Best VRBO experience ever!

We absolutely loved this cozy cabin up in the mountains! This was the best and easiest experience I’ve had with vrbo and I would love to stay at this place again. Great host and great communication. The hot tub and fire pit was a huge plus especially with this time of the year we used both every day we stayed!

This home is wonderful. It is far enough out that there is complete silence at night while we sat around the fire or in the hot tub, but still close enough to access lots of fun activities and amenities. We fell in love with the area!

Christmas Getaway

We had a lovely time at the cabin. It is private and peaceful and close to Franklin and Highlands. It takes a bit of time to get down the mountain, so meal planning ahead of time helps with that. There are plenty of places to relax inside and outside of the cabin and the scenery is beautiful. Internet works great if you need to do some work. We hope to get back there next year!!

Perfect place to relax

Loved everything about the property. Furniture was very comfortable, had fire wood onsite for us to have a fire in the fire pit, and the hot tub was awesome too. Went gem mining at Rose Creek gem nine and had a beer at Currahee Brewery. Highly recommend both. We will be back here for sure - the fall colors have to be amazing!

Beautiful Mountain Vacation

This cabin was wonderful for our family’s Thanksgiving gathering. It is beautifully decorated and so cozy. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for cooking. The downstairs was amazing for the kids, with two bunk beds, games, and a big TV. We enjoyed time outside by the campfire, watching the sunset over the mountain ridge, and hiking up and down the dirt/gravel road that the cabin is on. Wonderful weekend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us.

Fantastic property

The property is fantastic. Just the two of us stayed, but we have already saved it in our favorites for the future with our family. There wasn’t anything that we needed l, that wasn’t available. You probably want to make sure you have all the groceries you need when you get there. We stayed here because our daughter is at WCU, we may stay here instead of Asheville in the future as well.

Mountain Paradise

Simply wonderful. I did have my heart skip a few times on the single-lane dirt road to get to the cabin, but it was worth the wait! Immaculate, the best stocked rental property I've ever seen, and 99.9% of everything worked (that's usually 80-85%). And I'm being picky. We like to change it up and go to different places in the WNC mountains. We will come back here!
