Stunning Mountain View

Our Annual Girls Trip was perfect with our stay at this lovely cabin. Stunning views from multiple porches. It had everything we needed for a long weekend and more! Very close to the Blueridge Parkway for hiking and exploring the mountains. Cheryl was available for any questions we had and was very responsive. We would absolutely return if we are back in the area.

Beautiful homey restful stay with gorgeous view!

We loved all the cozy touches in this cabin. There is a deck and a screened porch and the view is so pretty. We drove the Blue Ridge Parkway and found the cabin right below it. We’ve stayed at several “view” cabins in the area and this was the easiest access we’ve experienced.

Perfect

The cabin is clean and beautiful! It had everything we needed and more. The view of the mountains is spectacular! We especially enjoyed the views while roasting marshmallows around the fire pit. The location was right where we wanted to be. Easy access to nearby towns and the parkway. It was really perfect!

Perfect cozy cabin

This was the perfect spot for an after Christmas getaway. The cabin was perched on a mountaintop with beautiful views and had everything inside, cozy bedrooms, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and lots of games. We loved it!

Incredible cabin!

There were 3 of us that stayed here for a long girlfriend’s weekend, and this cabin was the loveliest cabin I have ever rented! Everything was provided and the furnishings were high end. The back porch and views were stunning! The cabin is remote, and driving up the gravel road in the dark takes concentration. The fire pit was fun! The 3rd bedroom and bath was downstairs, which was a little tough on our 70-year old bodies. But younger renters would have no problems going up and down. We want to rent again. It was an incredibly peaceful girls getaway!

Beautiful home

We were a group of five senior adults riding our motorcycles. Two couples and a single so the three bedrooms and three bathrooms worked perfectly. Accommodations were great our only issue was the gravel on the hilly driveway. Not Good for Bikers.

Beautiful views

We had a great stay at this cabin. The location. is picturesque with the stunning views, the surrounding area and the drive up to the cabin is beautiful. We’ve stayed at many cabins throughout the years in GA, SC, TN and NC and we love the Waynesville area. The kitchen is well equipped and the game room has lots of board games along with the pool table. The back yard is relatively steep, so just be aware if you bring pets it’s not an area easily accessible to have them roam in the back yard. We walked ours along the road and they were just fine. The phone service worked fine and we had ATT and TMobile - we had less bars in the game room but it worked. There is basic TV service, but be aware it’s limited. There was no local channel coverage so if you’re a football fan, you won’t be able to watch games unless you stream via your laptop with a streaming site and a HDMI cable connected to TV using your phone’s Hot Spot. Hot water worked perfect and we were a party of six. The drive up to the cabin is quite easy. Communication with owner/property manager was great. Great stay overall.

Beautiful home with amazing views

This lovely log home was the perfect setting for a weeklong mountain vacation with my family! We had all the comforts of home, including comfortable beds, and a well-stocked kitchen. I loved all the different spaces where we could choose to gather or enjoy some alone time. The location is quiet and private, yet convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway, as well as grocery stores and shopping in Waynesville or Sylva. But my favorite feature of this home is the gorgeous mountain view! To experience the beauty of the sunlight throwing color on the mountains and drifting clouds is pure peace.
