Jul 27, 2025 #### Summit Retreat Meet what we were looking for in blend of proximity to Brevard/activities and seclusion with a view. As notated the driveway is a bit of adventure in itself but easily navigable with the right vehicle. Property itself was clean and appropriately appointed. Would definitely stay again for our next vacation to the area. ##### Kevin B. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary C.
