Great cabin!
We towed our car to do the Tail of the Dragon and also explore the area. There was plenty of room for the car hauler, truck and car. The cabin was awesome, nicely decorated (especially if you are a car or motorcycle guy). Fire pit, hot tub, and even a place to keep your toys covered from the elements. Convenient location close to town and only about 25 minutes to the Dragon. The owner was always attentive and available if any questions. Definitely a 5 star stay, we will be back for sure.

Perfect relaxing getaway
Everything in this cabin has been thought out, from the decor, amenities and the comfort of furniture and beds! This place make it feel like home!! We throughly enjoyed our relaxing stay. We made fires at night in the fire pit and relaxed to a quiet night under the stars. The hot tub is a nice perk also!! We found ourselves In kayaks on lake santeetlah with rentals just a few miles away. Thank you Jason and Madeline for a much needed break from the grind for us. 5 stars 🌟 🌟🌟 🌟 🌟

Beautiful, romantic mountain stay
We have stayed in many properties throughout North Carolina, and I have to say, this was the best! It is beautifully decorated inside, which made it feel more special. And the outside was even more amazing!! We used the hot tub, which was big and new and had no problems. And we sat by a fire wrapped up in the blanket that was left for us burning wood that was also left for us!! All we had to do was relax. It truly was an amazing stay. If you are like me and read EVERY review before booking a place, I write this review to ease your mind. It IS the place to book. You will NOT be sorry. The owners understand what it means to rent out a property. I highly, HIGHLY recommend!!
