Locally Owned & Operated! Come See the Difference.

Come see the difference of a home owned and operated by locals. This is our only rental and we take great pride in it. Enjoy a relaxing vacation at our beautiful home nestled in the unique city of Hendersonville. Sit on the front porch and watch the White Squirrel's frolic in the yard or gather around the piano on the enclosed back porch. The house sits on two acres of land to watch nature or for the children to play. Nestled near town, White Squirrel Hill will give you the best of both worlds. It is located in a nice neighborhood that is close to downtown Hendersonville where you can find local restaurants, breweries, family-owned shops and The Ecusta Trail. A lifesaver that many of our guests value is our enclosed garage as well as two paved driveway. This can come in handy during rainy days. This feature along with many others are what keep our guests coming back on their yearly vacations. There are many personal touches throughout our home to make you feel welcome. We strive for you to feel at home. At White Squirrel Hill you'll only be approximately 30 minutes from Brevard, Asheville, Chimney Rock, and the Tyron Equestrian. Hendersonville is known for apples! During the fall, you can pick your own at one of the many apple orchards that can be found in Henderson County. If you chose to venture to Asheville you will find many great breweries filled with craft beverages. In our area there are also many opportunities to explore nature. DuPont state forest is a great way to see beautiful waterfalls and gorgeous views of the Western North Carolina mountains. If you have any special request please let us know and we will do our best to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. Come stay at White Squirrel Hill and see what all Hendersonville and the surrounding area has to offer!

The home was very welcoming, close to downtown, and we loved watching the white squirrels. The peppermint bear scavenger hunt in Hendersonville was a lot of fun.

We enjoyed staying at this house. It had everything we needed and the owners were very kind to have fruit and cinnamon buns and extra toiletries on hand. It is very close to downtown Hendersonville and easy drive to Asheville, Chimney Rock and other places.

This house was very comfortable and cozy! The neighborhood is extremely quiet.

What an awesome stay that we had at this house! The property is so spacious and well kept. The house is stocked with everything that might be needed. The three days that we stayed in Hendersonville were mostly spent relaxing at this lovely home.

Unfortunately it was a work trip and we did not get to fully enjoy the home - out at 7:30 am and back at 9 pm. Great little dinner - The Moose Café about a block and a half away. Location super convenient.

Loved our stay at this property. We felt at home when at the house. Located in a good area for exploring the area. Very peaceful and quiet at night for getting a restful night's sleep. Many great restaurants within a short distance. We would definitely stay here again on future visits to Hendersonville. Thanks for a great vacation and offering your place. Hope to see you again soon

Convenient and nice home close to I-26

A great place for our friends weekend. Home had everything we needed. The upper driveway was most convenient for unloading/loading. A nice quiet street, and we most appreciated the convenient location to I-26 for getting to our favorite shops, restaurants, and the apple orchard.

Visiting Hendersonville

Our stay was just wonderful. The place was welcoming and adorable. The house is off the main road enough to be in a quiet neighborhood, but close enough to be in town in under a few minutes. Main Street is less than a few minutes away. We really enjoyed our visit. I’ll definitely book this place when my Family comes to visit me while I’m moving into my New home. Thank you for everything 😊😊

Wonderful family home

This was a perfect set up for my family over Thanksgiving weekend. The house easily accommodated four adults and two children. Very well appointed and maintained with a convenient location. The toys were a big hit! Christy is an amazing host -- very prompt in responding and also very accommodating to our scheduling challenges. We will be back!

Clean, quiet, lovely home conveniently located near town

We immediately felt right at home here with plenty of space for our group of 4 adults, 3 kids and a baby. Everything we needed was available and then some. Christy has gone above and beyond accommodations. The ping pong and play closet were both a bonus for all the kids and even though we didn’t see a single live squirrel, we still enjoyed the quiet outdoors. It’s a beautiful location and we’d be more than happy to stay again and would recommend to anyone else going to the area.

All the comforts of home!

We had a great stay at White Squirrel Hill. We were in town for a weekend of bike racing and the garage was the biggest convenience, especially since it was raining and muddy. There is so much room in this house and the kitchen is truly, fully stocked with any pot, pan, dish and utensil you might need. Christy sent us information about the address and instructions well in advance. She also had the little things you normally only see in a hotel...soaps, shampoo/conditioner, coffee, etc. The location is just minutes away from downtown as well as the highway and so convenient. We come to Hendersonville every year for racing and hope (as long as we can keep this place a secret) to stay here again.

Great place!!

We love your home, it truly is a home away. So close to shops and restaurants as well. This was a straight shot from Charleston, took I26 to the Hendersonville exit. The house was in a quiet neighborhood. The home had everything you need. We brought my Aunt who is 93 and she easily got around. We also brought my son who is 9 months and there were even age appropriate toys for him and a high chair. There was some lovely snacks left by the owners for us. We visited the Biltmore which was about a 20 minute drive. We really enjoyed ourselves. Family friendly! We also saw some beautiful white squirrels playing in the yard. Highly recommend!

Great VRBO, but issues with the owner

Both toilets overflowed during routine bathroom usage and I was blamed for it. Sewage leaked out of the shower drain as well. I think they might have a plumbing issue when multiple people use the bathroom at the same time. I was than charged $200 for something that was their plumbing issue. The property other than this incident was great. The garages are a great addition to the property for additional safety and the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. I would stay again if I wasn’t going to be charged an extra $200 for something that wasn’t my fault.

Absolutely delightful home :-)

We had a wonderful time in this comfortable and clean home. We loved the nostalgic decor and closest full of toys for my kids. we played basketball and ping pong too. It was a great "home base" for hanging out in Hendersonville and Flat Rock. We are already planning to come back next year.
