Why the Owner Chose Brevard
We moved to this area in 2000 and just love it!
We are glad we can share it with others.
The Unique Benefits at this Vacation Cabin on stream
Our cottage is situated on a quiet street on an acre of woodland. There is a beautiful stream flowing behind the cottage and you can see a waterfall from the deck off the secluded Master bedroom deck.
Road is not shown on map, but turn right onto Babbling Brook off Stoneybrook (it is the only right off Stoneybrook)
