About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Located in one of the nations most desireable vacation spots.

Nestled in the woods of Brevard, North Carolina this charming cabin offers a spectacular view of the Great Smokey Mountains. Walk through the front door and embrace the beauty of this luxurious, open floor plan cabin with an enormous, stone fireplace that runs through the entire house. From the vaulted ceilings to the custom wood floors your mountain vacation keeps getting better. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and is equipped with everything to prepare a meal. There is a large dining area with plenty of seating and a nice view of the fireplace. The living room is cozy with mountain views from the windows and it is perfectly positioned to keep you warm by the fire. The upstairs is lovely but wait until you see the porch!! As we walk out onto the porch you will first notice the incredible views of the Great Smokey Mountains!! Here, you will find your peace. The porch has plenty of room as well as seating for entertaining. We've provided a stainless steel grill for your bbq needs. Also, you can connect a constellation with our state of the art telescope and keep your eyes on the trees with our set of binoculars, and you're bound to catch a glimpse of the native birds of North Carolina. The main floor also features a queen size bed with an attached bathroom. As we move to the downstairs you will notice the custom stairs that gives you a fancy feel as you drop in to the first king size bedroom. The king size room provides you with amply amount of space to store your belongings. Now, as we shift into the open floor plan of the queen size room you will notice the continuance of the fireplace. It will provide plenty of heat on those chilly winter nights! The shared bathroom has a drop-in tub and a custom tiled shower. The third bedroom downstairs is perfect for all the young at heart with twin bunk beds and chest full of games, puzzles and activities for kids. In the basement is a washer and dryer accessible to our guests. T

Overnight stay
The cabin location was great for what we wanted. Communication with the owner leading to out stay was challenging. I had messaged him a few times with questions about check-in processes with no response. A message the day before our trip finally led to a response. We had to meet the host at the cabin when we got there to get keys. That was a first for us. In other VRBO places we've stayed There's always been a code or combination to get in so that made it awkward. Also,There was no hot water in the upstairs bathroom

Million dollar view! Centrally located with short drives for an afternoon of hiking in DuPont Forest, Pisgah in the opposite direction, and a ten minute drive to Brevard. We enjoyed making s’mores over the fire pit Mr. Gary had set up and ready to go. Just the escape we were looking for.

Incredible views and fireplace
Property owner is very accommodating and easy to reach. Replies to messages and phone calls promptly. We enjoyed the fireplace which is huge. Bottom floor bedroom under stairs is completely open to bathroom with a fabric screen up. Be prepared for that. Not a problem for us because we stayed on the bottom floor with two of our grandchildren. The price is excellent and in our opinion it was a great stay. Highly recommend!

Moms need a break too. So my mom friends and I love to get away when we can. This was the perfect place to relax and unwind. Gary was very hospitable. My favorite was the amazing fires the fireplace offers. It’s a great location too. Hiking, waterfalls and shopping in Brevard. What more do you need?

Great views, okay house.
Overall this was a nice house. Ideal location and the view is lovely!! It’s great having both an indoor and outdoor fireplace. One thing is the telescope was broken which was bummer as we had several star gazers in our group. The cleanliness was just average, not to bad but didn’t seem like it had been deep cleaned in a while. Also it isn’t expanded on in the details of the house but the downstairs bathroom is completely open. It has one door but only a folded divider on the other side. Only a half wall separating it from the open bedroom. This can make things awkward. Overall we still had a nice time being there it just doesn’t live up to its potential.
