A Lovely Quiet Cabin Retreat
Our host was warm and helpful. My husband and I met my 93-year-old mother and 2 of my sisters to spend quality family time in one of our favorite parts of the country. We loved the beautiful wood construction and the general peacefulness of the cabin. We all love animals. So a particular highlight for us was the bevy of chickens and droll trio of ducks that live on the property, happy to snap up any little leftovers offered to them. We enjoyed watching movies together as the hosts generously provide streaming services to guests. This is in no way a slam on the property - it’s simply meant to be helpful. My mother did have some trouble negotiating the cabin and its surroundings. But, for anyone who doesn’t have difficulties moving around, we would absolutely recommend this place.

Cabin in the Woods
The cabin was very peaceful and perfect for our stay. It was located within 20 minutes of almost any type of restaurant you could want, but the kitchen allows you to choose to stay in and cook, as well. It had all the things we needed and met our expectations.

Great place for small group
This is a great place for small groups. It is in a good location, close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville and Hendersonville. It is fun to have the ducks and chickens around the cabin.

Great cabin in the woods.
Had an amazing stay here, inside is beautiful, all new with great woodwork, clean and well taken care of. Although there was nothing negative, I would recommend raising the upper bunk bed in the second room, there is very little space between those beds, very claustrophobic for anyone over 10 years old. Otherwise this is a great gem, and we look forward to visiting again!!!

Cozy cabin with peaceful porch
I wanted a true cabin in a woodsy setting for a reunion of three long-time friends. The wood paneling and rocking chairs on the porch facing west suited us well. The chickens and ducks wandering through were a bonus, as were their fresh eggs in the fridge! We looked for hiking trails which had been mentioned but didn't find much and Mary confirmed that they are yet to be developed. The kitchen was adequate for our simple meals and the beds were comfortable. We were glad we had good weather and could go on outings as the place was too cozy for three to spend full days on the property.

Nice stay!
We had a nice time staying here while we were in town for a wedding. It was close to everything we needed. Grocery store is right down the street. Some good hiking trails not too far away. We had a few minor issues at the house (water pressure, drainage); contacted the host and they fixed it right away! The host was very responsive!

Great weekend
Took my daughter for a Daddy daughter weekend and we had a blast. We went horseback riding in Pisgah and checked out Looking Glass Falls and Sliding rock. Sierra Nevada is only 10 minutes down the road and is an amazing place. Overall the unit is clean and well kept and served us well for our stay. Some improvements could be the mattresses/bedding and the AC unit.

Perfect spot for a quick getaway
Our family of four enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The property is located just a short drive from a grocery store and restaurants. Most local attractions are a short drive away. Our AWD vehicle was sufficient, as the driveway is not too steep. Kitchen was stocked with essentials and functioning appliances. Our kids enjoyed the chickens and watching deer from the porch. Just FYI, the top bunk’s mattress is flush with the railing, so keep in consideration if you have small kids. Overall, would recommend if you have a small family and are content with a smaller cabin!

Great convenient getaway
Our family of four enjoyed this cozy cabin. It is convenient to nature activities but also downtown Asheville. We all loved feeding the chickens and ducks and even saw deer. The firepit was where we ended each night either to grill out or just sit by the fire. We will always remember our stay here!

We were entertained by the chickens and ducks during our stay. They quickly learned we were a source of snacks. The owner was very helpful when we had key problems. The location is close to many attractions. Very nice accommodations.

Cabin in the woods
Quiet setting in the woods, away from traffic and hotel noise. Owners ducks and chickens visited each evening we got back from town and we fed them. Dozen eggs in the fridge from the chicks was a treat too. One full bed in master, bunk beds in second room, and a pull out sofa bed. 20-30 minute drive to Asheville and the Biltmore. Store is 4 miles away and plenty of things to do nearby.

Spotless rustic feel with modern conveniences
This property is an Amish built rustic style cabin that is absolutely flawless and clean as a whistle. The styling is just right, but all the modern conveniences are there. A nice blend. There are free range chickens and ducks on the property that will come visit and will safely and politely eat from your hands, a welcome treat for both you and the birds. At night it was comfortably dark and quiet. Excellent place to stay if you are visiting the Asheville area.
