Wow! This cabin well exceeded our expectations. It is clear that so much thought went into anticipating the needs of each guest and going above and beyond. Everything was so clean and beautiful. Also, everything was so well labeled we didn’t have to spend a lot of time figuring out where things were. The views were beyond amazing. We enjoyed hummingbirds and lightning bugs and beautiful birdsong as well. I cannot say enough good things about this property. Thank you for sharing it with us. We made some sweet memories here.

I've stayed in at least over 30 rental properties through the last 10 years and I want to say that this was by far my best stay. The view throughout the day is astonishing. We also saw a mom and baby black bear and was able to photograph ( from far of course). The place is kept very clean and stock with all essentials. The binocular was an extra bonus. Seeing the clouds moving through the day is awesome host and cleaning lady responded quickly to questions. I will find a way back to NC and will request to stay here again. Thank you for the great retreat able experience.

Beautiful, well-appointed and clean cabin. The view from the living room window was fantastic. We saw black bear and turkey in our yard. Quiet and minimal light pollution so star gazing was phenomenal. A wonderful cabin to return to each evening after a day of touring.
