The creek was beautiful & the water was so clear. That was really the only thing that made us decide to stay. We will not be staying in this place again on our next trip. Photos are of the creek because the cabin was nothing special & our discovery on the 1st night is definitely not "family friendly".

Serenity

The cute cabin was the perfect size for me and my husband. The kitchen is very well equipped and had everything that we needed. The queen-sized bed was very comfortable and we slept like babies. In the bathroom, there is a heater/vent which was fabulous when showering on chilly evenings! The owner provided extra heaters which came in handy as the temps got into the 30's in the evenings. The main reason I rented this cabin was for the creek out back and it didn't disappoint. It was so very relaxing sitting out on the deck listening to the water run over the rocks. I wish I was still sitting there! The town of Candler is a great little city. If you like chicken, go to Rocky Hot Chicken Shack - the food is delicious! If you are a fan of Mexican food, try El Chalapa - excellent tacos. There are also a ton of fast food restaurants if that is your thing. The location of the cabin is perfect for visiting Asheville or the Blue Ridge Parkway. There are lots of waterfalls about 45 minutes away.I highly recommend this home and want to go back as soon as I can!

A quiet place to relax

We had a great time staying in this cozy house nestled in the woods beside the creek. We enjoyed hearing the rippling creek while relaxing in the rocking chairs and breathing in the fresh mountain air. This place was just perfect for our couples getaway.

Great little spot for two

Cute little cabin, comfortable, very cool inside with all the AC units. Really enjoyed the private hot tub and the sound of the creek. Good spot, close to our hot air balloon ride, lots of beautiful waterfalls on the way up, plenty of scenic drives & hiking, close to all the things in Asheville. We had a great time!

Great stay with only one drawback.

The property was mostly great. It's a beautiful location and is as described in the listing. The only drawback and the reason I'm giving 4 stars is that the mattress was kind of sunken in in the middle and really needs to be replaced. Everything else was great.

Great little cabin

The cabin is very cozy and is right on a stream. Back portion of home sand patio is very private. Nice hot tub. The fire pit is in the front yard which is not very private, wish it was at the back of property. This is a semi private rental as you are on a road. Let the goat know of small items that would make stay more enjoyable but nothing that would ruin a stay or make us not rent here again. Very responsive host.

Had a great weekend getaway

This cottage is in a great location if your looking for a place to stay in the Pisgah area. Gas and groceries are close by, and the drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway is an awesome one. The cottage was clean, and easy to find. I received immediate answers to my questions. It has a great back deck to relax on, with a creek directly off of it. It was nice to sit in a hot tub which looks off the deck, into the forest!

NOT a summer rental.

Sometimes you find out the hard way. This would be the perfect place to stay in the fall or winter. But it is impossible during the summer. That is unless you don't mind sleeping in an 80 degree room. This one bedroom cabin has a single window AC unit in the dining room. The unit is maybe a 5000 BTU unit intended for a single room up to 150 sq. ft. Which is all well and good if you want to sleep in the dining room. It does very little for cooling the bedroom. There is a box fan provided as well. After trying multiple way to get air flowing into the rest of the house, I tried everything from placing a chair on top of the small table in the kitchen, next to the AC unit with the box fan in the chair to move air with no luck. It was so uncomfortable that the only way to get relief was to spend the night in the truck in the driveway. At least there was AC in the truck. We didn't use the hot tub for fear that it was already unbearable in the house and we did not want to further the discomfort. Very disappointed. I am not one to leave a bad review as I am a realtor who has managed hundreds of vacation rentals along the coast over the last 13 years and I understand sometimes things happen. But, in this case a second AC in the bedroom would be a $200 investment in a nearly $200 per night unit that would make a world of difference. It's done now, the money is spent and the milestone birthday we were celebrating has come and gone. If your vehicle AC works, you should be ok like we were.

Perfect setting on the creek

This cabin had all the features that we were looking for… listening to the creek out back with access from the deck is just like heaven. It also had a great hot tub outside and was a little cabin in the woods with a fireplace. They do need to do a few cosmetic updates that I relayed to the owner so hopefully next time everything will be five stars.

Creek-side haven

We loved this cabin. Sitting out on the deck next to the creek was so relaxing and the location in between many great locations in Pisgah National Forest and Asheville was the perfect balance for our vacation. The cabin was perfectly sized for 2 adults and our dog. Temperatures ranged from 50 to 78 during our visit and the wall A/C unit and radiators were able to keep us quite comfortable. I'm not sure if that would have been the case had it been significantly warmer or colder. The only thing that could have been better was the mattress. An upgrade here would be nice.

Cute cottage

The property is semi private and easy to locate. The check in process was easy and convenient. The place was very clean and had everything we needed. It’s fairly close to food and grocery stores but secluded enough to feel like a getaway. Our only complaint was that the yard guy showed in the morning and was very loud and invasive of the romantic morning we had planned. But property manager was very apologetic and tried to make up for the inconvenience so that was nice. The bed was not very comfortable to sleep on but everything else in the house was cozy. We would definitely stay here again.
