Cozy cabin in the mountains. Cabin was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. The coffee maker is a dual kureg, has a pot and also can use pods. The yard needed attention. Yes there was a hot tub but unfortunately we did not get a chance to us it. Will keep the verbo in mind for future trips. The drive to get to the cabin was adventurous. I suggest you do it in day light the first time.

The property was amazing. We had rain every day of the stay, but that didn't impact us a lot. Sitting in a hot tub, in the rain, for hours is a great way to spend the day.The cabin was great and very close to Asheville for trips out of the hills.

The cabin was immaculate, which is very important to me. It was just my husband and myself so we only used the downstairs bedroom. The adjustable king bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was clean and supplied with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, blow dryer and plenty of towels. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, although we only cooked breakfast there as there are plenty of restaurants and grocery stores to choose from just a couple of miles away. We used the huge hot tub which was clean and hot! The cabin is surrounded by trees so it tends to be a bit dark inside.I would suggest the owner put a floor lamp in the corner of the living room where the TV is to brighten that area. The road to the cabin is narrow and steep and would require 4 wheel drive in the snow. We had a very relaxing week and would recommend the cabin to others.
