Great cabin. Cozy but plenty of room just as described. Was hiking and mountain biking with sons. Well maintained driveway that’s not too steep. Loved the big front porch.

Perfect location

We had the most relaxing stay. Very tranquil and we didn't want to return home. Highly recommend for a great way to recharge. The internet was spotty but that just made it that much more secluded and helped us engage more with each other.

Pleasant Stay!

Two couples. We enjoyed our stay in this cabin near a wedding venue. Many kitchen and bath amenities made our stay comfortable and the cleanliness was A+. We enjoyed the outdoor deck, porch, and fire pit. A neighbor's dog frequented the outdoor areas but was not a nuisance. Overall, great place to stay.

Beautiful cabin and excellent service from the host!

The host, Ian, made the stay seamless and enjoyable! The cabin was nicely stocked with essentials (toilet paper/linens/kitchen supplies etc.) and Ian was always extremely quick to respond anytime I had a question. We did have an issue with the breaker box but he responded within minutes and had an electrician out within 15min to have it fixed. The cabin was centrally located for a short drive to Grandfather mountain/ blowing rock/ Boone and Linville. We definitely enjoyed our stay and I highly recommend!

Beautiful Cabin

We loved our stay here! Highly recommend! It is secluded and yet close to so many things. The cabin is huge! The kitchen is great, It had everything we needed to cook meals there. The view is beautiful, having coffee on the front porch swing was great. The kids liked the treehouse in back too, though it is quite a steep hill to get to it the sunset view from up there is amazing. Beds and couches were comfortable as well. The only thing we would have liked was dressers in the bedrooms to unpack our clothes into. Otherwise it was just perfect! The owner was also very responsive when we had any questions.

5 STARS!!! Amazing House and Owners!

We had an amazing time in this cabin. My family and I were visiting during the winter snowstorm. Unfortunately, we were snowed in for an extra day. Not that we were complaining! Fortunately, we had an amazing place to stay and enjoy the snow!! The owner, Ian, was so helpful getting us out of the 17 inches of snow that was covering our cars and driveway! Thank you again for everything you did for us! We will definitely be back! AMAZING HOUSE, LOCATION, & OWNERS!

Great Property!

My buddies and I were looking for a place to stay while doing some mountain biking in the area. The cabin was super nice! Quiet area with very little, if any, traffic on the road. Only problem we had was that the listing is for 8 adults, but that is only if people share beds. There were actually a couple of the guys who shared a bed to have places to sleep, which was funny, but not desirable. I booked this and to accommodate my friends who also paid, I slept on a leather chair with my blanket out of my truck. Not the best sleeping arrangement, lol
