Beautiful and peaceful

Sandra was very personable and willing to help in every aspect. Their cabin is very homey and clean. We enjoyed the hiking at DuPont Forest while we stayed this time and felt staying in the cabin was much more relaxing than hotels that we frequent often. No slamming doors, no lawn mowers, no people . My husband enjoyed sitting on the porch drinking his coffee in the mornings. We will visit this cabin again.

Wonderful stay in Pisgah Forest

We enjoyed every minute of our 2 week stay at Sandra’s cabin. The cabin is full of interesting decor, was well stocked, and located in such a serene, beautiful setting. We had hummingbirds and lots of songbirds to appreciate from the back porch. We were sad to leave!

Amazing Cabin

Our host Sandra was very helpful and welcoming, even had fresh flowers awaiting in the cabin! Perfect size cabin for my husband, myself and our 14 yr old son! The bed was beyond comfortable and cozy which is a huge plus!! Location was great, 35 minutes from Pretty Place Chapel in Greenville, SC and along that route was DuPont State Park, waterfalls, hiking and great scenery. Also was a 2 hr trip to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee which we definitely enjoyed! Highly recommend this perfect cabin!

Lovely get-away!!

This gorgeous property was just what my husband and I were looking for—dog-friendly, in a peaceful location with a wood burning fireplace (not gas logs). We enjoyed hiking and seeing the waterfalls in nearby DuPont State Recreational Forest and also exploring nearby Brevard and Hendersonville. Sandra is a lovely host, and we hope to return again soon! Thank you Sandra!

Wonderful Anniversary Weekend Getaway!

Our second visit to this cabin, and it was just as amazing as the first visit last fall. Sandra and Bob made sure we had everything we needed, and are so friendly and accommodating. A little slice of heavenly privacy, getting away from all the craziness of this world around us. We hiked Triple Falls, made a few brewery stops, and spend a lovely day in Asheville Downtown. The snow was a nice surprise!

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Whitaker

Thirteen years ago we bought 13 acres of land to build a cabin to vacation in with plans to later build a small retirement home and use the cabin as quest quarters. When we ended up building a larger house than planned, we decided to rent out the cabin.

Don is a retired Cardiologist, and Sandra is a retired teacher. We have hiked this area for over 30 years and knew that we would want to spend the rest of our lives here.

While we genuinely love hiking, Don is passionate about taking pictures of wild flower and nature, and Sandra is very active at Brevard Health & Racquet Club.

It’s great being able to walk out our door with our dogs to so many beautiful trails. There is so much wild life to discover.
