Gary met us at the cabin and was very friendly. The cabin was very clean and close to the pretty place. The setup is a little awkward but has tons of room.
The host was amazing, the fireplace as well as the fire pit was prepared and ready for us! Very clean and laundry soap and extra toiletries were available. Mr. Gary was so hospitable. Our group enjoyed the stay!
Great location, close to downtown Brevard. Only around 30 minutes to downtown Hendersonville. Host was great. The chalet was cute, but could have been cleaner. It had everything you would need and the view was perfect!
Gary was great, and is about as easy-going as they come. The property and view are absolutely stunning, and there is plenty of room indoors and for outdoor activities. Fire pit and grill downstairs for cookouts and keeping warm, and an amazing mountain view for your sunrises and sunsets. We are very happy we picked Gary's beautiful cabin to stay, and I hope we get to stay again next year!! Thank you for making this such a great experience for me, my family, and my friends!!!
Such a great place with an awesome view. This was our second visit. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a place to relax. Close enough to town if you need amything.
We stayed here with friends for our first joint family vacation and it could not have been more perfect! We felt right at home as soon as we arrived. Gary was so helpful and nice, and the views from the property are absolutely stunning. We saw a ton of wildlife around the property (deer, turkey, chipmunks, a huge woodpecker and an albino squirrel)! Would absolutely stay here again!
Location was good; close to Brevard which is a great town and close to hiking trails. We enjoyed the views and wonderful fireplace. The kitchen was well stocked.
This was a wonderful property with excellent views and location. Gary was friendly and very helpful. Would definitely go back!

The location and view from the house is ideal but the house has not been maintained well. Several closet doors and the pocket door from kitchen to master bath were broken or difficult to work. The downstairs bedrooms I slept in was musty smelling and I couldn’t open the window because there are no screens on the window which was ground level. The towels are worn and had a mildew smell. Downstairs layout is awkward with very little privacy, esp in the bathroom.

athere is no screen on the windows because either the air conditioner or the heat is in use all uyear' Each room has it's on thermostat for heat control. If the room was too hot one should have lowered the thermostat as was explained. The towels were very hot, and dry when I removed them from the cloths dryer. The bifold closed doors does jump the trach occasionaly. I retracked them.

Unique home, beautiful location and views, and easy to find.
Exactly what you’d expect for a quick mountain retreat. Gary was a wonderful host… even sharing the best places to eat in the area along with what to order! We had everything we needed.

The guest was confused, and did not understand the situation. It was a local guest, and I have had nothing but bad trouble from the locals. I just wanted the guest to understand the my position. They could have still stayed. I did not cancel. This does mean that they would have been a problem. It was just a heads up.
Great property with amazing views! East drive from town and to parks and activities. Will definitely stay here again
