The host and the property completely exceeded all expectations. This property is absolutely amazing. It is secluded enough to enjoy privacy by the creek and just a short drive to the attractions in the area if you would like to see the sights. A perfect location. I highly recommend staying on this property. The host will make sure you go home with nothing but pleasant memories. He was awesome! We will definitely be coming back.
The cabin was very beautiful, clean and had everything we needed. Hot tub was great, back porch was my favorite place to be with the sound of the water flowing. Very relaxing weekend.
We had a great visit. The cabin was exactly how it was described. The cabin was very clean. The dishwasher was broke when we went but we were told it was on order. This did not affect our stay or bother us to wash the little dishes we have.
Love staying at this cabin. This makes our 3rd yr staying here. Perfect size and level of privacy. Glad to see it survived the flood. Not as much fish as usual post flooding. Hoping the hatcheries will get the trout population back up next year. Still a great stay. Plenty of supplies in kitchen and bath. Lovely view from from front and back deck. First time seeing a bear here. So that was an extra special treat.
The property is even better than described. Gorgeous views, very relaxing. Owner was very quick to help with anything we needed. Would definitely love to stay again.
Very nice peaceful fishing wasn’t that good but it’s usually a crap shoot I went to the bridges and caught trout. These waters get fished out quick timing is everything.
We stayed in this cabin for a week and two other families we know stayed in the other two which worked out very nicely. The cabin was very nicely decorated in a cabin theme and very clean. The bed was comfy, the kitchen well stocked. It was dog friendly with pet bowls on hand. We enjoyed the large hot tub every night. There was a note when we arrived that the dishwasher was broken and that a repair request was put in but no one ever came which was inconvenient. The wifi is weak - don't plan on doing work or streaming here. This is a great place to get away from it all as it is in the middle of nowhere. Stock up on groceries before you come because it takes a good 30-40 minutes on curvy, narrow roads to get to a grocery store or restaurant. I wouldn't drive those roads after dark, that's for sure. Overall we really enjoyed staying here and would do it again.
We loved the location it’s a beautiful home. Lots of space. We will definitely be booking again. Only thing I will say is if you’re coming in at night. It’s ever easy to miss could use a some lights. We are already planning our next stay

Nice place. However, my husband and kids were absolutely disappointed bc there were no fish to be caught as listed on the listing. My husband actually left deflatef.sad
This is a beautiful and well appointed cabin with everything you need for a great stay. Dog friendly and there is a lot of space for them to roam. Will look to come back in the future, hopefully for longer than a weekend next time!
We loved everything about this cabin! The property was gorgeous and the cabin was fully stocked with everything you could ever need. Can’t wait to go back!
This was our second time staying here and it did not disappoint. Beautiful, quiet property. The cabin offers everything you need and more. We will be back next Fall!
This place is a real retreat. Nestled in a deep valley near Boone, it is a peaceful place. The cabin looks brand new and everything worked well. Love the gas fireplace! Beds were comfortable and furniture comfortable. I will return!
We love Deep Gap and were delighted to find this cabin! It’s on beautiful property, decorated nicely, spacious, clean plus had all the amenities of home. We loved the privacy, large yard, stream for fishing and the hot tub on the porch! Looking forward to coming back!
