Ethan and Morgan’s visit
Very nice. Was sent great directions from the host about things to do in the surrounding area. Was also given a welcoming present from their local bakery, which was a nice touch. House was clean and everything worked inside. Overall a great place to stay!

Cozy and unique
Super location and cozy place. We loved the woody surroundings with the beautiful laurels. Please know the bedroom is located upstairs, and the bathroom downstairs, so that may be an issue for some people.

Great weekend getaway
This property is fairly secluded in the woods and was a peaceful stay. Would recommend. The property manager left us some welcoming items, which was a nice touch.

The cabin is not ideal for older people. Parking is difficult as you have to back into a spot on a curve and hill in the driveway. The bedroom is upstairs and the bath is downstairs. It was not dirty but needs some TLC. The owners were very nice and helped with a couple of issues that came up. The cabin had all the supplies we needed. It was a good location. Town was close by with a lot of shops and places to eat. Loved Black Mountain.

Absolutely beautiful Cabin
We were in awe of the detail of this cabin. From the welcoming gate to an outdoor bar/firepit to the exquisite detail of every turn inside the cabin, we just loved it! The overall feel is very secluded but it's located a short 1.5 miles to fantastic dining, shops and local fare. Directly across the road from a golf course made lovely walked for our Frenchie in the mornings. We have already recommended and will definitely return when we are in the area!

Perfect Peaceful Retreat
My stay at the Migration Station was exactly what I needed. Just outside of town so that felt surrounded by nature yet had access to stores and the like as needed. The house itself is beautiful, from the porch overlook to the wood inlays throughout the rest of the house. Communication with the owner was always quick in terms of response time and helpful. My stay was too short and I look forward to staying here again in the future.

Great way to end 2022
We loved winding down from Christmas and preparing for the new year over a couple of days here. Black mountain was lovely, as was the comfy and warm cabin. Very grateful!

Beautiful home and great setting!
We had a wonderful time in this unique home. The house was in awesome shape and the owners even provided us with complimentary wine and bread! The setting was so lovely and we hiked daily. There is a lot to do close by in Black Mountain! We'd stay here again!
