Welcome to Cabin Fever!

Cabin Fever is a beautiful, rustic, upscale log cabin with loads of recent updates, custom furniture, and more!

Gorgeous! Travel measured in minutes, not miles
If you're looking for a beautiful, roomy cabin with zero traffic, this is the perfect cabin. We loved our stay here but did not like the drive to and fro. Fortunately my husband adept in navigating steep, curvy roads and watchful of wildlife (saw bear, deer+++, raccoon). The cabin was gorgeous. Loved the beds and living room furniture. Great TVs and Wifi. Didn't get to use the hot tub but appreciated the privacy of its location. Not for you if you're looking for a place to use as a hub for local attraction (45 min from anything) but if you're wanting to be at peace with nature and to recharge, its perfect.

Cabin in the Woods
This cabin was clean and really nice. What we didn’t like was how far it was from anything. The drive way was very steep which made walking difficult. The kitchen utensils need to be updated as there was only a few forks. Overall the place was nice just very isolated.

You can hear the water rushing by somewhere close and we really enjoyed walking to find the awesome waterfalls! The porches with the swings and the hot tub were so relaxing. Loved this spot!

Directions to cottage need to be better
Overall very good other than main floor shower leaking into lower level bathroom after several uses. Judging from how the ceiling in the lower level bathroom this has been a problem for quite awhile.

Long weekend friends weekend!
Cabin Fever is a perfect place for a friends weekend away! It was remote and relaxing! We enjoyed the decks, the hot tub, all the TVs to watch racing all weekend and the hiking trail in the back yard! Definitely a remote location! Next time, we will bring all of our groceries with us so we do f have to go down the mountain throughout the trip, but we will definitely be back!!

Great Ski Vacay
Moms trip to the mountains with the kids- perfect cabin for this stay. Very private, cozy and well done cabin. Proximity to Beech Mountain was a plus for us. Well stocked kitchen made eating in a breeze. Really enjoyed the hot tub and fireplaces. Comfortable bedding. Most definitely recommend. Be aware you are a bit of a drive to the grocery so come up the mountain prepared.

We were not at the cabin much so we only utilized the hot tub twice, but it was very nice, and the cabin was the perfect size for a group of 10 people!

Extremely Dissatisfied
To say our group was dissatisfied would be a huge understatement. Let me begin with the positives to be fair. The cabin is very large and allows for a large group to spread out. The cabin is aesthetically pleasing. Bunk room is perfect for kids. Now for the cons. The road that leads to the cabin is a private gravel road. When we arrived it was almost totally iced over. All three vehicles spun out multiple times. One of the vehicles almost slid off the road and did go on three wheels. To be honest it was terrifying and god forbid you slide off the road because it’s a huge drop off. This should be in bold when renting this cabin. You absolutely need 4 wheel drive or snow chains. There is no cellular coverage at or on the private road leading to the property. If you get stuck which seems inevitable you will have to walk a significant distance to knock on a door for help. There was a leak downstairs in the property. There is another review that mentioned this so we assumed the property manager would have taken care of it. We were wrong. If you take a shower on main floor it leaks into bathroom downstairs. When we arrived the hot tub was half empty and the top was off. The water was ice cold and had a bunch of gunk in it. We had to refill and heat. Not the end of the world but just seemed cheap. They basically have bunny ears tv channel options. Your run of the mill local channels. No cable. This is not specified on the rental listing. Again not a deal killer but you would expect basic cable in a property of this level. Their WiFi was spotty and unreliable. This was a big issue considering they didn’t have any real tv options. They also say they have a gas grill which is a lie. They have a cheap charcoal grill. When I say cheap it’s the type of grill you would use a few times and replace. We didn’t want to use it but it further emphasizes my point. I called and speak to someone regarding some of the issues we were having and they said they would have a manager contact me. That never happened. Carolina Cabin Rentals isn’t interested in being forthcoming. They are interested in getting your money.

Nice for smaller families
Overall this is a nice property. We were fortunate it was available last minute when our other rental was canceled due to a water leak. We were a party of 7. The layout had the bunk room on the 3rd floor, two queens with shared bathroom on main floor and master on the bottom. That worked well for us, but you can hear everything in all the bedrooms through the closets. Sounds weird, but you can because of the cracks in the seams of the walls. There is not a lot of space on the main floor. All of the beds were very comfortable which was very nice! There are two sets of stairs and the bottom ones are slippery - we had three falls (adults), so consider this if you have small children. There is no dining area for a large party which was very disappointing for us. Although the kitchen has plenty of plates and eating utensils, the cooking pans were warped and the cooking utensils were cheap and minimal. It was very difficult to cook for so many people without the proper pots/pans and kitchen tools. There is a coffee pot, not a keurig as another review said. It would be helpful for the description of the property be accurate. We had to eat on the couch downstairs or in the main living area if we wanted to eat in the same room. The driveway and road to get to this house is tricky and steep - would recommend appropriate tires or AWD in the winter. Is scary for someone not use to mnt roads. The house is very dark on the inside...because it's in the woods. The property mngr needs to verify the lights are all working as many in the kitchen were out. When we arrived we had to pick up garbage that had been spread by a bear (garbage had not been picked up from previous tenant, again a prop mngr issue)...and there were NO garbage lid tie downs to help prevent bear from getting in to the garbage. There are bear trash cans that would be beneficial for this property. It's a secluded, quiet location which is nice but again, it's in the woods so there is no view. Our teens enjoyed hiking down to the waterfall. The swing on the porch is a nice touch and where I enjoyed my coffee every morning. It's only about a 12 min drive to Beech Mnt Rst which was great for us. Hot tub was a nice amenity as well. FYI - ATT does not get good service up here, so you can't count on GPS on the mountain.

Christmas Eve check in
We checked in Christmas Eve. The house was extremely dirty. The floors didn’t look like they had been vacuumed or mopped in a long time. The towels smelled like cigarettes and the sheets had hair in them. It was a great house if it was cleaned properly. However, the management company was very kind and did refund us the cleaning fee but we would have loved a clean house instead.
