Nov 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great week at the White Squirrel Log Cabin I brought my family including my grandchildren to Mountain Home to show them where I grew up in North Carolina. The White Squirrel Log Cabin was the perfect place for all of us to stay together. We used the four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms throughout the stay. There are two kitchens and we used the bottom floor kitchen for breakfast and snacks. Hendersonville is nearby with its restaurants and shops on main street. Mast General Store is always a good place for additional travel gear. West First is a good place for dinner. The Cracker Barrel and Honey and Salt are two good places for breakfast and lunch. The October visit was just the right time to see the fall colors. The property around the White Squirrel Log Cabin had the fall colors in bloom. We were able to see the surrounding areas such as the Blue Ridge Parkway, Bat Cave, Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, and many other places in the Great Smokey Mountains. The performance at the Flat Rock Playhouse was so good. Overall, the week at the White Squirrel Log Cabin brought back so many good memories of growing up in Mountain Home, hiking in the surrounding hills, climbing Stoney Mountain, and walking/biking along the country roads. Darlene and Ron helped with last minute items, and in preparing for our stay. Wonderful time! ##### Bryan H. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Dianne W. Oct 7, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Covid Family reunion Here are things we learned. It is a rustic older home in the woods. It is very quiet and tranquil except for the occasional Jet flying over to nearby Ashville airport. It is very centrally located to do all the fun things in Hendersonville – historic downtown and all the apple orchards. It is also about 25 min. to Ashville and all the activities there. The property is a lovely, wooded area to hike around on. Seeing the white squirrels in the woods was fascinating. There are many gathering areas all with TV’s with Netflix and Roku. Internet is at 10 mg which was a bit slow for our needs with a couple of people trying to work a bit and do zoom calls. It is also weak in some spots of the house. There is a deck on the top floor that we enjoyed every afternoon. It really doesn’t sleep 12. 2 of the 12 would be on an old futon upstairs which is very uncomfortable. But there is also a queen air mattress that could sleep 2. Also, 5 of the 12 are all in the Master Bedroom. The kitchen utensils and cookware need to be upgraded. The kitchen could also use a good organization and removal of more than half of what’s in the cupboards. The microwave is a small 800 watt unit. Not very helpful to our group of 9. The upstairs floors are very creaky – difficult for those sleeping in the downstairs master bedroom. Beds were ok. We wished we had some additional blankets as it was cold a couple of the nights we were there. However, the house is amazingly insulated. But!!! Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed out stay. ##### Dianne W. Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol K.

The beds rooms are lovely. Two kitchens with everything you need for making big family meals. There is so much space the “younger group can have their own space! Numerous tvs and plenty of parking. The house is super clean and stays toasty warm. The views and grounds are great. We will be back! ##### Carol K. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nehemiah A.

The name sake White Squirrels were all around and the location was great and quiet. ##### Nehemiah A.

Place is very well equipped for a large group. ##### Andrew P. Stayed 21 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon T.

The variety of sleeping arrangements allowed for everyone to have a private space while all still being together. The kitchen facilities were perfect for feeding such a big crowd - plenty of plates etc. There are many "kitchen gadgets" that allowed us to prepare everything we wanted to, The children really loved seeing the white squirrels (or maybe it was a repeat sighting from one fellow)! I certainly would recommend the White Squirrel to others similar to our group. ##### Sharon T. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Ileana R. Jan 3, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Nice Cabin and location, needs to be dusted The cabin was nice and spacious, but the $250.00 for cleaning plus another $250.00 for administration was not worth it. The cabin looks nice and clean at first glance, but the dust and spider webs are all over the lamps, windows and window sills. It seems like the place has not been dusted or updated since it was built in 1975. ##### Ileana R. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### martin h. Jan 1, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute, cozy and convenient Everything about our 3 night stay can be summed up in those 3 words. The entire cabin was very cute and extremely cozy outlined with vintage or like the kids say, "retro" items. Plenty of room. The stairs are pretty steep, so small children should avoid. There was so much to do nearby, and the house was a warm place to be upon returning from an adventure! ##### martin h.

Very spacious overall, large kitchens upstairs and downstairs for cooking family meals. Two washers/dryers so you can pack light. LOTS of squirrels (white and brown) who really enjoy sunflower seeds. Our small grandkids helped in carving pumpkins and the squirrels enjoyed those seeds too. Wild turkeys galore! Once you stay, you will want to stay again! ##### Celia A.

Took walks in the woods, made fires in the fire pit, and grilled burgers on their grill. The location makes you feel like you are way out in the woods, but it is actually very close to stores/restaurants, so you get the best of both worlds. Tons of space for a big family gathering and all the things you would need for your stay. The only negative I would say is the kitchen floors were cleaned with something really greasy, so my white socks were black after walking around for 20 min when we first got there, so we all ended up having to wear shoes around the house making the floors even dirtier. Not a deal breaker though, we would still come back to stay. ##### Sarah S.
