The upstairs level features an open-concept living area, fully equipped kitchen, and access to a private viewing deck—perfect for sipping coffee or unwinding after a day of adventure. The primary king bedroom on this level features a TV, cozy electric fireplace, closet, and private access to the bathroom and back deck. Downstairs, you’ll find a second king bedroom with a TV and a full bathroom. There is also an office space with two twin bunk beds. In the common area downstairs, you will also find a pool table to either practice your skills, or enjoy a little competition with your party.
Each level provides private deck access, as well as outside gas fire pits and Adirondack chairs, which will make your mountain evenings even more enjoyable. Also enjoy the breathtaking views in your own private hot tub! With in-home laundry, two bathrooms, and all the essentials, Golden Dawn combines comfort with mountain charm.
Whether you’re here for hiking, local charm, or simply some well-earned rest, this welcoming home base is designed to help you slow down and savor every moment.
We’re excited to share a recent enhancement at Saluda Mountain Retreat: a shared sauna, now available for you and the neighboring cabin to enjoy.
We provide regular pest control at our properties; however, because some of our homes are located in rural settings, guests may still encounter insects or small wildlife from time to time.
To ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience for all, we encourage and request all guests to review our house rules before completing their booking. These guidelines help maintain comfort, security, and create clear expectations for all involved. By booking, you agree to our house rules, policies, terms and conditions (including details on guest count, pet accommodations, security measures, and checkout procedures). Adherence helps us provide the best possible stay for you and future guests. We appreciate your cooperation in advance and look forward to hosting you!

What Guests Are Saying
“First time in North Carolina and this house was perfect the views from the deck are amazing and it’s very peaceful and quiet highly recommend”
“This was by far the most magical property I’ve ever stayed at during my time as an Airbnb tenant. The views are second to none, there’s everything you could possibly want in a hillside property overlooking the mountains, this is truly something of dreams. If you want to experience something truly and profoundly special, this is worth the price for the memories and experience you will leave with.”
“The view is even more beautiful than pictured! It was stunning! The house was so beautifully decorated and spotless! All the beds were extremely comfortable. The bedding and towels were luxurious, exceptional quality! The hot tub and sauna were very clean and the amazing views could be enjoyed from both. Huge TVs in every room made my boys happy. We had a great time with the pool table. It was nice to have plenty of room to play. The home is extremely well stocked with quality homeware, including a nice coffee bar. It was so peaceful and quiet and the drive to the home is so scenic. We had a lot of wildlife sightings, including a beautiful red fox! It is truly our new favorite Airbnb rental. We would love to stay there again!!”
“Great house, exactly as described. Helpful and responsive host. Thank you!”
“This is a beautiful place. Great location if you like the outdoors. Hike, wine, hot tub, repeat. A great long weekend. The host communicated well. Would stay again...and hopefully soon.”
“very nice place”
“Absolutely amazing place! Beautiful view and every detail of the place was well thought out. Close drive to the downtown area for restaurants, etc. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks again for having us.”
“Would definitely visit again! Thank you!”
“Forget amenities. The views at this bnb are PRICELESS! Other notable mentions are the comfy beds, super clean space and cozy decor. We loved it here and truly can’t wait to come back. During our stay we ate breakfast/lunch at Wakey Monkey (everyday). Super friendly staff and I highly recommend the Mean Green smoothie and the Turkey Sandwich with cucumber salad! On our last night we enjoyed dinner at the Purple Onion. We also visited the local outfitters store where our son enjoyed gem mining and playing pool. And, on the best weather day we hiked Little Bradley Falls trail and played in the creek! Don’t hesitate to book this one.”
