Beautiful deck and view

The place was cute and loved sitting on the deck looking at the view. The directions were hard to follow and tough on the gravel narrow road. The twin beds were very squeaky and were just a foam pad not mattresses. The place was a nice mountain cabin to relax in

Cute Cabin!

This was a lovely cabin on Black Mountain! It was very clean upon arrival with all the beds made (even the pull out) which was helpful. The view off the deck was worth the tense drive up the 0.9 mile drive up the gravel road. While a sedan did make it up the driveway, I would highly recommend four wheel drive or at a minimum a car with higher clearance. Overall this was a great stay and only 25 mins from Asheville! We felt safe the entire time which was important to us. I would recommend this cabin to those traveling to the Asheville area. Thank you for sharing your slice of mountain heaven with us!
