It's as good in person as online!!
My wife and I stayed here with a couple of friends for my birthday weekend, and it was idyllic. The views are incredible and the cabin is nicely appointed with everything you might need. The road to the cabin is a bit steep and narrow, but we made it in a 2wd minivan. :)

Beautiful and cozy! The cottage was very clean and inviting. The price for my 3 day stay was not bad for what was there to utilize. Everything was as it should be, and I am already planning a second trip in the fall to Swannanoa and will reserve this same place, if available!

Loved our stay
We loved our stay. The only drawback is the drive to the house. Lots of lower income properties affected by hurricane, so a lot of dirt and not so great views. Once at the house, the story is different, beautiful views. The house was clean. Beds were hard but okay to sleep on. Good appliances. Overall great stay

Fantastic!
Felt cozy as soon as we arrived and walked in the door. Everything was clean and welcoming. No fuss entry. We had everything we needed and a few extras...like a tea box! Can't beat the view. It's quiet and private but not all alone on the mountain. We'd go again in a minute!

Mini Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay in North Carolina. We are from Michigan and wanted a break from the cold weather and a change in scenery. While we were visiting we disc golfed and golfed. The home was perfect for what we needed. We were a bit confused because the listing says whole house but you either get the top floor or bottom floor. It's two rentals in one. We had no issues though, the other renters were quiet and the neighborhood was peaceful. For those thinking of staying here, I would highly recommend, just know that the drive up the mountain is a bit scary if you are not used to the incline. The home was perfect!

Winter Getaway
Property was exactly as described! Perfect weekend getaway. The road up to the cabin was still well intact after the storm. The surrounding devastation was very apparent but every business we stopped by was so thankful to have customers(tourists) coming back. The cabin itself has a great deck for long range views and the indoor fireplace was perfect for the cold winter nights! Would stay again 10/10

Didn’t get to actually stay
Booked the cabin in advance. Drove 10 hours from IL to NC with my son. Got to the cabin, LONG way up to the cabin, got right in but noticed right away there was no heat or electricity. Long story short, owner called me back said we couldn’t stay, she had emailed me(but I had been driving 10 hours and hadn’t checked my email), a tree had fallen and knocked the electrical box off the house.She said VRBO was to find me another ndic

Great Place with Awesome View
This place is a gem. If you’re looking to be off to yourself in nature but with amenities of home this is perfect. So convenient to the Blue Ridge Pkwy, Catawba Falls, Black Mountain, and Asheville. The place was clean and tastefully decorated with an amazing view off the back deck. We’d definitely come back!

Very relaxing stay
This mountain cabin was so nice. Check in was easy and the place was pretty comfortable and well stocked. There's a wood burning stove and a balcony overlooking the mountains. The interior was well designed and up to date. Mattresses were a little firm but that's just personal preference.

Perfect spot for our family
This was such a nice escape up the mountain—the views, the peace and quiet—all while still being close enough to explore the surrounding sites. It was the perfect size for our family of four (two young children). We loved this well appointed space—a lovely cabin tucked into a beautiful setting.
