Previous reviews enhanced our decision to reserve this property and we were not disappointed. The décor added to the enjoyment of the cabin, and views!! It was all we anticipated and more. The hot tub, WIFI, gas fire logs, what more could you ask. AND, it was hard to leave. The owners were super. We liked the location and all the different directions we could venture out to. Can just imagine being there in the fall! Private and very secure.

Owner's Response: We loved being able to share the cabin with you and we look forward to you coming in the fall, it is beautiful up there at that time of year. Thank you for taking such good care of the house!

Do not second guess this home. It is more beautiful than the pictures. The home continues to please as the days go on, from the cookware to the dishes to the hot tub to the views! Make sure you pick up your staples at the Food Lion before you head to the house and you wont have to leave the gated community the whole time you're there. They have hiking and a fishing pond, or you can just walk around the developement. The only negative feedback I can provide is that you won't want to leave when your vacation is over. Oh, and the owners are awesome!! We will be back next year if this home is still offered for rent.

Wonderful place to stay!

Cabin was beautiful! Nicely decorated with a comfortable feel throughout the house. Perfect for us, 2 couples. We had our own sides of the cabin and spent most of our time in the open living area by the fire place. Hot tub was amazing at night when the temps dropped. Feels like you are away from it all. Sugar, Beech and other Ski options not too far of a drive. The views from the cabin are unbelievable! Saw a shooting star on a clear night! Pictures don't do it justice! Must see in person. We will be back next year!

My stay was absolutely wonderful. The view is unbelievable and the cabin is simply georgeous. So neat, clean and relaxing. Between the HI DEF TV and the surrond sound, I watched sports, cooked on the grill and sat in the hot tub like I owned the place. Its so peaceful but close enough to some major attractions in case I wanted to get out and explore. They are putting in a beautiful lake that will definitely be great addition to an already awesome place. Im looking on the calender now in order to book another weekend. Thanks Guys!!!!!

Upon arrival at the cabin, we had to stand outside and marvel the beauty all around us. The cabin is picture perfect from the outside. Once we opened the door and stepped inside, I couldn't believe how beautiful the cabin was decorated. It was absolutely perfect. Everything I saw on the listing is how the cabin looked only more beautiful. The cabin was very clean and maintained. Everything we needed to cook with was there, the kitchen and actually the whole cabin has all the comforts of home and then some. I would recommend this cabin rental to everyone as you won't be disappointed. If I am ever fortunate enough to own a cabin, it would be one just like this one. The owners were very friendly and if you need anything, all you have to do is call. It is located in a beautiful area with beautiful views. Make sure you ride around the area as it is gorgeous. Thank you for letting us share your home. It is something we will never forget. PS - make sure you bring your camera as there are so many pictures to take!
