Avis Cozy hand-built cabin in the heart of wine country, near mountains and Mayberry

We loved the cabin and hope to visit again. The dog enjoyed investigating the property also. Very quiet and private. Great deck

Hosts were great, only wish we could stay longer! Location to Mt Airy and other sites is fantastic, the cabin is cozy and just perfect for 2 ... Accomodations were awesome, everything you need to have a great stay. Bed was super soft and comfy and kitchen was totally capable of doing a full scale meal or whatever you want to prepare. We are looking forward to coming back soon when the leaves change. All in all a great place to stay.

It was 14 degrees outside but nice and warm inside. The cabin was extremely clean and comfortable. There were plenty of dishes to cook a nice Christmas dinner. It was nice having a bathroom upstairs and down. Property was quiet. Nice property to walk outside.

Loved the rustic nature of this well-appointed cabin! Setting was beautiful and we loved the firepit. Drive was a bit hard to locate (rocks which mark drive aren't as large as we thought) and drive a bit rugged but overall an excellent stay!

We had such a nice stay in this adorable cabin! Thank you, Heidi, for all you did to make our stay so wonderful. The cabin has everything we needed and we really enjoyed the little getaway and our visit with family.

We had a wonderful time staying here, the cabin was great! Everything we could have possibly needed was there, the communication with the owner could not have been better! It was very clean, close to everything you would need/want to do, but secluded enough for privacy and relaxation. We will definitley be back

If you are looking for a secluded getaway this is the place for you. The cabin is located on 60 acres and the only other tenants are the landowners. It is quite with only an occasional vehicle going down the road or a tractor working the farm. The cabin is as pictured except for the lights draped around the deck. those have been removed. The ac unit is small but will cool the cabin. Just leave it at the desired temperature. There is a river on the property that you can fish. The landowners are awesome people and very friendly and polite. You and your pets have free range of the 60 acres. Just be aware there are 2 other dogs on the property so if your dogs don’t play well with others you need to be careful. I would highly recommend this cabin if you are looking for a quite get away. Me and the wife have been doing a trip once a year for the past 6 years to escape the hassles of the city and this is by far the best one yet for finding quiet and seclusion. There are several towns 20-30 minutes away that have attractions if that is what you are looking for. There is also I believe 20 plus wineries in the area that you can visit. We spent most of our time just enjoying the cabin. The cabin is equipped with the basic essentials that will get you by for cooking. I would highly recommend this cabin for anybody that wants a quiet, secluded getaway.

Our dogs had a blast too!! It was a private cabin with lots to do everywhere we enjoyed our vacation

I have rented through VRBO many times over the years, everything from small cabins to condos by the sea, and have been extremely satisfied with all of our vacation rentals. This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a negative review. My husband and I rented the cabin listed above for a five day retreat. When we arrived, we were pleased with the countryside and the coziness and cleanliness of the cabin. We were excited to stay for a restful and relaxing time, while also exploring the surrounding areas in NC. We arrived in the afternoon, and after going into town for groceries, we came back to the cabin to have dinner and relax after a long days drive to get there. While sitting on the futon couch, I had a flea jump on me. The next morning while in the downstairs bathroom, several more fleas appeared. We went to Mount Airy to see the shops and drive around. The next day, we couldn’t sit anywhere downstairs or upstairs without having fleas jumping all over us. Four times I pulled out the vacuum and did upstairs and downstairs, but they just kept coming. At this point we contacted Mike, the caretaker and he said that they would flea bomb the house the next day. We were traveling, so we were going to be gone all day anyway. When we came back late afternoon, we saw no sign except a trunk that had been moved and the ac upstairs had been turned back on. No sign of a note, a flea bombing, or the smell of cleaner after you clean countertops etc. after using the flea bomb method ( having pets in the past, I’ve had to do this so I know what it takes). The fleas were still everywhere. This was unacceptable, and I questioned whether they did anything at all. Mike initially said that another renter two weeks ago had two pit bulls that had stayed there, so it could have been from them. But when we contacted them again about there still being fleas in the house, the wife contacted the daughter( owner) who said she would refund our money if we got out that night which we did. And then she wrote an outright lie which she posted to VRBO…her words below. “Guests went hiking and were not happy with the insects that they brought in from outside. No such insects were in the cabin before their stay. They requested fogger, which was granted despite no fleas being found. They still claimed fleas after the fogger. They requested to cancel.” We NEVER went hiking, never requested to cancel. We were reimbursed but disappointed by this experience.
