Family loved the cabin and we had a fantastic time. It had everything we needed. It was comfortable, clean, peaceful and relaxing. Location was great. Stores and places to eat were convenient but you still felt you were in the mountains. Pool was very nice and great hiking. Easy access to the boat ramp and the lake was wonderful. Host was great and very helpful. I would highly recommend staying here.

We honestly fell in love with this home (my 7 yo son’s first stay in a log cabin) & location, plus the fact that we were able to bring our fur baby made it all the more special! We had a truck, SUV & a boat & there was more than ample parking. The boat ramp & pool are mere minutes away, but the serenity of the amazing outdoor areas made it a little difficult to leave! Each morning we were greeted by a family of deer including young fawns! We will definitely be back!

Just as advertised

We stayed here for 2 weeks for personal and business. All in all, we were so happy with the cabin, none of us wanted to leave. The pool was almost a mile away (and yes it us right by the water), so not really walkable but the kids didn’t care. The pool was never really super busy except on/around 7/4. We did have a couple of small hiccups (microwave stopped working towards the end and the grill was hard to light). Be careful entering and leaving if u have a low profile vehicle. Be prepared for natures visitors (we saw many deer during our visit, including a mother and 2 babies in the front yard). Unfortunately it was too hot and humid outside to enjoy the deck, fire pit or the gazebo. John (aka Darrel) was absolutely wonderful and so accommodating letting us check in early and enjoy a late check out so the kids could enjoy the pool once more before we left. We are all so spoiled and used to the comforts of our own homes, I would recommend getting settled, taking an inventory of what is needed before going to the store. We would absolutely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay. The home was just what we wanted, and the neighborhood was delightful. We chose this home because we wanted to hike in the area and visit the NC Zoo. We were surprised at how close and fun Albemarle was, including Uwharrie Brewing and restaurants.

Just what we needed

Enjoyed the cabin in the woods. The porch was like a tree house, and was the perfect space for crafting. We had all of the amenities we needed.

Adorable cabin in beautiful Uwharrie National Forest neighborhood

Property owners very accommodating and flexible with dates and Check-in. Gated, quiet community with beautiful lake and forest back drop. Home had special features like glassed in back porch with wonderful forest view, screened gazebo for night gatherings, extra parking for multiple cars. Would stay again and recommend.

End of summer escape

We had my sometime continuous 73 year old parents, an indifferent teenage boy, a 3 year old who just wants to go swimming, my husband who just wanted to be fishing and I just wanted a quiet cup of tea in the morning and to watch the birds. We all had an amazing time and are looking forward to renting it again!

Great stay - perfect loaction

This cabin is well cared for and appointed. Beds are comfortable, kitchen is well appointed. The location is great and Woodrun offers a lot of amenties. The pool was really nice and has a convenient snack bar. We didnt boat, but there is a ramp and there are slips available. Lake Tillery has several places that rent boats as well. Basketball courts were a plus for the kids. I would recommend this property strongly for someone visitng the local area and looking for a nice vacation.

Quaint and beautiful log cabin.

We rented this home to attend a family reunion nearby. The home was clean and the rooms were spacious. The shower and bathrooms were well appointed including all bedding and linens. Communication with the owner was exceptional. He was prompt to respond and the app let us know when he responded. I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a clean, spacious home that includes a boat ramp access to Lake Tillery, pool and tennis courts very close to the property.
