We had a wonderful time in Cherry Log, Blue Ridge was great and lots of hiking around. Great pre Christmas vacation! We saw squirrels, turkeys, and deers. Loved the cabin all decorated for Christmas, cozy and beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful break, just what we needed!

Nice home that was cozy but had everything we needed. Clean, nice bedrooms. Close to blue ridge. It is pretty far back on a gravel road but otherwise location was great.

The cabin was as described and we had a comfortable and relaxing visit. Unfortunately while we were there it was during Hurricane Helene so we weren't able to enjoy the firepit and hot tub. We enjoyed watching the deer. Would go back again.
