Beautiful, quiet home.

Great log home in quiet setting. Nice big fenced backyard with fire pit and barbecue. Big master bedroom and kitchen with all the accessories. There was a nice private stream with sliding rock and swimming hole that the grandchildren and their dog loved. Close to all the hiking and biking trails. Would definitely return.

Great Father's Day Weekend!!

This house was the perfect size and in a great location for my husband, my 2 adult sons, and me. We were able to visit several waterfalls in the area and still have time in the afternoon to enjoy the creek and small waterfall behind the house. Even though it was on a road with other houses, we felt very secluded. Loved the fenced backyard for our dachshunds and American Bulldog. Being able to hear the creek while sitting in the backyard was very soothing. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic Stay

We came to the area on a road trip from Ontario, Canada to see The Pretty Place and do some hiking. This is a great location for all of that. Everything is relatively close by. You can sit on the deck in the early morning and early evening and watch the deer that came out everyday. We will definitely consider this place again and would highly recommend to anyone

Very convenient great fenced yard

The house was very convenient to Dupont for hiking and mountain biking. Having the fenced in yard was great for our dogs and for us, as we didn't need to keep them on a leash when relaxing in the evenings on the back patio. The property also had a pretty stream with a small waterfall that were easy to walk to and the sound of the running water added a nice ambience when sitting outside.

Private mountain retreat

We thoroughly enoyed our stay at Amos Acres. We ate all our meals in the sun room overlooking the woods and listening to the babbling creek. The fenced yard was a bonus for our older dogs. Some deer visited us in the front yard to munch on the corn provided. Amos acres is in close to both Dupont and Pisgah where we love to hike.

Private and peaceful

This was our second stay here, and once again it was the peaceful break much needed. It’s wonderful to find a place with pets welcome and the fenced in backyard is great. The kids loved exploring the stream in the back,and watching the wildlife. One morning we even had a visit from a black bear! The area is so nice and quiet,and the local people you meet are very friendly. Anything you need,or might want to do isn’t too far away in any direction. Once again I left desperately wishing I could move to the area.

Beautiful Getaway! Highly recommend!

Check-in instructions were clear, check-in was super easy, directions were great. Host even listed places nearby that we might find of interest. The cabin was clean and welcoming when we walked in. The fireplace was super easy to use, press a button and it's on. Very nice. Loved the sunroom / dining room, great fenced in backyard. Good for people with even small dogs. Had all the pans Skillets utensils and spices that were needed. If you want Mayo, butter, mayonnaise, creamer or ketchup. Things like that, then you'll need to take them. But that's expected. Even had a Keurig coffee maker which we had hoped they would have. We also loved the fact that they support Recycling and have a special bin for that outside. We had not seen that a lot in other rentals. But we appreciate it and took advantage of that. Would definitely book again, and would recommend.

Autumn Adventure

A fantastic getaway, this property is one of our favorites! This was our third trip to this idyllic cabin in the woods. It is delightfully peaceful here. We enjoyed the proximity to beautiful hiking trails, the town of Brevard, and idled one day away just sitting by the fireplace and reading, with afternoon tea by the waterfall on the property. The well outfitted kitchen makes it easy to make meals, but we did enjoy the nearby Creekside restaurant as well. Our dogs love the spacious, fenced backyard, which is bigger than what they have at home! We can’t wait to come back!

Grateful dog owners

We appreciated the safe zone for our dog. Well equipped, well located, comfortable. Most have given a 5 for cleanliness; I could not. The gas stove in the kitchen is in need of service. The floor mats and lap blankets were not clean upon our arrival. There is a nice W/D with supplies and we willingly washed the linens. That saved my overall cleanliness rating in my review.

Perfect Property

The cabin is cozy and comfortable. The property is peaceful and private. We liked watching the deer, turkeys and squirrels come up in the front yard to feed. We enjoyed wading in the stream during the day and sitting around the fire pit at night. We love this area. Shopping in Brevard is always fun and there's so much to see with so many hikes and falls to visit. The Fred Symmes Chapel is absolutely gorgeous and only 20 minutes away. We love the area and loved this property! We plan to be book this again on our annual summer meet up with our family.

About the host

Hosted by sharon bode

I spent many summers at camp in western NC as a child. We have vacationed in this area nearly every year for the last 20 years. We love the outdoors, excellent hiking, kayaking and other activities that are so available here.

Why they chose this property

We love the proximity to Dupont State Forest and Caesers'Head and the great hiking opportunities in both spots. The complete privacy of our location, opportunity to view wildlife in the front yard and the incredible choices of activities nearby made this a 'must have' for us!

What makes this property unique

The cabin is fully equipped so no worries about being able to prepare great meals away from home. The stream, waterfall and wading pool provide on-sight entertainment. Feed the deer and enjoy a touch of nature right in the front yard. The fenced yard keeps the kids and pets safe and secure. Listen to the sound of the waterfall as you fall asleep. Wifi, satellite and DVD keep us in touch with our other lives if we choose.
