Unforgettable mountain house
We loved our stay at The Gathering Place! The cabin was spotless and looked just like the photos. Beds were so comfortable — best sleep we've had in a while. It's tucked away and private, with beautiful mountain views. The deck is massive and honestly the best part of the whole cabin — so much space to spread out, and the hot tub at sunset was the highlight of the trip. The inside is well thought out too — a cozy spot to curl up with a book, a great table for meals together, and a game room with pool table and ping pong that kept everyone entertained. Check-in was easy and the whole place just felt well taken care of. We'll definitely be back!

Amazing Carolina Getaway!
Beautiful cabin retreat with amazing views and easy access to the downtown Burnsville area with plenty of restaurants, and shops. This is a beautiful cabin with exceptional curb appeal. The inside has a great layout that had plenty of space for our family to spread out and enjoy the amenities. The wrap around porch allowed us to soak in the views and fresh air. We will book again!

Burnsville Beauty
This vacation was a perfect mountain getaway. The home was beautiful, comfortable, and very clean making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. All the bedrooms were very spacious, the beds were very comfortable and one bedroom had a balcony off of it to enjoy my morning coffee. We enjoyed watching the sunset from the hot tub. We also brought our dog and didn’t have to worry, the property is fenced in. We would happily stay there again. Highly recommend.

Perfect Mountain Escape
The Gathering Place was BEAUTIFUL and a perfect mountain getaway for our NC vacation. The tree lined mountain views are breathtaking. There is plenty of room inside and out for large groups. It is cozy yet incredibly spacious with room to mingle and have conversations indoors and outside on the expansive wrap around deck. The kitchen is well stocked and has everything we needed and more. It is also a perfect location just being minutes from the quaint town of Burnsville. There are adorable shops, restaurants, bars and breweries to explore right down the road from the cabin. We LOVED everything about this place and would come again. Thank you!!

All the comforts of home with amazing views!
Cozy, immaculately clean, stunning views and lots of fun activities! We appreciated all the details in this cabin and the hot tub was a huge plus! Plenty of room to spread out (3 levels) in a very peaceful area. Cute little town close by with hiking trails in the area! Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent family gathering place
This place checks every box! There is adequate room for activities for folks of all ages. Lots of places to wander and enjoy the mountains via car, and hiking. Lots of information provided about local restaurants, places to see, etc. it has one of the best stocked kitchens in terms of of equipment and storage space. I'll have absolutely no reservations about using this location for any kind of gathering friends or family! If you want a quiet retreat to just hang out or a base place to explore the local area,- including the Blue ridge parkway Asheville and the Biltmore, etc, and the farmers market is absolutely amazing.
