"Planned a short getaway to hike Mount Mitchell and this place could not have been more perfectly located to the trailhead. The Lodge is newly built, and ground are impeccably well maintained. The staff was super helpful. They even came by to drop off a lighter so the firepit could be put to use. They have a common use area with a ktichen and grills that can be utilized which is an added bonus as I don’t recall reading about all they had available to make the stay above and beyond expectations....

"This was an amazing place to just sit on the porch and relax. It was so homey and comfortable. It rained a good bit during our stay so hearing that on the metal roof was perfect. We enjoyed it immensely. You really don’t need to bring anything other than food and clothes. It is very well stocked with everything you need. Although you are up in the mountains away from everything, Hendersonville is 10 minutes away, with groceries and restaurants being even closer. Enjoy."

"Really nice place! The property is beautiful. Great view of the golf course and mountains from our patio! Staff was very polite and accommodating. The only small issue was that it’s listed as a 2BDR, but it’s just 2 beds in the same room. Wasn’t a big deal, the kids just got to stay up past their bedtime. I would definitely recommend this place, and I plan to come back to play the golf course, which looked amazing."
