Best VRBO experience ever!

We absolutely loved this cozy cabin up in the mountains! This was the best and easiest experience I’ve had with vrbo and I would love to stay at this place again. Great host and great communication. The hot tub and fire pit was a huge plus especially with this time of the year we used both every day we stayed!

Christmas Getaway

We had a lovely time at the cabin. It is private and peaceful and close to Franklin and Highlands. It takes a bit of time to get down the mountain, so meal planning ahead of time helps with that. There are plenty of places to relax inside and outside of the cabin and the scenery is beautiful. Internet works great if you need to do some work. We hope to get back there next year!!

This home is wonderful. It is far enough out that there is complete silence at night while we sat around the fire or in the hot tub, but still close enough to access lots of fun activities and amenities. We fell in love with the area!

Amazing Cabin

A perfect weekend getaway for anyone looking for a great cabin in the mountains. The cabin was cozy and had everything there we needed. At the cabin there are outdoor games and good fire wood that made the cabin even better. I highly recommend staying here. Thank you Mr. York for your hospitality and letting us stay at your cabin.

Great time at a Great house.

The house was great with amazing views! It had everything that we needed and wanted and more. Me and my wife are from the Atlanta area and we met another couple that we frequently travel with from the Raleigh area. We played darts and ping-pong in the detached garage and played Ms. Pacman and Galaga with the arcade-style video game on the lower level of the house. We also had a few fires at the fire ring and grilled a couple of times on the Green Egg. Everything about our stay was awesome. There was plenty to do in the surrounding area. We played golf at Mill Creek Country Club, made a trip to Harrah's, in Cherokee, and visited several small towns, including Franklin and Sylva. Several waterfalls can be seen from the road or a short walk. Everyone had a great time and would consider returning to the area and renting this house again.

Mountain Paradise

Simply wonderful. I did have my heart skip a few times on the single-lane dirt road to get to the cabin, but it was worth the wait! Immaculate, the best stocked rental property I've ever seen, and 99.9% of everything worked (that's usually 80-85%). And I'm being picky. We like to change it up and go to different places in the WNC mountains. We will come back here!

Everything about the cabin screams beauty and relaxation with amazing scenery, relaxing hot tub, comfortable campfire seating and fire pit, large family room with many games to play and enjoy with the family. Overall a wonderful stay with much fun and many laughs shared.

Perfect place to relax

Loved everything about the property. Furniture was very comfortable, had fire wood onsite for us to have a fire in the fire pit, and the hot tub was awesome too. Went gem mining at Rose Creek gem nine and had a beer at Currahee Brewery. Highly recommend both. We will be back here for sure - the fall colors have to be amazing!

Beautiful Mountain Vacation

This cabin was wonderful for our family’s Thanksgiving gathering. It is beautifully decorated and so cozy. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for cooking. The downstairs was amazing for the kids, with two bunk beds, games, and a big TV. We enjoyed time outside by the campfire, watching the sunset over the mountain ridge, and hiking up and down the dirt/gravel road that the cabin is on. Wonderful weekend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us.

Beautiful property. Very clean. Kitchen very well appointed. As with many mountain cabins, road up to is steep and curvy and the last few miles are gravel. No issues getting there but travelers, especially those not used to mountain properties should be advised.

Fantastic property

The property is fantastic. Just the two of us stayed, but we have already saved it in our favorites for the future with our family. There wasn’t anything that we needed l, that wasn’t available. You probably want to make sure you have all the groceries you need when you get there. We stayed here because our daughter is at WCU, we may stay here instead of Asheville in the future as well.

Great get away

We had a wonderful time in NC. Your cabin was a great home base for our adventures. We were all able to sit down to meals together at the large table. I had everything I needed to prepare our food in your kitchen. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after our hikes. The boys lit a fire in the fire pit almost every night. The sunsets were spectacular, and the view magnificent. We had a wonderful spring break with our children and a couple of their friends. We were able to put the girls in the loft and the boys on the bottom floor. Plenty of space for everyone!

We have been coming to the Western Carolina mountain area for over 15 years and have fallen in love the area. Our cabin is our future home - but in the mean time, we hope you make it yours and enjoy all the area has to offer!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this cabin and the property it sits on the minute we saw it. It has been a dream of ours to own a property like this. It is close enough to town, but far enough away to relax and listen to the beautiful sounds of nature!
