A Stepp Away Mountain Laurel Cabin offers automated check-in and out with wooded relaxing seclusion for those ready to escape and unwind from the daily pressures of life.

The two Master suites each have a private open-air deck accessible by sliding glass doors with bench seating to enjoy the fire pit, sunset views, star gazing, and separate access to the screen porch for dining and board games. Additionally, one of the Masters has private access to the bathroom and a large private sitting room.
