A Therapeutic Recharge Whether it is to get away for a long weekend (there is a 3-night minimum stay) or a relaxing vacation, step inside Mountain Moments, and you will feel your stress melt away. The wall of windows, stone fireplace, and hardwood walls and floors of the great room give an instant feeling of warmth and comfort. Just imagine enjoying a gorgeous sunset while relaxing in front of a blazing fire. Dine indoors or on a stone patio (gas grill) in the mountain air, with a fire pit to keep you warm.

My family and I loved our stay at the cabin. The serene and beautiful views of the mountains truly made our visit unforgettable. We spent most of our time on the patio, enjoying the wonderful hammock and fire pit, which we used frequently throughout our stay. Everything was perfect, and check-in and check-out were hassle-free. We would definitely recommend this cabin to our friends and family. Thank you Carolina Properties for providing such a lovely getaway!

The house was exactly as shown in the pictures, and even better in person. We stayed here to celebrate New Year’s Eve, and it was an exceptional experience. The location is peaceful and private, yet only about 20 minutes from Marion, which made it very convenient. The home is beautifully furnished and immaculately clean, with crisp linens, excellent water pressure in the bathrooms, a stunning fireplace, and a fantastic BBQ area. Everything felt thoughtfully designed and incredibly comfortable. All of my friends were extremely happy with the house, and it truly exceeded our expectations. A perfect place for a relaxing and memorable stay - we would absolutely return and highly recommend it
