Loved our stay! It was perfect for four people! Would have loved to have stayed longer. The place was super clean and we had everything we needed. Kitchen was the best organized and most common sense flow of tools of all the rentals I’ve ever had out of all companies.Super cute and quaint. It’s easy to find and not so remote you can’t easily navigate back to town.

We really enjoyed our 3 nights at this cabin. The place is in great shape with thought going into every detail and has very nice landscaping outside. The property was peaceful and we really loved spending time in the morning enjoying coffee on the porch. The location was great for accessing the Pisgah mountain bike trails and fishing the Mills River just minutes away. It was a good central location between some of the places we like to visit in Asheville, the forest trails and the Davidson River down near Brevard.

We stayed a week at this mountain home in an excellent location, secluded but close to everything. Angela's place has everything you need inside (and extras) for a cosy stay and outside is a garden oasis with the most relaxing porches perfect for rocking and enjoying nature. We easily accessed the Blue Ridge Parkway, downtown Asheville, Chimney Rock, and other attractions from her place. Angela was a warm and friendly host with the sweetest dog Buddy. She was very easy to communicate with, answered any questions we had quickly, and gave us privacy in the home and yard. A highlight was a tour of her studio and her artwork. A most enjoyable stay!

Our first impression as we drove up to this cute little cabin was very positive. As we walked inside, things just got better, it was clean, neat, and the aroma of the log cabin was very appealing. We were meeting other family members here and it was such a wonderful retreat. The beds were comfortable, there was a coffee bar, very workable, kitchen and comfortable living room and bedrooms. My daughter said she slept better here than she did at home in her own bed. The host was very gracious and friendly, we will definitely be coming back. We would recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a place to stay close to the activities of Asheville.

Angela is an exceptionally kind individual, and her cabin is beautiful and filled with a lot of intentional little pieces that made the stay great. It was a very relaxing environment, and the dogs were very comfortable both in the yard and in the home (we were too!).The location can’t be beat, about five minutes to north mills river (and national forest access) and five minutes to the grocery store. Sweet and easy neighborhood. Angela was extremely accommodating and also allowed us complete privacy.We have already booked a second stay.

House has severe water damage near bathroom, the mold got us sick. There are four different essential oil defusers around the house covering up the smell. Mold in the washing machine. Host lives 20 ft from the door and lets her dog out on property off leash despite rules, neighborhood dogs up on the porch harassing our dogs whole time. Couch was dirty, changed the cleaning list while we were there. Has all sorts of kooky rules pasted to the wall.Beautiful location on the river. Overall a bad experience

Very clean and comfortable cabin with so many nice touches. The coffee bar was especially appreciated. It was located just a few miles from an event at the WNC Agricultural Center so it was very convenient. We really enjoyed the beautiful landscaping, plants and peaceful surroundings. It was an enjoyable stay and we hope to come back again.

About the host

Hosted by Angela Cunningham

Host profile image
Welcome! I’m Angela, your host, along with my loyal pup Buddy. I’m an artist and passionate gardener, often found painting in my barn studio (which is located on the property) or planting flowers in the garden. Sharing the property are my three gentle cats — Mama, River, and Ash — who love soaking up the sunshine and adding to the charm of this little mountain retreat.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is surrounded by nature and offers a quiet, relaxing escape from the everyday. It’s the perfect place to sip your morning coffee on the porch, breathe in the fresh air, and listen to the birds chirping as the day begins.

What makes this property unique

This unique timber log cabin captures the true spirit of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Designed with classic wood beams and rustic charm, it provides that unmistakable cozy cabin feel. After exploring the mountains, hiking scenic trails, or visiting nearby towns, you’ll love returning to a warm, welcoming space that feels like a true mountain escape.
We are animal lovers here and welcome your fur family as long as they are well behaved, housebroken, up to date on vaccines/dewormed/antiflea/tick. We ask that you please don’t let your dogs on furniture and keep them crated when you’re not home. Boop bags are provided and we ask that you keep them on leash outside and pick up after them. There is a $50 pet fee per stay, if you have an additional pet there is a $25 fee. Please be sure to add your pet to the booking reservation. Thank you.
