Perfect location for a mountain stay

This lovely cabin was perfectly located—quiet and hidden away in the woods but close to the grocery store and convenient to DuPont State Forest, Pisgah National Forest, and all the fun things available in Hendersonville, Brevard, and Asheville.

Getting together with friends

Asheville is in between our homes which made it a good location to get together. The cabin was well equipped and the USB towers, in the bedroom, were a nice touch. If the weather had been better, we would have had a fire in the fire pit. Very nice cabin.
