The cabin is exactly as featured - no surprises! Daniel was super responsive and very accommodating, allowing a few in our party who arrived a little early to drop their bags vs. having to keep them in a hot car. The cabin is very homey and inviting with a nicely appointed kitchen for those who want to prepare an share some meals together at home. The outside space was outstanding, providing a great space to connect as a family and enjoy some quality time together. The covered front porch was very serene to sit and sip coffee with my daughter on a morning where we had some rain showers and we enjoyed the backyard just about every evening (hot-tub & fire-pit) both seated next to a beautiful water effect with bull-frogs being heard on these early summer evenings. The home is amazingly convenient to downtown Asheville which was perfect for us since we made a number of trips into town for outside patio seating at a few eateries/ breweries and a tubing trip down the French Broad river. If you're into hiking, we would recommend a couple of options within a 45 minute - 1 hour or so drive. Tripple falls provided a 2 mile hike (about a mile up and back) for some amazing views and an opportunity to sit on rocks below the falls and soak your feet in the cool water. A little further, but a truly beautiful ride up the Blue Ridge Parkway, followed by about a half mile walk up to a beautiful lookout/ viewing area was Mitchell Point. I'm guessing the view is amazing on a clear day. We encountered some light rain, wind and mist but the change in terrain and the views were still amazing. We had a terrific time, appreciated how easy the host(s) made everything and would definitely stay again!
