Cabin is in very good shape with lots of extras including those blueberry bushes which the entire group enjoyed.Road into area is windy and gravel for quite a stretch but a Toyota Camry had no issues.Do understand that cell phone coverage isn't just spotty at the cabin but starts 15-20 minutes out but honestly isn't an issue once you get wifi on-site. Wifi was weak at times but once again not a showstopper. ##### James H. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John W.

We found the house is excellent condition and appointed with every amenity that we could desire.

Very well stocked kitchen and lots of games to play too! The “no airbnb or vrbo” signs posted along the way are a little unsettling and caused a delay in our family arrival, but we understand the owner does not control that. Located about 40 minutes from the nearest grocery store, but a great place to relax and unwind! Overall, a great house! ##### Heather C. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert G.

Far enough and situated perfectly, once you arrive you are in a fairy tale location far from the modern world. The owners directions were in fact the most perfect I'd ever received which made the drive easy and predictable. Once in the cabin, provided you've brought food, there is plenty of equipment to prepare and enjoy. We could have moved in forever, it was that nice. ##### Robert G.

Our family of 14 have stayed in homes in TN, NC and GA. This was rated as one of the bed. Spacious deck for those evening family moments. Owner was very responsive and hospitable. Neighbors anti-rental vacationers are to be ignored. Great place with blueberry bushes! ##### George M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Beverly S.

Due to my Verizon phone I could not make wifi calls. Others in the party with a different carrier had no issue. It was a great stay. Not too far from the Highlands where the wedding was held! I can’t wait to visit again!! ##### Beverly S. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tim K.

Great views, excellent house with everything you need or want. We really enjoyed our family reunion. The road in was a little confusing the first time in, but easy after that. The signs coming in were a bit much but I can understand moving to the wilderness and then having strangers invading your privacy could be upsetting. All in all we had a great time and would love to come back next year. EXCELLENT ADVENTURE. ##### Tim K. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff A. Apr 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Truly the Jewel of the Woods An absolute wonderful house and property for my family! We had three sets of adults and 6 children ranging from infant to seven years old. All of us enjoyed the house immensely. While the views from the back porch rivaled, if not exceeded other mountain homes we’ve visited, the unique property allowed our children to play outside safely. The home was stocked with the necessities plus more, including the kitchen. When we weren’t cooking on the Green Egg or sitting by a warm fire, we spent time in Highlands NC which was less than 20 minutes away. Overall this house was perfect and would highly recommend!!! ##### Jeff A. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jim W. Sep 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Great get together house in secluded area. The house is warm and friendly with lots of space. Plenty of cooking utensils and a good sized kitchen. Large family style farm table for serving meals. Spectacular view of the mountains off of the rear decks. We had 8 adults in our party and the spacious kitchen, living room, dining area and outdoor spaces had ample room for all. The only downside to our stay was when the well water system failed and we had to leave a day early. The owner was very apologetic and is going to refund one days stay. We highly recommend this mountain house and we would stay there again. ##### Jim W.

This is an awesome property located very close to Highlands! The owner was so gracious and very quick to respond to emails and texts. The property is in excellent condition, has a great view, and very clean. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio looking at the mountains and watching deer come up to the yard to eat blueberries! The owner was kind enough to let us pick some of the blueberries ourselves and they were outstanding! We cooked quite a bit outside on the green egg and watched the fireflies in the yard at night. We would highly recommend this property and hope to have the opportunity to come back and visit soon! ##### Scott J.
