We really enjoyed our stay at the Hilltop Log Cabin, a place to feel secluded, but conveniently located near civilization. The cabin is not far from the NC Arboretum, the starting point for the Shut In trail race. The Glenns made us feel so welcome and we hope to return in the future.

Ms Gay famous homemade biscuits were perfect. Great place to get away and destress. Enjoyed the wildlife. Lots to do within 30 miles made it easy to enjoy lots of mountain town. Of course, hiking everywhere. Great wifi. Comfy bed. Very clean. Loved the screened porch. Nice fire inside and outdoor fire pit.

What a wonderful hilltop cabin in the woods! It was a beautiful, peaceful place to be with our small family and relax after a busy day of sightseeing. We spent 4 days and nights with activities planned for each day. When we returned late each afternoon exhausted, we had fun exploring the woods and stream, feeding the rainbow trout, enjoying the fire pit, relaxing in the cabin, listening to the jukebox, and cooking our dinners each night which recharged our batteries for the next day. The cabin was convenient for all of the activities we had planned. We spent one day at the Biltmore, another day whitewater rafting on the French Broad River, and another day hiking to see waterfalls. The owners were gracious and checked on us several times. They had fresh, delicious, homemade, rolls made by the owner, waiting for us when we arrived. What a welcome! For our last day, we followed the owners' recommendations to visit one of their favorite waterfalls at DuPont State National Forest. We hiked over 4 miles and saw several beautiful waterfalls along the way. We drove back to the cabin by way of the Blue Ridge Parkway and stopped to see some of the amazing Blue Ridge Mountains. What a wonderful get a away! Thank you Glenn Acres!

Beautiful get away that is secluded. The fresh biscuits were fantastic. Would highly recommend if your looking for a cozy location off the beaten path. Plus Asheville is close by.

I stayed for the weekend with my daughter and niece and we enjoyed our time here.
I am very directionally challenged so I had GPS going and I was referencing the directions given to us by the owner which included things/signs to look for. When we arrived at a dead end I assumed we weren’t in the right place. We turned around and drove around for some time then reentered the address in the GPS. We ended up right back at the same dead end. GPS appears to be sending you down the wrong road/driveway when in fact it’s the road/driveway the cabin is on. The road/driveway is between 10:00 and 11:00 when approaching the dead end. There are mailboxes on the right hand side of the road/driveway. Just a few car links down the driveway is the creek that you have to cross so when you arrive at this dead end you are in the right spot.
Some reviews referenced needing a 4 wheel drive for the road up to the cabin but I was driving a mid size rear wheel drive car and had no trouble. I assume a 4 wheel drive would only be necessary if there was snow on the ground.

Had a great visit. Didn’t realize you needed 4x4 vehicle to get there, but it made it fun. The whole experience was good expect for the ants in the Queen bed upstairs.

Small Family Reunion
We rented the cabin from Friday-Sunday as it was in an excellent location to pick up one child from sleep away camp on Friday and drop the other off on Sunday. We met my parents in Asheville and it was the perfect size and layout for our party. The cabin was clean and exactly as advertised; location gave us a lot of privacy and quiet, while only being a short drive to Asheville. Upon leaving, we all agreed that we would love to stay here again next year.

Much needed place
Mr. Larry helped us as we arrived after dark, which left us an adventure for us! The cabin was PERFECTION! Mrs. Gaye's fresh made biscuits were a pleasant surprise for to weary souls! Arrived strangers and left as friends! We also left our red mini Keurig as it matched the kitchen appliances and know we will most certainly be back! Thank you Hilltop Cabin for being exactly what we needed!

Weekend in the Mountains
We had a great stay at the Hilltop Log Cabin. My wife, 2 teenage sons, and our puppy stayed for two nights to visit the Asheville area. It was just what we expected: quiet, comfortable, and relaxing. For a log cabin, the place was extremely clean. Between our trips to downtown Asheville (takes just under 30 minutes), we enjoyed roasting marshmallows by the fire pit, walking the large property, and getting a sound sleep in the firm but comfortable beds. We had only one question after we arrived, and the owner got back to us within the hour using the VRBO app. We were extremely satisfied with our stay. One thing for first timers to note about this house is that it is a cabin so you can pretty much hear everything that goes on in the house. In other words, it is difficult to sleep unless everyone goes to bed at the same time. That can be tricky with teenagers!

Peaceful mountain get away
Great place to relax and get away. Surrounded by woods and a babbeling brook. Sleep with the windows cracked open to listen to the water.
Spent morning on the porch with coffee.
Nicest owners.

We loved our weekend, the cabin was just perfect! We enjoyed sitting on the porch, hanging out in the jukebox room and the fire pit. We were celebrating a birthday with this surprise trip to Asheville & Biltmore, the cabin was icing on the cake!!

Very private!
This property definitely feels like you're in a cabin in the woods compared to many others. It's literally surrounded by trees and very private. The drive in definitely is a little scary the first time (especially in the rain or dark) but helps it feel so private. Since two of the bedrooms are not completely closed off from the rest of the house, it can be a little loud if anyone gets up at night but the rooms were comfortable!

Weekend Family Getaway
First and foremost, Denise and her father were very gracious and responsive hosts. We had a problem with the cabin heating when we arrived and they went the extra mile to address it. My parents stayed down the road in Black Bear Lodge (they loved it!) and the proximity and nature surrounding the cabins allowed us to have a great experience while social distancing.
The cabin is rustic (their other cabins, including Black Bear Lodge, are a bit more modern) and without central heating, some rooms are colder than others at night. The space was perfect for a family of five.

I'd give it a 1 star just so I knew I could rent it again when I wanted too and it not be booked.
Owners are wonderful. House and property is outstanding. If you found this listing there is no reason to keep looking

Loved it!
This was our 4th time on the property. Usually my boyfriend and I stay at the Black Bear Lodge (which we love), but I rented the Hilltop Cabin and invited friends to surprise home for his birthday. Everybody loved the place and we took advantage of the awesome Jukebox. The master bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone. Thank you so much for hosting us.

Great house and great location
We loved the house and the location (near the blue ridge highway). It's perfect for a family of 4. The kids loved the juke box and we loved the really comfortable bed (my husband has back problems, so this was a bonus). The only thing mentioning is that you are surrounded by lot's of trees, so not the best views of the mountains, but for this price and location I would still recommend booking! Also communication with the owners was perfect and we loved the bread they made for us. So sweet!!!!
