Great mountain getaway

Comfortable cabin with an awesome view... we loved being in the hot tub taking in the scenery or just sitting on the deck listening to the quiet and watching the sun go down. The cabin has a good selection of books and a great table for puzzles. There is some good eating in the village nearby. Our car made it up the hill just fine, but lower riding cars might have some issues.

Little slice of Heaven

Peaceful, secluded, absolutely perfect. Has all of the modern amenities, wifi, TVs in living room and bedroom. I only mention those things cause they are there, but you will find yourself enjoying just sitting on the back porch, probably the most relaxing little cabin. 10/10

Little Switzerland Cabin

My husband and I had a lovely stay in Little Switzerland. It was great meeting the owner Rick at the post office because it would have been kinda tricky to find the house without an escort. The view and peaceful setting were spectacular. House is super clean and perfect for a couple. There were tons of nice fluffy towels and washcloths. I always hate it when there aren’t ample washcloths! The hot tub is very clean and we enjoyed it on our last night. For your planning purposes: I did not find coffee but there is a coffee pot. Walmart is about 5 miles away but it takes longer to get there than you would expect. I would bring snacks to enjoy with the bottle of wine Rick greets you with. I would also bring my own pillow as I prefer 2 and a cozy blanket for hanging out on the porch enjoying the sunrise and sunset. Highly recommend this property!

Ruined honeymoon

We booked this place for the view, as I imagine most do. The view is lovely and that is about all that was good. You have to plan out your check in day around meeting the host, which is odd as most places have a number code entry. He then takes you on an extended, unnecessary tour that wastes your precious time. On top of this, there was no water pressure when we arrive, back doors do not lock, and 2 of 4 heaters did not work. It was quite cold when we arrived as well. We contacted the host to come fix the water, which he tried to do but was unsuccessful. We did not want to spend our honeymoon evening with a stranger so we requested the water to be fixed the following day. We had our first evening ruined as we hiked all day and wanted to shower to head out for the evening, but we unable to do so. The drive to the house is not the most pleasant so do be aware. It is a very mountain style, one lane road. Due to the inconveniences we had our first night, we asked for a partial refund and have been denied by the host. Be catious with this property and contact VRBO immediately with concerns. Use the app to communicate as well, not his cell. Do note, there is a health and safety ticket against this property with VRBO as well.

Respite from the heat and “city”

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Pinewoods Cabin. The view was spectacular and the cabin had everything we needed to relax. Rick was easy to communicate with and available if anything came up. We loved the proximity of Little Switzerland and the Blueridge Parkway.

Beautiful views

The house was nice and the views were beautiful. We enjoyed the hot tub and there was plenty of towels and wash cloths. It was a very positive experience. We had to meet the person at the local post office and follow them to the house. Not a big deal but we first were not going to be arriving until late the first night and felt odd about having to do this so we took off earlier than planned. That being said, when we plan weekend get aways we want to be able to stop and go as we please. It may not have been a big deal for them to meet us late but I personally like being able to just receive a key or key code and arrive when we want.

Great Private Getaway!

My husband and I traveled here on our anniversary and this cabin was perfect! Very private with a great view! We absolutely love Little Switzerland and will keep this place on our list!! It was just as described ~ very clean and definitely comfortable!! Also centrally located to all we planned to do!! The only advice I have for the owners is to get better lighting in at least one of the bathrooms ~ while it’s awesome mood lighting it’s hard to see to get ready (especially for the ladies). I carried a lighted mirror with me so I managed! Thanks for a great vacation!!♥️

Gorgeous views from the deck of this property! We enjoyed being tucked in to the side of the mountain on a dead end road! The house had everything we needed and offered spectacular views both day and night! Rick was an excellent host and communicator. We really enjoyed the hot tub after hiking and exploring the area! We would definitely return!

A Little Slice of Heaven in Little Switzerland!

This cabin was all we hoped it would be and more! The road back in is a great little gravel road that twists and turns, but once you first drive it, you've got it and it is a breeze! Rick met us at the Post Office and we followed him to the house. So glad as we probably wouldn't have found it. It is totally private with a cozy living room with pretty stone fireplace, a dining area, and very workable kitchen, two bathrooms and a laundry room in one of them. The view is absolutely breathtaking from the large open deck. The mountains change with the time of the day and the weather and we could sit and watch them forever! The hot tub on the deck is a wonderful way to end the day gazing at the sunset and the mountains fading into the dark. The little town - population of approx. 50 people, is delightful as well. There is a general store, an amazing book store that goes on and on in a great little building with a super gift shop and coffee shop with lattes and baked goodies. The cafe has wonderful BBQ and slaw sandwiches as well as other choices and soups, etc. The Little Switzerland Inn has a great restaurant and there are some fun shops and a super icecream store there. It is right around corner from the general store and post office. The Blue Ridge Parkway goes right past the back of the house and you travel it to get most anywhere. The town of Spruce Pine is a short drive away with a super Walmart, drugstore, restaurants, etc. We played golf at the local golf course and that was beautiful. Don't miss Little Switzerland Orchard winery, ciders, and brewery just down the road. We tried all the different kinds of cider with their flights and took some growlers home with us. The maple/bacon is outstanding! Also stop at the Mineral Museum as it is very interesting. We hope to get back this way again as it truly was a magical stay. Thank you Rick!
