This property has a well stocked kitchen and everything is nice and tidy throughout the house. We enjoyed our stay. It gave us peace and quiet while at the house, and a scenic ride to downtown Brevard for shopping and dining. The porch gives you an opportunity to sit and relax and enjoy downtime. There was a fairly hard rain one evening when we sat on the porch and enjoyed the cool air it brought. The cabin itself is charming and is loaded with lots of conversation pieces about the house. Beds are comfortable.

Cabin was lovely - very unique and a bit off the beaten path.... We had a wonderful time exploring waterfalls in Brevard, Pisgah Forest and Dupont State Recreational Forest. Oskar Blues Brewery was fun and had great burgers. Highly recommend this property

About the host

Hosted by Phyllis Goff

Host profile image
Mark Goff, Owner, builder, contractor & owner of Goff Construction, built this cabin.
Phyllis Goff, owner, real estate broker, designed, decorated and manages this property.
We have been in the area almost 40 years, and are so thankful to live here and love sharing it with the many visitors we have had at Laurel Haven.

Why they chose this property

The beauty. Nature surrounds and abounds. The peace. The proximity to so many activities. It is central to Dupont State Forest and Pisgah National Forests. Biltmore House is only 1 hour away.

What makes this property unique

We have tried to bring the outside inside. We have used many reclaimed objects, like the 100 year old wormy chestnut, the claw foot tub, antique sinks in both bathrooms. The laurel handrail and stone fireplace are great focal points in our cabin.
