Absolutely spectacular!

Th cabin was nothing short of spectacular. The log cabin boasts breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, making it an ideal spot for both relaxation and adventure. Each bedroom is private with its own bathroom, and the fully equipped kitchen made meal prep a breeze. The outdoor spaces, including the sundeck and balcony, were perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. I highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a serene mountain getaway.

It is so important to us that you have a wonderful experience while staying with us. We can provide custom information to help make your visit the best it can be. We stay engaged with the people that visit our mountain home and have several families that were repeat renters but now have fallen in love with the mountains and have purchased property here. at Gateway Mountain. We are always upgrading and maintaining our property and have another home on within walking distance from our new addition that that we have shared with so many. ( VRBO 230650 see our stellar reviews), and are able to provide the same level of service at our new home that so many have enjoyed. Our two properties are very well maintained and very clean just as we would expect if we were staying at your home. We hope to have you as our guest at our new mountain home "Miller High Life".

Why they chose this property

We are only 10 minutes off of I-40, just East of Asheville. Black Mountain is about 15 to 20 minutes away with a huge Ingles grocery store so you can pick up anything you need.
