We rented this place with our kids (14, 10, 10) and loved it! The cabin itself is super-neat and comfortable. The owners have added a lot of interesting touches (vintage decorations, lots of porch sitting furniture, portable fire pit for the terrace, porch dining table, etc.). There is a smaller cabin next door that you could also rent if you had a large group needing a full kitchen. Very comfortable with extra blankets, towels, washer/dryer, etc. The kids loved the creek (walk down the access road) with teeny waterfall. Bring water shoes or old sneakers for kids to wade in the creek. We can't say enough good things about this place and its charm and comfort. The owners have gone out of their way to make staying here special. They may stop by and leave you fresh flowers or tell you more about how the cabin was moved, re-built, and decorated (which you will be curious about). Photos posted don't do it justice.
The cabin is only 15-20 minutes from downtown Brevard and 25 minutes from Sliding Rock and Mirror Falls. It's out in the country/mountains, but close enough for day trips. Stop by the Brevard Visitor Center to get maps of local waterfalls and other explorations. Key pickup/return was in downtown Brevard and was super fast (less than a minute).
Know before you go: There is a nice wet bar, but no kitchen. We cooked on the grill, toaster oven, and microwave just fine, but plan menus accordingly. The fridge is counter-height, so bring a cooler for food storage or plan accordingly if you plan to stay out here for many days without restocking. TV is via antenna, so bring DVDs if you need media. (RedBox machines at Walmart, Ingles). The last mile or so is a gravel road that is a little hilly and had a few (avoidable) ruts from a recent storm, so don't plan to drive your Lamborghini (fine for minivan or regular car).
