This was the most lovely vacation cabin conveniently located not far from town, yet still felt private and secluded. It was beautiful! The cabin is the perfect size for a couple looking to get away for some time together.We explored the creek, went fishing in the stocked pond, relaxed in the hot tub (which overlooked the beautiful property), and spent time around the fire. It was an escape from the fast-paced lifestyle we are so accustomed to, and we're already making plans to return again in the future. The ability to wash dry laundry was a lifesaver and so convenient! The kitchen was fully stocked with appliances, dishware, and the like, and with the grocery store not being too far away, it made dinner a breeze!We explored Lake Lure & Chimney Rocks State Park, made the trek out to Bryson City and Deep Creek Campground for some whitewater tubing (so fun), enjoyed a ride with Riverside Riding Stables, and spent time in nearby downtown Rutherfordton. We truly made the most wondeful memories together and we look forward to returning again someday soon!

Beautiful property away from it all! Simple 1 bedroom 1 bath home with wrap around porch overlooking a creek/pond. There’s a lovely new hot tub on the porch as well perfect for star gazing. The property is somewhat isolated so don’t expect abundant cell signal though WiFi is available. The road to the cabin is a rocky dirt road so keep that in mind when choosing your vehicle. Mr. Bill was lovely and friendly. Readily available for any questions or needs. Thoroughly enjoyed staying with him!

Beautiful place with everything you need for a quiet and comfortable stay away from the business of life.The cabin itself sits right next to a beautiful creek that has been meticulously maintained. Just above the creek there is a pond which has been stocked with fishfor catch and release fishing. We did see a couple different fish that were larger and several fish that still have some growing to do.The owner of this property has really done a great job all around and the attention to detail shows throughout the place.I really can’t say enough about how pleased we were during our stay.Everything was clean and well stocked.All necessary amenities were provided and the owner was very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with.We had the opportunity to see some local wildlife while we were there, we had a nice campfire under the stars and of course the Jacuzzi was an added benefit which we appreciated.We will definitely come back to this location for future vacations.

Nice little cabin! This is a good cabin rental for your small group. Everything worked out well. The design isn’t as spacious as others we’ve stayed in. The grounds are wonderful. Unfortunately, the hot tub was not working when we stayed. Also a word of caution, the driveway is gravel and fairly steep. Bill, the owner, was great to work with.

Lovely little spot
The drive (for us) was easy, directions to the cabin were easy to follow, the property was clean and well-maintained, and the owner was very pleasant and cordial as he wished us well before we left. Couple of fun little nuggets for the reader...1) no dishwasher. Plan accordingly.2) no chain restaurants around, so expect to cook or grab food at a local spot, most of which were rated well, but we didn't eat out anywhere.3) ensure your vehicle has enough clearance, the road to the cabin is unfinished, but relatively smooth.Other than that, which isnt negative at all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. 9.5/10, would recommend.

This cabin was the perfect size for the two of us. It's equipped with everything you will need. Loved the wrap around porch with plenty of seating to choose from. Outdoor atmosphere was wonderful. Perfect place to unwind while listening to the creek and the frogs signing at the pond. Speaking of the pond we caught lots of small fish.
