4 Season Cottage in the Woods with Trail to Private Lake Usage

Wonderful place to stay! The owner, Beth, is always very accommodating and goes out of her way to help guests have a good time. The cabin is always clean and neat. Bill

This is a wonderful cottage for a mountain getaway! It was chilly and rainy while we were there, but the wood stove kept us cozy. We enjoyed fishing and canoeing in the lake with our Grandson. It was a steep hike back from the lake which our grandson thought quite the adventure. The town of Saluda is close by and would be fun to explore. We would definitely stay here again.

Our family just spent 4 nights at 4 seasons cabin for a much needed get away from hectic jobs & hiking time for our pup. The cabin was very clean and positioned at the end of a gravel road with great views of the surrounding mountains & Lake Shelia. We spent most of our time outside at the fire pit enjoying the peace & quiet. Made some great meals in the drop down kitchen & enjoyed relaxing at night in front of the wood burning stove. Not far from downtown Saluda or Hendersonville if you want to venture out. Beth was great about checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed.

We spent a short 4 night get-away in the mountains to do some hiking in the cooler air (we live in Fl) and this cabin delivered! The property is beautiful, especially the detailed stone fire pit area & the cabin's location at the end of the road (near the top of the mountain). It's very private, which is great for people vacationing with their dogs! But IMO, the thing that really sets this cabin apart from others is the included use of a canoe on the huge lake (a very short walk from the cabin) We visited during a cold snap in March, but still ventured out on the huge lake (with our 2 small dogs) and it was phenomenal! Although we expected to go hiking on our trip, a canoe outing wasn't something I'd originally thought of, but was definitely a hilight of our vacation! I'd imagine it's even more wonderful during warmer months when you could also swim! The cabin is close to nearby trails- we went to Norman Wilder Forest just 15-20 mins. away and it was fantastic! We also walked the trail up the mountain, to the left of the driveway, when we didn't want to have to drive anywhere. Beth checked in on us through the VRBO app &/or text to ensure our arrival and on another day to see if we needed garbage pick-up & she is easy to reach if you need anything (she recommended a great nearby hike for us).

Other misc details... The cabin's wifi worked great for us and I appreciated the DVD movies available as I missed the background noise of TV more than I care to admit, lol! The fireplace was definitely used a lot during our stay due to the colder weather.. & as a girl from the suburbs, I have to say it feels oddly satisfying to master building & maintaining a perfect fire, but there are also space heaters in the kitchen & bedrooms in case you require a bit of a learning curve- It did take me a couple times to learn how to get a fire started efficiently, I guess I've spent my whole life avoiding a fire and assuming wood easily ignites into flames, but regardless, I felt like a pro by the 2nd day! A minor mention for my fellow OCD packers, bring a hair dryer if you use one & we were also glad we brought our manual can opener as the one at the cabin is getting a bit worn out, but I can't think of anything else you'd need that's not already there! My bottom line... This was a really fabulous trip and I have no qualms about recommending Beth's 4 Seasons Cabin! Happy travels!

We stayed at this cozy cottage while my wife was on a clinical rotation in February. The property was beautiful and the cottage itself was very clean and well supplied. We loved being so secluded but also being so close to town. We took daily walks with our dog down the trail from the house to the lake and spent our weekends hiking all of the nearby trails. We also took out the canoe a few times and caught a few nice bass. The outdoor stone area was where we spent most of our time, whether it was watching the sunset and grilling dinner or making s'mores under the brightest night sky I've ever seen. Beth was extremely pleasant to work with and made sure we had everything we needed. She is the best! This place is special and I would highly recommend for anyone looking to unplug and relax. We will definitely be coming back.
