This is off the beaten path so be prepared and stock up on snacks/food before you get there. I stayed in Pisgah and the room was very spacious, ridiculously clean (cleaner than many of the nice chain hotels I have stayed at), and super cute. It came with a white noise machine that was needed as you can hear your neighbors (I heard mine snoring). There is parking right next to the cabin. WiFi worked great. The biggest *complaint* was I never saw the resident dogs. I was looking forward to petting them!

Great place to stay

I can’t say enough great things about this place. The attention to detail is noticed. I don’t normally write reviews but I feel like this place deserves that. Check in super easy, my room was ready early, everything seems new and clean and it’s a beautiful property.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this lodge. The room was clean and had the basic amenities of a hotel. It was nice that we could bring mugs and plates from the main lodge back to our room. I also really liked the trash and recycle containers in our room. We had a beautiful view of the mountains. I would definitely recommend the mountain view, as the water view would have been disappointing. Our only negative experience was when we tried to cancel the reservations a couple of hours after booking through Expedia when we learned some areas nearby were still closed due to Hurricane Helene. It's on us for getting a non-refundable reservation, but it's on the lodge for canceling our reservation after talking to Expedia... Expedia contacted the lodge to try and get a refund on our behalf, but the lodge would not refund us. Expedia then left it to us to manage the reservation as we wished. We decided to keep our reservation since we would not get a refund. Thankfully, I called the lodge after they talked to Expedia to confirm our reservations because the lodge had canceled them. They were good about rebooking.

The cabins truly provide a taste of mountain life!

If a quiet, calm, leisurely time away is what you’re looking for, than this is the place. Sadly, there is still evidence of the disaster visible throughout the community, but it’s nice to see life there is mending. Be forewarned though that these duplex style cabins are set up like hotel rooms; they have the fridge and microwave, but the kitchen facility is located in the main building. That said, the kitchen is very large and resembles that of a cook-to-serve bed and breakfast - it’s quite large. The location is the moneymaker though - it’s right up the hill from a shallow accessible river. Naturally, all the other wonderful things about these mountains are near enough too! We toured caverns, visited a winery, and founds gemstones! To top off the evening, Lightning Bugs (a.k.a. Fire Flies) lit up the night presenting quite the display!
