Property and inside the cabin well lit. Loved the enclosed deck perfect for kids and pets! Everything you need for your stay in the mountains. About 7 miles from W. Jefferson for dining and shopping. Great water pressure in the shower. No need for bottled water, great water right from the faucets

We could not have asked for a better and more peaceful cabin than this one. The location is beautiful and extremely peaceful. The deer greeted us every morning and evening. The cabin was well stocked and spotless. Karen, our host, responded immediately with any questions we had, she was amazing. I would recommend this cabin 100% and we will be back each year. We can’t say enough good things about our stay.

What a beautiful peaceful cabin! We loved everything about it, the front porch with rocking chairs were perfect for coffee and books in the morning and cocktails in the afternoon. The deck is huge and has gates to keep the dogs safe. Both Gas and charcoal grills!! The host thought of everything that you may need during your stay! Best stocked VRBO we’ve ever stayed in. And did I mention the family of deer that come by everyday

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin has all the amenities one could want. Our Host Karen was terrific and responded promptly to any questions. We cut a Christmas tree and stayed an extra day to enjoy the 3 inches of snow we received, what a bonus. We look forward to our next stay!

This is the most charming cabin, very clean and had everything we needed with some special goodies waiting for us and our golden doodle. Enjoyed sitting on the fenced patio which was excellent for our pup! Deer visited a few times each day. Highly recommend this cabin and plan to revisit in near future.
