Beautiful View!

Our stay was very enjoyable. House was very clean. The view from the deck overlooking the valley below was amazing. Communication with the host was top notch. As stated in other reviews, the house does not have Wifi. We knew that when we booked, and it wasn’t a problem for us.

The view is amazing. Plenty of room. Please note the home doesn't have WiFi which was a bit of surprise especially in an area with poor cell coverage. Otherwise the home is in a great area with breathtaking views of Pilot mountain. The host was very responsive and helpful.

Foggy Sunday morning

Awesome vacation with my daughters! House was very well equipped. Got the lower level all to myself which was great. Sunday we woke up to fog, it was an all day fog. Probably the best day spent there. A lot of cooking and alot of napping. Spent one whole day in Mount Pilot. Seemed like we went to every shop downtown.

Beautiful view

Our favorite part of our stay was the deck and the beautiful view. We loved the house but the deck is where everyone wanted to be. Close to Mayberry which we had so much fun visiting, touring and exploring. Enjoyed Blue Ridge Parkway and our stops at Mabry Mill and Pilot Mountain. Hope to be able to return again! Becky is an amazing host!

Wonderful hosts!

The view was beautiful! Plenty of space, and bathrooms, for 6 women. Becky was awesome I'm at keeping in touch with any necessary information and questions. Once you pass through the access gate, the road up wasn't as bad as we thought it was going to be.. There is a spot that we named pipe alley because there is a pipe sticking up right in the middle of the gravel cut through you have to take to continue up to the cabin. This needs to be addressed by the community. It isn't anything Becky can handle. It isn't on her property. We had a great time and would recommend this place to others.

Mountain Top Memories

The cabin at Cascade Mountain Resort provided the perfect rendezvous spot to visit with friends we had not seen for several months due to relocating after retirement. The cabin was spacious and comfortable for three couples, the views were breathtaking and the fellowship was precious. All the ingredients for a memorable weekend. Also, our host, Becky, was always accommodating and prompt with our questions and requests.

Some things to like, some things to consider...

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. There is a lot to like about the property, especially the view. Honesty, the view alone is worth five stars, and the house itself is functional and decorated well. We had a few significant issues with our stay, primary among them was the infestation of caterpillars on the ground floor. The hosts were wonderfully responsive about this issue, however, there was nothing that could be done about the bugs because they had just treated the property for that very issue. My kids were staying on the ground floor, and were having to constantly step over caterpillars in their bedrooms and in the bathrooms, which stressed out one of my kids significantly, which kind of ruins that relaxed vacation vibe we were seeking. Also, a great deal of the furniture was either broken and/or in significant disrepair. For example, the porch rocker on the deck (as seen in the photos) was broken, along with the platform that you can see it resting on. The tall fabric stools on the deck were also in bad shape, with holes in the seats and/or collapsed in the middle. This is the same issue with all of the dining room chairs on the second level - they tried to put pillows in the seats to offset the collapse in the middle, but there was precious little support to be had from them. Also, the deck itself seems to be in pretty rough shape, especially the stairs and post caps, which were loose. Finally, the bed in the loft was awful because the mattress was broken/collapsed in the middle and overly firm around the outside. I deal with neck and shoulder issues, and sleeping on the loft bed exacerbated those significantly. Overall, the property served it's purpose as a home base while we visited Fancy Gap, however, I am not sure that we would stay here again unless the bug, deck, and furniture issues were resolved.

Family vacation

As a family we have had a rough 2022. This was the perfect place for us to be together and remember and laugh and cry.. the cabin had everything needed and was set up to make check in so easy. Becky was wonderful keeping us updated on the opening of the pool, etc. the view from the deck was absolutely amazing. Everyone loved the solitude that they talked about wanting to vacation there again.

Excellent place to stay with group of friends and family

It was an amazing staying in midst of mountains and woods. Very relaxing for all of our friends. Everything that we needed was there. We have spent most of our time watching stars at night, sitting with cup of tea in balcony and watching sun rises and sunsets. We also could cook our meals since everything was available.

About the host

Hosted by Becky Fescina

My husband, three children, and I reside in Clayton, North Carolina, a short 3 hours away. We use the cabin as often as possible, but also love to share it with others. For several years I was a special educator and school administrator. I currently work as a Community Education Specialist and teach courses on health and well being. We love the yard, the porch and the view along with the close proximity to so many festivals, history and events.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Fancy Gap's views one Thanksgiving. We rented a similar cabin and thought we needed to own a little slice of Heaven. What we love about Cascade Trail is the view! We also love the amenities this gated community provides for our family. The temperature is always at least ten degrees below any place else within miles. Our home is within a 3 hour drive which we can do on most weekends. We are only five miles down the Parkway from Highway 52 and convenient to Highway 77.

What makes this property unique

We are the very last home in the gated community. No road noise and peaceful, breathtaking views. The day we took ownership of the home we watched 7 deer meander in someone's yard. The wild flowers and vegetation are like nowhere else.
