Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The owners have really put a lot of thought and care into the design. Everything flowed beautifully and was ultra comfortable. They thought of everything including bathrobes, smore kit, kitchenware, grill, wood, and so much more. All the rooms inside the cabin have big windows allowing in natural light and also providing amazing views of the surrounding woods. There is also lots of seating options outside to dine or relax. Whether you snuggle under the covers in bed, relax on the couch inside, or sit on the patio outside, you will feel very connected to nature. We saw deer and wild turkeys during our stay. The cabin is tucked into the quiet woods but is only minutes away from grocery stores and restaurants. We were there visiting our daughter at App State (easy 30 minutes drive) and will definitely come back again! Highly recommend!
