Perfect Getaway with Amazing Views
My family had an amazing time soaking in a beautiful view in a spacious, comfortable cabin. We couldn’t get over the sunrises and sunsets while enjoying all the area has to offer. Plenty of room and all the amenities you need to recharge and feel like you’re sitting on the sky!

Fantastic Stay
Absolutely incredible views. Pictures don’t do it justice. Cabin was clean, well furnished and our kids really enjoyed all of the board games and the downstairs game room was a hit. Drive in and out of town (Old Fort/Black Mountain) was around 20/30 minutes, but didn’t bother us at all given all of the beautiful scenery and wildlife along the way. Owners were great hosts and we highly recommend

Family Christmas
The stunning views make this home amazing. The sunrise was our favorite! And you can watch the sun set from the balcony off the kitchen. Getting there can be challenging for those that aren’t used to the windy and steep mountain rosds. Definitely recommend going to the store for your food/drinks before you climb to the top of the mountain where there is plenty of parking for you and your guests. They have all the pots, pans, cooking sheets and utensils you need. There’s plenty of space for everyone to relax, eat, sleep, or play games inside or out. Our family truly enjoyed the experience and couldn’t stop talking about it. We all loved the beautiful fireplace even though the heating system worked well and we didn’t need it, we still used it. The owners were great and made the directions very clear. They even gave recommendations for hiking spots and places to see water falls. Would recommend this family get away to our friends!

Awesome location with breathtaking view
My husband and I really enjoyed the stay here. We wanted a relaxing week away from the heat in Texas and an experience in spending time in the mountains. This home is located on the top of a mountain with breathtaking view. We felt like we were in a different world being so closed to the nature. The proximity to Asheville and national parks was a plus as we explored the surrounding area. We had a great time and will definitely return. Jack and Candace are very responsive and kind. They shared a great list of things to do in the area. They are great hosts.

Weekend getaway
Great cabin! The drive up was a bit nerve-wrecking but you couldn’t beat the view once you got up to the house! Not quite as updated as some other homes we’ve stayed in, but it was cozy and had everything we needed, it even included a high chair which was an unexpected plus! Would definitely stay again if in the area!
