  • I had the pleasure of staying in this wonderful home last Summer and will be returning in several weeks for " my Blackberry fix!" Tastefully appointed, comfy beds and ahhh the porch with the views and the rocking chairs.... I think we solved most of the world's problems...wonderful early morning at sunrise and sunet. A Great kitchen which is fully equipped for all our evening meals-go to the Fresh Market and pick up extras at Thompson's Grocery downtown Saluda. If you have to check your email, you can visit the local library. Loved the eclectic shops downtown Saluda, the Dish Barn en route to Hendersonville is lots of fun and there is a great shop about a mile from Interstate on the left(headed towards Saluda) that has great statuary. We found it more difficult to leave the cabin & were content to watch the Olympics on TV, read a book, eat,walk the dogs, go down to the river, take a nap and Repeat as necessary. A special thanks to the Atchley Family for a wonderful private retreat.

  • We just returned from the Blackberry and had a wonderful time. The cabin was clean, modern, and fully furnished. Having 2 bedrooms w/ complete baths was a treat! The view is unbelievable. Best of all, the cabin was dog-friendly and we always travel with our best friends. The drive was a bit stomach-clenching for a flatlander, but it was mostly paved which made it easier. Once there, it was wonderful! It was very hard to leave and come back to real life. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful place with us.

  • Just returned from a relaxing and peacful weekend at the Blackberry cabin. The view of the Green River valley from the living room and deck of the cabin is amazing! The cabin is very clean and comfortable and our dog enjoyed exploring the 25 acres surounding the cabin. We look forward to spending another weekend at the cabin sometime soon. Many Thanks!

  • This cabin is a little piece of heaven. We love just going and being lazy, cooking, reading,gazing at the view, and don't forget sleeping...the best in the world. The cabin is clean, up to date, and just a great private get away for couples or families. If you ever go there you will want to return!

  • What a great cabin! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. It's hard to believe how quickly you can get up to Saluda from the Charlotte area and then how you can feel like you are a world away from home. We went to the cabin with our small children who loved exploring the property, picking blackberries, making smores, relaxing in the hammock, playing with the toys in the cabin, watching videos and sleeping in the cool loft area. They thought it was great and asked if we could live there all the time. We loved relaxing on the porch and enjoying the beautiful views and hummingbirds. We had great dinners at The Purple Onion and Green River BBQ. We also enjoyed seeing Pearson Falls. There were so many things to do we didn't have enough time. We'll have to do them on our next visit - hope to go back to the Blackberry again.

  • We were back again this summer picking up kids from summer camp and had already booked the Saluda cabin for our summer stay in NC. The house and view were just as I remembered it from last summer and we had a great time. The owner is always very accommodating and it is nice working directly with the owner in renting the house and making plans. We visited places we hadn't seen during our last trip: DuPont National Forest (not sure of correct name), Flat Rock (we found a wonderful gallery and other stores), and went to Asheville to walk around downtown which I would highly recommend. Don't miss the Early Girl Cafe there. Also, the owner of the Blackberry had recommended Flight in Hendersonville...a upscale but absolutely wonderful restaurant. Green River Barbeque is always a favorite and kayaking with Green River Adventures. We ventured out to Brevard during this visit and canoeing on the French Broad. But a simple tubing trip down the Green River is well worth the time. We'll be back next summer!

  • We spent a long weekend at the cabin in early June. Friends joined us and we had a great time. The weather was fantastic. Mostly sunny with a gentle breeze. One morning we awoke to a gentle rain that only lasted an hour or so. It was so relaxing and soothing. The views from the porch are breathtaking. You look out over the gorge to see mountains on either side and miles down the river's path. We hiked one day on the Green River and enjoyed nature's beauty. One evening the weather cooled enough to allow us to have a fire in the pit next to the cabin. Deer and wild turkey were seen as we walked the secluded grounds of the cabin. It was an extremely relaxing weekend and one we would like to repeat.

  • Our family decided to get away for a few days and chose the BlackBerry! Words can not describe what a wonderful time we shared with one another. We knew we were in for a special time when we drove up the driveway-up, up, and up! You can not even see another property! One we arrived at the cabin we were thrilled to find everything we needed for our family. The loft has a bunkbed and a queen bed and plenty of games and videos for the kids to use. We spent most of our time outside- we cooked s'mores and made a huge fire in the fire pit. We relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful evening. We also took a quick drive to go fishing. We met some locals that said the fish liked corn! Who knew! The next day we came back with corn and caught lots and lots of fish!(we didn't keep them) I have saved the best for last- THE VIEW! I have never seen a prettier view. It literally changed by the hour! We felt really blessed to experience the sights and sounds of this lovely mountain home. It is a perfect place to get away from it all. We had a wonderful time and it was a pleasure to watch our children experience nature in it finest form! We will return for another visit.
