Our stay at the Cliffhanger was wonderful. From the pool to the hammock the place has everything one needs for a fantastic relaxing mountain stay! Michelle was always available and made the process easy. Would love to stay there again sometime!
Michelle is a fantastic hostess! The cabin was comfortable and we enjoyed the artistic touches throughout the property.Definitely a quiet getaway, looking out at the woods from the porch. Thank you!!!
This was our 5th year coming and we absolutely love it here. Can’t wait to come back next year.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It truly means the world to us that you’ve chosen to stay with us for the past five years. Guests like you are the reason we love hosting. We’re honored to be part of your annual tradition and can’t wait to welcome you back for year number six. Safe travels until next time!
Cliffhanger is a charming hideaway, located conveniently to inviting destinations like Hendersonville, Asheville and Lake Lure but provides secluded retreat on your return. The pool is wonderful in sunny weather and if it rains, you can enjoy outside sitting on the covered, deck. Michelle is a gracious host, incredibly responsive, and gives excellent recommendations. We had a wonderful time and hope to return!
Cliffhanger was an amazing cabin and so very peaceful. The pool and gardens were beautiful but my absolutely favorite was the wrap around porch and hammock. We were close enough to go into town if we wanted to, but we had everything we needed at the cabin to just enjoy some down time. Michelle was an incredible and attentive host, and we could not have asked for more.We will definitely be back...Wayne & Hope
Enjoyed our stay at the Cliffhanger! Pet-friendly and outdoor oasis! We hiked nearby at Chimney Rock, DuPont State Forest, Bearwallow Mountain Trail and Big Hungry Trail but could not wait to get back to the cabin to relax in hammock and float in pool. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed your stay at Cliffhanger and were able to explore so many of our favorite hiking spots. It sounds like you found the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation! There’s nothing better than returning to the cabin after a day on the trails to unwind in the hammock or enjoy the pool. We’re so glad your dog could join the fun, too. We truly appreciate you choosing Cliffhanger and hope to welcome you back for another mountain getaway soon!
Great views from the cabin.. very private and cozy.. be aware that this is in the mountains and the drive up can be a challenge but very well worth it.. thanks Michelle.. I know you call it Cliffhanger but to me it is Leather and Lace
Cabin is exactly as described. If you need peace and quiet this is the place. The host is very quick to respond to the needs of her guests. This host and her property are why I love VRBO.
The property and the house was adorable! The only thing that freaked me out a little bit was the height of where the house was but that's just me. Otherwise wonderful stay absolutely love the cabin and the beds were super comfortable.
Quiet secluded relaxing great pool awesome porch to enjoy your meals

We loved everything! Michelle was very quick to respond to all of our questions and concerns. The place is very cozy and comfortable with all that was needed including a dishwasher, large refrigerator, and washer & dryer. The Wi-Fi worked perfect and both of the smart TVs were large and loaded with plenty of free channels. We spent most of our time on the porch watching humming birds during the day and fireflies at night. It was so peaceful and relaxing, with huge couches and a fireplace inside and another out on the porch. We were also fortunate to have a sunny last day to our visit and spent time lounging out by the pool. The jetted tub was a plus and big enough for my wife to share!The home is furnished with a mix of rustic wood, artwork, and modern furnishings.
There were some issues that arose during our stay. However, the host addressed concerns emphatically and expeditiously. Hr communication was excellent. This is a unique cabin and would stay here again. Looking forward to trying the pool when in-season!
Loved the quiet atmosphere. Our dog loved being able to wander.Michelle is an amazing and thoutful host!

I truly appreciate your thoughtful comments about my hosting and would love to welcome you back anytime. 🐾✨

We loved the homey secluded cabin feel but had all the modern amenities we needed and plenty of close fun outing. Didn't get to take advantage of the pool but would love to come back and try it. Dogs had plenty of space in the back yard to explore.
