Home away from home

Our three-night sojourn at "On the Rocks" was awesome. The wrap-around porch gave us stunning views of the Brushy Mountains, and we could even glimpse Grandfather Mountain. The well-equipped kitchen, made meal prep easy, and we were thankfully spared the scavenger hunts for cooking implements that are typical in rentals. When we came in damp and soggy, the flip of a switch ignited gas logs, and we soon were warm and cozy. Our wet jackets were in the dryer as we relaxed with a glass of wine and discussed the day's adventure! Our host, Cathy, was very communicative and available by text to answer any questions we had. She has put a lot of effort into her property which makes it feel more like a friend's home than a rental. The drive up the mountain from US Highway 421 takes about 10 minutes. The road is curvy but paved and well-maintained. We have wonderful memories of our stay, and hope to come back again next year.

A beautiful cabin with views on both sides.

My wife and I had an overnight stay at this cabin. The cabin is perfectly positioned, with decks which benefit from extensive mountain views on both sides. Being February we did not spend much time outside, but found the inside delightfully comfortable. The cabin was warm and cozy with tasteful decor. To our delight the lounge also had recliners, which made for an even more relaxing evening. The cabin was spotless and has everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The owner was very responsive and kindly allowed us to stay longer at the cabin without us even asking, when our two night stay was cut to short due to unexpected work obligations. Stay here and you will not be disappointed.

Simply wonderful

This was the first vacation my family and I took since my mom passed two years ago and it was absolutely wonderful. The cabin was pristinely clean, warm and welcoming. We felt very at home and great communication with the owner. She is lovely and the views are spectacular. We loved the privacy and quietness of the beautiful cabin. Highly recommend a stay.
