About this property

Rustic cabin at Dupont Forest

Need a break from the hustle and bustle? Come stay at the "Pretty Nice Place" for a true disconnect. Immerse yourself in nature and spend your days exploring the nearby waterfalls and trails in DuPont State Forest or Caesars Head State Park.
This recently-improved cabin is smack dab in the middle of a multitude of recreational opportunities.
Situated off a quiet road, nestled in rhododendrons, you'll be sure to enjoy sitting around the streamside firepit or grilling on the patio. (1BD/1BA)
The space
The cabin is in a rural, wooded setting with streamside firepit at the rear and a sunny side patio with charcoal grill and picnic table. It has central heating/cooling.
The living area spans the front of this cozy bungalow and has a sitting/reading area at one end and the entertainment area at the other end.
Pine floors throughout for a rustic feel.
The bedroom is at the back of the cabin where you can hear the stream trickling when the windows are open. Both blackout curtains and blinds are on the windows for a completely restful/undisturbed sleep. The bed is a queen-sized bed. Please note that ALL the bed linens are changed after each guest...no reusing comforters here!
Bathroom with 5' shower, small sink, commode is adjacent to the bedroom.
The kitchen has all the essential dishes/utensils and a full-size refrigerator and oven/range. The coffee maker is a drip-style/programmable. One sample coffee starter will be in the cabin--please bring your favorite creamer, sugar, and additional coffee supplies.
The dining area is at the back of the cabin off of the kitchen (one step down) and has an exterior door to the side patio. The washer and dryer are also housed in this space on the other side of the doorway to the kitchen.

Great location, excellent home.

This was the best equipped home we have stayed in. It's also located close to many NC and SC state parks. Local restaurants are friendly, fun and serve good food. Be sure to sit by the firepit in the early evening and listen to the birds sing...wonderful and peaceful. A quiet country setting.

Great little place!

Very nice place, about 25 minutes from Brevard which has some nice restaurants (Square Root and Quixote were great), and another 15 or 20 minutes to some nice hikes in Pigsah Forest. Great backyard with small fire pit. We saw a deer and a raccoon in the back when we arrived. The place was very clean, bed was comfortable, everything worked as advertised.

Peaceful

Hoping to stay here again in the near future. A great place for two people. Very well stocked for our needs they have most everything. Although if you are planning to grill bring your grill utensils. It was very clean. We enjoyed the close proximity to Pretty Place Chapel.

Fall in the mountains

We had a great stay. Clean, comfortable, and adequately stocked. We had chosen the location based on the proximity to Pretty Place Chapel. Unfortunately, Pretty Place was closed to the public almost our entire stay so lesson learned for other travelers to check ahead as it might not be open. The cabin was great and we were able to see plenty of other beautiful local sites. Thank you.

Cozy, Cute, Perfect

My boyfriend and I only got to spend a couple nights here but would have absolutely loved to stay longer (boo work and responsibilities 🙄). It is close to many great hiking trails, which is what we wanted. While it is fairly remote, meaning cell service was terrible for us, the cabin had great WiFi, and all of the amenities you would need. Beyond the practical elements the feeling of this cabin was perfect -- the warm lighting and colors everywhere, the secluded fire pit next to a gentle stream, the wooden floors, the cute lanterns in the dining room, the comfy furniture, it all felt like a good hug. If you are looking for somewhere to relax and get away from the chaos of life, stay here. It was perfect.

Beautiful cottage in a great location

We rent often in the Brevard/Cedar Mountain area to hike the DuPont forest, play golf, and dine at the Cedar Mountain Café. We love this area, and if you’re a couple, or two people, this is the perfect location. It’s only a couple of miles off of the main road, and the cabin is quaint and well-kept. The cabin is well stocked, and the beautiful fire pit seating area (Stocked with seasoned wood), is a welcome addition after hiking all day. The cabin is cozy, and at the same time has all the amenities that one needs including the Internet and a flatscreen TV anytime. Lastly, when we were looking at this property, we had several questions and the owner got back to us within minutes, very responsive. We plan on renting this cabin again when we travel to this area as a couple.

The location was great for us…near the hiking we wanted to do and close to Pretty Place. It’s a cute little place! The only thing that could use improving is the musty smell.

Quaint cottage

We enjoyed our stay in the little cottage in Cedar Mountain. The backyard and fire pit are so peaceful and the neighborhood is quiet. We enjoyed being in the middle of the DuPont forest and close to so many great hiking areas. Cedar Mountain itself is a quaint little place with a couple of really neat restaurants (as long as you get there before 8! 😊) The accommodations are simple, bed is comfortable, and all was clean. Great experience in the great outdoors!
