This was a gorgeous location, close to but not in Asheville. Small place, but adequate for our needs. Clean, well appointed, and the owner was very responsive. Evenings on the porch were sublime. We would stay again!
This property is exactly as advertised. Cute cabin on a fishing pond, my daughter had a blast pulling out sunfish all day. Very quiet area and still close proximity to Asheville, shopping, hiking, ziplines, breweries. Best of both worlds! Saw a hot air balloon going through the valley one morning and then got 4th of July Fireworks at night, lots of wildlife to boot. Overall special experience. The host is extremely responsive to any questions.
My husband and I absolutely loved the cabin. The view at night as well as during the day was breathtaking. Due to staying on the 4th of July weekend, we had the awesome experience of viewing fireworks all around us. We loved it! Definitely going to return.
We so enjoyed our time at the property! It was beautiful and peaceful, and we had everything we needed. Even in a hurricane, we had a blast. Excellent property and we look forward to staying there again!
Fabulous serene equipped w absolutely. Kim is Terrific, EVERYTHING you would need is already there!
I cannot talk this place up enough. Kim, the landlord is Johnny on the spot if you need anything. However, the cabin has everything crockpot, electric skillet, wok, plenty of Tupperware, mixer, cheese grater—in the kitchen great knives, just fantastic.
This cabin has the best view right in the back yard! I absolutely loved the scenery. At night with the fire pit, pretty lights, and views of the stars is one of my favorite memories from the cabin.
Enjoyed the peace and quiet. My husband and I enjoyed being so close to the pond and being able to fish whenever we wanted. My family and I enjoyed watching the dragonflies and the butterflies flying near the edge of the pond. Beautiful!
Cozy house. Very small but sufficient. No doors on the bedrooms, just curtains.
I made our meals while we were there and had to adapt a bit when using the kitchen. No plates that I could see. Glad I thought to grab paper plates last minute or we would have had to eat out of the pans. No food wrap, tin foil or plastic wrap at all. But we made it! We just found other solutions! Loved the cute little stove!
Very nice, calm, relaxing, couple of days. Didn't have to contact the owner at all as everything was explained well in the emails and we had no problems.
Easy to find and checking in was a breeze. Glad we were able to book it on a short notice. Really enjoyed our stay! Thank you for sharing your home!
This little cabin is simply amazing. Very clean and neat. Kim, the host was super helpful. If you want a nice get away, book this place. We can't wait to go again.
This was a bit of a girls trip for my daughter & I. I wasn't prepared for how far out in the country we would be but it was absolutely beautiful. The setup was beyond my expectations and Kim was very attentive and understanding. She even adjusted our stay after our flight got canceled. Rest assured we will be back!

Beautiful cabin
Absolutely great cabin ! Very clean , had filtered water and the pantry was stuffed with all the equipment for cooking/ baking / cleaning . Lots of personal touches , made me feel at home . Also free wood for the burner , great location. All you need to unwind
My boyfriend and I chose the spot because of the amazing views that this cabin offers. The scenery the mountains and the water right in front of the cabin is amazing I couldn’t have imagined spending in a more romantic spot! The view at night of the incredible stars was incredible! The cabin also had lights on it and it made it feel like it had a touch of Christmas as well! The fire pits made the cabin amazing! The perfect get away!
This lil place was spectacular. It had everything you could ask for from a quaint little cabin with a wood burning wood stove to its very own pond with a family of geese. It was very clean and very well stocked with everything you might need even had a variety of k cups for the keurig. I would definitely stay there again.
