was beautiful, very cleaned and organized, cozy and perfect for our anniversary plans. We fell in love with the area and plan to come back with our family to a bigger property and enjoy the surroundings. Leigh was very attentive to my messages and very nice in person when we meet. I appreciate the experience and hope to come back soon. Thanks!

Great Cabin

We had a wonderful stay in the cabin. Probably because it was off-season and holiday weekend, it felt like we were the only ones there. The wood burning stove was preset to start a fire and everything we needed was in the kitchenette. We arrived late and missed the entrance, but the owners graciously met us and led us to the correct spot. Highly recommended!!

Just as We Hoped

Great, cozy little cabin that is legitimately in the woods yet only 15 minutes from shopping and excellent food in Black Mountain. Cabin was perfect for the two of us (and dog). If we ever go back to Black Mountain or Asheville, we will definitely stay here again if it is available.

Everything you could want and more!

This little cabin was perfect. The hosts thought of everything. The fireplace was fully stocked with wood when we got there. There is a mini fridge/freezer, 2 countertop burners, coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven, crockpot and more. We really enjoyed our stay.

The one extremely trivial issue I had was the outlet for the TV. I Use a different outlet. That’s it

The cabin is much nicer than I expected. Very comfortable clean and fully equipped. Thank you for great accommodations!

Quiet spot

Rustic romantic and peaceful…if you’re looking for a place to slow your pace, this is it. We enjoyed walking the dogs around the grounds- plenty of gravel drives to explore. Follow those directions closely to find the cabin. And you may want to plan for your dogs to stay separate from you at night, as the spiral stairs are not dog accessible, unless you carry them of course. Peace!

Fun, relaxing getaway

The only issues were the size of the TV, candy wrappers in the window sill, dirty windows and cob webs. It's an old cabin for sure but could use a deep clean.

beautiful

beautiful home with some quirks. it's a 100 y/o cabin what do you expect. my only complaints is lights either not working or not plugged in. the large light that worked was filled with dead bugs and needed cleaned. the cobwebs in the corner of the upper windows needed to be removed. overall I felt clean and comfortable. wifi was adequate for streaming but tv was not smart ready. great loc and quiet. plans are in the work to make this a yearly home.
