    Great stay! Host was very friendly and helpful. The home was very clean and comfortable, and we had everything we needed. The lot was very private with plenty of outdoor space for our pets. We would definitely stay here again.

    The overall property is very nice. The owner greeted us on arrival to talk about the home and let us know if we needed anything to call.The kitchen is extremely well stocked with most anything you would need. The home is cozy and the beds are comfortable. The fireplace was a nice touch but the home was chilly I believe because of the high ceilings. The drive from the road is kinda long and slow because of ruts and uneven dirt road . You are definitely off the grid when staying here. Saw quite a few deer and the owners dogs came to visit for treats.

    We stayed in the cottage with our young family of five (ages 2, 4, and 5) to visit friends in town over Thanksgiving and go hiking. There was plenty of space for us, inside and out. The cottage was cozy, kitchen fully equipped, beds were comfy, showers were hot, and heat was warm - what more could you ask for? The location was good for us - the property is about a 30 minute drive to our favorite hikes in Pisgah, and Dupont is not far at all. The property is beautiful and secluded, but also not too far from amenities like Ingles. Brian was friendly, communicative, and a pleasure to work with. Our kids also loved visiting with the friendly dogs on the property that would fun down to say hi.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is furnished beautifully and well stocked for all your needs. It is located about 15 minutes from Hendersonville and about half hour from Brevard. It is very peaceful and private, and located on a long private gravel road/driveway. Close to hiking, golf, wineries, breweries, waterfalls!

    Husband and I spent a long weekend here for a short mtb trip. Proximity to riding/hiking trails is amazing and the property and cottage were great. So peaceful, clean, one of the most completely stocked places we’ve ever stayed. We couldn’t have been happier. Our border collie had a great time on the property too. Would absolutely recommend.
