A wonderful getaway! This cabin and the surrounding Reserve are so perfect for a family, we really enjoyed our stay and would love to plan a trip back. The cabin layout worked well for us, with all three bedrooms downstairs and a spacious living area upstairs. The beds were very comfortable, the water was hot, everything was immaculately clean, the kitchen was full of all the essentials. Communication with the hosts was simple and straightforward. They thought of it all! The Reserve is beautiful, with so much to explore right out your front door. There are several National Parks within 30 min - it's just such a good location to get out onto the trails and see the countless waterfalls in the area. The cabin is also very close to town so it's easy to get groceries, coffee, etc as needed. Highly recommend staying here!
Such a beautiful cabin!! We LOVED all of the special touches and thought that went into the wonderful space!! Our kids loved the kayaking and canoeing and our dog got plenty of activity chasing white squirrels :)The bamboo forest was magical and we just all had such a wonderful time!!
We had an absolutely wonderful time! We loved the cabin and its location. The hammocks, bamboo forest and all of the trails right around the cabin were perfect. We saw 3 bears next to our cabin on our last night. It was a magical week. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. We loved the coffee bar as well. Thank you!
We loved our week long stay at the little log cabin. It was perfect for two couples, a kid, and a couple of dogs. We spent a lot of time on the spacious porch and deck overlooking the ponds, and the trails were great for morning and afternoon walks. There is a good bit to do on the property itself, and it is in a great location with town and Dupont Forest being close by. Everything about the cabin was as advertised, and the owners were friendly and accommodating.
Recommend staying at this beautiful Reserve. Your definitely missing out if you pass this up ! Owners have thought of everything on this 125 acre reserve. 5 minutes from downtown Brevard. They have a cabin for everyone, groups small or large.
Great place to bring your dogs, next time we will. Check out their Bamboo Forest and take a spin on the kayak or canoe on the lake.
Great Stay !! 10 Stars
We had a fantastic time at the Deerwoode Reserve! Our family used the kayaks on the lake, and our boys took a quick dip in the swimming hole. The bamboo forest was unique and fun to walk through. The cabin was lovely and better than we expected. The Reserve was so peaceful, and we enjoyed beginning each day with coffee on the deck overlooking the lake. The owners were extremely friendly and welcoming. We are already making plans to come back in the fall!
