The house and everything about it was fantastic- However there was no internet connection or streaming at all during our stay. It would be a wonderful fall retreat when the internet service is fixed,

Thank you so much for your kind words about the house! We’re delighted you enjoyed your stay and agree that it’s a wonderful place for a fall getaway.
We’re truly sorry about the internet issue. We spent a great deal of time working with Spectrum during your stay, but unfortunately they weren’t able to resolve it while you were there. We completely understand how frustrating that was and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
We hope you’ll give us another chance to host you—with beautiful fall views and, hopefully, a much better experience with Spectrum! 😊
Love the cabin. Plenty of rooms was supposed to be 7 of us but 2 couldn't come, so we had a bedroom we didn't have to use.It had what you needed to cook. If you wanted to

The cabin was great. Plenty of space for our group. The deck was a wonderful spot to relax. The host was easy to communicate with. More light in the downstairs bedrooms would be good. Overall it was a great stay.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the spacious cabin, relaxing deck, and found communication with us easy. We appreciate your feedback about the lighting in the downstairs bedrooms and will certainly take a look at ways to improve it. It was a pleasure having you stay with us, and we hope to welcome you back to the mountains again soon!
The cabin is in a great location, easy access to area attractions, the grill was brand new, which was a pleasant surprise. Deck and sitting areas are nice just to sit and listen to the creek below. We did have a visitor one night. A bear walked around the vehicles the big muddy paw prints were a give away. Never seen it though.
Extremely helpful host! Wonderful cabin close to everything! Super clean and cozy but big enough for our extended family! Even our fur babies enjoyed their vacay!

About the host
Hosted by Norma Rea, Owner
My family and I have been visiting western NC for over 20 years.. I finally decided that this would be the best place I knew, for a vacation home for my family, friends and to share with others. I've been in the real estate business for over 20 years.. I've owned many rental properties and Love to share my home with others.
Why they chose this property
I wanted something centrally located to all that western NC had to offer. I also like my privacy. This home fit the bill! I can't tell you how much we enjoy spending time on the porch swing, either catching up with friends or just reading a good book while listening to the babbling creek. The floor plan of the home also allowed my family and my visitors to enjoy their own privacy within. Each floor has it's own bedroom, full bath and bonus or sitting room.
What makes this property unique
Our home will comfortably sleep up to ten people. Three of the bedrooms (two of which are en-suite) are fitted with king beds while the 4th bedroom has bunk beds (single top, double bottom) and a queen size bed in the same room. The home also has three and a half baths, family room with fireplace and cathedral ceilings, fully outfitted kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, dining room, loft with bar, television, and washer and dryer. The two sided, wrap around porch offers a swing, rocking chairs, grill and picnic table. There is an additional picnic table out by the firepit. The downstairs porch offers additional seating and a Jacuzzi tub and fire pit. The home has also been equipped with a key-less entry system. No more searching for real estate offices to find and/or return a key. Of course, Wi-Fi and cable with premium channels are provided. You can easily park three cars on the driveway. There is also an outdoor security camera.
