On the tech front, please note that rural internet is a thing! We are fortunate to have good reception from a T-Mobile home internet system, but internet access can be spotty at times and multiple users or upload-heavy (outgoing) content is more difficult. So that means no Zoom meetings while on vacay, folks!

A newly-installed EV charge outlet is available for charing your electric car - a Level 2 NEMA 14-50R outlet. Guests are asked to bring their own cords/plugs.

Downtown Asheville is just minutes away!

Located amidst gorgeous rolling pastures, only 20 mins to Downtown Asheville! Also a quick drive to local breweries, beautiful hikes, Chimney Rock & Lake Lure, this gorgeous cabin is the perfect landing spot to enjoy all of WNC!

The cabin is located at the end of a gravel road that winds gently through pastureland as you approach the cabin. Four-wheel drive vehicles are suggested during periods of heavy inclement weather, and for exploring the Asheville-area mountains in general. Guests are responsible for tracking expected weather during their stay and planning accordingly. Refunds will not be given for weather-related changes/cancellations outside of our already-generous cancellation policy.

We live nearby and are always just a dm or phone call away. We love hosting and are here for you!

-Please review the lease agreement which becomes binding at booking under “House Rules”.

-This cabin is our family's personal vacation home. Due to our children's severe allergies, pets are not allowed. Thank you for respecting their health and safety, and keeping our little ones out of the hospital!

-Due to insurance liability, we are unable to rent to anyone under 25 years old. There must be someone at least 25 years old present in order to rent our home, and photo ID will be required prior to check-in. New users to the Airbnb platform will be greeted in person at check-in to verify identity and IDs.

-No parties allowed! Parties are strictly banned across the entire Airbnb platform. Also, we are in a quiet residential community. Neighbors will not hesitate to report excessive noise to the police and to us. Immediate eviction with *no refund* will result if there is a party on the property.

-T-Mobile has the best reception in the cabin. Verizon gets only a little, and is best outdoors. AT&T is somewhere in the middle. Please plan accordingly.

-Please note that the fireplace is equipped with an electric insert that will not burn wood. We have also just installed a gorgeous new forest firepit outside! Please feel free to burn any sticks found on the forest floor (there are lots!), or firewood can be purchased down the road at nearby Food Lion Market. Please keep fires small and contained only within the metal fire ring.

-Bears live on the land and are frequent visitors. They are awfully cute, but please don't approach. They will leave you alone if you leave them alone, and never get between a mama bear and her cubs! They are clever and know how to open house and car doors, even the hot tub cover. Lock all doors/covers, and don't leave any food in your car, or you may encounter a furry surprise!

-Nature abounds in the forest! Wooded areas are home to critters such as but not limited to bears, deer, squirrels, rodents, spiders, ants, and insects. We are contracted with a pest control company with regularly scheduled treatments... but alas, Mother Nature reigns, and bugs and critters thrive out here. Please understand the possibility of seeing critters in and around the home, and that their presence does not entitle the guest to a refund.

-For guests arriving in winter, early spring or late fall, please be mindful of the weather. Our privately maintained road is about a half-mile of gentle, curving gravel with a few up and down spots. A 4-wheel drive or AWD vehicle is recommended in winter weather.

-No smoking in the house. If you need to smoke, please do so outside and properly dispose of waste. Take care to ensure embers are not left to smolder in forest leaf pilings or other flammable surfaces.

-Free WiFi is included. Do not unplug or alter the router or modem or any electronic devices in any way. Before checking out please remember to log out of streaming services if you used them with your account (Netflix, Disney, etc.). Please note spotty wifi in the Listing Description above.

-Maximum capacity is strictly limited to 8 folks, including children, at all times. The cabin is on a septic system (like much of the local area), so exceeding capacity would mean an overloaded septic system, which means open sewage issues which... ew. Nobody wants that.

-Guests routinely comment on the "sparkling" cleanliness achieved by our very hardworking cleaning team. Everyone is human, though, so please let us know if anything is amiss immediately upon check-in.

-Before checking out we ask guests to lock the hot tub, leave beds messy, place trash in garbage bins in the bear-proof enclosure, put dirty dishes in the dishwasher and start it, and lock the doors when leaving.

-To protect your vacation investment, we encourage you to purchase travel insurance. No refunds will be given due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

-Security devices on premises: Ring Doorbell cam at front door, Ring Floodlight cam facing driveway and parking area, NoiseAware audio noise monitors indoors and outdoors
No pets due to family allergies
No smoking or vaping indoors. Smoking waste must be disposed of properly and not allowed to smolder on the ground; the cabin is in a high fire danger zone.
Please be respectful of the neighbors and reduce noise and light volume between 10pm and 8am
No parties
Never approach bears
Keep all doors locked
No climbing trees
Please remove shoes inside the house
