Great Cabin!
Amazing views! As rustic as you might expect with a cabin that’s 100 years old but with well appointed kitchen and bathrooms. We were fine without A/C and we went in July. Actually very cool at night. We loved everything about this place!

Spacious cabin with nice sleeping quarters
This is a very nice cabin! We enjoyed our stay here. The cabin is spacious with large rooms. The kitchen is fully stocked. Three king bedrooms are great for adult children and their companions. The decor is charming and cozy. The downsides are the lack of A/C, water bugs in lower level, lack of screens in some windows, and flying insects able to get in around others. The firepit was unusable do to the condition of the grounds and there were spider webs in many areas of the decks. I would suggest a full trim of the trees and plants surrounding the cabin and powerwash of the decks, stairs and exterior wood. The gas grill brush and pummace needs to be thrown out and replaced.

Well-appointed, rustic cabin with spectacular views
The property has unique architectural features that made our stay very enjoyable. The house is a combination of 2 authentic log cabins, with a large stone fireplace, connected to 3 modern bedroom/bathroom suites with king-size beds. The decks on the back of the house feature spectacular views of the Pisgah National Forest north of Asheville, NC.

Nice secluded area in the woods
Nice secluded cabin. Able to disconnect and relax. Limited cell signal which was great, but did have wifi available. Close to skiing and hiking which was nice. The pictures make it look bigger but still comfortable and big enough for multiple people.

Fabulous views and a delightful place to stay
This house was lovely! Anyone that lives in the forest knows that there are some parts you get used to. Spider webs are pretty common, and on occasion bugs come in to get out of the cold or hot. :). The kitchen in this house was a delight. The view was fabulous 💜 and it was well stocked (I forgot the sugar for the coffee!). The stove worked well. The microwave ran many cups of tea and hot chocolate with zero problems. The towels in the bathroom were soft and fuzzy and there were several. I have a cranky back. The beds were super comfy and I had no problems sleeping through the night. The ability to gaze up at the Milky Way was definitely a highlight of the trip.

The drive was worth the beauty
The drive was worth the beauty. The only complaint, my friends and I have, was the steep driveway, although it’s drivable and short lived which levels off quickly. It is worth the experience living in an old 100+ cabin which screams with the great respect to the former owners that labored with blood, sweat and tears. The charms, that we experienced, are the different levels of balconies, the mountains views which takes your breath away, especially at night where you watch the clouds rolling across the peaks and down through the valley. Got to include the stream running across the property with it’s trickling sound and deer crossing the yard, but the silence gives your heart rest from the city life, that was a gift. P.S. Thank you for the opportunity and I hope others will experience greater joy as much as we did. Thank you, Pat Nastasi, Kathy Seitz and Jodie Lee.
