Amazing views!
This cabin was comfortable and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay for a few days. The weather was chilly, so spent time sitting inside doing puzzles and playing board games while enjoying the beautiful view of the mountains.

Everything we needed and then some
Our family of four spent thanksgiving week here and the house (kitchen especially) met our needs completely. I cooked our traditional holiday meal here and the kitchen had all of the “stuff” necessary! The views are amazing - ideal for a restful, peaceful getaway. We’d love to come back when all the foliage is in bloom.

Perfect cabin, exactly what we expected! Awesome view and the rental company was fantastic. The only complaint was the water pressure in the kitchen sink made it extremely difficult to wash dishes. But overall this was amazing and I would definitely come again.

I still dream about the cabin. For sure we’re going back there. The quiet, peace and calm was everything that we needed, Our dog just loved running up and down the stairs and chasing the squirrels off the deck. The cabin was five stars and the management company five stars + and I’m not an easy one to please.

Not worth the money
Of all the cabins we looked at in the Asheville area, this was one of the pricier options. For the money, we were expecting more, including some basics regardless of cost. We did not use the basement level at all so it’s not included in the review. Pros: Great cabin, very spacious, open, amazing view. Cons: Cheap towels Cheap sheets Cheap paper towels Beds were ridiculously uncomfortable and noisy. The mattresses for both bedrooms and pillows upstairs were a joke. The main level bathroom had one bar of soap, no hand soap bottle. Luckily we had our daughter’s body wash. The kitchen and upstairs had different hand soaps on the cheaper end. Incredibly minor gripe but combined with everything else and how much we paid, just detracted from the experience. Super cheap paper towels. One dishwasher pod provided. What if we had more people (it was just three of us) or cooked more? We couldn’t run the dishwasher upon check-out. No sponge, just Brillo pads. The kitchen is not “well-equipped” per listing given all of the above. The main living room couch looked nice but was ultimately uncomfortable. Not very supportive and I was leaning one way or another. The TV remote was awful. They had DirectTV but no ESPN (who does that?). Luckily I had youtubetv and was able to cast to the TV but it was super slow. There was a sound bar but it would turn off if you paused for too long. Just a weird setup. Out of the three sinks we used, for two of them, hot water was in one direction, and for the third, hot was in the opposite direction. Super confusing/frustrating weekend trying to wash your hands and such. The kitchen sink at least had labels, but they were super tacky, just from a label maker and haphazardly placed. Some of the outdoor furniture have seen much, much better days. I was hesitant to sit on them and wondered if they were safe to use, with potential paint chips/rust. I think they were fine ultimately but not pleasant to look at. The view is great, however, you cannot see sunrise or sunset. The main patio faces northwest but you are blocked by trees on either side. The way everything is angled, you also don’t get a ton of sun on the back patio. Maybe half of it half the day. Just friendly FYI. Overall, we were expecting a lot more for the money and will not be coming back here. Again, great overall look and feel, spacious, great view, just not worth the money for us.

July 4th Mountain Vacation
The property and cabin are very lovely. The view from the back porch was breathtaking and my family enjoyed being so close to both the Lake Lure/Chimney Rock area as well as Asheville. The cabin was well stocked and the layout/space was perfect for my family. The kids loved playing in the open space living area and the porches. The upstairs queen bed is really loud and uncomfortable though (other reviewers mention this as well). Otherwise, near perfect place for a vacation!

Nice stay
Had a great time at this cabin. Kitchen is stocked with everything needed to prepare meals. Plenty of towels and blankets. Internet and TV worked great. Saw a black bear in the driveway one night! That was exciting! Lots of board games and an Xbox. There is also corn hole, an air hockey table, & ping pong table in the detached garage. Beautiful views of the mountains from the porches. Also, there are hiking trails in the gated community with gorgeous waterfalls. Definitely worth checking out. Only complaints were, the main level bed was very uncomfortable. The upstairs bed is very noisy , can hear the loud squeaking every time someone moves on it. The roads to get to the cabin are very narrow and VERY steep. There is no way you could safely make it up those inclines with snow and ice on the roads. It takes about an hour to drive to Asheville. But the good out weighs the bad with this cabin. (But only in the warmer months).

What a cabin!
Do not rent this cabin if you don't have all wheel drive! I was not prepared for the trek up the mountain, but we were rewarded with a fantastic view once we walked into the cabin. The deck has a spectacular view and we spent as much time as possible on the deck enjoying it. The cabin is spacious and clean. The beds are comfy the layout was perfect for me, my husband, and our dog. The rental company was easy to deal with and they answered any and all questions I had. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it!

Beautiful mountain top spacious cabin
We loved our stay here.... especially the amazing view and cooler evenings. We would definitely rent it again. Very impressed with how clean it is. It is a bit of a winding mountain drive to go anywhere but the trade off is how peaceful it is. One improvement idea- the queen bed squeaks badly whenever someone rolls over and could use a new mattress.

Spectacular View
Renting this property went seamlessly. Greybeard Realty handled the details and gave us all the information we needed. The house was beautiful and comfortable for our family and we never got tired of the beautiful view of the mountains. Asheville and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was an easy drive and had lots to do.
