The cabin is spacious and very comfortable inside and offers a beautiful view of Percy’s Peak off the back deck (and from the hot tub!). The surrounding area is very beautiful and a joy to explore, including the towns of Burnsville and Spruce Pine nearby. If you decide to stay in, the kitchen is one of the best equipped kitchens we’ve ever used in a rental home.
