About this cabin rental
Welcome to Hold Your Horses — a charming mountain getaway where comfort meets stunning views. From the expanded deck with a relaxing hot tub, you’ll soak in spectacular sunsets, starlit skies, and distant views of Grandfather Mountain. After one stay, you’ll never want to come down from this High Horse!
Inside, warm wood floors and Native American-inspired décor create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The open-concept living area features a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The master suite includes a king bed and a luxurious jetted tub, while two additional bedrooms each offer queen beds and private baths. A convenient half bath adds extra comfort for guests.
The fully equipped kitchen boasts granite countertops and opens into a bright dining area surrounded by windows that frame the beautiful mountain scenery. Wi-Fi and satellite TV ensure modern convenience, even in your peaceful retreat.
Located within Leatherwood Mountains Resort, you’ll enjoy access to horseback riding, tennis, fishing, tubing, hiking trails, and on-site dining—all just minutes away. Outside, a fenced backyard with rustic split-rail fencing and mesh enclosure offers the perfect space for your four-legged companions.
Hold Your Horses invites you to experience true mountain living—where every sunrise feels like a breath of fresh air and every sunset makes you want to stay a little longer.

Our group of four came in for MerleFest and found this property to be the perfect place to recharge each night and morning. The stunning views and well-equipped home made it one of the best rentals we've ever experienced. While there’s a brief moment of hesitation with the narrow road and driveway, the wide, sweeping views and beautifully appointed home quickly dissolve any concerns. We absolutely loved this place! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Hold Your Horses to anyone looking for a peaceful and unforgettable getaway.

From the entrance into the Leatherwood Resort, Check In, Grounds, All Paved Roads, to our beautiful cabin ( Hold your Horses ) was outstanding !!! We did not leave the resort the entire weekend. It was so relaxing sitting on the deck looking at the 180 degree breathtaking views. The restaurant and live music was great as well ! Spectacular place that we will be sure to return to.

Our stay at Hold Your Horses was amazing. The view can't be beat. We watched the sunset in the hot tub and the sunrise on some of the most comfortable rocking chairs. Property was exactly as described. Hot tub worked, wi-fi was great, satellite tv for football, kitchen cooked up some great meals and they even had plenty of firewood available. Abby answered several questions I had very quickly. We can't to go back.
