The cabin was perfect. The view while sitting on the deck chatting with friends was just as amazing as it looks in the photos. Quick and easy travel to Black Mountain and Asheville. This trip was a do-over from a trip planned for the same time last year when Hurricane Helene did such horrific damage. Contact was initiated by the cabin owner in 2024 asking if I would like to cancel my reservation because although their cabin had no damage, so much of the surrounding area was devastated. I certainly didn't expect the cabin owner to reach out to me about canceling the reservation and refunding my fees, but that's exactly what happened. Hence when we rescheduled our trip, I immediately booked the same cabin. As an aside, I know from my 2024 plans, that although their cabin wasn't damaged, surrounding neighbors were in need and they did all they could to help others in the area post Helene. Wonderful cabin! Wonderful cabin owners!

A spotless, spacious, spectacular home literally in the clouds. I and every one of my guests who stayed there were very impressed. This property is on our shortlist of places that we have to visit in the future. In addition to this the check-in and check-out process was a breeze and the owners were always responsive when we had a question or concern. And the "cherry on top" was seeing a family of black bears passing through looking for their next meal. Thanks for a great stay.

We came up for the Bigfoot festival in Marion. This house was absolutely awesome! We were blown away when we came in and saw the property in the view. Then we walked inside. Just absolutely beautiful. We came up with another couple and we each had our own space. Everything we needed for dinner was there. We spent as much time sitting on the back deck, staring at the view! No issues whatsoever. We had such a relaxing stay and I would recommend this property to anyone!

Absolutely spectacular!

Th cabin was nothing short of spectacular. The log cabin boasts breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, making it an ideal spot for both relaxation and adventure. Each bedroom is private with its own bathroom, and the fully equipped kitchen made meal prep a breeze. The outdoor spaces, including the sundeck and balcony, were perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. I highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a serene mountain getaway.

Wish we had more time!

My family spent two nights in the cabin on our way back to Pennsylvania from Georgia. The view is amazing. I would have been happy just sitting and watching the sky change with the fireplace going all day. We did some hiking a Chimney Rock but otherwise enjoyed hanging out at the cabin. We arrived after dark, making it challenging to get up the mountain but the directions were very detailed and we made it!
