This home is fitted with everything you need for an enjoyable mountain stay. Its quiet with a kitchen that has everything you need to cook, if you choose to, but is within a few miles of Black Mountain restaurants if you want to eat out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to come back. One of the better VRBO experiences I've had.

Warm, welcoming, comfortable...one of the best.
Highly recommended! This was one of the warmest and most welcoming places I've stayed at. The house was spacious and comfortable, and the amenities (a welcoming note, provisions in the fridge, muffins, coffee...) were outstanding. Communication with the host was easy and clear. I wish we could have stayed longer, and would gladly come back again.

EXCELLENT GETAWAY IN THE WOODS!
Very beautiful home in the woods. Had everything we needed and then some for my wife, my two young boys, and myself to get away for a while and spend some quality time. together. A fully equipped kitchen, 3 double beds (one of them is a water bed), TV, internet, hiking trails on the property, board games, nice front and back porch to sit outside and enjoy nature, just to name a few of the great things about this house. We also enjoyed the Rodeo down the street in Old Fort on July 3rd and the fireworks that followed! Kayla was always quick to respond to any questions we had through the VRBO messenger. Thank you for letting us use your beautiful home for a couple of days to get away from it all!!

Great stay in Western NC!
This was a really nice stay just 30 mins West of Asheville where my family and I had to be this last weekend on short notice. It was convenient to book, check in/out, and everything was very pleasant during our stay. I personally love little neighborhoods like this that are tucked away and private, especially in the mountains. 5/5 stars!

Quiet area with a perfect front porch near Asheville
Sitting on the front porch of this cabin was perfect! You can hear all of creation chirping. The fridge was stocked full of eggs and bacon as well as other goodies for a great breakfast. Also, you are only a short 30min drive from Asheville. A great place at a great price. Would definitely visit again!

Everything you could ever want
You will not find a better stocked house anywhere. From eggs in the refrigerator to a wonderful waterbed. We enjoy having family gathering there, plenty of room and a very complete kitchen.

Beautiful setting, with goodies in the fridge
We have stayed in rentals from Maine to Florida and this was by far the best equipped. It had more choices for coffee than Starbucks. Breakfast items were in the refrigerator, with a delicious pumpkin roll ready to eat (ignore the scales in the bathroom). Speaking of the bathroom, it was like a spa with a Jacuzzi tub, seated soaps and oil lamps. Beautiful location, away from the road , with a wooded driveway.

Feels like home!
Kayla went above and beyond to make our stay welcoming and comfortable. I had indicated that we would be Apple Picking prior to checking in and she had a fresh Apple Pie waiting for us when we arrived! We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast items left for us as well. An overall great experience and we hope to come back to visit soon!
