This property was amazing and the view was even better. However, Rebecca was the best host we have ever had. She went above and beyond to make us comfortable. I will be booking only her properties when I visit the area in the future. Thank you, Rebecca.

Great Family Trip
Me and my family came to this property for Labor Day weekend and it was very nice cabin. I love how it sits in the mountains with lots of privacy. The description basically describes the features exactly. There is a rocky dirt road to get to the cabin so be aware when traveling. Great restaurants near by and all activities are within minutes from the cabin including the lake and beach. We had a blast kayaking, ATV riding, outdoor escape room and horseback riding. Great overall experience for our first cabin trip!!

Rustic Refuge
Well appointed, comfortable, spacious cabin with all the modern amenities, tucked into a beautiful wooded private reserve. It was great to unwind and de-stress without "roughing it." We enjoyed just relaxing surrounded by nature in full beauty in a most scenic setting, while being just a short drive to good restaurants and fun activities. We wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended.

The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. It could have used a few board games. I did find the xbox but did not want to loose my grandson to video games glad it was in a drawer. Private but not isolated. Quiet neighborhood. As for the driveway, Yes it is a little bit of a challange but RWD back in. FWD forward in. Other reviews said lots of bugs/spiders NONE. Nice home we enjoyed our stay.

Comfortable and Unbelievably Quiet Hilltop
This property is a charming log home on a long gravel incline. It is the quietest stand of woods that I have ever been in. Easy access to Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. The kitchen is "Everything you need and nothing you don't!"

Anniversary trip
What a great cabin in a great location. I wish I could add pics. We came late Oct and the drive to the cabin and all around the cabin was exceptional. We spent each morning and evening on the comfortable swing taking in the colors and seeing deer and turkey. The woods behind the cabin were great for hiking and taking the dogs on short walks. The entire area is beautiful,

Cabin Maint issue not resolved by Owner/Host

It’s a scam!!!
After we checked out, they charged us $140 via the “incidentals and damages” even though there were no damages. They said it was a cleaning fee that was in our contract. I spoke with VRBO and they confirmed that there was no such thing stated in the contract. However, I was still charged. They said they would dispute it and I haven’t heard back. I contacted the host and haven’t heard back. I was also charged an “additional person” fee of $10 and we didn’t not have additional people. Eight is the max and we had 6. So watch out. You will be over charged and there’s apparently nothing you can do about it.
