Beautiful views and beautiful cabin!

Spent a great week here for Spring break. Great location. Our favorite bed was the hanging bed on the porch. Very soothing sounds of nearby water. Very big open kitchen with plenty of space to cook. Book this place you won't regret it!

A great family cabin get away

The cabin was great place for our family to get together along with our dogs. The cabin is very well stocked with pots and pans and the necessities to cook about any meal. The open kitchen-living area was a favorite where everyone could be together in a big open space with views from the windows. The hot tub was great. The outside decks were great to relax on and to look out across the ponds and the woods behind the cabin. Would definitely rent this place again for our family get together.

Fantastic spot for our family vacation

This cabin was a fantastic spot for our family of eleven to stay for our first vacation with all our children, their partners, and our grandchildren. The cabin is gorgeous, unique, and filled with beautiful details. The large kitchen and living room were gathering places for deep discussions, games, meals, and fun. There was also enough space for everyone to have privacy. We watched the stars at night, cooked meals together, and reconnected in deep ways. We were close enough to drive to incredible hiking, rafting, and sites in Ashville. We had an unforgettable time as a family.

Great getaway for a holiday

We spent a cozy family Christmas at this spacious cabin outside of Asheville/Mars Hill. The cabin was easy to find, the hot tub was a favorite of the family, internet worked just fine for a cabin, and we had an enjoyable week- long stay.Only issues with the space were that the place needs a good cleaning, which might have been still delayed due to regional hurricane clean up. We also might recommend a set of instructions for how best to use their specific fireplaces as we are admitted novices and couldn’t figure it out despite the assistance of how-to videos so didn’t get to enjoy that part of the stay.Overall a nice place where our family enjoyed a memorable holiday.

Awesome spot

Beautiful cabin. Neighbors weren't super close so you did have some fun. The hike up the road was always fun. Host was responsive and kind. One thing that is out of their control that was a bit of a headache was the trash. Wish there was a large bin we could put it in. Trash on sunday was also a bit of a headache. Overall, great and incredible property, maintained, and unique!

Perfect bachelorette retreat

We had the best time at the cabin! It's much larger in person and the pictures don't give the area justice. There is a small pond stocked with koi and other fish a few steps away from the property. The AC wasn't working upstairs but the owner let us know ahead of time and installed window units prior to our arrival. They worked just fine. To get to some of the bedrooms, you have to walk through the garage but once there, it's cozy. Would highly recommend staying here!

Perfect family getaway

Cabin was actually as pictures shown online. Plenty of space for our 3 family stay. No one complained about the beds so they were all comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies & well organized. Rustic & historic decor. 2 fire places, well stocked with wood for burning. Hot tub worked great & was used a bunch. Reason for 4 stars on cleanliness is we found a vape at the bottom of the hot tub at first use. Obvious from prior users. Cob webs in various places. But it's a cabin so we expected that. Main floor stackable washer / dryer didn't really work, so we used the ones in the garage which worked perfectly. If we plan another trip to the area we would definitely stay again.

We had a nice long weekend for the American 250! Close to several towns to do things during the day, off the beaten path for quiet and peaceful relaxation. Two small ponds with a steady waterfall overflow that made the most peaceful sound to just relax and unwind. Large place with plenty of sleeping spots. Your family will enjoy!

We had a wonderful weekend in Mars Hill! This was our second stay at the house—our first was over 10 years ago. We enjoyed the covered porches, and cooked a number of meals in the kitchen. It was a comfortable stay for our group, and we will likely book a stay again in the future.

Overall, we enjoyed our time at the cabin. The location of the cabin and outdoor space was nice. The amount of open space in the cabin was ideal for our large group. We had one issue upon arrival, but the owner handled it promptly. Suggestions for improvement would include updating bedding, towels, and furniture in the living room. Also, the cabin could benefit from a deep cleaning especially in the kitchen/living areas. We did not use the basement level. It seemed cold and dark and windows did not have curtains or blinds. The driveway was a steep gravel, one lane path. We had a very difficult time driving back up to the cabin. I highly encourage all wheel drive.
