I want to express my tremendous appreciation for the wonderful several day. Friends who were in NC at a Lake Lure came up to hike and take in waterfalls. Everyone enjoyed the house.

The property was clean and comfortable for my husband and me, as well as our pup. The kitchen was well equipped. The living space was comfortable and the deck was great. We sat by the fire pit one night also. Will stay here again!

This cute little cabin is a great place to disconnect and recharge. It's surrounded by woods and peaceful. It's also a short distance to great food, fun activities, and a lot of adventure. The theme of the decor is very eclectic and fun. The power reclining sectional was super comfy for curling up at the end of a long day of hiking. The giant bean bag chair was great for an afternoon nap.
Things to note: there are two beautiful windows in the primary bedroom that don't have coverings (it was a little tough to try and sleep past sunrise); the mattress in the primary bedroom is definitely firm; the water heater held about enough hot water for two adults to get about 5-min hot showers before the water turned cold. These aren't bad things, but definitely things that didn't align as well with the trip we were on.

Upon arrival we knew we had selected the perfect rental! The house was full of charm and beautiful! The inside was so nice and just like home away from home. You could tell that the owners really take pride in their home. And bonus, it is pet friendly!! I could not believe how nice the place was and at a great rate.
Our dogs enjoyed the porch (they have a gate so you don't have to worry about your dog getting loose while you relax) and the property! We had no issues at all with the pets. We enjoyed the proximity to our hiking and fun destinations while still feeling relaxed and in the country.
It is a short drive from Brevard and Asheville and many other falls and hiking trails. I would definitely recommend going to Whitewater Falls and Gorges State Park if you want to get out into nature.
We will definitely be visiting this location again; it was a perfect stay. With the added bonus of great wifi and ability to watch the NCAA Final Four games; go Wolfpack!
Don't hesitate on this one; book it! You will be so glad you did.
