Had a very enjoyable stay. A little farther from Asheville due to windy mountain roads than what we wanted but we made it work. We kinda stumbled upon the Chimney Rock downtown area and had a great afternoon exploring there as well. Overall we loved the cabin, the amenities but parking needs a little work, we were warned it was tricky so it wasn’t a surprise when we first got there and almost got stuck. I’d stay here again when we want to hike!!

Perfect for a Romantic Getaway

We had a great time at the adorable little cabin in the mountains! It was perfect for a romantic anniversary getaway. It’s small, but very thoughtfully done and was just the right size for the two of us. It would have been a bit cramped for more than two, but was exactly what we were looking for. We loved sitting out on the deck and enjoyed the hot tub under the stars. The parking spot in front was pretty intimidating for me to navigate, so I made my husband do it each day! :). We had a great time and loved our pick for this trip!

Not as described

Property is not as decribed by host. The cabin is not secluded nor romantic. The parking is awful, especially for a truck. A head up would have been nice. Front door is not very secure, very bad lighting out front that barely reaches your vehicle. Bed is extremely squeaky and the matress saggy. Quite a few cobwebs and the floor has multiple soft/sinking spots. Also, you cannot cover all windows; may not be a big deal to you, but it was to us for our honeymoon. Our clothes and bags had a distinct odor after staying 4 nights. Not a pleasant experience.

Cabin stay

Our four night stay at the cabin in Gerton, NC was average at best. The cabin could use a good deep cleaning inside and out. The steps need to be pressure washed. They were very slick and could cause a fall if not careful. The previous house guest must have had a dog with them, as there was dog hair on the comforter. One of the smoke alarms in the bedroom kept chirping due to a bad battery. Also the DISH remote would not work. Like some other reviews, I found the driveway to be sketchy at times trying to park and leave the cabin. You must back all the way down the drive to leave the property. Probably will not stay at this cabin again.

Peaceful getaway

The cottage is rustic and adorable. Peaceful, private and has everything you need. Perfect location easy to get to all attractions and tourist destinations. It gets pitch black at night so be home before dark. Only downside is parking is very tricky owner should remove the ugly useless shrubs in front up open up the space to make parking easier. Car or small suv is recommended pickup is difficult. I loved the quaint, cozy, rustic charm
