It was the perfect getaway location. Just a few minutes/miles from great restaurants and the reason for our visit to the area (2024 Bigfoot Festival).

Gem in the country

I can’t say enough about this cabin. I wanted to take my daughter on a vacation that would be different from the usual beach trip and the cabin, owner and area didn’t disappoint. We did so many interesting things and the location of the property made it convenient to reach all our destinations. The cabin’s decor and cleanliness was quant and comfortable and had everything we needed to include some nice extras from the owner. I literally only needed my shampoo and soap. We will definitely be back in the future. Highly recommend!

Inaccurate information

I have a lot to say about my stay in this place but I will only refer to the most important in my opinion: CONS: 1) The owner does not comply with the "no smoking" policy as described in the amenities. I chose this place because the policy says "no smoking". I don't smoke and it bothers me a lot to smell cigarette smoke. The porch is completely impregnated with the smell of cigarettes. My daughter and I were not able to enjoy the porch. To say that it is a non-smoking place is false advertising. 2) The bed (masterbroom) is high and the mattress is hard. The pillowcases (master and guest bedrooms) appear to have not been washed. It does not smell good. It smells like grease. Having clean sheets and appropriate mattresses is the best thing any lodging should have. 3) I had to put the large rug in the main bedroom between the kitchen and the living room because my daughter and I stumbled several times on a gap between the two rooms, thus avoiding any regrettable accident. 4) Outside in the parking lot it is very dark. Lights should be put up so that no one can trip at night. This is a real drawback. Without light, anyone can slip down the stairs and have an accident. PROS: 1) Good location. 2) Nice place, very good decoration. 3) Clean. 4) The mattress of the guest bed is very soft, I really liked it.

Served our purpose

Went to NC to leaf peep. The location worked out because we were chasing foliage. This place is tiny! It worked for our family of four but breakfast was a challenge due to lack of counter space/seating. You are also expected to tidy up at checkout; put towels in washer and remove sheets from beds even though there is a cleaning fee. Price was reasonable otherwise

Great Getaway!

I loved the cleanliness of the property and how small and quaint it was. It is located close to Rutherfordton and Forest City. While the owners live on the property-we never saw them-they give you privacy. The home was stocked with everything you would need. The only thing I would suggest is designated parking-we were confused about where to park....and more lighting at the back-especially the walkway. Thankfully I used my phoneś flashlight!!! A firepit would be nice too!!! I would definitely not hesitate to return to this property!

If paradise were a cottage

Let me say, the owner did a great job decorating. She was very accommodating and the cottage was stocked with lots of useful things. The extras here were very convenient with myself and my boyfriend only being in town for 3 days. There was a garden that we were offered to pick from complementary, and I have to say the veggies were all great! My only regret is that I had to rush out and forgot to leave a tip. Overall I would say this is a must for a romantic get away or some time to yourself.
