This cabin is absolutely gorgeous. The layout of the home, gorgeous big windows for viewing the creek and forest, just made our mountain getaway! The appliances were all new and every detail was covered from the Henckel pots and pans to the grill under the deck.

Beautiful location if you’re looking to be secluded and away from town. The stream running right in front of the house was perfect. Wonderful place to sit with morning coffee and it was fun catching brook and rainbow trout!Note that while navigating to the property, the last turn crosses a the stream in the middle of a bridge replacement project.

A little piece of heaven! We enjoyed our stay so much! Our two boys had a wonderful time playing in the creek/pond catching tadpoles and salamanders. The cabin had everything that we needed and so much more! Steve was quick to respond and the cabin was immaculate! We can’t wait to come back!

We loved this home. We rent vacation homes a lot and are very clean people. This was the only home that we have had where there were no real cleaning issues. It was also very well appointed with anything you would need to cook, and these items were clean also. This property was very well appointed. I thought the home was even better than the pictures. The furniture was very nice, and there were a lot of very thoughtful items for guests, such as cornhole, disc golf, and various other games. The hot tub was also clean, and obviously serviced. The grill was great also. The river/creek was amazing to have there. The only downsides I thought (if I had to list some) was that it was not in Banner Elk. It took us almost a half hour to get there. There was also major bridge construction to get to the home (I know that is out of the homeowner's control), and the home did not seem to be situated on 82 acres as listed. We tried exploring, but there was a home (trailer) down the driveway a little more on the left clearly labeled private with cameras. Regardless, it was a wonderful stay and I would stay again. If I could make one improvement, I would say at this price point, some laundry detergent would've been nice, and also some coffee pods. This is a beautiful home though. I highly recommend. We made wonderful memories. Thank you to the homeowners for sharing with us.

The trailer is a RV and is temporary while I rebuild my home that was destroyed during hurricane Helene. The bridge construction 1/2 mile away is also temporary and a small inconvenience to take the temporary bridge. Steve
