Cabin on Ledford Branch w/ Waterfall + Wading Pool

Reviews

• 2/5

  While the waterfall and creek were absolutely amazing there are things that needed to be addressed. The AC would not get below 73/74 most days, some even 76. The solution from the owner was open windows and use the box fans…..while sure this seems like an easy fix but not acceptable for the amount of money you pay to stay here. It would get very humid in the cabin, our cups were “sweating” and our food would taste stale from the amount of humidity. We had ants in the kitchen the entire 5 day stay. The owner offered to have the Orkin bug person but we declined as we didn’t want to waste a day of our vacation due to his pest control issue. So all food and drinks had to stay on dinning room table. The septic is leaking outside that produces a horrible odor. And watch out for the nail between the 2 couches in the living room that needs to be re hammered into the floor, my father in law cut his foot on it walking barefoot.

  Our family really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect, with proximity to hiking trails and other activities in each direction.The pictures don't do the backyard justice, as it was amazing. Not a much better view for coffee or anything.....The house met our needs and the kitchen was equipped with all needs. Very relaxing and highly recommend. Host was very responsive as well.

  We had a nice time. We chose this property for the waterfall and our kids enjoyed playing in the water, which is shallow and safe. It was in a nice and quiet area. Shopping is close by.

  The location is beautiful and the host went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. He communicated so well you can tell he really cares for his guests. We are looking forward to staying here again.

  5/5

  Overall experience was wonderful! Never stayed in a place that had a waterfall in the backyard. Absolutely amazing. My grandson loved panning for "rocks" and playing in the water. I bet in mid-summer it is soooo refreshing. Though my granddaughter thought is was COLD, COLD, COLD! (relative to age I suspect - he's 5, she's 20!)

  I would recommend staying here for the waterfall experience alone.

  The house was pleasantly quirky and well stocked with appliances and any cooking utensil you may need. The grill worked great. To us the view and sound of the waterfall were just unapparelled!

  The A/C controls were programmed with set temps so I had to try to keep changing it to maintain a comfortable temperature for us (especially upstairs).

  You may want to bring your own toilet paper and towels. They only supply 1 ply TP. We could only find 6 towels (3 upstairs and 3 downstairs). 4 adults stayed for 6 nights.

  After driving over 8 hours we arrived about 35 mins earlier than the reservation check-in at 3. I did receive a txt from the owner that the house would be available at 1:00. The cleaning and prep service was there. This was absolutely no problem for us. She kindly let us put our groceries in the refrigerator and we said we would just enjoy the view until they finished. With that said, I'm not sure why there was a full size flat sheet with no fitted sheet on the queen bed (it did have a protector) , and a fitted sheet with no flat sheet on the king bed. I did find a closet full of bedding items, but too much to go through to find a complete set of sheets.

  Sorry to the service crew if we interrupted your work!

  Overall we had a marvelous time in such a beautiful part of North Carolina.

  From the owner: "Hi Cynthia, we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, and especially the incredible waterfall experience! We apologize that you experienced some issues during your trip. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - They’ve already placed an order for new towels and washcloths, and they’re keeping a closer eye on inventory to prevent future shortages.
  - They’ll be touching base with the cleaning crew to ensure each stay is stocked with enough toilet paper.
  - They’re also looking into the sheets situation to make sure everything meets guest expectations moving forward.
  Thanks for taking the time to leave your review!"
