Pet-Friendly Chalet, Tucked in the Trees and 3 Minutes to Downtown

The Pet Friendly - Berne Chalet newly updated 3/2 vacation rental is tucked in the tree tops, yet just 5 minutes from the middle of Asheville! It is a 2-story duplex, the Upper Berne is a 2/1 open floor plan. The Lower Berne is a 1 bed/1 bath with a screened in porch for warm weather and a fenced-in yard for pets. Each unit has its own fully stocked kitchen and entrance. This listing is for the entire Full Berne (Upper & Lower) There is not an interior door connecting the two units.

A large front porch on the upper level with a grill, table and chairs and sitting area as well as an additional side porch add to a tree house feel. Perfect for enjoying your morning coffee while watching the sun rise over the mountains. We supply all linens, towels and robes.

The Berne Chalet has the location you want when visiting Asheville, with the feeling of being far away from it all on a hillside, yet literally a 3 minute drive to downtown Asheville. There are three spacious bedrooms (2 king and 1 queen beds) and two bathrooms. The upper Berne features a 75" smart TV with Roku in the living room. All bedrooms have Roku TVs as well. Both kitchens are fully stocked with coffee, tea, condiments, spices, pots & pans, dishes and utensils and more. A washer/dryer is in the queen bedroom closet.

There is a handicap accessible ramp up to the upper level deck and there is parking for 2 vehicles at the house. Guest parking is a short walk away.

You'll receive cookies from Judy's Well-Bred Bakery & Café as well as a $10 gift certificate and treats for your pup.

Comfy Chalet
We loved our weekend at the Berne Chalet. Beautiful surroundings, fresh ground coffee, and bakery perks. What more do you need? Maybe a huge TV screen, jigsaw puzzles, vintage vinyl records, and comfy beds? And a bear sighting! Yes please!

An Ideal Location - So Close to Downtown!
What a wonderful weekend getaway for our family and two dogs at Berne Chalet! It truly feels like you are up in the mountains yet only minutes to downtown! We enjoyed the top and bottom floors, with enough room for four adults and two dogs… room to spare really. The beds are extremely comfortable and the living space has plenty of seating. The kitchen is stocked with all you need to cook a nice meal, with a few condiments and spices available as well. Coffee and cookies await… and dog treats for the pups. The outdoor porch was a favorite of ours… we enjoyed our morning coffee and the cool mountain air. We even saw a black bear! Berne Chalet is so convenient to downtown but is a beautiful respite from the busy crowds. We enjoyed wandering the shops one day and then river tubing the next with Zen tubing. We hope to visit again! Judy was a terrific host and went out of her way to help us log in to the tv to watch the first weekend of college football! Thank you for a beautiful place to make some family memories!

Nestled on a hill surrounded by trees. Comfortable and well appointed. The front porch was a gem for morning coffee and overall relaxing. You had the feeling you were far away from civilization, yet, there was a grocery store and gas station 0.2 miles away!

My Friends and I enjoyed our experience. They thought of everything you may need for a comfortable stay. From robes to delicious cookies from their bakery. The location is perfect! Tucked away up in the peaceful woods, yet close to all of the activities Ashville has to offer. I will definitely stay again.

We loved our stay at this clean and ideally located chalet. The location given up privacy for us to appreciate the mountain air, and enough proximity to get to everywhere we wanted to go in less than 15 minutes. We rented both the upstairs and downstairs and were very pleased with the amenities and cleanliness. Also love the nice touches that were geared towards our dog. The owners were very responsive to our questions. The only suggestion I would give is pay attention to the directions. It was rough to find the first time 😁

Excellent winter holiday!
We stayed for a Christmas holiday in Asheville. We rented both upper and lower Berne. We took our three dogs. The units are great for family and dogs. Upper unit has two bedrooms, 1 bath and enough family room seating for five. Dinner table can sit six. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, spices etc. we have never had such a well stocked kitchen - thank you! Also set up well for dogs with a fuzzy bed, small water bowls and treats. This unit has the upstairs deck that is gated and safe for pups. Also a small deck off the dining room. There is a sloped walkway downstairs to parking and the entrance of the lower unit. Lower unit is a small one-bedroom apartment. Again well stocked. This one does not have a dishwasher. Or washer/dryer. Both are located upstairs. Again small water bowl and dog towels. This unit has a side screened in patio that leads to the fenced in space for dogs. Big enough and perfect to let the pups out for a potty break. The location is about 20 mins to Biltmore and less than 10 to the downtown area. Excellent location. Clean. Super well stocked. Enough closet space. Robes. They really do all the nice touches to make it an enjoyable stay. We were there for Christmas and the tree was up and lots of lovely decorations. Thank you! Highly recommend!

This property worked out great for us. My eldest daughter brought her to mid-size dogs and stayed on the bottom level while the rest of us were upstairs. It was easy for us to move between the two levels. The location was also convenient - close to downtown, restaurants, et al.

Beautiful, secluded home close to downtown Asheville
We rented the whole house - the Upper Berne and Lower Berne. Both places were very clean; each kitchen was very well-stocked (the best I've experienced when renting a VRBO); the house was well-appointed with everything one needed during their stay. The location was perfect - nestled in the woods, but a five-ten minute drive to downtown Asheville. The outdoor porches were an added bonus. I would highly recommend this place to folks visiting Asheville. The owners were very responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable - the free cookies upon arrival set the mood for our vacation!

Such a great location
We enjoyed it. We rented the entire property. My wife and I enjoyed the smaller unit on the bottom floor and it was awesome. Nice and cozy. My “kids” (22 and 19) shared the upstairs property. At that age, they needed their own space. But, it also allowed us to remain close to each other. All the best restaurants (and Downtown Asheville) were literally 5 to 10 minutes away. Plus, we had no trouble getting an Uber for dinner in the evening if we were having drinks. A great property and a good time had by all!

The best of all worlds!
This property is amazing if you are looking for a clean, pet friendly, well-run place with the feeling of being in nature while also just being minutes away from downtown Asheville. The owners/managers are incredibly communicative and responsive. The water was turned off for a brief bit of time when some construction work was being done nearby and they were so on it- answering our call right away and following up with us in minutes about the status of the work. There were so many nice touches for our pets including their own towels, food/water bowl, blankets for couches, etc. Highly recommend a stay here!
