While the property was pleasantly secluded and very quiet, it was a short 10 minute drive into town to enjoy breweries, shopping, restaurants, and gorgeous views. We will definitely be back!

My husband and I were in dire need of getting away from it all. This property was beautiful. The mountain views and the fresh air were so good for us. The property was clean and lovely. We appreciated the little touches of cold water bottles, beautiful kitchen and other linens, and other additional touches on our arrival. The hot shower has a contemporary design we appreciated. The trek up to the house was exciting. The property is on a mountain and their are twists and turns. You have to go slowly as it is one lane but we easily navigated our Grande Cherokee up to the property. If you need a place to stay to explore the Carolinas, Tennesse and Georgia, or if you need a place to rest and regroup, this is a perfect place to stay.
