Incredible Stay

Lynn was very communicative and friendly. My significant other and I had a wonderful time. The road to the house is paved (which is rare as most mountain homes include an off-roading adventure). Bathrooms were very clean. Bed was extremely comfortable. Hot tub was easy to function. Water pressure, AC, and Wi-Fi were fantastic. This home was exactly what we needed for some R&R. We will definitely be back in the future!

Adorable, private, close to nature

This cabin is really adorable and honestly the most immaculately clean rental I’ve ever seen. We loved the beautiful windows (and had amazing sunsets to watch, along with a frost-tipped Mountain View one morning after the fog lifted). Kitchen was well equipped and we were able to cook several meals. Nearby nature trail covered in moss was an easy way to stretch our legs and prepare for larger hikes on the Blue Ridge. We would definitely return!

Perfect!

This was exactly what we had in mind and then some! The property was beautiful and immaculate. The host had the place stocked with essentail items that we didnt think to bring as far as cooking supplies. The neighborhood was quiet and the view was amazing! I loveeee the moss grass. The hot tub was warmed up and ready to go and the fire feature was the perfect addition after a cold day of smowboarding. The bed was so comfortable I didn't even move. The host was prompt and attentive via vrbo in regards to any questions or isses we may have had. ( we did not have any issues) It was a wonderful experience.. I'd give more than 5 stars if it was an option. Highly reccomend!!

Wonderful place to stay

The cabin was very cute and clean 🙂. It was so comfortable - we felt like we were at home. Very clean and plenty of towels and space. Close to everything although we aren’t used to driving through the mountains and curvy roads 😬. It was definately a Challenge getting up to the house. Very steep and couldn’t tell if anyone was coming. But luckily it all worked out. Would definately stay there again. We missed it as soon as we left😢

Great time in the mountains

Our family had a great time staying at this cabin. It was our second visit and we love the location. It’s the perfect balance of seclusion, but close enough to the city to access restaurants and shops. The host was great too!! The gas fireplace was not working when we got there so I contacted Lynn. She went out of her way to make sure the tank was filled and the gas company was there within 30 minutes!!

Lovely Getaway!

The house was very clean and comfortable. We appreciated the little extras, dishwasher soap, hand soap, paper towels and extra t.p.! While we were out and about every day, we so enjoyed having our morning coffee and late afternoon cocktails on the deck with the breathtaking view of the mountains!

Lynn was an excellent host! The cabin is perfectly secluded and just a short ride to either downtown Waynesville or Sylva. Great natural light, sounds of the flowing creek down the hill, and nature in all directions. I would highly recommend staying here. Cant wait to go back!
