We were quite busy while we were there, and didn't get to enjoy the trails or check out other things on the property, but the time we did spend at the cabin was great! It was cozy and relaxing and had everything we needed for our stay. If we come back to the area, I would stay here again, and have our family rent the cabin next door. Beautiful area!

Rustic AND comfortable :) Nestled in the woods AND close to town. Lovely property with walking trails and scenic spots to enjoy. Within minutes of the Thermal Belt Trail - excellent bike/walk trail. Perfect for couples, nature lovers and small-town enthusiasts.

The house was a little small but it made for great family time since the teenager couldn't hide away in her room. The trails were adorable and our dog had the best time running through them and running in the creek. Would book again if I were in the area.

Very nice cozy getaway cabin

Everything was super clean, the cabin had a very strong smell of wood which was a cool experience. It was a very nice getaway for a couple. The wraparound porch with the creek was super nice.

Best Place to Stay Near TIEC!

I have stayed at this location twice now and have had outstanding experiences! The property is close to TIEC, restaurants, vineyards, and more! Hiking trails are great for people with dogs or a passion for the outdoors. Would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in this area.

Wonderful Getaway

It is a beautiful secluded cabin with access to trails, fire pit, creek, and not far from places like lake lure. We had a wonderful time just hanging out on the porch listening to birds, walking the trails and spending the evening by the fire pit.

Red Roof Cabin

The Red Roof Cabin was perfect for a weekend anniversary get away. It was private but close enough to town to enjoy the restaurants in Rutherfordton. The cabin was clean and comfy. The host was very communicative and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much.
