• Each cabin at Scenic Wolf is large and multi-leveled with upper and lower decks located over steep drop-offs (providing the wonderful views!). If stairs or a fear of heights are a concern for anyone in your party, please ask a Vacation Coordinator about your cabin's specific layout to ensure the comfort of all guests!
• A clear cell signal at Scenic Wolf can be hit-or-miss. Each cabin has a landline phone and free wireless Internet to keep you connected.
• Seasonal Gas Fireplaces are not operational between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
• Travel Insurance Recommended. Due to the location of this home, any inclement weather in winter may render it unreachable. We highly recommend guests consider travelers insurance for this property as there are no refunds for weather.
• Ski Resort Changes. Please note, Wolf Ridge Ski Resort has been sold, and rebranded to Hatley's Point by new ownership. The resort is currently under renovations, and expected to open at a later date to be determined.

Great views and very clean property!

Great views and very clean... kind of out near nothing so bring everything you need as we found out the hard way. No condiments at the lodge so if grilling bring your own!

Wow, this place is an absolute gem!

Wow, what an absolute gem! This Airbnb exceeded our expectations in every way. The photos are stunning but trust us, they don't do justice to the breathtaking view that awaits you. The moment we stepped into the property, we were blown away by the panoramic views that seemed to stretch on forever. The hosts have done an incredible job of creating a cozy and inviting space that feels like a true home away from home. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the comfortable furnishings to the well-equipped kitchen. But the real pièce de résistance is the view. Whether you're sipping coffee in the morning or enjoying a glass of wine in the evening, the ever-changing mountain views will leave you in awe. If you're looking for a truly special place to stay, look no further. This Airbnb is a must-book, and we can't wait to return!

We had a great experience.

We had a great experience. We’re from Miami and wanted to escape the spring break crowd from Miami. We disconnected from the city and were able to explore the private property along with its surrounding neighborhoods. Thanks for everything!
David M - Posted: 4/23/2024 - Stayed from: 3/24/2024 to 3/29/2024

All in all, my family had a wonderful time and would come back.

We had a great stay! We had a small problem with the fireplace upon arrival but they made it right for us and were friendly about it. If I’m being picky, I wish they would have had wine glasses but we made due. A tip for future renters is to be sure and get your provisions before settling in. It’s pretty far from a decent grocery store. All in all, my family had a wonderful time and would come back. Thank you!

Nice cabin with great views.

Nice cabin with great views. Not really any places to walk the dogs. Very secluded and kind of far from civilization. Close to the ski resort but had no snow (December).

They provided us with the most beautiful scenic view of the mountains!

The high-ceiling windows in the living room were gorgeous! They provided us with the most beautiful scenic view of the mountains! We also loved the balconies on each level!

Beautiful Mountain Retreat

Plenty of space for my family of 5 to spread out. Very comfy living spaces. Very clean and well-stocked kitchen. The only downside is it's a 20-30+ min drive to any restaurant/store. However, we brought all our supplies with us, so just enjoyed staying in the cabin.

Fantastic place to call home

Thank you for a fantastic place to call home. The setting was perfect. What a joy to read with such a lovely view, although the super comfy couches led to a few naps instead of reading.. Will definitely be back and recommend it to my friends.

What a View!

Very well appointed cabin with all the necessary appliances. Spacious and pleasant with an incredible view of the nearby mountains. The road to get to the cabin is steep and challenging at night but the location is worth it! Perfect for up to 8 people looking for a relaxing stay.

Daniel N from Apex, NC - Posted: 5/13/2020

Awesome views and changing vistas by the hour!! Loved the peaceful environment and comfortable conditions. Great house for mixed group plus families. Nice room separation. We had an awesome stay far away from it all!
Colleen J from Bluffton, SC - Posted: 11/6/2019

"We stayed over three nights in two cabins for a large family group of twenty-seven. We are celebrating our mother and grandmother's 80th birthday. We enjoyed family games, hiking, some fun pranks as well as some amazing meals together. Yesterday we went to the Biltmore and had a wonderful afternoon and evening. The weather has been cool and foggy and perfect for our stay. What fabulous memories our family has made here! Thanks for a beautiful home to celebrate such a wonderful event!"
Ann O from Chapin, SC - Posted: 10/16/2019

"Family Gathering from Eastern NC and KY - Great mid point. The views are wonderful and the cabin fantastic. Strongly recommend Mt. Mitchell if you feel like making the drive and climbing. Jenga on the picnic table was fun. Only found one or two ""Army-man"" easter eggs. Good luck in your search for more!"
Lisa H from Fayetteville, NC - Posted: 9/10/2019

We really enjoyed ourselves. Thankful for the snow at least one day of our stay. Great stay overall!!

"Lookout Lodge was perched high in the mountains and we literally had a great ""look"" at the mountain-scape around us. The lodge was a beautifully appointed log cabin with all of the amenities that anyone could ask for. Although 20-30 minutes from Asheville, the ride through the mountains and countryside made it seem less than that. Everything was perfect. Carolina Mornings Staff were very engaging and supportive throughout our stay. We look forward to visiting Asheville again and will stay with Carolina Mornings."
