Gingercake Mtn Cottage at Linville Gorge - Wood Bu

MaryRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We really enjoyed our time at the cabin. It was extremely clean, private, and cozy. On top of that, the owners were very responsive. It was a great getaway! Only thing I could complain about is that it was a bit cold during the winter time.

Gorgeous Lakefront Home | Mountain AND Lake Views!

AshleyRating, 5 stars2 days ago
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home! The views of the lake from the large windows were breathtaking, and we enjoyed waking up to them every morning. The house itself was spacious, immaculately clean, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. Even though our stay was during the winter, we still enjoyed hanging out at the dock fishing and grilling out, which made the experience even more special. The host really made our stay even more wonderful — they were attentive, responsive to all our questions, and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. We would love to return and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable getaway!

Seehaus at Lake James

FredRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Several longtime friends and our wives have been getting together for New Year’s for the last 10 years. Seahaus is by far our favorite place yet. Beautiful house inside and out, quiet, peaceful, spacious and immaculate. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a place to stay anywhere near Nebo, NC - this is your place.

Good Vibes Only -Romantic Cabin with Private Spa

VictoriaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved our time in this sweet cabin. It was so private. All the outside amenities were so neat. FYI don’t expect to have perfect service though, you are in the mountains. It was so great to unhook and really just slow down. Can’t wait to go back again!

Hidden Valley Cottage

ValerieRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Lovely spot nestled in the mountains just north of Morganton. The comfortable garage studio that was great for our family of 3 given the bunkbed setup for kids and beautifully decorated for the holidays, much to my young daughter's delight. Million dollar view from the swing/fire pit and 10 million dollar view when Ed drove us up to the viewpoint on the property. We had a great one night stay and would definitely come back again when in the area!

Mountain View - Newly renovated house nestled in the Foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Located less than 5 miles from US-321 where you will take a beautiful drive up the Blue Ridge which offers endless views with activities for everyone.

BrandonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Adrianne's response was quick! Nice place to stay for the money. Just can't understand why many would want to come to this area for vacation. Adrianne's place was adequate and performed well for my work crew that built my house.

Great Farmhouse! Minutes to Lake

HannahRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We enjoyed our stay at this unique home. The pool table was very nice and there were lots of other activities/games. I loved all of the lights out on the back deck and down the stairway in the evenings. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to prepare a nice home cooked meal. Upstairs in the master bedroom there is a king sized bed that was super comfy. We wished we could have stayed longer. Loved how homey this property felt.

Six Waterpots Cottage II in Blue Ridge Mountains

MozamilRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This was a great little place to stay for a short stay. I will say, the place looks bigger than it actually is. There wasn't a dryer as mentioned or hair dryer. however it wasn't a big deal. I wouldn't bring more than 2 people here. Between having a 2 suitcases and 2 people, there wasn't much space. Again, its more of a short term stay for 2 minimalist people. Overall, it was a great place and great experience. The views were beautiful, the firepit/grill was big and lots of outdoor seating. private from other houses and very peaceful.

Linville Falls Cottage / Fresh Eggs • Flowers

SergeRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay! We traveled with our 10-year-old daughter and really enjoyed our time here. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Susan even left fresh eggs from her chickens, snacks, coffee, and tea, which was a thoughtful touch. The cabin is basic but cozy and tastefully decorated. It’s great for families with kids—safe for them to play outside and comfortable for everyone. Parking was easy, and even during a winter storm, we had no trouble getting to the cabin. Susan was kind, accommodating, and helpful with local tips about trails, restaurants and even ski resorts. We are planning to come back in the summer!

Waterfront Home on Lake James!

NylaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This place was amazing!!! So peaceful. We enjoyed spending time on the lake, sitting on the dock watching turtles, chilling on the deck, making s’mores in the fire pit, playing table tennis and cozy evenings in front of the fireplace. Close to lots of hiking trails and beautiful surroundings. We stayed with family prior to our wedding and then after for our honeymoon. Hope to be back to celebrate an anniversary.
