The cabin was clean and spacious. The beds were comfortable. We didn’t cook, but it has a big, well stocked kitchen. There are decks on three sides with one screened in section. It is conveniently located within approximately 5 miles of shopping and dining. The turn in for the driveway is confusing, but gets easier with practice. My only negative feedback is about the host Grant. His first email response was friendly and helpful. Later I reached out to him about the cancellation policy because of possible flight problems. He told me there would be no refund because we were too close to the date (which I totally understood), but he added I could find that information on the website like I was bothering him with my email. My impression of Grant was confirmed when I realized I left a public library book at the property. I reached out to Grant to see if he could mail it back to me in Mississippi. His response was that there would be a 25 “retrieval” fee plus shipping, handling and insurance charges so I would probably be better off paying for the book. My conclusion is that the property is great, but if you’re looking for a friendly, helpful host you might want to look elsewhere.

A Great Vacation Spot!The cabin was very accommodating and fit our needs perfectly. Having a fireplace to warm us up in the evenings was a beautiful touch for my grandchildren. The location was perfect for going downtown, visiting the Arboretum, and heading to the various overlooks. While traveling about, we even saw some bears!

We have stayed at this property several times before and keep returning! It could use some new towels however; not quite enough for 4 ladies and they had a weird odor! But the addition of gas logs was great!

This was a lovely, clean and well furnished home in the woods very close to downtown Asheville. The decor was well done and welcoming. The deck offers beautiful views. Some people mentioned a steep driveway. We had 2 full size large SUVs and had no difficulty with getting to the home or with parking. Please don't let this prevent you from staying in this lovely spot. We are three couples who enjoy a fall weekend in the Carolinas each year and this was the perfect spot. Thanks Josh!

Beautiful view from deck and great room. Bedrooms nice. Pretty steep driveway but managed in a minivan no problem. Only issues were that pots and pans are stored in drawer under the oven and the drawer was very dirty with bits of old food and grease. Guests shouldn't have to wash dishes before using them. Cupboards had plenty of room. Why not store pots/pans there? Also, the gas grill was very dirty, and we had to scrub clean before using. In addition, it was a very small/cheap grill for house this size. Overall stay was positive!

The house was wonderful. It was immaculate. The kitchen was fantastic. It was located near things we wanted to do. It was delightful sitting on the porch. The only problem was the road to get in and the parking. We are in our 80s and found turning the car around on the steep gravel road with the cliff on one side very difficult. Fortunately, our granddaughter came to stay with us. We used her car. Unfortunately, she had to leave a day early so we left when she did.

The property exceeded our expectations. The view is beautiful and we absolutely loved the deck. We even saw bears at a safe distance. The property has everything you could possibly need. We were so impressed with the cleanliness and the very nice furnishings. We went to the Grove Park Inn for dinner one night which was amazing and only 10 minutes away. You can also make in to downtown in 10 minutes. Probably my favorite thing about the property is the elevated deck. It’s a beautiful place for sunrise and sunset. And it is up in the trees so I didn’t worry about the bears. We will definitely come back.
