Absolutely WONDERFUL stay. House was beautiful and inviting, beds comfortable, and the property was large and wonderfully private. Perfect location for hiking waterfall trails. The only hang-up I encountered was that the room over the garage with the 4 twin beds was not accessible via the house. Upon rechecking the listing, it was included that the room was accessible via spiral staircase, but I did not realize that meant spiral staircase ONLY. You cannot access it from inside. My intent was to have my children share this room but for safety reasons (needing to lock the door at night and potentially not being able to enter in an emergency) we ultimately decided against it. We were, however, able to make good use of the large futon for my oldest and the oversized recliner for my youngest. Both said they were very comfortable and slept well. Overall, my family LOVED our stay and would not hesitate to return. The character and charm of this place has made it one of my absolute favorite spots.

Wedding Week!

We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Mark's cabin for 4 days and 3 nights leading up to our wedding, and it truly exceeded all our expectations! The cabin itself is beautiful, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped, providing the perfect setting for such a special occasion. We hosted our rehearsal dinner here, and it was an unforgettable experience. Mark went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. From the very beginning, he was extremely helpful and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. Throughout our stay, he maintained consistent contact to check in and make sure everything was going smoothly, which we greatly appreciated. As if his kindness and hospitality weren’t enough, Mark surprised us with a complimentary bottle of wine and a thoughtful congratulatory note, which added such a personal and memorable touch to our visit. This cabin provided the perfect backdrop for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. We cannot recommend Mark’s place highly enough for anyone looking for a beautiful, welcoming, and well-cared-for space. Thank you, Mark, for helping make our wedding week so special!

In a nutshell

Great! There were no steep, winding gravel roads to drive on to get to the property. The cabin was clean, beautiful and quiet. It was exactly as advertised. We saw deer each morning while enjoying the cool weather and coffee. The view from the porch is exceptional . . . mountain views through the trees. The bean slingshots were a huge hit with the college kids.

Annual Family Mountain Trip

We stayed at this cabin for our annual summer family trip. The location was excellent and the cabin itself was not on top of other houses. The owner Mark stays on the property, we never saw him, but is available should the need arise. The home has a large kitchen table for family meals and sharing stories. The front porch has rocking chairs for enjoying the sounds of nature and the cool mountain evenings. The fire pit is close to the house and front porch where people can stay on the porch and still enjoy the fire and conversation. If you are looking for a place that doesn't have the corporate feel, but one of a more personal touch, this is a good choice and you won't be disappointed.

Whirlwind WCU Orientation

Very quick mountain trip for our granddaughter's orientation. Ive rented several properties through VRBO but never one that was as well stocked and cozy as this one. Our host, Mark, was so accommodating. Everything was perfect. My only regret is we didn't have more time to enjoy the area. The description of this property is spot on. We are looking forward to visiting again soon.

Just perfect

Mark, the owner, was incredible from initial booking through checkout. His property is absolutely the most well stocked of any we have ever stayed in. Literally, bring your people and food and some firewood. Then, sit back and enjoy the view, the porch, the fire pits, the stargazing, the quiet. A perfect Christmas holiday in the mountains.

Great Cabin… beautiful views.

We loved our mountian cabin getaway. The house is very spacious for the family to spread out but also cozy. The views are amazing. Being able to watch deer graze while drinking coffee on the front porch was a much needed break from our daily rushed routine. You can tell Mark takes pride in his home/property. He was very helpful with all my questions and made sure we everything we needed. It was a pleasure for my family to have the opportunity to stay in this cabin. We can’t wait to come back!

Great Cabin!!!!

What a great place to stay! Everything about Mark’s cabin was awesome! From the communication, the directions to the cabin, the location everything was perfect. The cabin was very clean and everything was in its place. Plenty of the essentials were available in the kitchen and bathrooms. Beautiful sunrises from the porch or living room and the stars at night were incredible. A great base location for all of the amenities that the mountains of NC provide. We will definitely be returning!

Excellent cabin

We really enjoyed our stay. The owner made us feel very welcomed. There was a bottle of wine and a lovely welcome note. The kids enjoyed checking the chicken coop each morning for fresh eggs. There was plenty of paper goods and pantry with spices and a few left behind food. Plenty of towels and blankets and a supplied toilet paper and paper towels, which you don’t normally get with a cabin stay. This place is highly recommended and will stay in the future.

There was something for everyone to do in the area, weather certainly could have been better, but we all managed to find something to do. I love your chickens. Wanted to have back yard chickens myself, but $1 I don't think they are allowed here in Flagler Beach and #2 Mark would have to come and build me a coop like his :-) because the ones at Tractor Supply can't compare.

Mark is the best host! He responds as fast as he can. He wants to make sure your stay is what you want it to be. His cabin is perfect location.
