Wonderful Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was exactly what we were looking for - a beautiful place to unplug and escape for the holiday. The views are beautiful, we loved the horses, and we even spotted a bear! The house had everything we needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Great Thanksgiving Stay

We had a great time staying at this house for our family thanksgiving. Beautiful property, plenty of room for everyone, hiking trails on site and a short drive away. The basement was a cold some nights when the fire went out, so some more space heaters would have been great and a few more house flies then we would have liked but no big deal. Kirby was very responsive and helpful! Over all a great memorable stay. I would highly recommend!

Family Reunion

It was a great place to have a family reunion. Plenty of space to go to a quiet spot and plenty of space to hold games with the entire family. The driveway was a challenge but the property and the house was beautiful. We had an issue with the a/c but Kibry was very responsive and worked with me until it was rectified. We would highly recommend this to anyone.

Motorcycle trip

Excellent! We have been coming to this area for ten years with our motorcycles. Our group gets bigger every year. We needed ten beds and enough room for our trucks and trailers so this property worked perfect. We had one issue with the AC but that was fixed quickly. Contact with the management was easy and quick to respond. Would definitely recommend this property!

Great property

The property was great. There were a few road closures that took us a different way up the mountain, but we saw fox, deer, black bear, and a variety of other things along the way. (Closures were definitely out of the property owner's control.) The views are stunning, it's pitch black at night, and the back porch, hammock and all, was a great place to sit in silence and enjoy the scenery. The property was big enough for the whole group and was perfect for what we wanted. Will be back.

Amazing stay, amazing service, beautiful view and wonderful accommodations

We had a 6 night stay in this beautiful cabin this past week. We had 30 women and there was plenty of room. April was incredibly accommodating and had everything we needed. She checked in with us daily and made sure we didn’t go without. She even helped us get the firewood to experience an amazing fire in fire pit on our last night. The customer service was incredible from the beginning of the booking to leaving the last day. I recommend this beautiful place to anyone that wants an incredible peaceful experience on acres of land and miles of beauty. It was absolutely perfect and all we imagined it would be. Looking forward to visiting again.

Seasonal Bugs & Driveway rocks & ruts

This was the second stay in this vacation home in 8 years. The remote location and the size of the gathering areas are a plus as is the bonfire pit and the surrounding hills which are beautiful in the Fall. However, the driveway is treacherous, especially in wet weather when the mud and potholes prevail. Our van scraped on the rocks as it climbed the hill to the house. When we entered, there were dead and dying bugs on nearly every surface, including the pillows and sheets. The property management team member assigned to us refused to come back out to clean after our arrival. This made for a continual process of sweeping up the carcasses during the stay taking away family time. There were other issues with the home that surfaced during our time there, the property management team has been advised of these concerns separately.

Nice Getaway Just Needs Cleaning & Maintenance

Kirby the property manager was responsive & available for phone calls & texts so that made the stay easier. There were so many dead bugs, though, all over the home, including in and on the bedding! I washed the bedding we were going to sleep on, as well as swept the whole place, before bringing our things in, because it hadn't been done in a while, so it appeared. The bathtub on the main floor was spewing water out of the connection pipe, Kirby said it was recently replaced & must of just not gotten on tight. The sink in the same bathroom is clogged. The bathtub in the laundry room bathroom is stuck on shower. The shower upstairs shot water to the toilet when you turned it on. Couches are shot, you sit down and go to the floor! Pool table is a nice addition. Pillows are FLAT, bring your own - wish I'd known bc I've got metal in my neck & it has to be supported. Stop and get gas & ice on the way in as well as anything you may need, it's a 30 min drive each way to a store that may have essentials at the gas station. WE are booked for the 2nd stay in April for my son's wedding, and I pray it's cleaner with linens replaced and pillows replaced, and the plumbing fixed!

Better than described. Clean house - well furnished kitchen (lots of utensils, pots, pans, soap, sponges, etc) 2 grills outside - gas and charcoal. Just a bit loud due to the large open construction (bring white noise sleep devices). Would stay again!

Relaxing Time at Cabin In the Blue Ridge

Very relaxing property with plenty of space for everyone. Kitchen had everything we needed, gas grill worked great, and pool table was fun. Quite secluded and beautiful scenery looking at the pastures with the cows and horses and hills in the background. Thanks for sharing the home with us!

I would stay here again! That says a lot! The views and getting to pet the horses was an incredible experience. The AC was new! I saw maybe 2 ants. The kitchen had plenty of pots & pans to cook for our group of 12. There are 6 bedrooms. The two queen beds in a large space, is in the basement plus two bedrooms. Everyone slept well. The linen was plentiful in each bathroom & the kitchen. Always love to have a welcome basket upon arrival of the VRBO. Kirby was prompt to answer any questions via email and txt msg.

So very sweet & tame.
We spent most of our time in dining room. Meals and card games.

Family Vacation

Sherman, Thanks so much for the use of your beautiful cabin. The sights were incredible and everyone had a great time! Lots of memories, the camp fires were awesome!!! We visited Hungry Mother State Park, enjoyed the fishing, swimming and the beautiful scenery...we had 9 people total, 7 adults-2 grandkids and 3 dogs. We would definitely revisit this cabin in the woods.

Peace, Privacy and Picturesque

Lovely large cabin in the woods with ample space for playing, lounging on patios and just enjoying nature. Spectacular surroundings. Kitchen could use some upgrading in terms of making sure oven is clean and fresh. Owner was delightful to work with. We would recommend this rental to others, just don't plan on exotic cooking. Go simple i.e. grill.

We just stayed the weekend and had a GREAT time. Not only was the cabin EXCELLENT but the view was INCREDIBLE! It had recently snowed and the power still stayed on in spite of the weather. The property manager was extremely helpful and the owner was quick to contact us about weather issues prior to our stay. I would STRONGLY recommend this cabin rental to all my friends! We plan to return and are looking forward to the changing colors of the trees during the Fall season.

Breathtaking Views

Our family trip to Cabin in the Blue Ridge was perfect. The cabin was large enough to accommodate our group, with beds to spare. The kitchen had everything we needed, even large pots and pans, plenty of baking sheets, 2 coffee pots, and two ovens, plus there's a huge table for meals, and board games. There are bathrooms on each of the three floors, which is nice when you have a group. There was plenty of seating on the porches and the views from every side were just stunning. We could see horses and cows grazing on the hillsides, and the horses even visited one morning, we woke up with them right outside the window. We walked the trails, and the kids had fun following the trail map and sign posts. If you're looking for a place for a large group, and if you appreciate a rustic, country atmosphere, this cabin is a great choice. We are already talking about a return trip.

Fun Family Reunion at the Cabin in the Blue Ridge

The property was perfect for our large gathering of nearly 30 people for 4 days. We loved the location (even though a few folks missed it the first time in). There was plenty of room for all to sleep and the kitchen was more than ample for our crew. The somewhat remote location, with plenty of acreage was ideal for our large group, especially since the weather was absolutely perfect. And, it wasn't a bad trip to Hungry Mother State Park for a day of swimming and biking. Our group had lots of avid hikers, so the combination of trails right on the property as well as a 10-minute drive to the Appalachian Trail made us very happy! Thanks for such a great place to gather our large brood for a weekend of fun and family!!

Perfect for multi-family vacation

This property is amazing! The house is in an incredibly beautiful location. The view from every window is gorgeous. There is easy access to plenty of hiking trails. The place was clean and very well-maintained. We used the house to meet up with 5 families of young children. There was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen and living areas were perfect for gathering. The kids loved the cows and horses that live on the property--we were even able to ride the horses one day! We had originally picked this property because it was centrally located, but it was so much better than we could have expected. We will definitely be back for years to come!!

Labor Day

We had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend spent with friends and family at this cabin. The cabin was beautiful. Everyone that dropped by had nothing but wonderful things to say. I wish the bedrooms were finished in the basement, as it made for difficult planning as we had children to consider and the fact one bedroom had a window with no glass open to the den really made it challenging. With this said I can't wait until we can return in the future. We enjoyed every minute we were there. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
