Coolest place I've ever stayed!

We just returned from our Thanksgiving getaway to the mountains with my mom and our 3 kids. We all loved the Homestead Log Cabin. I thought of all the families who must have celebrated Thanksgiving here over the decades. What a nice feeling to be added to the list. The cabin is very tastefully decorated and we had more than we needed to cook our feast. The kids loved the family room off the master bedroom. They felt like they had their own private place. My husband and I relaxed in the hot tub each night in the cold weather. We plan on returning again in the spring to see family again.

Charming, but lots of problems

My sister and I have just returned from the Homestead cabin, which was charming and well located; however we encountered several problems. When we arrived we found no corkscrew and when we started our dinner there was only one skillet in the kitchen - it was teflon and had big scratches and black lumps in it - not usable at all. Then when I went to unpack [in the green and red room] the closet floor was soaking wet and there was black mold all over the ceiling. Black mold is very dangerous. I could not use this closet at all - the floor was still wet when we left on Sunday so I had to keep my suitcase on the floor in the bedroom all weekend. There is no dresser and no nightstand or reading lamp by the bed in that room. Also when I went to bed I found that there was no mattress cover on that bed. Later we went to the living room to watch a movie and the DVD player was broken. And in the master bedroom the hot water only stayed on for a few minutes; then it went cold. Is it on a timer?? And my sister found a burnt out light bulb in that room. Your maintenance man resolved many of those problems the next day, but it was certainly not a good way for us to start a "relaxing" weekend.

We just returned from the Homestead Log Cabin and loved it. Close to town Hendersonville and Asheville. The decor was well planned out and comfortable. Heather did a great job helping us plan things to do. We will go back again.

What a historically cool cabin! It was a great starting point for all our adventures! We went to Chimney Rock, Biltmore Estate, Downtown Hendersonville and the waterfall areas in Brevard. We can't wait to return again! Derek and Bev Coral Springs, FL

Dean and Sandra- This was our first trip to the Hendersonville area and we are in love with it! The Homestead Cabin was perfect for us. It's convenience to everything was fantastic. We had hoped it would not be extremely secluded and this was just right. The hot tub was nice after long days of hiking. We would recommend your historic "quirky" cabin to anyone! Thank you! Steve and Dana
