Pisgah Prost! Haus In Secluded Woods Near Hiking, Biking & Breweries

This is a cute little house that looks like it has had some updates in recent years. The fireplace was lovely and much appreciated on the cold winter nights. Perfect location for visiting both Dupont and Pisgah National Forests and many other nearby destinations. Just a short drive to Asheville as well. The negative about this property is the state of cleanliness. It could use a DEEP cleaning and looks as though it hasn't been properly cleaned since the updates were made. It reminded me of a frat house in college, great bones but not cared for. I suppose this is fine if you are a college student or young adult wanting to get away to a party house for a few days but as a family with 2 children, it left something to be desired. I've never seen my kids' socks so dirty!! The silverware in the drawer looked as if someone unloaded the dishwasher by just throwing a handful of silverware into the drawer, not caring about placing them in the appropriate places in the holder in the drawer. The table tops needed to be wiped down as I could see water marks and spills from the previous guests and there were dishes left in the dishwasher. The dishwasher did look like it had been run but, unfortunately, someone ran it with pasta on the dishes so there were bits of food stuck to all the coffee cups and dried noodles in the bottom of the dishwasher. Due to the state of the kitchen, I decided to wash all the towels that were haphazardly placed in the closet to be sure they were clean prior to our use. There were also cobwebs throughout in all the upper corners of the walls and bags of stinky trash in the garage that I had to contact the owner to have removed because we planned on using the garage and didn't want to smell someone else's trash for 5 nights. It was very disappointing because the pictures online look so great! I'd really give this place a 1 based on cleanliness and a 5 on location so I''m averaging it out to a 3. This property has great potential and I hope the owners take heed and hire someone to do a thorough cleaning; it could be such a gem!!

Cute, clean and convienetly located!

The place was exactly as advertised, just wished the table was a little larger and had a few more chairs as we had 7 adults and had to sit on stools and utilize the kitchen table. We knew this going in, so we were fine with it, but it is an area that could be improved that would accommodate this type of gathering for holiday vacationers, otherwise for a group of 5 or less on a weekend, the place would be great, would definitely stay again.

Tucked away in the forest, this easy access off the main highway home had everything we needed. The use of the garage was perfect for storing our bikes. Such a perfect location to get to dupont state forest and pisgah national forest. so many places to eat close by with brevard and etowah. Very clean and updated throughout. Not a single complaint from myself or my wife.
