“This was a cool place to stay.”
“Amazing stay! So cozy”
“The host’s communication is what made this a great experience. We had someIssues with the hot tub, and the host worked hard to get it resolved and accommodate us. Communication was prompt and thorough. It was a great weekend to take in the fall foliage and relax!”
“I went away on a solo trip just to get out of the city for a few days. This place was perfect. Not much around and I could just sit in the hot tub and annoy nature for a bit and relax. Definitely would book again if the opportunity comes up.”
“Positive: 5 stars Negative: N/A”
“Would stay again an awesome spot”
“Positive: It was very nice and quiet”
“Great tiny but well appointed cabin to rest our heads after a day of golf at McLemore. Enjoyed the fire pit outside.”
“This place was absolutely amazing! I loved the second-floor balcony—it was so peaceful to just sit, relax, and take in the view from the porch swing. The fall foliage was gorgeous and made the scenery even more beautiful.The amenities were fantastic, and enjoying a cup of hot cocoa while looking out over the property was a real highlight. My fiancé and I took full advantage of the massive grounds, which offered a wonderful hike through the vibrant fall trees. Having a fully stocked kitchen to cook our own meals and plenty of room to spread out was another huge plus. Since we are both writers, having that extra space really helped our creativity flow!A funny moment during check-in: the fire alarm was beeping due to a low battery. I had to laugh because it feels like fire alarms always have a personal grudge against me, but our host was incredible and quickly sent someone to replace it.Our stay here created a wonderful memory that we will cherish for a long time. Thank you so much for hosting such a precious experience!”
“Our stay was so enjoyable. The house was very clean and comfortable. The views are amazing. Loved it!”
“The cabin was wonderful! We enjoyed the location and the peace and quiet! The cabin was very clean, smelled great, and the host was very responsive!! We would definitely like to stay here again!”
“Very responsive team! We also throughly enjoyed the game room and the accommodations were perfect for 2 families travleing together!”
