CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE - HURRICANE HELENE

Thanks for the review Dusty. We certainly look forward to your return!!

Kathleen, Thanks for the review and we're excited that you had a wonderful stay. During this time of year, the porch is definitely an extended living space where you can eat, work, enjoy family, and relax. The sounds of the river also add a calming effect. We certainly hope you return at the next available opportunity!!!

Thanks for your comments and for your stay!! Yes, lots of good hiking possibilities within a very short drive from the cabin; plenty to explore in the area. We hope you will return to fully enjoy the Hickory Nut Gorge!!!

Yes. the sounds of the river can be the most soothing and relaxing part of the stay. Thanks and we look forward to your return.

Thanks Kris!! We tell everyone that the focal point of the cabin is the back porch and the river. You can literally feel any stress leave you body while you sit there. Of course there is so much to do in the area to occupy one's time but returning to the porch can be the perfect way to begin or end the day. We look forward to your return. Randy and Brenda

Thanks for your comments. We are very close to everything in the area and just a short drive to the bigger sights of Asheville. But, with the back porch and the river, you feel "miles away". We are glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return.

Thanks for this great review. We certainly do our best to provide a place that will not only accommodate our guests but one that will leave a lasting impression. As mentioned in our "about us" portion, this property belonged to my grandparents when I was younger and I spent most of my early years playing in or near the river. Our goal is to make it just as enjoyable to our guests. Part of this also is always being available to provide information or help. Many of our guests have never been to this part of the NC mountains so making them familiar with the area - sights, activities, restaurants, etc - eliminates a lot of the worry. You guys took very good care of the cabin while there so we eagerly await your return!!!

Thanks for the comments and the "confirmation" that we made good decisions with our remodeling efforts. We certainly look forward to your return!!

Thanks Cecilia, We're glad that you enjoyed your stay and got to explore our part of NC. Lots to see and do. We hope you will contact us for any future trips to the area. Randy and Brenda

The house and its proximity to the road has been that way for 100 years so very little we can do to change that. However, on the good side, the driveway between our house and neighbor is in the plan for improvement and will add at least one additional parking space for our house. and our guests. Thanks for your stay and we hope all of the positives about our house outweighed the parking issue.

Thanks for your comments!! The porch is our favorite part of the house as well. We spend the majority of our time (meals, work, relaxing) right there listening to the river. We want our guests to enjoy everything as well which is why we try to be very responsive and accurate when addressing questions. This was your first trip; we certainly hope it will not be your last and look forward to working with you again!!

Cindy, Thanks for the review!! Yes, the parking has been like this for well over 75 years. Once we complete all of the work on the property, there will be additional parking in the drive way between Carson's Cabin and our neighbor. However, we make full use of the space we've been given and two cars can easily fit in the front. We do hope you'll consider us again for another "Weekend Getaway!!!" Randy and Brenda

Thanks for your review!! We obviously love our house and do our best to make sure our guests feel that love and enjoy themselves while there. We hope to better utilize the driveway beside the house when all of our remodeling efforts are complete. When the work is done, we should be able to offer guests a minimum of a 1BR/1BA rental option OR a 4BR/2BA "whole house" option which would definitely put it in range with the larger properties. We also try to keep our rates slightly lower than all of our competition so that guests are getting the best BANG for their buck!! Finally, we feel that the back porch and back yard view is the JEWEL of our property. Very few rentals offer what we have at our price. We hope you enjoyed your stay enough to return and recommend us to family and friends. We look forward to seeing you on your next visit.
