For a Pet Friendly option, Larry-the Host, and the property were just right for us. It is filled with beautiful art, by the owners! We have stayed in more luxurious cabins, but for the VALUe, this is it! To hear the stream running outside in the brook, it was perfect.

Distance makes good neighbors
I don't like sharing a house with others -- particularly a guy who sat outside on his porch smoking -- I couldn't be on my deck, which was directly above his porch, during that time. He was a nice guy, and fortunately was only there one of my five nights. I would have been quite miserable had he stayed and continued to smoke there. Great location in terms of proximity to town, to Ashville and even close-by hikes.

When can we go back?
We LOVED this property. It gave our family the right space to enjoy each other’s company (& space away when we needed it). The creek was a blast for the kids and the location made it easy to get to so much. Book it ASAP. It’s a winner.

Charming and cozy coach house
Larry and Teresa are great hosts. Communication was always clear and courteous. The Ox Creek coach house is really charming and set in a great location. There are beautiful farms, deer, turkey in the immediate area, the blue ridge parkway is right around the corner, wonderful hiking is all over the area, and a great family owned restaurant, The Stoney Knob, is very close by. The accommodations in the coach house are very comfortable and easily housed our group of five. This was my first trip to the area and staying here made it enjoyable for everyone. I hope to come back again.

Nice family get-away
This is the first trip for my young boys to the mountains and we stayed here based on a recommendation from my parents. The unit was perfect for the boys (they slept in the loft) and there was plenty of room for them to play on the porch, there was even a baby gate attached to the steps! It was very clean and there was everything you could need already there. The creek that ran beside the house was perfect for the boys to play with their boats and discover the local "critters". It was very peaceful, very clean and very nicely equipped. The only thing that I regret is that we had to return home. I could see spending more time there soaking up the mountain air, walking the streets of the quaint town of Weaverville and riding along the Blue Ridge Parkway which is all within a very short distance.
