Very quiet, private cabin hidden away in the mountains. Had everything needed ,just pack your clothes and grab some groceries to enjoy a family meal grilled right on the porch! We watched the stars and roasted smores wrapped in comfy blankets while listening to the water fall just a few feet away. Perfect getaway to avoid the busy traffic of Asheville yet close enough to enjoy the relaxing ride into town to shop, enjoy the Biltmore (were pass members and were happy to be close enough to go 2 days in a row )or find new things to do in Hendersonville.

The cabin its self was very cozy and pet friendly, however there’s a lot of damage to the property around the house. Not the you can help that. But just to be clear the hurricane did a number on the property surrounding the cabin.

When we arrived we were greeted with the stitch of a dead animal… we found dead animal (mouse) on the kitchen floor! The bath towels all smelled of cigarettes.The smell from the rodent never left the house and we had to abandon our stay as we were worried our dog may get poisoned by whatever killed the mouse..Vacassa said they “walked through “ the house and is was ready for us…this was obviously a lie! I feel cheated out of a nice stay and my hard earned cash.

I was looking for a quiet place to relax and talk to God. This quaint cabin with a wrap around porch facing a small waterfall was exactly what I needed. Two friends joined me for half the week. We stayed on the porch playing cards and cooking on the grill. Great week!

Waterfall is the selling point!

More remote than I was expecting but the nervous drive up and down the mountain was more than worth it because of the enjoyment my granddaughters got out of playing in the waterfall! The deck/rockers were my personal favorite. Definitely could use some updating/tlc but was more than adequate for our short stay.

Cute little cabin in hidden location.

The cabin was cute, in a secluded location; and I love the little waterfall behind it. They were thoughtful in providing the soap and shampoo/conditioner so that we didn’t need to buy any. There’s a few family board games to play with too. My only complaint is that it didn’t look as clean as I’d like.

Overall, the cabin was fine. However, it was very musty and smelled of mildew. When we arrived, the dehumidifier was not on. We discovered that the sheets had not been washed since the last person had been there. The cabin appears larger and more comfortable in picture than it actually is. Parking was fine, the porch was nice and the beds were very comfortable.

Great weekend getaway

The wrap around porch and the waterfall did not disappoint. Truly the highlight of this location. We could even hear the waterfall inside. This was very private and peaceful but centrally located for several popular areas including Chimney Rock, Asheville and Henderson.
