Beautiful property. Very clean and cozy with an amazing view. My only complaint is that I had reached out to the host via the VRBO app prior to our stay but never heard back. Everything else was great otherwise.

The cabin was very clean and nice. I would suggest bringing condiments like salt and pepper tinfoil if you’re gonna cook or anything there because there is nothing like that. The pots and pans could use some updating. Teflon was missing from a lot of them. I only had one pan that I could actually use to fry some sausage and eggs.

Thank you for staying with us at High Expectations and for taking the time to share your review. We apologize for the issue you experienced with the pots and pans. We have reported this concern to the appropriate department for review. Regarding the salt and pepper, post Covid-19, for the safety and well-being of our guests, we are unable to leave open containers of food or previously used items in the cabin, as we cannot ensure that they have not been used by a previous guest. We appreciate your feedback and hope you will choose to stay with us again in the future.

Labor Day Retreat

The neighborhood and property were very nice. It was close to Blue Ridge and other area attractions. The cabin was well stocked and comfortable. Pool table and hot tub were great to have, especially when it rains and you cannot get outside.

Love this cabin!

This was our second stay at this cabin and we've already booked a weekend next year! It is a perfect getaway from the summer heat and chaos of urban life. The views are beautiful, the hot tub is a highlight, and everything is so clean and organized. It's small enough where family can spend quality time together but big enough for any one of us to get some privacy for a nap or quiet time.

The view from the cabin is breath taking! The house is cozy and fully equipped. The kitchen has everything you need and more. We had the best thanksgiving dinner. It wasn't too cold so we set out table out on the porch. Everyone had a great time.

WONDERFUL VIEWS

HOUSE WAS GREAT FOR OUR ANNIVERSARY GETAWAY. PLACE COULD HAVE A BETTER GRILL SITUATION AND SOME UPGRADED MATTRESSES. BEDS STILL HAD SPRING STYLE. OTHER THAN THAT, EVERYTHING WAS WONDERFUL.

More than expected

The photos made me think cabin was sitting right on creek but it was high above creek with nice stairway to creek. Beautiful scenery off deck. Quiet neighborhood very close to town but seemed far away from every thing!

We arrived at 4:30 and the place was still being cleaned. The lady cleaning was helpful but the house could use a good cleaning. The TVs were not working properly and the office sent someone to help the next day because it was after hours. The office staff was fantastic and took care of every problem. A big thank you to the staff. The beds were creepy but slept good and the house could use updating.
