About the host
Hi, I'm Michael. I want to thank you for thinking about booking the property. I started vacationing in the North Carolina mountains about 10 years ago while in college at Auburn University. Drawn in by the hiking, snow tubing, and escape from the Southern summer heat, I came to love this area and shared it often with my family and friends. There are tons of fun and adventures to experience at this cabin. But above it all, I just want my guests to have a memorable time that they can look back on

Very clean and everything as advertised. The amenities (expresso machine) were a nice touch. And the improvements to the porch allowed us to stay outside late into the night without worrying about bugs or rain. Michael was great with communication-quick and responsive and happy to give additional recommendations for a Neighboring town.
The cabin was excellent in every way. The property is private and has a beautiful view of the mountains. We enjoyed sunsets and watched the clouds and weather move in from the newly expanded covered back deck. The cover provided shade and allowed us to sit outside and watch the rain move through. The grilling/picnic area was convenient for us as we like to stay in some days and enjoy a meal while we take in the view. Inside the cabin had everything we needed and was very clean. The kitchen was well stocked, and the cabin had all the other amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were comfortable and the shades throughout kept the cabin at comfortable temperature. The town of Marion is a real gem. We visited shops, restaurants, and the greenway path at the Joseph McDowell historical center, The cabin is only a couple of miles from town and made travel to Marion and surrounding areas like Black Mountain very convenient. We visited hiking trails and the beech at lake James. Michael is a great host. He provided a handy digital guide before our arrival. Check-in was flawless. Michael also made sure that we had everything we needed during our stay. Overall this was an excellent experience, and we will stay again in the future.
Wonderful views and a very comfortable cabin for a short stay!
Amazing place to stay. The view from the backyard is amazing! I would definitely come back here again. The host was very quick to respond to my questions. My family loved the game room on the first floor.
This is an incredible property with stunning views and tones of amenities to make your stay enjoyable. My husband and 2 kids had a great time here it was the perfect place, and we can't wait to come back. I highly recommend it!
This is an AMAZING, FABULOUS family vacation spot. The home is meticulously maintained with mint condition accommodations and thoughtful amenities. Our kids loved the game room and played air hockey, pool, and watched hockey on the TV every chance they could. When not downstairs, they loved roasting marshmallows at the fire pit and playing frisbee in the beautiful back yard with STUNNING views and privacy. My husband and I loved coffee on the back deck in the morning and sunsets are beyond remarkable. We were able to see the Linville Caverns. Linville falls, jet ski on Lake James and hike Toms Creek falls to the water fall and highly recommend those to visitors (all of which were close drives from the home). The host, Michael, is wonderful!!! He was so generous, courteous, and went out of his way on multiple occasions to accommodate our family and ensure we had the best stay. We give the Appalachian Dream Cabin highest regards!!!
The view from the beautiful home is extraordinary! Great communication from the host! We had a wonderful experience and have already talked about renting here again in the future!
Our stay was fantastic. The host provided excellent communication, and the property was clean and well stocked. My wife and I had such a peaceful and comfortable stay. Would definitely visit again!
