This was the first vacation my family and I took since my mom passed two years ago and it was absolutely wonderful. The cabin was pristinely clean, warm and welcoming. We felt very at home and great communication with the owner. She is lovely and the views are spectacular. We loved the privacy and quietness of the beautiful cabin. Highly recommend a stay.
What can we say!! We were looking for a place where we could relax, see the mountains and just enjoy some piece and quiet.. the Cabin is UP on top of the mountain just as described.. the views are spectacular. The owner has gone above and beyond to provide all the comforts of home... and you will wish you never had to leave!! Cathy was so helpful with any questions we had and all the information we needed before we got there... it is truly one of the best places and feel like home places we have stayed in over 30 years, and we travel alot.... thank you Cathy for a wonderful trip, we hope to come back!!
Beautiful home with amazing views. Very clean, host was extremely helpful. Would love to stay again.
This cabin was just what we needed! Such awesome views of both sunsets and sunrise. Weather was different on each side of the wrap around porch. The cabin was beautifully decorated. Cathy had it stocked for what ever was needed. The cabin was secluded and so peaceful. We can’t wait to go back!
Fantastic family memories at this well-appointed, immaculate cabin with majestic views of God's country. The property owner is very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We stayed 2 nights and wished we had planned a longer stay because we enjoyed it so much. The cabin has a unique feature where you can take in the sunrise in the morning AND reflect on your relaxing day with a sunset view from the wrap-around porch, wine is optional.
Once again this place did not disappoint. The checkin process couldn’t have been easier and the cabin was clean and stocked with all the essentials and then some. The wrap around porch with beautiful views was amazing. This was our second time staying here and it I’ll definitely be back!
Our family booked this beautiful home last minute and the owner was one of the most helpful and kind owners I’ve ever experienced through VRBO. She really cared about making sure we had everything we needed and helped with wonderful ideas for exploring the area. The home was perfect and I can’t imagine there being a better place to witness both sunrise and sunset views than from her porches. We had a perfect weekend and are thankful she shared her home with us!
My husband and I made a quick get-a-way to the mountains for the weekend to celebrate our 20th anniversary. The cabin/house was amazing. We had everything we needed there. The views are even better than the pictures. We sat on the porch both nights and watched the sunset together. Everything about this place is 5 stars including the host.
Our three-night sojourn at On the Rocks was awesome. The wrap-around porch gave us stunning views of the Brushy Mountains, and we could even glimpse Grandfather Mountain. The well-equipped kitchen, made meal prep easy, and we were thankfully spared the scavenger hunts for cooking implements that are typical in rentals. When we came in damp and soggy, the flip of a switch ignited gas logs, and we soon were warm and cozy. Our wet jackets were in the dryer as we relaxed with a glass of wine and discussed the day's adventure! Our host, Cathy, was very communicative and available by text to answer any questions we had. She has put a lot of effort into her property which makes it feel more like a friend's home than a rental. The drive up the mountain from US Highway 421 takes about 10 minutes. The road is curvy but paved and well-maintained. We have wonderful memories of our stay, and hope to come back again next year.
What a beautiful cabin with amazing views - both sunrises AND sunsets right from the porches!! The owner had every little detail covered… just bring your clothes! We will definitely book again!
First off I don't leave reviews ... until today. My wife and I were thoroughly relaxed and felt at home here. It was very cold, so we didn't get to enjoy the views as much as we wanted. However, you couldn't miss it out of the windows. The owner did a great job in making sure this was a great experience, and stayed in constant contact. We had everything at our disposal that we could possible need. We will certainly be back on our trips to build our own cabin in Buck Mountain.
Excellent cabin with outstanding views. The cabin was attractively decorated, very comfortably furnished and impeccably clean. The kitchen contained anything you could need. The cabin felt like someone’s home rather than a rental. The wrap around deck provided miles of mountain vistas with sunrise and sunsets. The owner was immediately responsive, friendly and helpful.
I have nothing but positive to say about this rental. The location/views are spectacular and I cannot get over how nicely decorated and clean the cabin is…too many special touches to list. Also, the owner went above and beyond to supply all the necessities in the kitchen and bathrooms. She was so accommodating and thoughtful…checking on our stay after 1 day to make sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone interested!
We enjoyed our stay and the views were beautiful. Sitting on the wrap around porch allowed for amazing sunrises and sunsets The unit has everything for you and even some things you would not have thought of. This is a place to escape to and get away from the hustle and bustle and spend quality time with your family or even on your own.
with multiple outdoor seating options from front porch or back porch! And thank goodness for 2 ceiling fans on each of the porches for the July heat. We enjoyed exploring Buck Mountains and hikes and the waterfalls in this private community! We went out every other day - One Day to Grandfather Mountain one day Mount Jefferson. We were quite comfortable in this cabin for our little getaway!
