This was an amazing long weekend. We arrived late Friday night so it was pitch black and being from Florida, the hills and mountains were a little intimating to drive at night. I am so glad we made it! It was worth it. The communication from the owner was incredible. She made sure that every aspect of the trip was great. She has an amazing little craft shop on the property that my mom shopped at. The view was breath taking. It was quiet and a great change of pass from our daily lives. 3 people stayed at the home and there was plenty of room for everyone to do their thing. It was clean and there were ample supplies. My only compliant is that we checked out on Monday, September 15th and it has been just over 10 days and I have not been refunded my security deposit which was quite large. We followed the instructions for check out and left the home clean. I have not been contacted about any issues or damage (which there was none). I will be checking in on that, but I will certainly stay there again.

Perfect retreat!

The cabin was close enough to all the things we wanted to do over Father's Day weekend, yet felt very secluded. Everything was as advertised; would love to come stay again, especially in the fall or winter.

I can’t say enough positive things about our stay at Songbird! It was everything we dreamed of for our “Christmas Mountain Trip”. Bianca is the best host we have ever had. The songbird cabin is so cozy. We hoped for snow during our stay & we got it! The views were amazing! This is definitely our new favorite cabin and we are already planning our next trip!

Perfect getaway

My wife and I stayed at the songbird cabin for the week to get away from the city and could not have picked a better place. The location is beautiful, quiet and only 30 mins from Boone. The cabin itself was cozy, comfortable, and clean. It has everything you need to grill outside on the deck and enjoy the views. It was a wonderful experience and we can't wait to come back.

Great little getaway

Just the right size for two people, far enough away from civilization for some peace and quiet but not too far away to make it inconvenient. Very well maintained, updated.

This was a cozy, comfortable cabin with amazing, changing mountain views. A great location to get away, while still being able to drive to restaurants, wineries, breweries, and many hiking options if you choose (we chose to eat in during the pandemic).

Always a great visit

This was our fourth stay at Songbird Cabin and it was as lovely as ever. Could not ask for a more well equipped and clean cabin, it feels like a cabin without lacking any modern amenities or conveniences. Looking through the guestbook it is clear that we are not the only family that comes back year after year! Bianca was a great host, highly recommend a stay.
