Sugar Cabin exceeded our expectations; very well stocked and super clean. The immense quiet was perfect. We stayed two weeks with the 2nd week giving us cool mornings and evenings. The fireplace was a treat! The proximity to waterfalls, hikes, sightseeing was perfect. Highly recommend.

Small but good

This is a nice, small cabin. The cabin was very clean when we arrived and getting in was easy. The roads to access the property are good and not too challenging for the mountains. The driveway is steep but short so as long as the weather is good there are no issues there. WiFi worked well and the gas logs were a great addition. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans if you want to cook, but Waynesville is just down the road if you prefer to eat out. Be aware that this cabin is in a neighborhood, so if you're looking for a secluded place this isn't it. If you don't mind other cabins/houses nearby this is a great choice that we would book again without any concerns.

Perfect for our needs

This little cabin was the ideal location for us to stay during a family gathering. Close enough to everyone that we could be together in 10 to 15 minutes but located on a lovely wooded stretch of road without a lot of traffic. We had everything we needed and the place was in top-notch condition. We would definitely stay here again!

This was my first time staying in a private home vs a hotel. I have nothing bad to say or nothing to suggest about this property. Our stay was perfect. All you need are your personal items and groceries if you want to stay in and relax. The porch was my favorite spot to be. Without a doubt; I would stay at this property again.

Magically Peaceful

My wife and I Had a very peaceful and relaxing time at this place. We had been touring the area from Charleston to Columbia to Charlotte and then to Ashville and it seemed like every where we went, it was chaos with the traffic, so coming to this cabin was definitely what we needed to get away from all the noise and bad drivers. This cabin sets in the perfect place if you just want peace and quiet. We watched the humming birds in the morning and enjoyed the fire flies at night. We couldn't have booked the more perfect place. Thank you Maria.

Everything Perfect Except the Pillows

Beautiful cabin, perfect for myself, my daughter, and son-in-law, for a few days. The welcome gift of a bottle of wine was a nice touch. The cabin was very clean, and everything worked. Relaxing on the porch was a bonus. Comfortable beds, horrible pillows. If you like a soft or feather pillow you will have to bring your own. The driveway is steep and room for only one car to turn around, room for two cars for parking at the top.
