Our family stayed at Mountain Serenity and wow we were Shocked at just how Perfect this cabin was. Our family with seven kids in their twenties had Plenty of room. The layout was amazing. The downstairs was HUGE with so much room for cozy seating in large leather couches. Itâs set up for games and there is a clean, fun hot tub youâll love. The bedrooms are Spacious with very comfortable beds, and thereâs so much to do in the area. Thereâs a trout pond to fish in, hiking with beautiful overlooks, and a heated pool. This cabin and the area will surely meet all your needs just like it did ours. Oh yea and there is a Huge deck with a large table, cosy seating and even a hammock. I think we will try to book again for Christmas. Thanks Mountain Serenity.
We loved the cabin especially for a summer visit since there is no upstairs dining area other than the kitchen island. It's a beautiful well-kept space that we found to be very clean upon arrival. Check-in was super easy. Beds were definitely comfortable; outside patio was a highlight with great seating options; hot tub was a hit and kitchen was well-equipped especially for coffee-lovers (Keurig, full pot options but better yet, French Press and Pour-over options too - bring your own coffee grinder though). Our hosts communication was excellent both in advance as well as throughout the week and their touches throughout the cabin were noticed like outlets with nightlights throughout, labeling on the outlets for easy knowledge of "whats-what", info on the area and Asheville, and plenty of towels and basics provided throughout the cabin. We had 9 of us for a few days as friends joined us and the sleeping/bathroom situation worked well even with that many. Wolf Laurel amenities were as described; one note is that the pool is a bit on the smaller size. The Community Center staff was very helpful with suggestions. There area numerous hikes within Wolf Laurel itself. Don't miss going up to Bald Mountain for sunset! Also the Waterfall Loop Trail was like having a private waterfall hike. The day we went, there was no one else on the trail. Very beautiful and quiet. One final note is that a good portion of the roads to get to hiking (including Bald Mtn) are gravel.
This is the second time we stayed in the Wolf Laurel community. Mountain Serenity was just perfect - it was clean and communication with the host was easy. The cabin is very spacious. My 16 year old daughter and her best friend commandeered the basement. It was perfect for them. The kitchen was VERY well stocked. All 3 bathrooms had body wash, shampoo and conditioner if you donât want to pack your own. The hot tub worked well.
The location is perfect. You have access to the AT and you have to drive to the top and take the easy hike to Big Bald at sunset. Itâs breathtaking! Make sure to dress warmly - even with 90° days the temp at 5500 ft elevation at dusk was cool. Mountain Serenity also comes with access to the pool, tennis and pickleball courts.
We were close enough to Asheville that it was easy to drive in for lunch or dinner and shopping.
We also rafted the Nolichucky River with Wahoo Rafting out of Erwin, TN and had a fabulous trip!
We enjoyed our stay in Tomicaâs cabin. The amenities provided more than we needed and made for a great weekend getaway. We would definitely consider returning if we are in the area again!
