"Hey "Mom & Dad" I'm Home! Thanks for keeping my 'room' so cool for me! Be back for supper. Gone to find work.(promised 'Dad'!) with Love, your 51 year old 'son' & his old lady, Carmen! All joking aside, you two- only think anyone could ever say about the place or the obvious love put into it is, 'Wow!'"

"Dear Ken & Elaine, We have had such a wondeful time here. It's hard to leave. You are probably one of the nicest couples we've ever met and your beautiful, sweet grandchildren were so much fun! This cabin is really a piece of art. You can tell you really put your heart and soul into building it and it's so awesome that you are kind enough to share it w/ others. We will definately make this an annual trip so look forward to getting to know you more years ahead!. We wish you and your family the best, of health, & happiness and many blessings! Thank again, Ken, Elaine, Liam, Shannon, & Sean. We can't wait to return next winter if not sooner! God Bless, Love"

Thank you so much for allowing our family to stay in your beautiful cabin. We have really enjoyed our time here, and the comfort of your cabin made it a wonderful vacation.

Our stay in your cabin was pleasant & we appreciate your hospitality and kindness. We thank the Lord most of all for the wonderful week that we spent here.

"Dear Elaine & Ken,

We fell in love with your cabin the moment we pulled in the driveway. When we opened the front door of the cabin, the warm glow of the fireplace greeted us and we were in awe of all the personal touches you've added to make it instantly feel like a home away from home. We would like to thank you for your kindness and for making our honeymoon week extra special. We can't wait to return to such a special place!"

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful cabin. I know how much effort and heart you have put into this place. We hope to get back this way again. Hope you can find a place for the wind chime!"

Thank you! Yes, the beautiful chime you gave us hangs on the porch..gently tinkling in the wind.

Ron and Amy lived in The Cabin from November 1, 2003 until July 6, 2004, while they were waiting for their new house to be built. They commented that it was ‘wonderful’. They said the gas log stove was ‘just right’, and that they were very comfortable the whole season. We wish them much happiness in their new home!

"Ken and Elaine,

We so thoroughly enjoyed your cabin for the last six months. Late fall/winter/early spring are beautiful times in your mountains. And, it was a great base from which to explore the many treasures that western North Carolina boasts -- Asheville -- the many waterfalls -- Waynesville -- Cherokee -- the Blue Ridge Parkway -- the Great Smoky Mountains -- the Pisgah National forest -- Cataloochee -- Black Mountain -- Cashiers -- Highlands -- Dillsboro -- Hendersonville -- Hot Springs and I could go on. All within an hour and a half and most much less. And we were always warm and snug during the colder months and slept wonderfully in the queen size bed.

We also enjoyed getting to know both of you and the family and look forward to coming back as we embark upon locating in western North Carolina -- either permanently or for a second home."

"Dear Ken and Elaine, Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us. It made our trip extra special. We look forward to coming back soon. May God Bless You."
