Had an amazing time! The cabin was clean and well stocked. Will definitely be staying again!!

We stayed May 30 -June 5, 2026This place is definitely quaint. Although we mainly just used it for sleeping, preparing some meals, & the occasional regroup. I did message the host prior to arriving, but after a week had not heard back so I contacted VRBO support, that made me feel a little uneasy... but all worked out.On cleanliness: when we walked in it smelled clean & fresh & looked clean. Some notices though: the windows were not clean. The outside areas of the cabin didn't look like it ever gets cleaned/even sprayed off. There were some cobwebs, & it some surfaces could use dusted. We did see when we moved the couches out a little that they must not get moved to be swept under. The kitchen supplies were OK. Not the greatest, but one would not expect top rate items for a rental cabin. It is not a super quiet place as you can hear the Mountain Parkway especially at night. There are 2 other places & 1 being built within sight and close, so it is not tucked away by itself. The road to get to it is rough & narrow, but we had a truck so no issues, but just for awareness. There are 38 steps to get to the door. Main floor: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom. Down 4 steps living room, up 13 steps main bedroom with shower & whirlpool tub. The beds were not comfortable, feels like the mattresses are very old & worn out.

This cabin was your basic cabin. I think that the expectation when staying here is that you are back to nature and probably out exploring it instead of hanging around the cabin. There is nothing fancy in this cabin but it definitely met our needs. There were several televisions with DISH service but we did not even turn them on.I must remind myself going forward to check for the things that are NOT listed because they are just as important as the things that ARE listed. We did not have wifi and at first was a little disappointed…not for long. Didn’t really need it. We had some cellular reception most of the time. The owner/host is not to blame for me not knowing. I, of course, did not read carefully. Wifi was not listed in the amenities. Again, make sure to look for what is NOT listed. (Not the first time I have done that. LOL)I am not sure that it is listed in the description but there are 38 steps to enter the cabin. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and feel that if you are accustomed to rustic conditions, this is a good value.

The stay was ok. Cabin has several areas of dust bunnies, had an off smell.
