My husband and I had a wonderful getaway. The cabin and property were wonderful. Very clean and we loved the pond, outdoor fireplace and hot tub! Location was perfect for day trips to go hiking to see all the beautiful waterfalls. It was wonderful to be able to bring our dog so she could join us on the hikes. The owners were very helpful with any questions we had. I highly recommend.
The cabin was beautiful, well equipped and smelled great. We loved the hammocks and the outdoor fireplace next to the stream and pond. It was everything we were hoping it would be! You will not be disappointed with this cabin rental.

Great getaway
Great property. Had everything I needed. Hot tub was awesome...Fireplace and feeding the trout in the pond was great. Did some hiking around the property...so quiet and peaceful taking a walk in the woods. Hosts were great to communicate with. Very helpful. Cabin was clean, everything worked...nice appliances...once I figured out the wi-fi setting on my phone it worked great..internet connection was quick...May sound a little strange, but the towels were big and fluffy. I love good towels...short drive to Hendersonville, Brevard, Dupont state forest. Great hide away...If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the world, you should come here. Highly recommended...One of the best places I have stayed at. 5 days/nights Definitely a place to come back to.Tom
This location is perfect for families wanting to experience DuPont State Forest or Pisgah Forest along with Brevard but wanting a quiet, secluded place to back to after. Property was clean and well appointed!
We happened to plan our trip for right after Hurricane Helene when the parks were closed, but this property really made up for it! It is as good or better than the pictures, with short hikes and an awesome outdoor fireplace. Wonderful hosts, great for kids, pet friendly - 5 stars.
Perfect spot for a few days away after Christmas. Clean, spacious, and well appointed cabin!
Close to great hiking and all the area has to offer.
Easy check in, great communication with the owner, and no problems getting there.
Already planning a trip back in the summer so we can enjoy a different season worth of fun!
A really lovely, peaceful place. Well-stocked. Super gracious owner/hosts. The outdoor setting is great - places to relax, enjoy the pond, feed the fish, soak in the hot tub, hike, and more. Just the best. We will return for sure.
I can't say enough about our stay here! Absolutely gorgeous home, had everything we needed, super clean and located within 25 minutes of all the trails we wanted to hike. Our first day we hiked Triple Falls and had lunch at Square Root (pet friendly too). Day 2 was Looking Glass Trailhead, grilled steaks and s'mores by the outdoor fireplace. The hot tub was perfect for sore muscles at the end of the day. We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful time at Peaceful Getaway! The cabin and property are so beautiful and truly special. There is so much to do right on property! We enjoyed hiking the trails, feeding the fish, roasting marshmallows at night, and our kids absolutely loved the rope swing! The cabin was very clean, well organized, and had everything we needed. Robert and Stefanie were delightful to work with and very helpful. We made wonderful memories at Peaceful Getaway and can’t wait to return!

Truly a peaceful getaway!
This cabin lives up to its name. The location is 15-20 minutes driving distance to town. It is tucked away in the trees gently on the mountain. The owners are close and responsive. Any needs are met within less than 1 hour. You have a large covered well lit fire pit pavilion. A gas stove fireplace in the living room. The cabin is well maintained and has modern appliances. A spacious modern bathroom. An easy to access and use hot tub. A great place to disconnect and rejuvenate. I have recommended to friends and family.
This was such a wonderful few days at the cabin! A stress free few days with my son before school returns and time with my mom. Never did we feel “too remote” or unsettled being just women. With a 14 year old, we also couldn’t be too far from a grocery store and town (bottomless pit). VERY ACCESSIBLE! 15-20 mins from anything we needed (hiking, biking, food). We were 15 mins from DuPont Forest for the day. The cabin is very tidy and clean, and my mother is a germaphobe! No animal smell at all- since this is a dog friendly spot. All the details have been thought out for you. The hot tub was SUPER CLEAN. No sand or grit or mildew. I’m always a little weary of public tubs. We did some fishing and had fresh trout dinner over the campfire with lemon— delish! Taught my son how to clean a fish. We made lots of memories and already planning our return!
Wish we didn’t have to leave- so glad we found this charming spot! We will be seeing you soon!!
Place was fantastic. A little tough to find. Absolutely suggest arriving before sundown but worth it. Property is peaceful and gorgeous, just as advertised.
Very nice, clean, well appointed cabin. Very secluded quiet location that was just what we were looking for. Would definitely consider visiting peaceful getaway again in the future!!
This is an incredible property, in a terrific location, with fantastic hosts. Robert and Stefanie were outstanding in making sure we enjoyed our stay. Our vacation was even better than we imagined.
‘Peaceful Getaway’ was just as described and the perfect little getaway we all needed. The owners were super helpful and willing to answer any questions we had. We will definitely be back!
This property is adorable! The house is beautifully updated and well stocked with everything we needed for a great family weekend. It sits on beautiful land with a perfect spot for an evening fire and s’mores. We hiked in nearby DuPont National Forest so the location was perfect too! We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful spot
I spent a week there with my daughters. The cabin was beautiful, everything was as promised, and the location was a short ride from our favorite hikes, natural water slides and camping/fishing spots. I definitely recommend.
