Privacy OK. Did not use hot tub. People who rent this cabin need to be advised that while they do provide bath towels, you need to bring your own washcloths. We had to go out and purchase some. Never rented a cabin where those weren’t provided — not a big deal, but rather unusual based on my past experiences.

Really enjoyed the cabin. Hot tub and fire pit was very nice. If we had any complaints it would be that the cabin is pet friendly but the only area to walk the dog the grass was about 2 foot high. Also the string lights walking down to the fire pit over half the bulbs were blown. Overall was a great stay would stay here again.

The house was cozy and location to Boone very convenient. We booked it especially to use the hot tub. When we arrived we noted it was foamier than usual and saw a used soap bar on its ledge. We contacted the owner who responded within one hour acknowledging the issue and saying they would send someone out. No one ever came and we never heard any follow up from the owners, despite reaching out. I have had much more responsive owners at other rentals when we ran into issues.

This cabin was cozy but in need of a deep clean. The floors were dirty, kitchen greasy and bathroom needed a good scrubbing. We did not use the hot tub, nor grill.

Anniversary Getaway

We stayed at this beautiful cabin in Zionville, NC for our first anniversary, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The peaceful mountain setting, cozy interior, and thoughtful touches made it feel like a true getaway. Everything was exactly as described, clean, comfortable, and full of charm. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to relax, reconnect, and celebrate our special weekend. Highly recommend!

Winter Wonderland

Great cozy and warm cabin for a ski vacation! Loved the fireplace, hot tub, and outdoor fire pit! Open-concept layout was great for family dinners and conversations. Road is steep and definitely requires 4WD, but great for sledding!

Short get away

Nice property just needs a good dusting and gas grill needs replacing, Otherwise lovely cabin, downstairs bed was comfortable, plenty of hot water to shower with, pictures are accurate on what to expect. Would book again when needed, you do need to have a 4x4 when it snows to reach property in winter, as we were lucky to have several inches while we were there (yes I have 4wheel drive), check in process was easy and had no issues while there.

Perfect Fall getaway house

This house was the perfect place for our fall getaway. Tucked into the side of a rolling hill in a gated community which made me feel very safe. It was spotless and the king bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in so much that I looked to see what the brand is. After a long hike the hot tub was soothing over looking the falling leaves. I will be booking it again for next year !

Our trip to dancing bear

Our stay at dancing Bear was OK. The kitchen needs new cooking utensils the toaster needs to be replaced dog friendly, but there’s really not a place to walk your dog. The kids didn’t have a place to toss the ball. And the dust from the road, so close to the cabin was really bad. The grill on the patio needs to be replaced cannot be used
