A spotless, spacious, spectacular home literally in the clouds. I and every one of my guests who stayed there were very impressed. This property is on our shortlist of places that we have to visit in the future. In addition to this the check-in and check-out process was a breeze and the owners were always responsive when we had a question or concern. And the "cherry on top" was seeing a family of black bears passing through looking for their next meal. Thanks for a great stay.

Absolutely spectacular!

Th cabin was nothing short of spectacular. The log cabin boasts breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, making it an ideal spot for both relaxation and adventure. Each bedroom is private with its own bathroom, and the fully equipped kitchen made meal prep a breeze. The outdoor spaces, including the sundeck and balcony, were perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. I highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a serene mountain getaway.

Wish we had more time!

My family spent two nights in the cabin on our way back to Pennsylvania from Georgia. The view is amazing. I would have been happy just sitting and watching the sky change with the fireplace going all day. We did some hiking a Chimney Rock but otherwise enjoyed hanging out at the cabin. We arrived after dark, making it challenging to get up the mountain but the directions were very detailed and we made it!

Candace, the owner, answered all of my questions immediately before we even left for our stay. The cabin was very clean, well equipped, and very comfortable. All three beds were were comfy. Having master bedrooms with baths on three floors was wonderful. We could have enjoyed the outside amenities more. Absolutely beautiful views but never saw a bear! Close enough to Asheville but we enjoyed Black Mountain more.

Gorgeous View!

We came to Asheville to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary! This beautiful property is extremely peaceful and the cabin has a cozy living area with a fireplace. Since the temps were in the 40’s in the mornings, we sat by the fire with our morning coffee. We also enjoyed sitting on the back deck overlooking the mountains and the forest. We saw a rabbit, squirrels, and a family of deer 2 days in a row! What a treat! If you are looking to get away and needing some peace and tranquility, I highly recommend staying here. The owners were quick to answer our questions and very hospitable.
