Everything was great! Got lucky with awesome weather late March. Incredible views. Awesome property! Jack was super responsive as well for anything needed!
We had an amazing time! The house and views were amazing we can’t wait to go back! The host were great and responded quickly to every question, and left thorough directions for checking and checking out and stuff around the area. 10 out of 10 experience.
We absolutely loved the views. The sunsets were incredible. The hosts were very helpful and Jack replied right away to our request for help with the television sound issue we had. We enjoyed playing air hockey and board games downstairs in the evening and getting some fresh mountain air for a couple days. Driving up and down the steep hill to the cabin was definitely a new experience, but we didn’t have any trouble in our rental car.

Thank you for the beautiful photos!! So glad you enjoyed your visit. :)
What a stunning property! We stayed for two nights after a few days in Asheville and were just in awe of the view, in fact most of our time was spent on the chairs on the deck admiring the mountains. It was an adventure getting to the house, the hosts left very clear and helpful instructions. There is a house right next door which we weren’t expecting, but was still very private. Would 100% recommend to friends and would visit again without hesitation. Also Old Fort was very small but the restaurants were a very pleasant surprise, very fun to explore the town and Black Mountain.
Enjoyed a quick weekend getaway for birthday milestone celebrations. Cabin was beautiful, instructions were spot on and communication with the host were seamless.
We had a fantastic time at this cabin. The views were spectacular. Getting to the cabin was an adventure, but we loved the seclusion of it. Cabin had pretty much everything we needed. The only thing I would suggest is providing little soaps for the showers. My friends that stayed in the upper floor said the shower floor was a little slick, but otherwise everything was great! We highly recommend this cabin. You won’t be disappointed!
We enjoyed our time at the Cabin. The views are stunning. The quietness and calmness of the mountain does wonders for the human batteries. We will be back for certain!
We’ve been visiting Mountain Laurel Lookout yearly with our best friends family since our kids were elementary age. Now we have middle and high schoolers and the cabin remains perfect for our families and our cabin trips remain everyone’s favorite! The game room is amazing, the house is spacious even with two families, and the views are unbeatable!! Thanks for another great stay at your amazing cabin, Jack and Candace!
We had the most awesome trip. My husband and I stayed for two nights and just soaked up the beauty and tranquility the property offers. The home was so clean, cozy, comfortable and stocked with everything we could ask for. We had the most amazing bear experience with a mama and her two cubs digging up an underground beehive just in front of the back porch. That just made our whole trip. And we had the opportunity to meet Jack who was just so nice and helpful! We can't wait to visit the property again and would definitely recommend to our friends and family.
We stayed for Thanksgiving with our family. The cabin is terrific (although the drive in is VERY twisty-turn), and the views are truly stunning. Plus lots of aporites pi g pong games in the basemen
Cabin is beautiful & very clean! Absolutely stunning views from the rear deck & front of the property. Beds were very comfy, kitchen was well stocked, living area very cozy. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!
This home is absolutely gorgeous and the owners couldn’t be more helpful with details about our stay ! We absolutely loved it and would definitely stay again if available when we are in the area!!
we enjoyed our stay very much. The views from the cabin are breath-taking. The home is very clean.

Why they chose this property
We chose this mountain location to build our cabin because of so many reasons! It has the amazing views, no highway noise, Verizon works, it doesn't get too much snow and it has easy access to I-40 to Asheville. We, together with our good friends the Morgan's, bought the top of our mountain ridge . We have over 27 acres between us with only our two homes.
What makes this property unique
Panoramic views!
