We completely enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It felt cute, cozy and tucked away from the world.
The fireplace was wonderful.
It had everything a couple would want for a quiet weekend away.
Quick responses to any questions the entire time - from booking thru our stay.
We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect little getaway with the family. Most everything you need for your getaway is provided (paper towels, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, plenty of towels, etc.). Perfect for staying in and relaxing or going out for a hike, it really is a versatile stay. 10 out of 10 would book again and have had friends/family reach out for the link to book themselves.

The cabin is so cute and stocked well with everything you need. The cabin is secluded so you can sit outside and enjoy the view in privacy. The owners are very quick to respond to questions and are very pleasant ideal with. They even welcome you with fresh eggs from the farm for your stay. This is one I would book again.

What a wonderful long weekend in this quaint little cabin. If you’re looking for luxury, five star amenities this won’t be the place for you. If you’re looking for a quiet, clean, stay in the country that’s close to Asheville, Black Mountain, and surrounding hiking trails this is a perfect place. The cabin has everything you need for a romantic long weekend. The bed was surprisingly comfortable, the cabin had everything you needed for a pleasant trip. The hot tub was clean and in good working order. We didn’t do any cooking but it had a full oven and microwave. We would definitely stay here again if in the area. A sweet little find.

Overall we had a good experience! Some of the dishes from the shelf were dirty when we wanted to use them, a glass had dried milk and a spatula had egg. I felt I had to wash the dishes before using. We did not have much wood upon arrival and no matches to start the fire. The location to downtown was great!

We spent our mini honeymoon at this cabin recently! I cannot say enough good things about this place. The cabin is secluded and small but perfect. It has everything you need. A container of fresh eggs were left for us when we arrived. We did some hiking around then property, walked down to the little farm almost every morning and went to places around ashvielle every day which is only 15-20 min drive. The hot tub was a plus and very clean, dont forget to take advantage of the outdoor fire pit for those chilly nights. Perfect place if you need to take your pet with you, plenty of room for a large kennel, but he ended up going everywhere with us. The only thing is you will need to take flashlights. It is pitch black at night and there are bears around, especially if you need to take your pet to use the bathroom before bed. We saw a momma bear and her 3 cubs several times, so be alert and aware when walking and hiking around the property. Already have reccomended this place to several friends. Cant wait to stay here again.

We enjoyed this cabin and would recommend this to others if you enjoy the great outdoors! The bed was comfy, the cabin had everything we needed, there’s hiking trails on the property, and we absolutely loved saying hello to the farm animals. We saw some bears on the property, so follow the cabin rules and recommendations of being aware and responsible!

We loved our stay in this simple and cozy cabin! The property is beautiful and we loved the walking trails located on the land. My only suggestions/cons to the cabin is that the bed is very small and uncomfortable for 2 people and there is a lack of outdoor lighting. This place would be PERFECT if they found a way to squeeze in a queen sized bed instead of the full and add some more lighting outside, specifically around the hot tub. It’s very dark if you want to enjoy the hot tub at night. Otherwise, a great stay! The owners were easy to communicate with when needed.

This was such a cute place to stay. So close to everything, yet far enough away. Just perfect! After driving way back off the beaten path, we arrived to this magical little cabin. So peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed a fire while relaxing after eating our steaks we cooked on the gas grill. We finished our evenings with a relaxing soak in the well maintained hot tub. We especially loved the fresh eggs left for us by the owners in which came from the little farm down the road. Would definitely recommend!

Upon arrival, the air-conditioner and lights were on. Very inviting. They had everything we needed for our 4 nights stay including extra towels, pillows, blankets, mini fridge, drinking glasses, dishes etc. Absolutely, perfect!
We are from out of state and our experience campers. Our first morning during breakfast, a Black Bear was less than 20 foot from the back screen door. Our dog, made us aware of his presence. Thankfully, we did not leave anything in our truck. No food, air fresheners scents etc., however the Bear had knock out a tail light looking in the back. That evening, coming up the drive, we saw another Bear in the yard of the lodge. The Bear crossed the drive and into the woods beside our cabin. We had no plans of cooking out and we followed the Beware of Bears sign posted in our Cabin but I must say, we never expected to see one that close. Due to visibility, we decided not to use the Hot Tub. The Hot tub is next to the cabin and surrounded by the woods. The property care taker contacted us the first day regarding someone stopping by for a couple minutes to look at the outside and I did let her know of the Bear. She stated to me in a text, "Life in the Mountains". So true!

The cabin was a perfect little getaway spot for the 2 of us and our dog. There is a farm with a llama, goats, and chickens! The property is well maintained and has great little quick hiking trails throughout. Our cabin was in the back of the property and it felt secluded, even though there are multiple other cabins there. The grill was perfect to make some steaks on the porch and enjoy nature, and the hot tub was a perfect way to end the night. Great bed too! Everything was perfect. We did see a gigantic spider on the shower curtain, but we are in a cabin in the woods after all, so it was to be expected. We will definitely stay here again!

I took my girlfriend to Asheville for her birthday, and this place did not disappoint for our stay. It was amazing! Nestled back into the countryside, quiet and peaceful. Though the rain kept us from visiting the animals, the owners made sure we had some fresh farm eggs for breakfast. Only about 20-25 min from anything in downtown which made getting to whatever activity we had planned very easy. If youre looking for some peace and quiet for a few days, this is definitely the place to stay!

Would absolutely stay here again. Awesome little cabin back in the woods of the property. Quiet and peaceful. Cool trails on the property as well to hike around on. Pearson and Honey are also neat to hang out with.
