The photos don't do this beautiful cabin justice. The back area with the hot tub is very private. The area in general is tucked away, peaceful and serene. Very clean, organized and the craftsmanship of the cabin interior is incredible. Highly recommend and would definitely visit again.

The cabin is in an established neighborhood but being at the end of the road you have plenty of privacy with great views of a wooded area (believe it to be part of Pisgah National Forest) to enjoy while soaking in the hot tub.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for choosing to stay with us! We’re glad you enjoyed the privacy at the end of the road and the beautiful wooded views while relaxing in the hot tub. You’re absolutely right—the surrounding forest area is part of the Pisgah National Forest, which helps create that peaceful, natural setting our guests love. We’re happy to hear it added to your experience. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your stay, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another relaxing mountain getaway!

We always encourage guests to review the listing carefully and feel free to reach out with any questions before booking, as we’re happy to help ensure the cabin is the right fit for your stay.

WE loved our stay, highly recommend....

We came to Asheville for the weekend and loved every minute of our stay in this cabin. It was very clean and extremely well equipped with everything you could need for a weekend getaway. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub and enjoyed the privacy it offered. It was close enough with a quick 30 minutes drive to downtown, but a nice private retreat at the end of the day. . We would stay again.

We are glad you enjoyed your time while staying with us. We love the unique place that we were able to find to put our cabins. It is so convenient to the city, but far enough away to get the full mountain experience. The hot tub is definately one of the best ways to relax and unwind at the end of a busy day of exploring all that the area has to offer. Thanks, Cabins of Asheville

Best Weekend

My wife and I have stayed at Hanky Panky twice now and have enjoyed every minute of our stays. The cabin is clean, the hot tub is wonderful (especially after a long day of walking or hiking) and the location is fantastic (far enough away from the city for peace and quiet, but close enough to get to within 20-30 min drive). We are already talking about when we can book another trip!
