Felt right at Home!
This lovely home is very comfortable and clean. Our host was helpful in suggesting area restaurants, attractions and even a local spa/salon. Ladies, Amber at Roots massage is Amazing! The home is close to grocery, friendly neighboring towns, parks and dog parks. We frequented the Silo restaurant, Bold Rock Cider and Pisgah National Forest. Explored many waterfalls, biking areas, historic walking tours and Skytop Apple Orchard. The nearly 2 months flew by. The area has much to offer, we had so much fun!!! Thanks again to our Wonderful Hosts

The perfect getaway!
The property was in a nice quiet area, while still having access to all necessary places. We did a ton of things around Horseshoe/Asheville area. Easy to get around. The house was nice and clean and stocked with everything needed to feel comfortable. I love that they provide almost all necessary items, kitchen is fully stocked, and backups to everything (pillows, blankets, trash bags, detergent, etc). The view of the mountains was always a nice perk when we looked out the window. Plenty of space for our family. We had such a pleasant experience, we would definitely stay again!

Great place! Enjoyed the view and gas fire pit with my morning coffee. House was very clean and had all we needed to chase waterfalls, cook and relax. Bed was firmer than I like but that’s a personal preference. Good location near Hendersonville and Brevard. Communications with owners was great. They are very responsive.

This house was very nice. The view out back was beautiful and you didn’t have to drive far off the main road to access it. It was very nice that it is on one level with not a single stair if you are traveling with anyone that cannot go upstairs easily. Beds were extremely comfortable and everything looked brand new inside.

Best Place Ever
This cabin is wonderful for just so many reasons. It is exactly as pictured. It was very clean when we arrived for a month stay. These owners have thought of including everything you need. I actually could have left a couple of heavy bags home. We loved sitting out on the back patio having coffee and enjoying the long range mountain view which made for beautiful sunsets. The main road is about 2 minutes away and all paved, easy access. We ate out every night in Hendersonville, Brevard and Mills River. It is a very convenient location. If you are thinking of staying in this area, consider this cabin. Ron and Kathy respond immediately to any questions or concerns. I hope to stay here again if we come back to this area.
