Beautiful well appointed cabin

Beautiful cabin is nestled in a quiet neighborhood just minutes from everything. Home is comfortable and well appointed with every little detail for a comfortable weekend. Beds are comfortable, wifi is strong and floor plan is perfect for a family or two couples. We loved the cozy fireplace. Hosts were so kind by leaving is a bottle of wine and super responsive over text. Have shared the listing link with a few friends. Already planning our next trip!

Peaceful retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. It is so quiet and peaceful that you feel far away from everything yet it is within 5 minutes of restaurants, shops and parks. It was very clean and our bed was super comfortable. We loved hanging out on the porches and listening to the sounds of nature. We can't wait to return!

Perfect Setting

This home is ideal with all the amenities anyone could want.The home is settled among the trees and the privacy is wonderful eventhough it is in a conveniently located neighborhood. The unique architectural features throughout the home and the large fireplace are very cozy . It is convenient to the Flat Rock Playhouse which is a must do along with a visit to Carl Sandburg's home. I highly recommend this home

Log "tree" house

Beautiful log construction, well appointed, home with great open decks and screened porches. Beautiful sitting room with vaulted ceiling. Close to provisioning points, Hendersonville, wineries, everything you want. Great host. Because of the backyard drop off, you're looking into the trees and birds, like a treehouse. Luxurious one.
