The pictures don't do this cabin justice. Lovely location, the porch is awesome, and the babbling brook was so very relaxing. The development/ neighborhood was interesting to navigate, and you should know it is completely mountainous, and has curvy, and gravel roads. We had planned on going to Lake Lure Beach, but there is a delightful lake with beach right in the development, FREE. Our 2 boys thoroughly enjoyed exploring the grounds and loved, loved the lake.

We had planned to spend most of our time hiking, but lots of rain kept us inside more during our stay. We had a nice time relaxing & playing board games. The screened porch would be a great place to do that if it were a little warmer. I'm sure it would be wonderful during the summer. We did have a power outage our last night there, but it was close to bedtime anyway. The power was back on by 5:00 am. The only negative was taking out the trash. There wasn't an outside receptacle for the trash so we had to take it with us. It would have been nice to know someplace nearby where we could get rid of it. But overall, we would be happy to stay there again. ##### Nancy J. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalie M.

Reached out to Carolina prob, they tried to reset pad with fail. They then called us back after 30 min and informed us of a key lock box under back patio. Next day I placed a small load in washer. Hub and I took a short nap and woke up to washer overflowing and water all over the floor. We cleaned up water for prob an hour. I then contacted Carolina prop again and told them what had happened. The man we spoke with did mention some compensation on the phone. Which I due believe is appropriate for inconveniences. I would have thought Carolina Prop would have reached out by now on their own, but have yet to hear from them. Best contact would be my cell. ##### Kirk P.

Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Suzanne M., Jackson, USA Dec 1, 2022 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Not Ideal for Those with Allergies or Bad Eyes PROS: Spacious. Short drive to great hiking/grocery/shops. Well equipped kitchen. Nice grill. Comfortable bed. Once they finally communicated with us they were quick to send someone to address our issues. Easy check in/check out. Can hear the sound of the water babbling from the porch. Surface areas are clean. CONS: It's not well vacuumed; our allergies were cRaZy in the bedroom and on the couch. Hubs actually started a sneezing fit again just from unpacking his cpap machine (they have to sit on the floor so it was on the carpet all week). I originally contacted the property management company to see if there were any replacement bulbs in the house I could swap in a lamp. No response. Reached out again after we found and killed a palmetto bug (a.k.a. cockroach). No response. I was starting to panic because 16 hours went by with no responses to my messages and all I know is roaches are a heath hazard and I didn't want to take any home as a souvenir 😅. Was relieved to learn finding one doesn't indicate an infestation and once they did start to respond to me, they sent a pest control person within the hour to spray around the kitchen. They also sent someone out who replaced the bad bulbs and fixed the fireplace same day, but didn't tell us when they were coming or let us know afterwards that they came. Someone else wrote in their review about the lighting and I thought that was probably over exaggerated, but it's not. The pictures are staged with fill light. There's zero lights over the dining room table so it rendered the space useless in the evening for my middle age husband who can't see like he used to. And the living room in general is very poorly lit. SIDE NOTES: They have a logged in Netflix account, but the WiFi is too slow to watch anything on their TV without it constantly freezing or throwing an error message. Not the end of the world, just need to download movies to your devices. And on that note, I just realized while typing this that I left our Chromecast plugged in the TV so... yay for you, bonus house feature if you book it LoL And the recliner chair isn't there so if you are banking on that for any reason - don't. CONCLUSION: Overall while it wasn't quite what we were expecting, we did enjoy our trip. The place has a lot of potential with better cleaning upkeep, communication, and lighting. If you don't have have allergies or bad eyes you might love it! ##### Suzanne M. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly H.
