My husband and I came straight to the cabin after our wedding and we couldn't have picked a better honeymoon getaway! The cabin and its views were the perfect romantic setting!
The house and surrounding were beautiful and well kept. Everything that we could possibly need was provided, just needed to go food shopping. We miss the morning sunrises and evening sunsets. We will definitely return and stay again.
We stayed here for my husband's birthday and it was just what we needed. Communication with owner was easy and prompt. The cabin and property are beautiful and really give you that tranquil, relaxed, cabin getaway!!
This cabin was amazing for me and my girlfriend. Beautiful view waking up every morning and easy drive to Ashville. Would recommend to anyone and we will for sure be back!
The cabin is absolutely idyllic, the views from the front porch over the blue ridge mountains are so peaceful. The accommodations in the cabin were excellent for a family of four!
we really enjoyed our stay in this cute little cabin. The views were incredible and the wildlife was tremendous turkeys, cows, groundhogs, rabbits. we would definitely stay here again.
All in all, everything was pretty easy, to finding the location, checking in, and having everything pretty much stocked for us throughout the house. I would highly recommend anyone to staying here, simply for the quiet and peace of mind alone.
We found exactly what we were looking for: An oasis of serenity to unwind, a getaway from the summer heat of TX reminding us very much of sceneries in the Blackforrest in Germany.Adding to our memories was a nice chat with Mrs Lutz, the owner who showed us her miniature horses.
Everything we saw on the internet and more! Close to all the local attraction yet still secluded and peaceful. I highly recommend and will likely go again!
Tranquility Knoll was a cozy and comfortable cabin for our trip to the Asheville area. We loved the view and the cabin was everything we had expected. We had a great stay and loved being able to stay in a quiet area.
I enjoyed being close to Asheville but also out in the country close to nature with beautiful views of the mountains. The cabin was quiet, peaceful and had everything that I needed for a pleasant stay.
We loved everything about this property and our stay. Cozy, quiet, clean— just what we hoped for. Special thanks for the breakfast spot recommendation! Yummy.
Very clean and quiet property. Everything you may need was furnished. One of the nicest places we have stayed in and we are a couple who travels a lot.
A fun way to start your vacation! Wake up in a cozy cabin, enjoy your coffee on the front porch, while watching the beautiful cows pass in the neighboring pasture.
This was our second time staying at the cabin and it was even better than I remembered. I loved sitting on the front porch and heading out back to see the cows. We had everything we needed to relax before heading into Asheville
What an awesome long weekend we had in this adorable cozy cabin that had everything we needed! We kept warm by the gas stove inside the cabin and even built a fire in the fire pit outside the cabin so that we could take in the beautiful surrounding view where the cabin sits. We will definitely be going back for a longer stay in the future.
Great location. The cabin was clean and comfortable. Very accessible to the Blue Ridge Mountains and other nearby attractions. The property was very well equipped if you plan to prepare your own meals.
Very relaxing to sit on the porch in the evening and enjoy the beautiful views.
Highly recommend.
