The apartment was much bigger than expected. Clean and modern. Had everything we needed and more. Lots of natural light coming through the sliding glass doors. The location was secluded with nice mountain views yet only an 11 minute drive to town. Would definitely stay there again.

Fantastic cozy cabin suite!

We absolutely loved this rental. It was quiet and isolated yet quite close to downtown Brevard and lots of great hikes. The property was spacious and well-appointed and the bed is super comfortable. Would definitely stay here again on our next trip to the area!

Suite is very nice and has super well stocked kitchen. Everything was very clean and directions from host were easy and they were very responsive to all my questions. My kids and I enjoyed the guest binder full of useful information and things to see and do. We saw multiple waterfalls and visited the local famers market.

Spacious and pleasant walk-out basement apartment in a secluded area in the middle of nature! Not far from downtown Brevard NC and Looking Glass Falls, we enjoyed exploring the area.The furniture and especially the bed was most comfortable! Neat, tidy, and clean…and did I mention very affordable! We stayed August 25-29th. I would definitely look forward to staying there again!
