Perfect

We had a fantastic time ! The cabin was just what we wanted, enjoyed our time cooking on the fire and having a grill and a stove was fantastic on colder days. The owners dad stopped by to do yard maintenance and was extremely friendly. Having Fayetteville close by was a big plus too!

Great experience

My boyfriend and our puppy stayed 2 nights. It was a peaceful and safe experience. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your location. It was only a short distance Summerville lake. It rained for a portion of our stay but it was nice and cozy inside. Good tyme to relax and read.

No power

The cabin was beautiful and it was close to the lake. The only complaint that I have is the power went off around 2AM and never came back on. This put a damper on the process of getting ready and packing up.

Perfect weekend get-away

My 90 year old mother lives in Summers ille, but never gets out of her apartment. So my daughter and I rented this adorable cabin as a vacay for us ( from NC) and her. It was perfect. She uses a walker and could easily get into the cabin and sit outside. She loves the bed. She is about 4"11 and easily got into and out of the bed. I slept on the sleeper sofa and had no problems. My daughter loves the loft bedroom. We felt completely private in the hot tub and had no problems. The cabin is great and we look forward to renting it again in the future.
