Beautiful cabin in the most beautiful location! Quiet, peaceful, and proximity to Black Mountain.

The cabin itself is one of the nicer properties we’ve stayed in. Clean, tons of space, and beautiful surroundings. My kids absolutely loved the creek and played there for hours. We had a great time in the evening around the fire pit.
The only (slightly) negative thing I have on this listing is that I thought it would be truly private. Across the bridge there is a building where we had a few ppl in and out of. Not a big deal, but we were hoping we’d be by ourselves in the middle of nowhere.
All in all, we’ll be back and probably bring some additional family with us.

Very nice and beautiful home. You seem isolated when there but you are only 15 minutes from town. Would definitely stay here again.

From check in to check out everything was wonderful about “Kibbin”. The property is really tucked into the hill beside the road so it can be hard to see when you first arrive. Inside it’s absolutely stunning and had everything we needed. We loved listening to the creek from the bedrooms since the weather was nice enough to open the windows at night. Beautiful decorating, thoughtful design and a charming location make this one of the best properties I’ve stayed in. We all loved it. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.
