We loved this cabin! Cozy, clean, and ideal location - private and secluded-feeling, but easy access to hiking and town. Natalie was a delightful host - seamless communication and lots of helpful information. We will be back!

This is a great small cabin! We enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it. Limited counter space but lots of spots to hang things. Big back porch with lots of covered space. Good parking, comfy clean bedding, very quiet peaceful setting right across from a hostel on the appalachian trail. The photos are accurate so if it looks like your kind of thing it is! However, if it looks a little too small and rustic for your taste in general, give it a pass. For a quick mountain getaway this place was perfect for my wife and I.

This place is the perfect remedy for what needs soothing in your soul! The views, the flowers, the birds, the location....I could go on and on! I would highly recommend it to anyone that needs to punch the reset on their life.

Excellent place - my family had a wonderful time being unplugged and outdoors!

Natalie's cabin is wonderful. It has everything you could want and more. It is in the perfect location, near several trails and the town.

Fantastic! We will be back!

This cabin is the CUTEST! The town of Hot Springs is so small, you might miss it if you blink and that was one of its' many charms! The Chickadee was a perfect place to relax and Natalie has done a great job of making it cozy and providing excellent restaurant recommendations!

We had a wonderful stay -- arriving very late after a pre-eclipse drive from Pennsylvania and waking up to a beautiful breakfast and the most pleasant hostess.

Ann's place was quaint, yet clean and comfortable. The room was as described and we had everything we needed for our stay. Though we didn't get to meet Ann in person, she was easy to communicate with via Air BnB and we had a smooth check in with Rachel. We enjoyed our stay in Hot Springs!

We had a great time! Such a lovely town and location. I would recommend guests plan an extra day to explore the area if time allows. The hospitality and food was also a big plus!

Awesomeness!

Beautiful secluded property well worth the value! The hosts are extremely nice & easy to work with.

This house was exactly what our family was looking for- a quiet, secluded place with easy access to nature and all the Blue Ridge Mts. have to offer. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch, taking walks on the property, and camping by the river; tubing, rafting, and hiking in nearby Hot Springs; and visiting Asheville and the Blue Ridge parkway (all within easy driving distance). The cool nights were fabulous and filled with fireflies and the sound of katydids. Paul and Lisa were excellent hosts, very responsive, and the house had everything we needed for our nearly week-long stay. We will definitely come back if we stay in the area again - we had a fantastic time!

My daughter and I did a road trip through the Appalachian mountains and this was our favorite stay (out of 5). It was so secluded and we loved having the wide open space! There are so many amenities here that aren’t listed – like the zip line down at the beach that occupied my 9 year old for hours. There were also campfire supplies provided down by the pavilion (so nice!). We also loved floating down the river and spending time lounging in hammocks (there was one there and we brought one of our own). The only people we saw were others floating down the river (which was also very fun for us!). Last but not least it was wonderful to have the feeling of being nestled in the mountains. Everywhere you looked you felt surrounded. A perfect retreat! I wish we could come back and stay in the house again and again!

Lisa and Paul are great hosts and I cannot say enough positive things about them. The place was very clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. They also just provided some basic conveniences and solid information on Hot Spring to make our trip more enjoyable. Great place for a secluded, romantic getaway or a family vacation off the beaten path. Hot Springs was also a great surprise. Highlights were Smokey Mountain Diner and ArtiSun Gallery. Highly recommend this for a weekend getaway or week long vacation.

The house was very charming and extremely well-stocked! The beds were quite comfortable, and there were lots of options for heating and cooling. The pavilion by the river was fabulous! My boys and dog loved wading in the river. There's even a small stream right next to fire pit and pavilion. Paul and Lisa were very quick with email replies and very welcoming. There's no ATT cell service but they have Wifi, and it was speedy. After camping for many days, we appreciated the washer and dryer and clean bathroom. The landscape was beautiful, some wooded and some wide open well-maintained spaces.

If you are looking for a rural country cabin in the woods with river access look no further. You will not find a better more secluded quiet spot anywhere.I am so pleased with my stay that words cannot express how much my family enjoyed the visit. We will be back!!

Complete, simple, quiet & secluded. Thats it in a nut shell.

Accurate description. Clean house. Right in downtown. Pretty, spacious yard. Great porches. Fast wi-fi.

A great place to to give thanks with our family, truly a great getaway.

Lovely, scenic, quiet and peaceful with a funky and fun decor. We would like to have been able to spend some more time here. Hot tub was excellent and love the 'on your honor' greenhouse.

This was a fantastic spring break getaway for my boyfriend and I! Mary left 6 large eggs in the refrigerator for us which was an awesome surprise. The cabin was super clean and cozy. The hot tub out back was private and overlooked the pond and the mountains and it stayed warm enough when we used it. Chip was super cute! We would absolutely stay here again! There were coffee filters to use which was nice. There were plenty of clean towels and blankets.

What a beautiful and peaceful place. We would love to stay there again, hopefully for a full week next time.

Lovely, secluded cabin in the heart of the valley. We enjoyed breathtaking views of the farm and explored the surrounding areas with curiosity and joy. The cabin itself was cozy and felt like a home. The porch was so nice for dining and sunbathing and the mineral spring hot tub at night really hit the spot. It was private but open and we absolutely loved it all! Will definitely be back and highly recommend it!

Where do I start.. As two professionals who are surrounded by the hustle and bustle of life, this was a treat! The hot tub was amazing and being able to enjoy the quiet and peace was truly restorative. All around.. Just what the doctor ordered!

We loved our stay at Pine Cabin. Beautiful farm close to hiking and scenic drives. We especially loved soaking in the mineral water hot tub!

Excellent stay, great kitchen, courteous hosts, very private and quiet. If you need groceries to cook, I would recommend getting them before coming into town as the options are somewhat limited in the town of Hot Springs.

The cabin was so clean and cozy and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The hot tub was a real hit and the air conditioner was much appreciated due to the humid weather we had while there. It was nice to know the hosts were just down the road at the farm if we needed them, which we didn't. It was a great cabin getaway!

This snug cabin is warm and draft free for a winter visit. The efficiency kitchen works just fine if you eat out, take home leftovers and microwave them. For larger groups there is a crockpot - load it up, go hiking, come home to a cooked meal. The hot water was REALLY hot!! Great after a long hike in the cold rain. As advertised the Appalachian trail is less than 100 yards away. There are many other interesting trails within a short drive that are off-lead dog friendly. In December the street out front is low traffic and safe for sensible dogs to be off lead while you are walking the very short distance to the AT.

Great little cabin, close to town. Cozy, comfortable and has a neat rustic atmosphere.

I love this little hideaway, which is actually really close to EVERYTHING- the AT and walking distance to town! There was plenty of room and it was pet friendly, which is a plus because they are an extension of our family. Also, having the toilet separate from the shower room is bonus as well.....thank you for hosting us!

Great cabin in the perfect location for our Hot Springs Rafting adventure!

Very clean and comfortable. Natalie took the time to make us feel very welcomed (left notes and Hershey's kisses to welcome us). Loaded with great movies and books. Had a great, relaxing time

We were in town for a wedding and stayed at Natalie's Goldfinch cabin. It was a great place to stay. It was clean, comfortable, and was a convenient walk into town and to the AT. I would stay there again for my next trip to Hot Springs. Thanks Natalie!

Everything was perfect. The house is just So cute. And Natalie very kind !

We stayed for three nights to indulge our 16 year old who has a longtime ambition to do a thru hike on the Appalachian Trail and for a change of scenery for a friend visiting from California. I *loved* that the cabin was RIGHT ON the Appalachian Trail so we could take fun pictures with the sign and my son and husband could just take off and go hike 12 miles while the rest of us could walk to town or drive to nearby attractions. Another big appeal was having a cabin that welcomed dogs. Be prepared to bring along a comfy dog bed b/c the floors are all hardwood. Also, there is no sofa or living room area. We didn't mind b/c we were either out doing things or if we wanted to watch a movie, the family could all pile on the big bed. Movie selection, by the way, was great with lots of different options. Everything was great and we had all we needed. Natalie answered questions promptly and I felt confident she would be there for us if we needed anything.

This was a wonderful weekend for me and my friends! The perfect getaway!

Hot Springs is an amazing little mountain town. From this cabin we walked the Appalachian trail in both directions, along beautiful ridges. The hot tub rescued our muscles on our return The kitchen had everything we needed to cook delicious meals, but the town has 3 great restaurants that can be walked to if your not into cooking. The space is large and welcoming, the couch and rocking chairs perfect for reading. We had a lovely New Years Eve bonfire in the fire pit. It was a perfectly relaxing few days and we will definitely return!

It's a really great place if you are visiting hot springs. It is within walking distance of the town and the Appalachian trail. I would definitely recommend it!

Perfect mix of secluded/romantic and close to town and access to the river. Both a hot tub and an in-house jetted tub add to the fun and relaxation. Best of all is a lovely location with the soothing sounds of the brook and fire pit in the back. We loved rocking on the porch and listening to the brook. Easy to find, good communication and coordination of coming and going with the gracious host. We plan to return again soon!

Melanie's place was really nice place. We enjoyed hearing the running brook in the background- sublime. Beautiful atmosphere. We had a great time! Hot Springs is a cool town.

Great location, quiet, scenic and peaceful. Melanie was great, she was reachable at any time and quick to respond if anything was needed. Hot Springs is a hidden gem.

This was perfect for my trip to The French Broad River Festival. It rained most of the weekend, having a nice warm house to walk back to was nice after a long day of music and activities! Melanie was a great host! Stopped in when I was checking in to make sure everything was set for me and I didn't have any questions. Plus her husband stopped by my vendor tent at the Festival to say hi! They were wonderful hosts.

5 minutes after we walked in the door we were already planning our next visit Melanie stopped by to say hello and introduce herself -excellent host and has lived in hot springs a long time & knows the town Communications excellent The cottage exceeded expectations -immaculately clean , & comfortable Super fast internet Nice private back yard with a rare treat .. a bubbling brook/creek that was mesmerizing We love Hot Springs-got in 10 miles of loop AT Hikes and enjoyed local restaurants The hot tub was nice to relax in as well We will definitely be back Only down side was we felt it was a bit over priced With taxes, cleaning & fees we paid $451 for 2 notes that a lot

Thoroughly enjoyed the cabin! Cool house with neat layout. Clean and spacious for a large group. I would highly recommend. It's very close to rafting on the French Broad.

Even though been using Airbnb for several years, there is still a level of nervousness not knowing what you are going to find when you get to the location. The second we drove in to the driveway I knew this was going to be an awesome location. Literally around the block from downtown it was so convenient to get to yet secured. The rooms were clean and spacious, the large deck and living room enable our large group to do lots of activities together. Roman, the owner was absolutely amazing. From personal touches to the amazing communication. We will be back again and can't wait.

Our stay was amazing! We brought our two dogs who loved the yard and freedom. The stars at night were amazing and the view during the day was peaceful. Roman was a great host and gave us some great food and adventure recommendations for our stay. He told us to check out Max Patch which is a bit of a drive but worth the view for sunset. I will be surprised if we don't go back and visit this location again!

Roman's cabin is amazing! Offering plenty of privacy, yet still quite close to dining and convenience stores, this place was the perfect location for our group. The house is well-stocked with cooking supplies, towels, blankets, and even the things you didn't think to bring. If you are looking for a spot in the North Carolina mountains in proximity to hiking trails, delicious Southern cooking, and charming small town general stores, look no further than this cabin!

Roman's place is amazing! You're right in town but the cabin is very private. Everything was perfect and all the added personal touches really went above and beyond my expectations. We brought games to play on the deck, enjoyed the hot tub, movie night on the comfy couch and hammock, and had an overall fantastic time! Beds were comfortable, place was clean and in working order, easy to find, and Roman was accessible at all times. We'll definitely come back. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Beautiful home - thank you so much for an amazing stay!

The cabin is awesome! It has everything we needed for an overnight getaway with multiple family members. There was more than enough space for a group of us, we really enjoyed the hot tub, and fire pit. It’s only a 15 min walk from downtown Hot Springs but still provided a secluded and private feel. It was more beautiful in person than in the pictures but Roman said he was in the middle of updating the listing during our stay with newer pictures. Once again, thanks for accommodating us on such short notice and we are already planning a trip back to Hot springs, this time for a longer stay.

We spent a couple days trekking and hiking in the nearby mountains and it was great to spend the night at the cabin.

Beautiful views with a quiet neighborhood give you the perfect chance to get away from it all! Everything was nice and clean and ready for us when we arrived. We thoroughly enjoyed our time!

Perfect cabin retreat! We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and were close enough to town to easily come and go, but also secluded enough to have a quiet stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the poplar cabin! Very clean and comfortable and felt like home. The owners even left us some fresh eggs in the fridge which made for a delicious breakfast. Our girls (and my husband and I) loved the hot tub. It was super clean and nice not to have to worry about chemicals with our little ones. Our dogs enjoyed swimming in the pond and relaxing on the big deck. It was a very short (1 mile) drive to the AT, where we spent hours hiking. We would definitely return in the future! Thank you Mary and Pete!

Very welcoming and cozy cabin. Great view! I wish we could have stayed longer.

Stayed in Poplar Cabin with my 3 best girls for a relaxing weekend. This place is tucked away, wonderful overlook to the quaint town of Hot Springs. I highly recommend.

The poplar cabin was such a great find. It is close to the little down town area of Hot Springs and there are tons of beautiful hiking trails close by. We were close by to the town but the cabin itself felt very private and tucked away. Poplar was spacious and comfortable and came with all the amenities to have a relaxing weekend. Check in was easy and we really did not want for anything while we stayed there. The spring fed hot tub was truly a highlight of the property.

Blissful relaxation on a private farm, just a few minutes from the heart of Hot Springs, NC. Broadwing Farm provides the ideal setting for a peaceful getaway. Picturesque and tranquil, it was perfect for a birthday weekend celebration. We will definitely visit again in the future and recommend it to friends and family.

We stayed here for a quick girls trip--it was sooo lovely to have the hot tub with spring water!

Deb was really easy to communicate with and sent very comprehensive information about the house and the local area. The house is fantastic, even nicer than the pictures, and the view from the front porch is wonderful - but make sure to put bug spray on before you sit out there for too long! We only stayed a few days, but it would be a very comfortable place to spend a week or two.

The host canceled this reservation 8 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

deb was super quick to respond to messages and sent a very detailed email with a TON of suggestions for things to do in the area. the house was as-advertised, with an awesome view, and easy access to the town of hot springs. we will definitely be back!

The cabin is amazing. Lots of comfortable beds. The game rooms, volleyball court, kitchen, amenities...everything was in great condition. Highly recommend staying here for a getaway for a large group.

Amazing, private cabin with a hot tub and fireplace! This little gem is close to hiking and the town of Hot Springs. Great suggestions from the hosts on area hiking and eating!

We had a very relaxing time at Hound Heaven. They had everything that we could have possibly needed, including some extra doggy toys and plenty of kitchen gear to cook supper. Loved the hiking tips too! Max Patch is a must see, and is an easy hike to the top.

What a great cabin for a weekend getaway from Asheville. Private, clean, comfortable, and easy to access. Would definitely go again

Such a welcome place for us and our two pups. We were able to have such a carefree weekend w our dogs!!! We don't get to spend time all together as much as we would like because of our military service. It was nice to get away w no distractions. Definitely planning to come back:)

After two days of hiking and camping on the AT with our dogs this cabin was a nice break like it had been before. Perfect fit for our visit and always a joy because of how wonderful it is for our dogs. Not to mention this visit a nice bottle of wine was waiting to welcome us. A wonderful way to spend some much needed time as a couple and fun for our dogs as well.

The host canceled this reservation 20 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We had a great stay at The Paw Print cabin. Easy to find, though be wary of the steep, narrow drive at the entrance. I have a smaller SUV and had no issues though. The cabin was the perfect size for my friend, myself and my small dog. The hot tub was great but the cover mixed with the summer heat bumped the programmed temp of 100 up to 104 when we arrived. We turned it down quite a bit and it fell to 99 by morning. We also had the pleasure of enduring a heavy rain shower on the tin-covered front porch. Beautiful. We will be back hopefully in the fall or winter to take advantage of the gas fireplace.

My girlfriend and I stayed out the Hound Heaven cabin. It was every thing we wanted and a little more. A short drive to check out the town of Hot Springs which was full of kind people. Plenty of hiking trips to choose from. This cabin was so enjoyable we plan on making it our annual getaway. The hot tub and cabin was clean and so relaxing. Other than hiking and checking out the beautiful views there isnt much to do. But there isnt much more to ask. In mine and my girlfriends mind, a vacation isnt measured in all the stuff you can do, its measured in the things you dont have to do. As for this cabin, a weekend of relaxation, freedom, and each others company it was the best vacation ive ever had. Thank you very much.

We had an absolutely excellent time! Steve was a great host and the chalet was perfect. And my normally dog-shy German Shepherd even made some new friends :) all in all, could not have asked for a better stay.

Enjoyed my stay. Great place if your looking to get away and relax for awhile.

Steve was great!! Very accommodating. The doggies are very sweet and he prepared us breakfast. :-)

This was a dog's paradise! Endless nature and exploring. Steve was great company and our dogs had so much fun together. We're eager to go back to this mountain retreat in the Spring and see how different the landscape looks.

Steve was extremely friendly and accessible. He made us feel welcome and very obviously enjoys interacting with his guests.

We had a fantastic time at Steve s house. A clear sky over the campfire and smores. Steve is great company and very helpful.

Nice quiet place. The host was very friendly. It was not too hard to find at all and we made it up the little hill without any trouble in a Honda Civic. Hot Springs gets a little too crowded in the summer. I recommend you visit Hot Springs which is only 20 minutes away for lunch if you want but stay here.

Thankfully, Steve met me at the bottom of the mountain and I followed him up as it was dark, and as he says "a bit tricky"! He helped me find my way the next morning as well. Accommodations were fine, a comfortable bed, hot shower, a TV to chill to. His two dogs are bundles of friendly energy. Nice to have "dog friends" while away from home. Gorgeous setting on the side of the mountain. Peacefully quiet morning or night. If you enjoy quiet and solitude, this is a great place to stay. Would definitely stay again. Four wheel drive recommended!

Melanie reached out to us prior to our stay. She was really accommodating based on our schedule. It's a great location, within walking distance to downtown Hot Springs. The road traffic is lively during the day, but the trade off is super convenient proximity to town. We really enjoyed our stay!

Melanie was a wonderful host checking in with us prior to and during our stay. The cabin was as described - full of charm and a perfect location. We loved being in Hot Springs. And being able to take the short walk into town was a big plus for us. Everyone in Hot Springs was friendly and helpful - we will definitely return.

A funny thing happened on the way to Melanie's beautiful Arts & Craft cabin. We were in the middle of dinner when Melanie and her husband showed up to gently inform us were in the wrong house. A good thing too since the one we were in was nothing like the pictures. We moved, she was as gracious as she could be and even delivered a special welcome package of great stuff for "her" mistake. The cabin is perfect, great front porch sitting or more private back by the tub or the cooking pit. The living room, dining room, bunk room and kitchen would be perfect for a larger group, all the mechanicals worked--we didn't try the hot tub cause we went to the Hot Springs instead. A short 3 minute walk into town or an offshoot of the AT about 50 yards from the house. The hiking near the house is the reason many people come as well as the views or white water kayaking. We shouldv'e stayed a week. Maybe next time.

Perfect location for a mountain weekend with the family. Melanie's place was comfortable and a great set up to simply relax and enjoy the area. The outdoor fire pit was used nightly and we walked to town for dinners and hikes. Would love to go back.

Melanie is a great host. She made it super easy for us to check in, gave great directions, and excellent communication. A wonderful cabin for a quiet weekend.

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Melanie contacted us before hand and checked in again during our stay. Just the right amount of contact. The cabin was beautiful and we enjoyed the hot tub.

This cabin was everything that we expected. I could not be more thrilled with our first Airbnb experience. Thank you Melanie!

This cabin was everything we hoped for! My group of college friends gets together every summer in Hot Springs, NC, and this was our first time choosing a house over the campground. We couldn't have been more pleased with the location (a short walk to town and to the river), the space (6 adults slept comfortably), and the beautiful weekend experience we had together. Melanie was easy to communicate with and incredibly accommodating. We hope to return next summer!

Jim was prompt in his response to our inquiry about the property and all subsequent correspondence about our reservation. He also provided very useful information regarding directions to the cabin which included important landmarks. The home was warm, inviting and clean upon our arrival. All the necessary kitchen utensils were available as well as beautiful handmade mugs for us to enjoy our coffee in each morning. With 8 adults and two children (3 years and 10 months), we had enough space to spread out and feel comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the additional blankets and sheets were useful for those who slept on the futons. The upstairs loft and bunk house were nice additional common areas to relax in and for the kids to play. The outdoor space and surroundings were lovely and peaceful. We spent most of our time outdoors hiking, fishing and relaxing on the porch with a friendly and sweet neighboring dog who liked to visit. Jim helped point us in the direction of a nice hiking trail that we all enjoyed as well as brought us supplies (paper towels, scrub brush) when needed. We visited the town of Hot Springs as well as Asheville and appreciated how close we were to them but how remote we felt when on property. Our time at doe branch was relaxing and enjoyable on many accounts. We would love to visit again, possibly in the fall or spring when the weather is a bit more mild and we are able to take advantage of the outdoor spaces a bit more as well as enjoy the views from the house. Our only concern with visiting in the winter again would be the drive up to the property-which is a steep road. 4 wheel drive and a strong stomach would be necessities to make it in the snow. Jim was available and helpful throughout our stay. The photos of the house don't quite do it justice. It's really a wonderful place to spend time in and make memories with friends and family.

This was a lovely place to stay! The cabin was larger than expected and well designed with lots of places to enjoy the views and mountain feel. It also was well equipped with more than just the basics. Jim was very responsive and worked with us to accommodate a somewhat last minute booking. The trails on the property and neighboring paths were delightful. I highly recommend Doe Branch Mountain Retreat and hope to go back someday.

We spent a week at Doe Branch and the whole experience was incredible! The house is beautiful, very clean and comfortable. Everything about it is cozy and inviting. We had a couple of questions and Jim replied within minutes. We would recommend it to anyone that wants to retreat, disconnect from reality for a bit and enjoy the beautiful landscape of North Carolina!

I had prompt and excellent communication with Jim and felt comfortable contacting him even after our trip ended. The house description was spot on, very clean and well stocked with supplies. We overpacked and could have easily just shown up with our clothes and essentials. The property was lovely, very safe (truly in the middle of nowhere) and our children had enough to do by exploring the house and grounds to be entertained for our stay. We were there with 6 adults and 7 children and had plenty of space to spread out with bedding options/bathrooms for each family. Would love to stay here again in the spring!

Jim and Deborah stayed in contact before our visit and checked on us during the stay to make sure that we had everything we needed. The property is gorgeous and very serene. We are a family with 5 small children and the home more than accommodated us. We were lucky to get some early snow and sled down the hill from the house! I would recommend this property to anyone looking to "get off the grid" and will definitely consider it if we are in the area again.

Jim and Deborah's Doe Branch property is awesome!! Seven of us from Chattanooga, Raleigh, Boulder, CO and Tampa, FL gathered to celebrate an upcoming wedding and couldn't have asked for a better set-up. Everything was spot-on from start to finish, Jim was very laid-back and ready to help with any questions or concerns we had leading up to and during our brief stay. The cabin is fairly remote but not off the grid. It was really the perfect combination of modern and rustic and we were able to disconnect and absorb the great vibes of the Appalachians. The home is clean, well organized, decorated tastefully and all the amenities are provided including a good coffee maker and a beastly Weber gas grill. The outdoor fire place built into a retainer wall is a great feature. The land the cabin is situated on is gorgeous and we were able to really appreciate the diverse topography of the area on the various private trails on the property. Even our contingent from the Colorado front-range rocky mountains were impressed with the steep grades of some portions of the trails. This was by far the most professional and smooth airbnb experience we have had and I think folks would be hard-pressed to find a better destination in the Asheville area.

This cabin is the perfect mountain get-away! It is definitely off the beaten path, and you feel like you have a mountain to yourself. The grounds are beautiful, with lots of trails to explore right out the door. We loved watching the hummingbirds on the porch, and we saw tons of deer. The cabin is cozy, with a great kitchen and lots of bedrooms - 5 bedrooms, one with twin beds. Jim was wonderfully accommodating and very responsive to any needs. We used the grounds near the cabin for a photoshoot and Jim met us and showed us around the property. I highly recommend this spot for connecting with nature, hiking, and some wonderful peace and quiet.

Jim and Deborah were very welcoming to my family. The house was as described in a very private beautiful setting.

Danny's rental was in a perfect location, only 30 min from downtown Asheville and a couple minute drive from the French broad river. The home was even better than the pictures, with a fully stocked kitchen and grill, beautiful screened in porch from which you can hear the nearby mountain stream meandering through the property. It was a beautiful and secluded location that made for a relaxing vacation. Danny was a very kind and gracious host and our group felt very welcome by both Danny & Ginny's hospitality. Would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking to spend a relaxing vacation in the mountains near hot spring.

We had an excellent time! The cabin was pristine and the setting was beautiful. Really well placed for hiking and exploring Asheville.

Myra's cottage was incredible! A private little slice of heaven in the woods. We had a blast there, playing ping pong, frisbee, and board games, hiking and visiting the property's waterfall, and cozying up with movies and books. Danny, Ginny and Venus were wonderful hosts. We will definitely be back!

Danny has done a great job anticipating a traveler's every need. The kitchen is VERY well equipped and there are lots of nice touches around the house (bath supplies, hiking books, DVDs to watch, etc). The house is cozy and the porch and yard are great places to enjoy the lovely setting. We very much enjoyed meeting Danny and Jenny who were generous with their time and garden bounty. Great stay!

I have stayed at many places through Airbnb over the years and by far this cottage has been one of my most enjoyable and memorable experiences. The location is absolutely stunning--nestled right next to a gentle creek and tucked away from any main road. The hosts live close enough if you need anything, but the cottage feels very private and peaceful. I stayed there with my husband for New Year's and it turned out to be the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The host, Danny, went above and beyond to provide any amenities that we might have needed for our two night stay. The inside of the cottage was impeccably clean, warm, and so comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked, and then some. Ample linens, blankets. We had everything we needed the whole weekend. Lots of fun extra stuff available as well--books, TV/DVDs, board games, and a great ping pong table! There is also a gorgeous waterfall within walking distance from the cottage. It was such a treat to step into nature for the new year and be greeted with such a gorgeous sight--rushing from a recent rain. The cottage is conveniently situated for a quick drive to Hot Springs to take in a relaxing soak (which we did!) and definitely close enough to Asheville for easy day trips. Most of all, I have to say--the host was so great! Top notch in terms of communication, helpfulness, check in, and providing pertinent info about the area. Thank you, Danny, for a perfect stay. Such fond memories. We hope to return one day and will recommend the cottage to anyone planning a trip to the area!

To say that we had an incredible time at this cottage is an understatement. When we arrived, there was a fruit basket waiting for us and Danny was just up the road and came down to welcome us! This cottage is the perfect distance away from Asheville where you don't feel like you are spending too much time in the car. The scenery is incredible! I could have sat out on the back porch listening to the stream and playing ping pong for hours! This was my boyfriend and my first vacation together and we have already said that we would like to come back!

This is an off the beaten path spot, but still close to Asheville. The setting is very scenic and peaceful. Danny was very accommodating with check in.

Absolutely loved our stay at Myra's cottage! The cabin was immaculate and even better than the photos depicted! Loved the peaceful surroundings, and the porch was our favorite place to relax....wish we could've stayed longer. The beds were super comfy, and we had everything we could ever need. Danny was super hospitable and we loved the all the veggies fresh from the garden, and the cabin was stocked with so many thoughtful extras! Danny was also super helpful and accommodating when we had car trouble on our departure day. We hope to return again!
