Located in one of the nations most desireable vacation spots.

Nestled in the woods of Brevard, North Carolina this charming cabin offers a spectacular view of the Great Smokey Mountains. Walk through the front door and embrace the beauty of this luxurious, open floor plan cabin with an enormous, stone fireplace that runs through the entire house. From the vaulted ceilings to the custom wood floors your mountain vacation keeps getting better. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and is equipped with everything to prepare a meal. There is a large dining area with plenty of seating and a nice view of the fireplace. The living room is cozy with mountain views from the windows and it is perfectly positioned to keep you warm by the fire. The upstairs is lovely but wait until you see the porch!! As we walk out onto the porch you will first notice the incredible views of the Great Smokey Mountains!! Here, you will find your peace. The porch has plenty of room as well as seating for entertaining. We've provided a stainless steel grill for your bbq needs. Also, you can connect a constellation with our state of the art telescope and keep your eyes on the trees with our set of binoculars, and you're bound to catch a glimpse of the native birds of North Carolina. The main floor also features a queen size bed with an attached bathroom. As we move to the downstairs you will notice the custom stairs that gives you a fancy feel as you drop in to the first king size bedroom. The king size room provides you with amply amount of space to store your belongings. Now, as we shift into the open floor plan of the queen size room you will notice the continuance of the fireplace. It will provide plenty of heat on those chilly winter nights! The shared bathroom has a drop-in tub and a custom tiled shower. The third bedroom downstairs is perfect for all the young at heart with twin bunk beds and chest full of games, puzzles and activities for kids. In the basement is a washer and dryer accessible to our guests. T

Wonderful cabin
Host was amazing. Gave my group some insight of the area and had the wood fireplace ready to go. The host had the cabin very well stocked with household items and toiletries. The views of the surrounding mountains were absolutely beautiful. My only complaint is that the photos of the listing showed a telescope on the back porch, but there was no telescope to be found upon arrival. The overall experience was absolutely wonderful

Worst host and site ever!
This property owner straight up BLOCKED us from doing our event, EVEN THOUGH it was listed as A-Okay per the written property guidelines “events are allowed up to 30 guests, weddings” Saying “i’Ve hAD tROubLe in the pAsT wITh tHE pOLiCe” ….and said no to parties!? The week of the wedding event! And then claimed he never put that on there and this and that vrbo put it on there….. AND he approved this and knew about this event for a month and half earlier….what a joke of a host. DO NOT USE this host — he should be off the platform And VRBO support was absolutely useless— they never contacted me to follow up on my request, and each time I checked on the request, they kept telling me the same thing, that “GLOBAL CONNECT NEEDS TO MANUALLY REVIEW THIS.” I never received any communication about a resolution, even several weeks after my initial request.

Quirky place
It is difficult to tell on the pictures how the main downstairs bathroom is basically open to the bedroom on one side, which means that for the other two bedrooms when someone is using the toilet it wakes up whomever is sleeping in that open bedroom. Also because the bedroom downstairs is open to the stairs which lead to the main top floor it means that whenever anyone is on that floor they must be very quiet otherwise it will disturb the people sleeping downstairs. Also, the double bedroom downstairs has an opening at the bottom of the door that means that light and sound from other places in the house go through to it. The mattresses in the single/bunk beds were super thin and uncomfortable. And the bed in the main upstairs bedroom was very creaky. All of this meant no one slept very well while we were there. Also, the fridge was not clean when we arrived (had to clean out brown muck from it) and there were crumbs under the toaster that needed to be cleaned. The whole place overall was reasonably clean, but could have done with a really deep clean. The towels were fairly thin and nearly threadbare. Communication was a bit sporadic - we tried calling several times on the day of arrival to give a more precise ETA, both the landline and other number given (although one number was incorrect/one number not right), and no one answered. But onto the positives... The views! Wow! Stunning! Great that there was a washer & dryer for use. And grill and firepit were good to use too.

IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH HOST IN AN EMERGENCY!
I absolutely am furious with the host and vbro for not reaching out to me from my repeated attempts to contact them. I reached out to that host on Thursday b/f our trip to let him know out son-in-law had died tragically two days before and we just couldn’t come! My husband even called the phone number slushed on contact host and no one answered so he left the message and asked host to call us. NOT ONE SINGLE CALL OR EMAIL! I am furious. I am dealing with a broken daughter and grandson and no one reached out. We only asked that they hold our payment and let me change dates to a time when my family has begun to heal and we can be away . I am beginning to wonder if the Host was a scam host and I have been taken in financially! Someone SHOULD reach out to me to resolve this issue! VBRO! YOU MUST DO BETTER FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS AS I TRIED TO REACH YALL AS WELL!

Amazing mountain views!
Plenty of room for the 4 of us who wanted to go fishing near by and just relax and enjoy the mountains. We really appreciated the host taking the time to meet us at check in and give a tour of the Chalet. It made us feel like he wanted to ensure our stay was pleasant. He gave ideas of where to eat and where to vist. When we did have a question he repsonded promptly. The property itself was very cozy and comfortable. We would definitely go back again! :-)

Overnight stay
The cabin location was great for what we wanted. Communication with the owner leading to out stay was challenging. I had messaged him a few times with questions about check-in processes with no response. A message the day before our trip finally led to a response. We had to meet the host at the cabin when we got there to get keys. That was a first for us. In other VRBO places we've stayed There's always been a code or combination to get in so that made it awkward. Also,There was no hot water in the upstairs bathroom
