Our private getaway at this cabin was exactly what we needed for a quiet, bonding experience. The space was spotless and welcoming. Entry was easy with a door code, and the host provided clear, detailed instructions and expectations for the property.The cabin was thoughtfully set up with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, which made our stay extremely comfortable. All appliances worked perfectly, and the fireplace added a cozy touch that made the evenings feel especially peaceful. I also appreciated the binder on the table that listed nearby activities like skiing and rock climbing, it was helpful and made planning our days effortless. The back patio view of the mountains was absolutely stunning. Even though the temperatures were too cold for us to enjoy the jacuzzi, it was clean, functional, and ready for use.The only caution I would mention is that the mountain roads leading to the property can be a bit tricky and require careful driving. Aside from that, everything about the stay felt serene, intimate, and well taken care of. Highly recommend for couples looking for a relaxing, private retreat in the mountains.

Planned to use the grill, grill was in poor shape all rusted and dirty. Even if I wanted to clean it, both tanks were empty. It was very disappointing. Overall house was just meh, not what I expected for 500 a night. Oh well.

Great getaway!

Great stay, beautiful place. A little worried about the back deck as it has a lean and hot tub water level is very uneven. Otherwise they gave us a late check out without asking witch was great! I clean cabins too. 20 years. I would stay again.

Girls trip

We found this spot for a quick girls hiking trip. It was a perfect size for us. Easy to find, easy access to get in the house and great location to everything. We definitely enjoyed the hot tub after a long day of hiking and enjoyed the amazing view while drinking coffee in the mornings.

Cozy scenic spot

This place was all we needed for a cozy mountain weekend celebrating our sons birthday. It's close to fun activities, private, beautiful scenic view of the mountains from the hottub, and though it is a bit outdated inside it didn't detract from our experience at all. We loved that it had a ping-pong ball set up for the dining room table for our boys.

The Bird's Nest was great!

This is a quiet, clean and lovely place. You are up in the tree tops with a beautiful view. It has a well-stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes and cookware. It is beautiful inside. The only thing I had to get used to were the vertical turns going up the mountain roads to get there. But once there, it is lovely. I would definitely stay there again.

Great View

The property had a great view from the back of the home but even better in the front, the house across the street has a peach tree and the deer pretty much stay there all day eating so no matter the time of day you get to see deer all the time. The house itself is quite a bit outdated but overall clean accept for the master bedroom ceiling fan which is pretty dusty and we could not use due to allergies. It doesn’t have clean fresh feeling like other places we have stayed at , the bathroom rug in the master bath was absolutely filthy looks like it has never been washed and the curtains are all to small for the windows. If it was cleaned and updated it would have been worth more than what we paid just because of the scenery. But because it doesn’t have that nice clean feeling I would be hesitant to stay again

Amazing views with secluded feel

This property had gorgeous views of the mountains. While there are houses around, it is situated to give you a very secluded feel. The jacuzzi tub was amazing as was the hot tub. While it was just me and my husband this would be a great rental for having another couple along as well. Everything was clean and as advertised and close to Boone, Linville, and Beech mountain. Couldn’t have asked for a better property or location. Can’t wait to go back.
