Beautiful, Love the views, simplicity and special touches.I'd read other reviews and wasn't surprised by neighborhood school's playground and baseball field noises, or the main house being fairly close (although I never saw the residents or any other houses for that matter). The dog stopping by was a lot of joy, as was sitting on the porch listening to song-birds and watching fireflies at night. Very much nestled in the woods of a very nice neighborhood. I'd love to reserve a long weekend at least 3-4x a year if I actually lived in any of the nearby cities! It's a perfect retreat from chaos.
Came to this lovely getaway while visiting from the Pac NW. The 10/10 stars are warranted. Space is delightful, surrounding property peaceful, host super responsive, and access to downtown Waxhaw just a short 10 minutes drive. Covered, screened in porch perfect for listening to birds & crickets. Blackout shades mean no waking before youâre ready. Would gladly stay again.
My wife and I loved it. Hosts were great! Perfect area. We like to hike and enjoyed several trails nearby. We also love to eat and enjoyed restaurants 10 minutes away.
We booked this little cabin because we were visiting family nearby. We arrived and returned in the dark each night. The cabin is lit up nicely, the hostâs recommendation to pull in rather than back in was much appreciated and followed.We didnât spend much time there during the day, so never explored the wooded lot. We did enjoy the view from the couch area and screened porch while having coffee in the morning.The cabin is well built and is tucked behind a home in a neighborhood. While the cabin is in sight of the home, shades are provided for all windows on that side for privacy. Based on the write-up from the host, we thought we would see their pets outside, but never did. We did get to watch squirrels and birds each morning.We always bring our own ground coffee when we travel, but this place didnât have a coffee pot for brewing. It did have a Nespresso machine and they provided 5 pods, which only gave us enough for 1 day. We are not familiar with the Nespresso and did purchase some at the grocery, but they didnât work in the machine because they were the wrong size/type. So be prepared for that.The cabin is near a school, so also be prepared to hear the loud noise of the game announcers. We didnât mind because it reminded us of being home, but if you expect quiet in the early evening, hope there isnât a game!We will book here again the next time we visit our family. It is in a great location for us and we really enjoyed the cabin.
We enjoyed our short stay in this cabin. It was such a beautiful cabin! The porch overlooked a grassy bottom field with a creek running thru that you could hear and where we seen deer come through to the neighboring property. We stayed here for the Nascar race in Charlotte, but wanted to feel like we were home and so we want to thank the Van Galens for opening their cabin up to us to stay in. You have a beautiful place and we highly recommend anyone to stay here.!
Sincerely,
Sean and Melissa Van Wie
This Property is amazing I went for some peace and quiet time and it was absolutely that and then some. The owners were very hospitable and just genuinely good people who really care about their guests and it shows from the time you enter the property. Cabin amongst the trees is a must have experience.
A great property. A little too suburban for us. The noise from the school and surrounding neighborhood was quite loud during the day and well into the evening.
My wife and I are so grateful to have found the perfect cabin to relax and spend the weekend together. Everything was so clean and thoughtful. We loved being greeted each morning by the cutest dog ever. We booked for a place to stay aftet a trip to Carowinds, and it looks like we'll be planning more trips to Carowinds in the future just to stay again! :)
Glad we found the Cabin in the Woods. Weâre coming home from Florida and did not want to stay in a motel. The cabin was very inviting, very clean, and bed was great. Loved the big picture windows to watch the deer. The owners were quick to answer our question. Great place to rest and relax.
Relaxing time with beautiful views of the woods. It rained a lot and watching the rain through the picture windows and the screened porch was very pretty.
Easy to find, park and close by several things.
Property was clean and quiet, exactly as the listing says. I had a question to the owner and they were prompt to respond. Highly recommend and I will be back if in the area again.
The Cabin Amongst the Trees provides a peaceful respite. It is well-designed and light, with many thoughtful touches throughout: cozy blankets, a unique footrest for the couch, LED reading lamps for the bedroom. Very comfortable.
