Convenient Stay
Posted Dec. 15, 2024 on HomeAwayWe were able to accomplish our objectives while at the farmhouse. The convenience of the location to what we were in Blue Ridge for made our trip successful. We were able to bring our dog with us which we prefer to do.

A wonderful place and host!
Posted Dec. 4, 2024 on HomeAwayWe had such a nice time in this place. The home is lovely, clean, well-stocked and in such a beautiful setting. We loved how it seemed away from everything, yet so close to town. Cathy, our host, was the most responsive and kind host we have ever had. Thank you for going above and beyond to take care of us, especially with traveling on a holiday weekend.

Mom and I
Posted Nov. 29, 2024 on HomeAwayMy mom loved the "granny chic" cabin and all of the rich history of the family. The host was very nice, and it was easy to communicate with her. It was warm and inviting.
The bathroom fixtures were old, but clean. We didn't mind them being old. However, it is a very dusty cabin. It has lots of cute little knick knacks, but a thorough dusting of them is needed. Several of the extra blankets smelled "soured" and we could not use them. However, I would have given 4 stars rather than 3 if it were not for the difficulty getting into the cabin for my mother (age 80) and me (age 60). The steps were very difficult foR mom, and I had trouble getting things in and out. I should have checked accessibility before I booked, but I didn’t. That’s on me, but I won’t make that mistake again.

Response to two negative comments:
1) Accessibility- we try to be as transparent as possible in our listing that folks with limitations should not stay with us. We are always happy to help with luggage if asked, but we were not.
2) Dust. Unfortunately during the busy season, deep cleaning is just not possible with many turnover days. I try to do a deep cleaning at least twice a year but I admit that dusting is my least favorite chore. I keep trying to do better. Furniture is always dusted but the “Knick knacks” do only get a periodic cleaning. Of course, I’m always happy to do extra cleaning if a guest requests and as our rental agreement makes clear.

Step Back in Time
Posted Nov. 9, 2024 on HomeAwayWe had a quiet, lovely stay. The house is nostalgic, charming, comfortable, and peaceful. Owners are welcoming and have dogs my daughter had a great time with. Magical gazebo near the confluence of two creeks. Cathy provides an abundance of linens, blankets, kitchen items galore, candles, even a tape/cd player for us 80s kids. We took our elderly dog with us and the house worked well for him. There’s a grassy incline up to the house for humans or animals who have trouble with stairs. We had a few fires in the fire pit off the back porch (all firewood and kindling provided in abundance!) and grilled out (again, all charcoal, newspapers provided). The house is far off the road but you can still see and hear cars, just FYI (didn’t bother me but I grew up in the city).
Seemed like we got peak leaf season. We took the train to McCaysville on the four hour ride. I highly recommend for adults wanting a slow (10 mph) look at the vivid leaves and to get some local history (but my 4 year old daughter found it boring). McCaysville was fun as was Horseshoe Bend Park. Overall a refreshing and relaxing mini vacation.

Farmhouse
Posted Oct. 31, 2024 on HomeAwayIt was great to experience country living, yet with modern conveniences. The soothing sounds of the creek made a perfect getaway. Close to everything in Blue Ridge.

Coming back to Grams place
Posted Oct. 22, 2024 on HomeAwayWe had a wonderful multigenerational Fall getaway and loved the “ welcome home” cozy farmhouse feel with this property. The hosts were so kind to give us a tour of the highlights of the property. The close proximity to local attractions was helpful with the toddler’s schedule and needs.

Quiet
