Birthday retreat.

We traveled to NC for my husband’s birthday. Although it was a short visit we enjoyed our mini vacation. We love the area. Cabin always feels like home now since we’ve been for several years. Looking forward to coming back again in the fall. Thanks to the host Sandra.

Much needed respite

Other than the unforseen smoke from the fires it was just what i needed. Only 1 day was pretty bad but that evening things cleared out. I was very much needing a rest and it definitely fulfilled my needs. This was the second time staying amd will stay again

beautiful home and location

This home is beautiful, perfectly clean, feels very comfortable, well appointed kitchen, very comfortable mattresses and bedding . . . I could go on and on with the positives and I can't think of a single negative thing to say. I will simply say my family and I highly recommend this home and we will definitely stay here again if we return to this area (which we hope to do).

Sisters birthday getaway

We loved this cabin last year and stayed again this February for our sisters' birthday getaway. Sandra is most accommodating and goes beyond the call of duty to make us comfortable and provide for our wants and needs. Though it rained the whole time, we kept a nice fire going in the fireplace and enjoyed just being together. The cabin is neat and clean, and we had everything we needed. The location is away from the beaten path, but that is exactly what we wanted. Thank you, Sandra!

Wonderful stay in Pisgah Forest

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Whitaker

Host profile image
Thirteen years ago we bought 13 acres of land to build a cabin to vacation in with plans to later build a small retirement home and use the cabin as quest quarters. When we ended up building a larger house than planned, we decided to rent out the cabin.

Don is a retired Cardiologist, and Sandra is a retired teacher. We have hiked this area for over 30 years and knew that we would want to spend the rest of our lives here.

While we genuinely love hiking, Don is passionate about taking pictures of wild flower and nature, and Sandra is very active at Brevard Health & Racquet Club.

It’s great being able to walk out our door with our dogs to so many beautiful trails. There is so much wild life to discover.
