Thank you so much for the kind review. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay and the cabin! We would absolutely love to have you back. Thank you for taking such great care of The Mountain Laurel!
Cabin was wonderful. Was thoughtfully decorated and stocked. Directions to both locate the cabin and check-in were easy. Excellent communication with owner.
Lovely cabin very homie vibe very clean only thing it lacked was wifi/cell service but not host fault as mountains are extremely thick so getting signal or wifi out there would be very difficult definitely would love to go back in the fall for the beautiful views
We had a great time! The property was much better than we expected. It was very clean, the hosts provided everything we would need and more, with firewood, a beautiful fire pit, record player, grill, and more. The cabin itself seems new. We felt safe and comfortable. The hosts were also easy to work with and very responsive to any questions we had. Would definitely alcome back and recommend to friends!

Thank you, Nick for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. It truly means a great deal to us and we are so pleased that you enjoyed the cabin and your stay! Come back again. We would love to have you!
Hey there! I am a small town girl that leads a simple life. I value time spent with family, friends and my fur babies(3 King Charles Cavaliers) more than anything materialistic. I'll never look back wishing I had more "stuff", rather wishing I had more "time" with those I love. I believe in being a "doer" and not a "dreamer". You've got this one life to live....so stop making excuses and make it happen! My favorite quote - "An unused life is an early death".
