Sensational Waterfall Retreat- Hot Tub, Family/Pet Friendly near Asheville

Enjoy incredible treehouse views alongside a waterfall and overlooking a tranquil river in this this one of a kind luxurious 3BR/1BA cabin centrally situated near Asheville, between all of the must-see destinations and the wealth of outdoor trails, waterfalls and adventures in the region. After a day of fun come home to a lavishly furnished cabin with incredible outdoor space to enjoy. Climb the waterfall beside the house to see an enchanted fairy tree stump, surrounded by wildflowers, ferns and birds. Play in the mountain stream and catch fish or crawdads. Read and enjoy the views on the front porch swing. As evening falls, head to the waterfall deck to relax in the hot tub overlooking the waterfall, light up the grill in the yard, have a beer on the back deck while enjoying amazing river views, nap in the hammock overlooking the river, do yoga on the deck over the waterfall, roast marshmallows in the custom stone fire pit under the clear and starry mountain sky! No matter what your preferred way of relaxing is, we have you covered! Stay long enough and you can enjoy them all. The children's room is full of so many games, toys, movies, books, art supplies, etc. that they will entertain themselves for hours, allowing adults some time to relax. Enjoy hiking, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, apple picking, dining out, zip lining, horseback riding, golfing, antiquing, brewery tours, pontoon boat tours, a working farm tour, barn dancing, an Amish store, fresh cheese from a goat farm, mountain biking, motorcycle riding, gem mining, a winery tour or dining out ALL within minutes from this centrally located home nestled between Asheville, Hendersonville, Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, Blue Ridge Parkway, Black Mountain, DuPont and Pisgah Forests.

Another great way to enjoy the outdoors is a guided bass fishing adventure on beautiful Lake Lure. Carolina Trophy Bass Guides offers 1/2 day and full day trips. Contact Mark Cook at 828-329-3517 or check out their web page at https://carolinastrophybassguides.com/tours

The house is very well stocked (toiletries, paper products, linens, etc) so you can pack lightly! We know planning a vacation in a region with so many offerings can be overwhelming, so we provide all guests a list of top recommendations for things to do during your stay. I am also happy to help you with specific questions you may have and to provide recommendations based on your individual needs/preferences. I pride myself on helping guests with any support/needs they have planning their trip. We also stock materials from the Visitor's Center, so planning your stay is made even easier.

*Note* There are 50 wooden stairs to access the bottom level of the cabin. Guests can either enter through the bottom door into the master bedroom, which requires a flight of stairs inside to ascend to the main floor, or continue up to the main entrace up stone stairs. There is no accessibility for those who cannot make the climb.

*Security camera facing road.

Thank you for reading to the end.

Peaceful and Relaxing
Wow! This cabin is simply special. Yes, many steps to access the cabin but the trek is worth the reward. The outside spaces are just perfect. We spent each morning on the side deck off the kitchen drinking our coffee and listening to the creek across the street and watching and listening to the birds. The swing on the front side was quite enjoyable and we even witnessed several hummingbirds. The hot tub was such a hit especially after hiking. Although we enjoyed it a few mornings when the temps were in the low 60’s. The grill was a nice touch along with the cool fireplace next to the equally cool stream flowing down. You could feel the temp difference by just being near the stream. Inside you will find many details and a well stocked kitchen and bathroom. The beds were comfortable and plenty of blankets -- if needed. Bathroom equally stocked with plenty of well appointed towels. The bar is set quite high for kids as the kids room had lots of dress ups, toys, games, etc. For the adults there are games and plenty of books. Along with coffee and coffee grinder if necessary. While we did spend several days "in", we did venture to Asheville, Lake Lure and Chimney Top all quite convenient to the cabin. You won't be disappointed saying at this gem!

Amazing!
Hollee and her husband were amazing host. The property is exactly as described if not better. Our family had a great time during our stay. Everything that was needed was available and then some. Lots of great toys for kids to play with. Unfortunately, my family and I got sick during our stay. (The flu and had absolutely nothing to do with the property) Hollee very quick to offer recommendations of pharmacies, urgent cares and local stores. They even offered for us to extend our stay if we did not feel well enough to leave. Hands down amazing host and beyond appreciative of the support we received during our stay. Our family will be planning another trip to this beautiful cabin and great location.

Awesome stay
Super comfy and fun house in a great location in the mountains. The outdoor area is amazing and so cool and shady. My kids (4 and 2) had a blast playing in the stream, roasting marshmallows and working their way through the toy closet, which has set the bar impossibly high for future house rentals with them. We loved this house!

Beautiful Hidden Gem
We had a wonderful stay at this whimsical little getaway! It was very cute and well stocked. Our kids really loved the little rock slide in the creek, the hot tub, and the place had great toys and books out for our use. Chimney Rock and Lake Lure are less than 15 minutes away! Our only complaint was it wasn’t quite as clean as we’d hoped. There was evidence that the shams in the master were not cleaned before our arrival and some of the kitchen items were a little dirty (there is no dishwasher so I assume we were relying on the pervious tenants dishwashing skills). Though I’m sure these are mostly cleaning crew issues. The owners clearly love this place and so did we!

Quiet and beautiful, perfect place to stay for our honeymoon!! Host was the most responsive we’ve ever had! Only complaint is we had to wash our dishes which wasn’t a big deal except that we had to rely on the previous tenants to do a good job washing theirs and ended up having to wash some poorly washed mugs and silverware. Other than that I cannot recommend the host and locations enough!!

Mountain Paradise!
My husband and I had such a magnifcent stay at Hollee's property! The property was impeccable and was the getaway we so much needed. The location was perfect (close enough to the small towns, hiking trails, etc., yet far enough to make feel you are escaping the hustle and bustle of life). Waking up to the sounds of birds chirping and the babbling brook was so serene. Truly a mountain paradise where you can simply escape. Hollee thought of everything in making this the perfect stay, and she was a wonderful and responsive host. Look so forward to being able to return and would highly recommend this property. Thanks so much, Hollee, for a perfect getaway!

Loved the property. There is a very nice and well kept outdoor area with a small grill, firepit, hot tub, and picnic table. We ate outside every evening and relaxed in the hot tub. I loved the small touches by the host with good quality paper towels, small areas for toiletries. The lighting outside was also a nice touch. The bedding was very comfortable as well.

Momma’s getaway!
This is our 2nd time staying at this property. The first time was an adventure and reconnecting with each other! This time it was all about DOING NOTHING!! It was marvelous. My partner and I are both busy working momma's, there is nothing like mid day uninterrupted naps, day drinking, Netflix binging, snack foods, cuddled up in the precious cabin! I 100% will stay here again in the summer to have a family trip with the kiddos to the lake! Hollee is so amazing and will answer any off the wall question to make your stay so much easier!! We are looking forward to our summer trip in a few month!! Thank you for sharing the amazing home with us!!
