The property was neat and had everything we needed. A little tricky to figure out location/parking at first. Close proximity to breweries/activities we enjoyed. Our family really enjoyed the hot tub and that it's pet friendly.

The place is nicely decorated, clean, and has a well-equipped kitchen. There are houses on either side, so it's not a fully wooded area. This is a refurbished single-wide trailer with a nice patio built onto the front. The bedrooms are a little tight. It is very pet friendly. We enjoyed our stay.

Cute cabin
For the most part my stay was lovely. The only issue I had was that I could not get the heat working (most likely user error) and my host was out of communication range.

Cute getaway
The house was tidy. The kitchen well stocked. Perfect for our needs. We did a girls getaway and the drive to get on the Blue Ridge Parkway was super easy. As was the drive into Asheville. We got chilly overnight so one morning we turned the temp higher. When we got back from our outing it was warm inside. We forgot to tuen the unit back cooler. Overall great trip!!
