My family and I recently stayed for a short time here and the cabin was perfect & peaceful. We were looking for a getaway for serenity and this checked all the boxes. Especially loved the theme throughout the cabin. I would definitely recommend to our family and friends. Thanks for having us!
Beautiful and peaceful location with cozy accommodations. Thoroughly enjoyed both the location in one of the most tranquil spots you will find east of the Mississippi. I rarely get a chance to getaway and cannot think of a better place to have been to enjoy that time. Great proximity to Banner Elk and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Everything was as advertised. Very quiet place tucked away from everything. We wanted a place to unplug for a few days and the cabin was just the right place. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to get away from it all.
Everything about our little getaway was what we had in mind. Very peaceful and it was very nice to relax in the hot tub. We also went on a walk around the property! 10/10 recommend and we will be booking again!
Very private and quite. Just what i needed. We enjoied exploring the history of the area from Elk Park to linville falls,especilly Crosnore
I would recommend this property to those wanting a secluded get away.
Owner is easy to communicate with and over all a very nice rental
The peace and solitude of this homestead were exactly what I needed. The dated decor was surprising, but the view from the porch, wonderful hot tub, access to the pond and land, and privacy were absolutely amazing. And that hill up the mountain was no joke! Thank you for a great getaway.
This place was absolutely amazing! My husband, 2 kids and myself loved everything about it and were definitely sad to leave. We hiked all around the property, caught fish and rowed around the pond, picked blueberries, blackberries and apples. We saw deer everyday, along with a couple bunnies, groundhogs, lightning bugs and hummingbirds. We made s'mores at the fire pit and the hot tub was fun and relaxing. It was a magical place that we'll definitely have to come back to!
This is my favorite mountain retreat we’ve stayed at yet. It is isolated, quiet, beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The water is good, the couches are comfortable, and it is heaven.
We arrived during a rain storm, and the approach was a little intimidating, but four wheel drive took care of it just fine. The hiking trails are beautiful and make for the best day.
Thanks!
It was nice, the drive was definitely nerve wracking on wet roads but my AWD had no trouble making it up there. It was smaller than expected but served is purpose. The beds were SO comfortable but we couldn't get the TV or fireplace to work. The house ladbugs were our favorite! We cooked, sorry and left.
We came up for a late anniversary celebration. The property is on a mountain. With front-wheel drive you would not have any issues driving up. The property is beautiful, lots of space, lovely apple trees, pond was nice to fish from. We sat outside every morning with our coffee. Our inside dog loved sitting on the porch all day.
We had a great time at the cabin over this past weekend. Very secluded location but close by to many attractions for hiking. The road is very steep so heed the warning about 4WD or AWD. The directions provided were spot on. The surrounding property was gorgeous with many wildflowers, wild life & so many apple trees. The hot tub was relaxing & porch was great for our morning coffee. The cabin was appointed with all of the cooking gear we needed to prepare meal. One word of warning is there is no air conditioning but thankfully it was a fairly cool weekend. Amazing stay overall!
My wife and I couldn't have asked for a better anniversary trip. The location is absolutely stunning, and very secluded. The drive just to get to the cabin is beautiful. We loved getting out on the pond in the john boat. Jim and Diana were extremely helpful and responsive. The cabin was well stocked, clean, and we appreciated the nice touch of the care package basket. It was nice to have something to snack on after a day on the road. There's so many different things to do within a 30 min to 1 hr drive of the cabin, or just stay on site and enjoy being disconnected. Look forward to staying again one day!
It was exactly what my husband and I needed.
I gave a 3 star rating for cleanliness because I was being kind. The kitchen and bathrooms were fine but overall the cabin accessories need a thorough dusting.
The mattress was one of the best that I’ve experienced away from home and the towels for bathing were very nice and soft.
The bathroom was a bit chilly because the heaters weren’t working but we survived.
I would definitely go back for another quiet retreat.

The property itself and check on process was wonderful. Although the rules and guidelines were not specific on what we could and couldn’t do. We were charged for using firewood for the fire pit but were no instructions saying other wise. Charged extra for dishes in the sink ( thought that’s what the cleaning fee was for) the owners had lots of complaints and extra which was unfortunate.

We enjoyed our brief family stay at the peaceful quiet cabin, the kids enjoyed exploring the grounds and the pups enjoyed the space to run.
We had a lovely time here. The property is great with lots of trails to explore. Enjoyed the hot tub and rocking on the front porch. Great location and beautiful area.
The road to get to the cabin, I would definitely recommend 4x4. The house was very spacious and the pond was nice. I love how the hot tub is apart of the front porch, so you just step into it vs having to step over it. It was worth the 4:30 drive
Very relaxing property. Our dog (and us) loved the pond. We saw many deer in the mornings. The road to get to the property was not at all daunting with our AWD Subaru.
