We had a mom/wife girls trip getaway and this was the absolute most perfect place. They had a basket of stuff for smores waiting. We loved the fire pit with a glass of wine and the sunset was gorgeous. The place was very clean and the owners were amazing throughout the process. We are wanting to make this an annual visit!!!

Very clean. Great view. Stocked with everything needed for a good time.

While attending our daughters wedding celebrations in Marion we decided to make it a getaway vacation for us as well. The home is well taken care of and had everything we needed. The owner has a great attention to detail which we appreciated each and every day we stayed. The view of the skyline and distant mountains on the back porch and yard area made the perfect backdrop for morning coffee and late afternoon/evening fires. Thank you Michael for sharing your beautiful home!

Beautiful cabin with awesome outdoor space! View is stunning & Everything you need is there! Just FYI: Driveway very steep!

Very comfortable and clean cabin. Our family of 5 stay was very comfortable and we all enjoyed ourselves.

Michaels property was wonderful. Highly recommend. Hopefully can get back in a year or two. Thank you Michael and VRBO. 😁

The property was as described. Great location for exploring Asheville and the Parkway. The views from the cabin were fantastic!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cabin! The views were spectacular (even with less-than-ideal weather!) and the house had everything we needed. We found the beds to be very comfortable and the kitchen well-enough equipped for us to cook dinner there each night. This is somewhere we would definitely recommend to others!

probably our best VRBO rental ever

There are not enough superlatives to adequately and fairly review this beautiful property and breathtaking view. Michael is truly a comfort genius. Further, i cannot begin to praise the retreat itself as it has more than just mere comfots it has world class, well, everything. Pssst, all beds rock but the Master bed for comfort RULES! I'm just saying. Thank you Michael !!

What a find! Amazing property with breathtaking views only minutes from town. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces and amenities were amazing. We will be back!

Great house Kids had a blast

What a great place. The view is amazing and it was perfect for a group of friends to get together.

This house is in a great location. The downtown area of Marion is just minutes away and the house is amazing! Plenty of room for my family of 5 to spread out. The outside area is wonderful and we spent most of each evening enjoying the fire pit, eating our grilled dinner at the lighted picnic table under the gazebo, then playing games at the table. There is good yard space for kids to run back and forth. This house is super close to some amazing waterfall hikes and Cedar Creek Stables (closing in August!) is just 30 minutes away. The house itself has everything you need to be comfortable. Use of laundry facilities, extra pillows, plenty of kitchen gadgets. We enjoyed the sunrise over the amazing, gorgeous view each morning and the sunset as well. I can't express how beautiful this view is from the house and yard. We prefer to cook so the kitchen was A-plus for us! However, if you're visiting, Crabby Abby's restaurant is just 8 minutes away and was wonderful. Then you need some Artesana's ice cream in your life. I would highly recommend this place. It has a nice downstairs set up for gaming and an air hockey table, but we really spent nearly all of our time there outside in the yard! Super clean home and responsive owners made renting this place easy and a great experience!

Everything about this place was absolutely wonderful, from the views, cleanliness, amenities, communication, etc. You couldn’t ask for anything better!

Really enjoyed our stay at this property. Very comfortable, clean, with facinating decoration and furniture. The view is breathtaking, spent a lot of time outside enjoying the view, clean air, and nature. The sun sets right into the mountain view and the night sky gleams with lots of stars. One of the best property we have stayed. The property owners are great with communication and reply quickly. Highly recommend this property, it will not disappoint.

This property is amazing, the views are incredible and with the nearby town of Marion, NC being so close you have access to everything you need. We saw turkeys (gobbling in the morning) and deer, in addition plenty of good bird watching. The outdoor fire pit is ideal and on a rainy day you can use the indoor fireplace. The wifi was very good and onsite instructions for the TV's, etc was very helpful. The bedrooms are very comfortable with a bath included in each bedroom is fantastic. The kitchen has everything that you need. If solitude and quiet is what you are after this is the perfect place ! 5 stars from us.

We were desperately looking for a cabin that checked off a bunch of things including location, interior comfort, outside amenities, and of course, a view of the mountains! I searched over 50+ listings and for the location, Michael's cabin hit the most marks for the price! Honestly, the only thing we were missing was a hot tub but that's okay because the stay was so nice here we didn't even mind. The view was just as pretty as we would have hoped and the cabin was comfortable. Communication with Michael was great and we truly enjoyed our stay. Instructions were clear and everything seemed really clean (except for the occasional stink bug getting in which is kinda unavoidable! Lol). The grill and fireplace were great so we cooked both nights instead of eating out! Beds were very comfortable and linens kept you nice and warm. The driveway was very steep, which I can't recall if I read or not in the description, but we found it fun. Location is convenient to all of the mountain activities we had planned as well. Overall, wonderful stay and would book again!

My husband and I love staying here. It’s our second visit now. We don’t even leave! We stock the fridge, make some out door fires, grill, read, play games and watch movies. There is a cozy bed and a big soaking, jetted tub. There is a lot of wind sometimes so you might not get outside to fire pit when you want but it’s remote and quiet which we sought after.

We had a great time. Everything was as we had hoped. Michael accommodated a special request and that was very much appreciated! The views are truly spectacular. No clear places to hike but we explored some. I will say that the house did have outside cameras which I do not believe was disclosed in the listing (unless I missed it) but that was not a big deal for us. We hope to return. :)

We loved this property and plan to come back again.

My family and I wanted to find a little getaway for Christmas and this home and location was exactly what we were looking for. The view is beautiful and the cabin was very spacious even with 6 of us. We spent one day visiting the Biltmore/Ashville area and another day hiking to the Linville water falls and snow tubing up in Seven Devils. We wanted to walk the Grandfather Mountain swing bridge but it was a little too cold that day. There are so many things to do in the area that I would love to come back in the summer time. The host was very accommodating and was quick to reply with any questions we had. I will recommend this home to everyone I know that's looking for a mountain getaway.

This home was so beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for a more amazing view! My whole family who included adults and children had an amazing time and there was something for everyone.

Husband and I rented the home in December and LOVED that the home was beautifully decorated for the holiday season. I'm a Christmas nut so this was a very cool perk of our stay! The home is cozy, very well appointed and the view is amazing. The host, Michael, was very easy to work with and answered any questions I had before our stay. We would definitely love to stay here again!

Relaxing and private

Great place. Secluded and perfect for a small group getaway or a couple families getting together with kids

If you are looking for a secluded place with a great mountain view, this is it! Very nice accommodations, clean and close to grocery stores and restaurants. Would definitely recommend this place.

We had a delightful time! What's not to love when you have a view that was simply spectacular. The cabin was comfortable, spotless, and well-equipped. Michael was wonderful to work with. It's rare in our experience to see photos that truly capture ALL that is honest about a rental and surrounding property. These pix were spot on. We'll be returning!

Everything was just like the photos and all the positive reviews!!!

Amazing views from a beautiful, spacious but cozy log cabin! The house is set up with all the necessities and luxuries for a comfortable get-away. The owners definitely but some thoughtfulness into their set-up. Check in was easy, and Michael was very responsive to our questions. The fireplace was an added bonus, perfect for a cool mountain evening. We loved it and are already talking of coming back. The view is beautiful, and we love the secluded peacefulness...while only being a few minutes away from the necessities. Great location.

Spectacular back yard and views. Fire pit is great. Absolute winner if you like a place to chill after hiking/outdoors, cook a good meal and spend time around the fire.

Cabin and view is absolutely beautiful
