If you’re looking for privacy this is it!Very secluded narrow mountain roads better be good driver , kitchen well stocked and loved the gas stove. Hot tub was a plus as well as fireplace that was well stocked with plenty of firewood
We absolutely loved our stay at Mammy's Cabin!!! This was such a great place to relax, unplug and enjoy the nature surrounding us. The adventure starts with the road up to the cabin, which was so fun to drive in our Jeep! If you're looking for the perfect "cabin in the woods" vibe, THIS IS IT.
This was exactly the place we were looking for! Perfect for two, but could have accommodated another two guests. Love that it is pet friendly! The views were incredible and it was so quiet and serene. Host was very responsive and helpful!!

was absolutely beautiful. I wanted to be secluded and away from the world and that’s exactly what this place gave me. It has a beautiful history and the place is absolutely breathtaking the mountains are gorgeous and the hot tub was perfect. The drive up is a little scary in a car (I was in a Nissan Sentra) and had no issues though but going down is a lot easier lol. It’s a beautiful place I loved it hope to stay again.
Mammy’s Cabin was perfect for a long weekend away from the city. The cabin is rich in history and bursting with charm! We loved reading the story of how Mammy’s Cabin came to be- and finding our own connections along the way! The kitchen is well stocked, bed is comfy, and the views are spectacular! The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. We enjoyed cooking, local restaurants, and nearby hikes! It was a great weekend and we hope to be back!
With a very busy life and two boys at home, my husband and I needed this wonderful quiet getaway for our 10 anniversary. It was so cozy and comfortable. We loved every minute.
We had a wonderful stay at this quaint cabin at the top of a mountain! It was clean and had everything we needed. The view from the back deck is amazing!
Mammy's was wonderful. It was everything it said it was going to be and more. We loved being secluded and close to different towns as well. We can't wait to come back and stay again.
Cabin was just what we craved. Quiet, nature, fireplace, proximity to hiking trails and…well who doesn’t love an outdoor hot tub! Glad we got there first time before dark and having 4-wheel drive while not completely necessary sure made the drives up & down more fun.
I cannot say enough about this little cabin! It is so peaceful and cozy. You have everything you need and even little notes to explain things you might not know. The cabin is small but just enough room. This history is very interesting as well.
There is much to see in the area. I love waterfalls so this was the perfect place to find them. So many in the vicinity to see. Highlands is a nice little town not too far.
Take the advice of the other reviews and arrive before dark. The road up to the cabin is not that bad but I wouldn't want to do it at night, at least the first time.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I love Mammy's and look forward to a time where I will go back!
We were in nees of a relaxing stress free vacation. This was it. Lovely place. Fireplace that we used every night. Awesome jacuzzi that we used multiple times. Cant wait to go back.
Nestled on the very top of the mountain- this truly is a rustic gem. If you are looking for tvs and an easy in and out- this is not the place. However, if you are interested in unplugging, spending time in the hot tup soaking in the view and playing board games by the fire- this is the place. We had a wonderful time.
We had a wonderful time sitting on the ridge of our mountain sometimes completely obscured in the clouds. We enjoyed a cozy fire every day. The hot tub was a great way to get each day started. Can’t wait to go back to Mammy’s Cabin!
This cabin is the perfect place to escape to. It was freezing cold out but warm and comfortable inside. Sleeping in the loft listening to the rain on the metal roof put me to sleep in a second. The view was incredible. It's a bit of a hike up the mountain but worth the drive. I believe the elevation is about 4000 feet. As long as you use a low gear and go slow it's a beautiful drive up. Thank you for sharing.
We enjoyed the weekend so much! Such a beautiful cabin tucked into the woods up on the mountain with a gorgeous view. We could sit out on the porch and enjoy the quiet. Loved the hot tub on the deck! I would sit out in the morning with coffee and a hummingbird would come to visit. We visited The Pines Recreational area at Lake Glenville one day and hiked to High Falls, only about 30 min away. We had dinner one evening in Highlands at the Rainforest Bar and Grill which had great Mexican food and drinks. I definitely want to come back!
We stayed a week and loved it. A few things to note. Its a log cabin at the end of a winding road 4K feet up in the highlands. Yeah we had garbage piling up a bit towards the end and had a dead mouse one day.
IT DOES NOT MATTER.
Its a cabin at 4K feet with a hot tub and views off the back as well as walking distance in the other direction.
I'd buy it if I could.
