We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kids loved the loft and the hot tub. The cabin was cozy and the beds slept great. There were just a couple minor inconveniences, one with a bedroom ceiling fan and the other with the oven. However Troy was quick and responsive to these requests and provided a quick fix and solution on both. He was very easy to work and communicate with.
We really enjoyed our stay even though it wasn't long enough lol. Didn't want our time to end. Hot tub was nice,hot and ready for us to jump in on arrival. The place was clean and I love that 1 bedroom had a deck porch . The lift was nice as well. Had a minor accident but everything was perfect!!! Took plenty of pics around property!!! The drive was okay the gravel road didn't give us too much hassle and we were safe. I loved it and will possibly book on next casino trip
Once we got to the property the cabin was just what was described. Troy was a great host and called to make sure we arrived ok and if there was anything we neede. Great host
The property was so much better than the description. We had everything we needed, host was most helpful in everyway. Definitely will be back to visit Troy!!!
Very affordable house, we were expecting something alot smaller for the price, it is situated 15 mins from beach and wilmington we will most definatly be staying again, the restaurants that are close by are amazing and within walking distance
The place was exactly how it was described. Troy met us when we got there to make sure we had everything we needed, he was very attentive. It was so peaceful, precisely what we were looking for.
This property should be removed from VRBO listings. The Host was extremely rude. He actually called us "Asheville Freeloaders" (and we're not from Asheville) because we complained about not being able to get in the hot tub for 2 days! The first day the hot tubshottib temp was 76 and lnly 86 the 2 d
Nice little mountain cabin. We enjoyed our stay very much. Felt like we were all alone here, very private

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Internet in and outNo connection for tv multi hrs in living room - showed Wi-Fi not connectedLiving room fan inaccessibility - cord length even on chairMultiple light bulbs out in every room (master had 1 light bulb, broken blind and no curtain2nd bedroom fan broken, no blind and/or curtains - had to put up foil blind for son to sleepOven would not work/turn onKitchen pots and pans bent and food remains , but advised to hand-wash onlyMicrowave threw the breaker multiple timesChair had duck tape to cover hole but still worked well and comfySeating for 2 arm chairs and 2 reclining chairsRotted wood leading into the house posed tripping hazard but plenty room to walk around itNails sticking out of wood above hot tub!!!Grill bottom unkept which caused inconsistent cooking, ruined meals!No cooking sheets (oven didn’t work anyway)Soap in bathroom watered downNo toiletries but not listed on postingStained pillowsI confronted the owner and he said that I should write whatever I want bc he sold the house for a whopping 250,000. Big money man. The nails inches above your head in the hot tub were a really nice touch! Don’t stay here unless you want to waste your money.
The cabin was a cute, cozy getaway. My family and I enjoyed our stay and the jacuzzi was very nice and relaxing. I really liked having my coffee out on the back porch in the mornings. The jacuzzi building and the flower beds need a little TLC but everything else was great.
