This is also a great time to enjoy the beauty of the nearby parks and the Blue Ridge Parkway. If you like zip lining, water sports, hiking, and other warm weather fun, Summer is ideal for all these activities. You can also simply lounge in one of the log chairs and witness some of the most spectacular sunsets you'll ever see. The fall is when Mother Nature displays her most amazing display of colors.

Great cabin with amazing views
We enjoyed our stay in this clean, welcoming cabin. The kitchen and great room were wonderful and well-stocked. Having three sleeping areas, one bedroom on each level, was a bit tricky for our family. The sunset views over the mountains and valley were stunning! Would recommend and would definitely return!

Peaceful & Private!
Michael's place was clean and comfortable for our family of 6 (four adult kids and a plus one). We enjoyed venturing out from there to Catawba Falls (beautiful and very close by!) and driving over to Mt. Mitchell. We also enjoyed the fire pit at the cabin, star gazing and board games around the table. Downstairs was a great place for the kids to catch up while those upstairs turned in.

Exceptional Cabin & Host
We recently stayed at this amazing cabin and had an incredible experience! The location is fantastic, providing easy access to local attractions while still feeling secluded and peaceful. The cabin itself is beautiful and very well-maintained, clearly showing that the host takes great care to ensure everything is top-notch. One thing we've noticed right away is how clean this place is. We stayed in several cabins and this one was the cleanest. The host (Michael) was exceptionally attentive and communicative throughout our stay, always ready to help with any questions or needs we had. This level of service made our stay even more enjoyable and stress-free. We will definitely be returning to this wonderful cabin the next time we’re in the area. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-cared-for place to stay. Thank you so much!

SPECTACULAR
We enjoyed this beautiful venue in God's country in May 2024! The driveway is steep and worth the trip to the top of the mountain. Once there, the air is clean and refreshing. The sunshine shows so many different aspects of the Great Smokey Mountains as the cloud shapes drift over the valley below. The view is breathtaking. This lovely cabin has absolutely everything necessary for a elegant escape from the city. We definitely plan to rent again!!!
