Great cabin in the mountains!

We really enjoyed our short stay at this cabin. It was just what we were looking for. The view was amazing and the interior was cute and cozy. The drive up the mountain was a little scarier than we realized it would be but we quickly got used to it. It was a great spot to stay while exploring the area.

Nice property

Very nice property with great views. Location is easy to get to, but recommend a vehicle that isn't low to the ground, it may scrape in some spots on the way up the gravel road. Would definitely stay again.

Great view and property

This was our second time staying at this house. Great property and very clean. Appreciate that no air fresheners or unnecessary fragrances are present. We had a minor issue with the WiFi but the host was very accommodating and quickly responded. Will definitely stay here again if we are in this area.

Mountain Paradise

Beautiful cabin home in the mountains. We came to parents weekend for WCU and this house was about 20 min away but still easy to get to downtown Dillsboro or Sylva. We truly enjoyed the stocked kitchen for family dinners and the fire pit for s’mores and lots of laughs. Getting to the cabin and checking in was super easy and any questions I had were answered very quickly. This was definitely a little piece of heaven.

About the host

Hosted by Brad and Brandy Middleton

Host profile image
We are just your normal couple from Charleston, SC that LOVE the mountains! Some of our interests are exploring, antique shopping, breweries, getting in and on the water, hiking, and live music. We have 3 kids, a freshman at C of C and 2 seniors in High School.

Why they chose this property

We always enjoyed trips to the NC Mountains with our kids in the Summer to get away from the heat of Charleston, SC. Hiking, shopping, breweries and anything having to do with getting on or in the water are some of our favorite things to do. We started to look for a small cabin in 2020 and came across this one and fell in love. Brandy decorated the cabin down to each little detail to make it feel like our home and yours. The location is perfect. It's located about 5 hours away from us, is "secluded" but so close to everything we love about the mountains. Also, Brad is a Realtor and the internet and connectivity is huge. When we drove up to the house and saw that we both had 4 bars of Verizon service which made it that much better to be able to work while away. We hope that you will fall in love as we did, come stay at LBC and see for yourself!

What makes this property unique

Privacy. Location. Stocked home like it was your own. Attractions nearby. Breweries and restaurants close. Great cell service and internet for working while on the road. Feeling of warmth. Shopping. Ease of finding and getting to the house.
