Retreat in The Woods yet Close to Everything!

MeganRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We loved our stay! Ben gave clear instructions on how to find/access the property, was very responsive, and helpful. The house was spotless, comfortable, had everything you need, and the hot tub was a great perk in the cold winter. An added bonus: there is a waterfall to spot on your drive up to the house.

Mountain Shadows - On Stream - Hot Tub - Fireplace

CarolineRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This cabin was the perfect base camp for a week of biking, hiking, and trail running. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our own meals (but lots of options within a 20 minute drive when we didn't feel like cooking!). We enjoyed being able to bring our dog along with us, and he loved getting to sniff around in the woods by the house. We hope to come back!

Havilah Falls - Luxury Cabin w/Private Waterfall

KarenRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
It’s even better in person! I was specifically looking for a house for my waterfall-loving husband and his excited reaction when we saw the giant waterfall steps from the back door was everything. The house is beautiful and spacious and the deck, hot tub and fire pit that all let you stare at the waterfall are perfect. The house had everything we needed and it’s close enough to Sliding Rock (40 minutes) and Paradise Falls trails (7 minutes) that we had fun things to do nearby. We cooked meals at the house. Bring groceries with you when heading in! Nothing is nearby for purchase other than a general store (better for snacks). We absolutely loved our time and can’t believe a property like this exists.

Creekside family/pet friendly cabin.

SeanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We absolutely loved staying at this cabin near the river and close to town. It's about a 30 minute drive from Waynesville which is close enough for convenience but far enough away for peace and quiet. The area surrounding the cabin is stunning and private. Charles is an excellent host and the entire experience was well organized. We have absolutely nothing bad to say nor any recommendations for improvement. We would definitely stay there again 10/10

Seth and his team were truly amazing. We were in town to help with relief efforts from the flooding and Seth helped us from the first moment I reached out. His home is amazing, the pictures don't do it justice. Every amenity you could think of is included. I highly recommend this home!

Cabin in Willoughby Wood near Brevard NC

SharonRating, 5 stars4 months ago
The perfect place to get away from it all or do a lot. My furbaby and I went for a long weekend of relaxation, and this was the perfect place. Driving in I passed lots of trailhead signs for places like Hooker Falls and Triple Falls, plus a lake trail and others. Since my girl is getting up in years hiking was not an option this trip. We loved the gas fireplace which kept the cabin warm. The kitchen was very well equipped, could use a vegetable peeler. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was immaculate. I will stay here again when it's warmer with a hiking buddy. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

We loved this home. Offered so much to do rain or shine. Kids went swimming, played ping pong, and we loved the pool table. We used the canoe to fish also. So much hiking, kayaking in river and biking. Went to Oscar blues also. We have family here which is great but your home made this visit so easy. Thank you

The Cottage at Franklin Park, Brevard NC

EdithRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
It was immediately apparent that Robert's place was one of the good ones! It was a charming historic bungalow furnished and outfitted with care and thoughtfulness. Handsome antique furniture served us well, classic lamps and artwork lent elegance, comfortable furniture arranged to allow for easy gatherings. The kitchen lacked for nothing and the large antique wood plank table accomdated our extended family. Bedrooms featured comfortable beds and crisp linens as well as blinds on windows that opened and provided delightful cross breezes. The bathrooms were spotlessly clean and showers had seemingly endless hot water. We appreciated the handy laundry room. A back deck and patio provided safe haven for our bicycles as well as a barbecue grill! Mostly we enjoyed the comfortable screened porch . We spent every evening here enjoying the sounds of happy children at the neighborhood swimming pool as well as a spring downpour. We hope to return someday for the next family reunion.

Lakefront cabin getaway

LarryRating, 5 stars7 months ago
The Lake house was one of the quietest and most peaceful air b-and-b's we have stayed at. The new back deck is the highlight of the lake cabin. The rest of the cabin is fully equipped and functional, but we hardly left the back deck. With its fenced in area and gate was perfect for the dog. The kayaks and dock are a nice addition. It is located close to good dining at Micas restaurant and Whiteside brewery. We came for the hiking in Panthertown area. We will be back again.
The log cabin features a vibrant exterior with a steeply pitched roof and large windows, framed by lush greenery. A spacious wrap-around deck extends from the main level, offering outdoor seating and views of the surrounding trees and landscape.

Lakefront, Mountain View, Waterfall, 3B/3Bth

ElenaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We stayed at Lonnie’s place to celebrate our daughter’s 21st birthday. We are a family of 6, with teenagers of different ages. Lonnie’s place was clean, homey and felt like home. Great restaurants in the area - about 15 min drive in any direction. Place was a bit harder to find at night, but provided directions were perfect and we did not have any trouble at all. Grocery store is a short drive, made our life easier. The location is beautiful - the view of the lake is magical and surrounding area feels very safe. We used the house as a base for hiking trips -big variety of options 10 months or 40 min away. In 4 days we feel we just scratched the surface. Also close to kayaking, tubing and other water sports. Tv downstairs was easy to operate and wifi signal was great - I was able to log into zoom calls for work. Inside the house, the supplies in the kitchen are great: plenty of plates, glasses, cups and cutlery. Also many spices and condiments. Thank you - it was a great time!

Beautiful Cozy Mountain Retreat

NathanRating, 5 stars5 days ago
ms.sandy and her husband are the sweetest people ever, we missed check in by 4 hours so she was worried and made sure we were okay, upon arrival and her explaining everything to us she took the time to made sure we ate something and made us a smoothie just in case we didn’t. she has the most beautiful home and it’s exactly like the pictures. when you look over the balcony at night you see the most beautiful firefly’s, and wake up to the most brightest sunrises, you can even see the mountains in the back!! the room was so clean and spacious so we will definitely be back again and hopefully for longer!
