This place was great! A beautiful drive up to a lovely quiet home well up on the mountain. The place was excellently stocked with everything our family wanted for the stay. The creek by the cabin was espeically popular with the kids. A great getaway spot and an easy place to rest. Also had good access to some local mountain attractions and destinations.Host was pleasant and easy to work with, and it's obvious they think about what people would want for their stay and make sure to have things planned/provided/available.

We had a great time. The property was in a nice location and secluded from other houses. We saw a lot of wildlife on our way in & out of town. Downstairs was a hit for the kids. Definitely would go here again.

Quiet Mountain Retreat

I just stayed here with my wife, our dogs, and some close friends for Thanksgiving. We all live far away from our families, so we were fortunate enough to be able to stay here and celebrate the holiday together. Overall we were very impressed with the property, location, amenities, and price. We would be happy to stay here again in the future and will consider it first on the next trip to the mountains.

Tranquility and Peace

This location was a little hard to get to but, once you got there it was worth the trip. The house was everything that we were hoping for. The stream outside was so soothing to listen to. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone who wants to get away for some peace an quiet.

Tumbling water

Fabulous place on the edge of the woods, with a mountain stream, at a remote location. Staring into the woods from the back porch while listening to the water was pure bliss for our long stay at Hawks Nest. Comfortable bed and well-stocked kitchen sweetened the deal! A perfect vacation spot for my wife, our traveling cat, and me.

Wonderful Mountain Getaway!

We had such a great time in this beautiful cabin nestled in mountains. Very well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Fabulous amenities. Everyone was so comfortable and entertained right there at the cabin with plenty to do on site. The Hot Tub and game room kept us entertained. Spotted lots wildlife, including deer and a flock of turkeys. Such beautiful mountain views. Everyone had a great time and we all hated to leave.

Peaceful Getaway

We had a wonderful family trip and the beautiful Hawksnest, from the fun game room for the kids to enjoy to the quiet porches to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Great communication with our hostess, who was kind enough to mail a forgotten electronic our 7 year old left behind. Thank you.forescus.bmouus.escen toy

This was an amazing home/cabin in the woods. Such a special weekend with the family making lasting memories. The sound of the creek right in the backyard, and we got to see bears on the drive up the mountain! I would absolutely come back and stay here again. Annie was a great host and very responsive. FYI - Google Maps is still saying NC 197 north is closed. It was open as of 5/31 when we got to the cabin and a very nice drive up to Burnsville.

Christmas in a snowy cabin.

The owners were wonderful. They had a tree up and lights in the porches. Everything was so festive without being overdone. We had a lovely time in your beautiful cabin with the little creek out back. Wildlife too with 8 to 10 inches of snow it was absolutely wonderful. The kitchen was well equipped. We had everything we needed to cook with for the holiday. Thank you
