Peaceful Getaway

Vacation Date: July 28, 2025

"It was a peaceful get away just like we had planned. Was prepared for “curvy roads” but not being able to turn in the driveway except for passing it and turning around to go in the other direction. Thankfully we were able to turn around at the neighbors driveway up the hill. Hope they didn’t mind! That was the only way in the drive with a large SUV.

Beautiful! BUT the road is not for the faint of heart!

Vacation Date: December 24, 2024

"The cabin is really beautiful, clean, and as described. Communication the Yonder team was friendly and fast! As others have stated, the drive up the mountain is not to be dismissed, especially after the recent storm. At points it is single lane, no guardrail switchbacks. “Don’t drive it at night” is a rule for locals, not just tourists. There is basically no cell service. It was a little unnerving being off the grid at times, especially considering the road. I was able to connect to the satellite outside, sometimes, on a clear night. But the cabin really is beautiful, comfortable and well appointed. It is a great spot to really get away in complete comfort. The dog run is nice and secure, having it right off the bedroom is perfect! We were really disappointed we couldn’t stay due to the Nature of our trip and lack of access after dark.Will definitely look for other Yonder properties in our travels!

Absolutely Wonderful

Vacation Date: September 9, 2025

"Our stay at this mountain cabin was absolutely wonderful. The cabin itself is cozy, spotless, and thoughtfully decorated, with all the modern comforts you’d want while still feeling rustic and tucked away in nature. The views from the porch are breathtaking—especially at sunrise with a cup of coffee in hand.The kitchen was well-stocked, making it easy to cook meals, and the fireplace created the perfect atmosphere for relaxing evenings. The location strikes a great balance: private and peaceful, yet only a short drive to hiking trails, local shops, and restaurants.Our host was fantastic—responsive, friendly, and clearly attentive to the details that make a stay memorable.We left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet retreat in the mountains!

It was well equipped with all the things we needed to settle in comfortably. We spent most of our time outside hunting for acorns and bugs. It was a short ride to the farmers market, town of Tryon and the Skytop Orchard. We would 100% stay here again!

Best friends getaway!

Vacation Date: July 18, 2025

"We have been friends for over 50 years. This home was perfect for us - clean and well kept. We enjoyed the porch for morning coffee and planning our excursions for the day and the evening on the porch with our wine laughing and reminiscing of experiences we've had along the way. When we were told the drive to the house was very curvy and in spots only one lane - they meant that. I have driven mountain roads before and this was a little more curvy than the others but I did fine. TAKE IT SLOW!!! The only problem we encountered was making the turn into the driveway - we had to pass the drive and go on up to turn around so we could enter from the other direction. We all enjoyed our stay!

"If you're not afraid of winding mountain roads this one was PERFECT!! You have to pass the driveway, turn around, then come back & enter drive way. We walked in and instantly we were not disappointed. I could have spent my entire vacation in the home & on the property. It was clean, comfortable, & thoughtfully supplied. I wasn't ready to end my vacation & leave. We spent our evenings in front of the fireplace planning our next day excursions. In the morning I drank my coffee on the porch in the crisp mountain air while listening to the birds rush around in thier morning routines. We needed a extension on our checkout time & we were able to achieve that without issue. I would highly recommend this property to anyone. Thank you for the wonderful visit. Sincerely, D. Johnson

"Enjoyed the cabin. Great experience with Yonder rentals. They were friendly and accommodating to our needs. Stayed in Natures Den. Very secluded cabin. Beautiful waterfall on way up the mountain. One of the best we’ve seen. Overlook view is breathtaking towards the top. Roads are tight for larger vehicle though. Took about 10 min up the mountain to reach the cabin. Very small town. Pet friendly. The master bedroom was huge. Other bedroom could use upgrade in bed frame. Headboard is falling over towards head while sleeping. Tvs could also use upgrade in size for distance of watching. Overall great cabin and great experience.

I recommend at least the first day arriving while it's daylight as it's very secluded but that's what makes it so beautiful. The kids loved seeing the deer, bunnies, hedgehogs and lightening bugs.
