This cabin was above and beyond my expectations. It was beautiful, clean, and located on the most peaceful piece of property. We enjoyed fishing in the lake, playing ping pong and corn hole, and had fun game nights with all the available board games. Sitting out by the fire pit and enjoying the serenity of the lake was my absolute favorite part. We will definitely be visiting again!

The property is as stated and the pictures do not lie. This is a beautiful house. It was perfect for a Bachelor weekend. It was far enough away from the city to chill with the guys/hiking/fishing, and close enough to the city nightlife. House was clean and comfortable. We wish we could have checked in earlier and that is the only downside.
5.0
This house met and even exceeded our expectations coming into it. Perfect spot for a group of 6-8 people looking for a place to hang, relax, enjoy the outdoors as well as rustic comforts of a cabin home with modern amenities. Would definitely come back to this location again!
5.0
The moment we pulled up to this Lakeside retreat and walked into the cabin our family was immediately relaxed (and impressed) and it felt like a vacation. All of us loved the kayaks, fishing poles, lake toys, and firepit. That location was super convenient to great hikes in the Pisgah Forest, and also very close to breweries, restaurants, and shopping. We will definitely book this place again!

Beautiful location right on the lake. Close to both Asheville and Dupont Park. Cabin is very cozy and beds very comfortable. Views from the back porch are wonderful.

Beautiful log home on a cute little lake. We loved our stay here. The older boys loved the kayaks! The rooms were wonderful and clean. The bedroom to the right upstairs is not very comfy and some of the linens you can see where not washed. The house was clean for the most part though. Beautiful view on the back porch of the lake:) We would stay here again if we were in the area and do recommend it. Thank you!

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed here with 5 children (two 2yo, 4yo, 6&7yo) and a winter storm knocked out the power overnight so we lost heat and water. There was no backup generator. Further, the storm had downed power lines across the only road out (we had to off-road to escape) and there were houses reported on fire in the area. In short, it was unsafe to stay our last full day and night so we left around 12:30pm. We had contacted Turnkey at 10am with no response. They refused to refund us, first stating that no unused nights are refundable and then stating it was non refundable because we didn't stay long enough for them to respond (gaslighting at its finest). HORRIBLE. Would never stay with Turnkey.

Cabin and property was just as described and very clean upon check in. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and eating. The lake was nice and great for enjoying the outdoors, especially when we sat out around the fire pit. It's nice and quiet around there. Grocery store, restaurants, and other places were close by. We really enjoyed our stay!

The house and setting is beautiful and exactly what I was looking for to spend a few days with my family. The house appears clean when you first walk in however there were dirty dishes in the cabinets and dirt on the floor. There was an odor in one of the bedrooms. Empty ice machine and the machine doesn't work. Trash under the beds and some left items laying around such as a necklace and hair ties. Doesn't seem that housekeeping does a great job other than linens. Owners need to be aware of these things. 2 trash bags all that is supplied in the kitchen, so bring your own.

The home is modern with a lot of cooking supplies included. My group loved using all the amenties:
Kayaks on the pond (Great both day and nighttime)
Firepit
Ping Pong table
Upper deck to enjoy the view
Kitchen for cooking, etc
All three bedrooms are cozy and the additional sleeping beds in the living room were said to be excellent.
The only issue was the pullout sofa sheets were dirty (not washed from previous party)
Bring your own firepit wood and supplies and don't expect to go swimming in the pond (very murky).
Lots of privacy and land with great views of the pond.

This is a beautifully kept home with all the amenities. They had plenty of extra blankets and pillows for us. It was a quiet and peaceful the whole time we were there. The lake is not suitable for swimming but it’s great for kayaking and seeing wildlife (cranes, geese, ducks, birds, etc). We loved having our morning coffee on the deck. Would definitely recommend this home.

It was great! Full of fun, great location, mostly clean. Our only complaints: the shower floors were dirty, and the oven was dirty and smoke filled the room whenever we used it. There is foil stuck to the bottom and smoked on pre-heat. Otherwise it was great!

We had an awesome time at this property! Very comfortable met the needs of the 6 adults on the trip. The views are great, especially if you kayak to the middle of the pond and look back towards the house!
If we could have a complaint, it would be that the downstairs toilet gave a few issues, not wanting to flush properly. Other that, we give this property an absolute 10 out of 10!
