The cabin was a wonderful place to celebrate Christmas. Even a tree! We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the creek right in the back yard. We will be back!

We had a wonderful stay at this Vrbo in North Carolina. The location was very convenient, with a grocery store close by, which made everything easy. We especially loved the separate downstairs area—it was perfect for privacy and gave the kids their own space to play and relax. The kitchen was well stocked with all the supplies we needed, making meals at home simple and enjoyable. Overall, a comfortable, family-friendly place that we would definitely recommend and stay at again.

The view and screened in patio were my favorite parts. The washing machine was not working properly but I contacted Chris and he did his best to resolve the issue as quickly as he could. The upstairs/main floor was beautiful. Downstairs was great for kids but I wish it had not been carpeted (in white). Overall, it was a good house to relax and enjoy out two weeks in NC.
