The property was immaculate and the host very easy to work with. There were a few unexpected issues which the host rectified right away. There was central AC which was nice in July. The beds were very comfortable and the AC extender well up into the loft bedroom. There was no washer/dryer which I didn't notice when I booked but we were visiting our daughter and her family so we're able to do laundry at her house.
A nice scenic drive to the property. Property is easily accessible and located in a lovely neighborhood.Cabin is well maintained. Comfortable beds with nice sitting areas both inside and outside. Perfect for a little get-away
Jean,We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your property. The cabin was clean, well-equipped, and met our expectations. We especially enjoyed seeing the deer that visited in the early morning and again at dusk. We will definitely recommend your place to our family and friends!

Thank you so much for the nice review. I am glad you enjoyed the visit.
My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful three night at this property. The proximity to the Blue Ridge Mountains simply can’t be beat. The cabin itself was very nicely maintained, and all areas were comfortable. The sheets on the bed were incredibly soft and comfortable, which was very much appreciated. The check-in process was simple and Judy was an amazing Hostess. We are likely to return to this location at another time. Perfect stay!
Visiting for a long weekend and found this cabin. Judy is a great host and the cabin is amazing. Private and peaceful location. You won't be disappointed.

Thanks so much. I hope you got to enjoy the Parkway and Blue Ridge Music Center. The rhododendron are in bloom and this is one of my favorite times to meander down the Parkway. We appreciate your staying with us and appreciate your leaving the cabin so clean.
Have a great summer. Visit us again when the flatlands become too hot.

Great setting and great house
We really loved our stay at the cabin. The amenities were great and the house itself is very nice, and seems very new. The setting was just perfect as well; secluded, great views of the mountains, and terrific decks on the front and back from which to enjoy it. We look forward to coming back!
