Chestnut Log Cabin
We enjoyed staying there so much. The cool Morning air and hot sunrise on the porch made for delightful coffee sipping each morning. The full kitchen was appreciated as we prefer to cook our own fancy meals while traveling. They hot tub was relaxing and private. The seating spaces were abundant. The period decor was like stepping back into a restful reprieve. We read many of the books and could see ourselves playing the games and puzzles too. The nearby trails and convenient town were perfect for easy access.

Great location for hiking
Nice place, spacious & has many amenities, incl hot tub & firepit. Close to downtown and very close to entry to (one of) the entry to Appalachian Trail for hiking. 3 suggestions to make it perfect - 1) better mattress for master bedroom, 2) better internet (might be limited by what's available), 3) provide a keurig/nespresso or basic coffee/tea service.

Perfect AT homebase
We did a guys trip to hike the AT for a few days. This place was perfect. About 50 yards from the entrance, we jumped on and hiked about 15 miles (pretty steep and exhausting section). At night, we walked in to town and listened to live music at Big Pillow. House was perfect for us with a bed, two bunks and a few futons. Outdoors had a fire pit and a hot tub which were great. House had everything you need and perfect location. Manager was really communicative. Would definitely stay again!

Great Host and Very Responsive
Melanie was very responsive to any concerns that we had and addressed any problems quickly. When there some initial issues, Melanie made sure that they were resolved very quickly. There was a power outage for most of the time that we were there, but Melanie cannot be held responsible for the weather/Duke Power. All around, we had a good time, and we would recommend to anyone wishing to stay in Hot Springs.

Great location!
We were coming into town with side-by-side’s and some places frown upon that. She was very welcoming and even let us know the best places to park local breweries and places to grab coffee in the morning out of five stars. She deserves a 10. Thanks for everything we all said that we would be back!!!!

Birthday weekend
The cabin is very charming with lots of character. Close enough to walk into town which we really enjoyed, the hot tub was wonderful and we also enjoyed the rocking chairs on the front porch. It's an old cabin with lots of charm and warmth, it eminded me of visiting Grandma's house. You could feel the love that used to live there. Melanie was a wonderful host and easy to communicate with.

perfect mountain hideaway
The property was perfect. The host called us the night before and gave tips on the town. We got in later than expected and there were lights and the heat on for us which was great after a long day of driving. It was a short walk to the town but keep in mind its a small town so things do close down a little earlier. We would book again for sure.

perfect for our weekend trip
We had a quick two night stay at the log cabin. It fit four adults and two kids comfortably. The kids loved the bunk beds. The owner was easy to get a hold of and attentive to anything we needed. Even though we weren't there for hiking, it was a nice location right on the trail. Walking into town was also easy and quick. The hot tub was nice .

Lovely Cabin in a Small Town!
My family had a lovely time visiting this property! It is steps away from the main street in Hot Springs, everything was walkable. We loved hiking right outside the front door. The town as a great microbrewery and don't forget to do a hot spring soak. The cabin was charming and comfortable. Melanie the owner was so helpful and kind. I would absolutely stay here again!

Charming
This is only our second experience with renting a property for vacation through VRBO. This was a very good experience and it builds my trust in working with a premier host. Melanie checked in on us before we arrived to the property and extended her availability should we need her for anything. We enjoyed the jacuzzi, the fire pit and the big front porch on this property. We ate breakfast and had coffee on the porch each morning while enjoying the breezy mountain air and the beautiful views. It was a very close walk downtown as the listing noted. The town is so cute and we enjoyed the small town feel for sure.
